2012 FORD EDGE Complaints

MALFUNCTIONING DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS REMAINS WHEN DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. CAN DRAIN THE BATTERY. HAD THE SENSOR IN DRIVER'S DOOR REPLACE WHILE UNDER MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY. THE REPLACEMENT SENSOR IS NOW MALFUNCTIONING AND THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY.

ON TWO OCCASIONS IN THE LAST FOUR MONTHS MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE EDGE AND WHEN SHE PUSH DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL IT WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BOARD. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED SHE PUMPED THE BRAKES BUT STILL DID NOT HAVE BRAKES. MY MECHANIC IS GUESSING IT'S THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER SO WE ARE HAVING IT REPLACED.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR IS CONSTANTLY ON. I HAVE OPENED AND SHUT THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES AND EVEN TRIED TO DO WHAT SOME YOUTUBE VIDEOS HAVE SHOWN. DOME LIGHT SOMETIMES STAYS ON AFTER I PARK, SOMETIMES GOES OFF. I WILL HAVE A DEAD BATTERY AND PROBABLY ADDITIONAL COSTS UNLESS I WANT TO PAY $400+ TO FORD TO FIX THIS KNOWN ISSUE.

ALL DOORS LEAKING AT THE DOOR SEAL RETAINERS AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO REPAIR DUE TO POOR DESIGNED FLAW! ALL FORD CARS HAVING WATER CONDITIONS AND STILL ALLOWED TO SELL THIS DEFECTIVE CARS ! I AM A MASTER MECHANIC AND DIAGNOSED IT MY SELF ! THIS IS STRICTLY A FORD QUALITY ISSUE FOR ALL FORD EDGES OF ALL YEARS AND MOST LIKELY ALL THERE CARS HAVE A WATER ISSUE . AND IT IS MY EXPERIENCE THAT CAR DEALERS KNOW ABOUT IT AND DUE NOT ISSUE A REPAIR BECAUSE OF COST! IT IS A SAD DAY FOR AMERICAN PRODUCTS . FORUM CARS BUILT BETTER THAT THIS! BY MY EXPERIENCE

THE DRIVER DOOR AND REAR DRIVER DOOR "DOOR AJAR" NOTIFICATION'S DO NOT TURN OFF, EVEN WHEN THE DOORS ARE CLOSED. THIS CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY, AND THEN THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START LATER. THIS ALSO PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND CAN NOT SEEM TO BE RESOLVED, EVEN AFTER A MECHANIC CLEANED AND LUBRICATED THE DOOR LATCHES.

THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR CHIME WAS AUDIBLE AND THE ADVANCE TRAC WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER (HIXSON FORD OF MONROE, 6300 FRONTAGE RD, MONROE, LA 71202, (318) 388-3300) WAS CONTACTED, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES.

THERE HAS BEEN A SERVICE BULLETIN ISSUED FOR A 'DOOR AJAR' WARNING WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED CAUSED BY THE FAILURE OF THE DRIVERS DOOR LATCH. THIS DOES NOT GO OUT WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF. THIS RESULTS IN THE DOME LIGHT STAYING ON AND DRAINING THE BATTERY. NOT REPAIRING COULD RESULT IN THE INABILITY TO LOCK THE VEHICLE ELECTRONICALLY.
