2011 FORD EDGE Complaints

ENGINE SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND ACCELERATOR DID NOT FUNCTION. NEEDED A NEW THROTTLE BODY MOTOR ASSEMBLY. FORD ESTABLISHED "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" IN LIEU OF A RECALL FOR OTHJER FORD MODELS BUT THE EDGE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN SUCH.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. THE DOORS WON'T LOCK DUE TO THIS. SAFETY HAZARD FOR EVERYONE IN THE VEHICLE

I HAVE THE INFAMOUS "DOOR ALWAYS AJAR" PROBLEM ON MY FORD EDGE. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE THE DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY THAT GETS CORRODED AND STOPS INDICATING THE DOOR IS CLOSED. WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION, THE LOCKS WON'T LOCK, POSING A HAZARD IN A ACCIDENT, IMO. IF THIS IS AT NIGHT, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON AND THIS COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE THE DRIVER TO BE STARTLED AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. IF IT IS PARKED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF AND DRAINS THE BATTERY, POSSIBLY STRANDING THE DRIVER IN AN UNFRIENDLY AREA. I LOVE THIS CAR BUT I CAN'T TRUST IT OR DRIVE IT UNTIL IT IS FIXED. THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND IT IS OF THEIR OWN MAKING AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT IS UNACCEPTABLE. THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME A CHANCE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS AND FOR YOUR WORK AT KEEPING THE PUBLIC SAFE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STOPPING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHUT OFF WHILE THE SHIFT INTO PARK ERROR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT INTO PARK AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS OPERATED IN ORDER TO PARK THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CALLED BOB BOYD FORD DEALER AT 740-654-1122 WHERE THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT THE PRICE FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHEN USING THE BRAKES ON AN ICY ROAD THE ABS SIGNAL CAME ON, THEN THE BRAKES WENT COMPLETELY DOWN TO THE FLOOR BOARD. THE CAR HAD NO BRAKES. THE BRAKES ANY OTHER TIME HAS A FULL PEDAL. THIS HAS OCCURRED TWICE IN THE LAST FEW DAYS. LUCKILY THIS HAPPENED ON OUR DEAD END STREET AND NOT ON A HIGHWAY.

"DRIVER DOOR AJAR" LIGHT REMAINS LIT AFTER CLOSING. NO OBVIOUS PHYSICAL DEFECT. DOME/INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ILLUMINATED, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK EVEN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS UNDERWAY. CENTER DISPLAY REMAINS POWERED/ILLUMINATED WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND DOORS ARE CLOSED, CAUSING TOTAL DISCHARGE OF THE BATTERY.

DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON FOR A WHILE AFTER YOU START DRIVING. DOORS WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AND IF YOU LOCK THEM THEY WILL AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK WHEN DRIVING. WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE AND YOU GO TO LOCK IT, THE HORN SOUNDS TWICE INDICATING THE DOOR IS NOT SHUT, AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON FOR A WHILE. REAL PAIN. FORD NEEDS TO GET THIS FIGURED OUT AND RECALL THESE DEFECTIVE VEHICLES.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT WON'T SHUT OFF. I'M BLINDED AT NIGHT WHEN I NEED TO MOVE THE CAR SINCE THE LIGHTS ARE ON. MY BATTERY IS DRAINED DUE TO THE LIGHTS REMAINING ON. I USE MY VEHICLE AT NIGHT SO THIS HAS ME VERY WORRIED TO BE STRANDED. MY DOORS DON'T LOCK. FOR NEEDS TO RECALL. THANK YOU.

DOOR AJAR ISSUE. ALREADY KILLED ONE BATTERY. ALSO IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I'VE HAD TO DRIVE SEVERAL TIMES WHEN IT'S DARK OUT AND THE LIGHTS INSIDE THE VEHICLE WILL NOT SHUT OFF. NOT GOING TO PAY ALMOST 500 DOLLARS TO HAVE THIS FIXED WHEN I HEAR OF TONS OF PEOPLE FIXING IT, FOR THE ISSUE TO COME RIGHT BACK WITH A NEW PART.
