2012 FORD EDGE Complaints

TAKATA RECALL POWER BRAKE BOOSTER BAD ON MY 2012 FORD EDGE BASICALLY, THE CAR HAS A DELAYED HARD STOP.

DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON. DOORS WON'T LOCK THE ENTIRE TIME I'M DRIVING. STARTED A FEW WEEKS AGO, ONLY HAPPENED OCCASIONALLY. NOW ISSUE IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT.

IN APRIL 2016, WE STARTED EXPERIENCING AN ISSUE WITH THE DRIVERS DOOR LATCH NOT CONNECTING AND OUR DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYING ON. WE WOULD MANUALLY HAVE TO REOPEN THE LATCH TO CLOSE THE DOOR BUT THIS STILL DIDN'T ALWAYS MAKE THIS DOOR AJAR LIGHT DO OUT. THERE WERE TIMES WE WOULD HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR UP TO 5 TIMES TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OUT AND FEEL THAT THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. IT WAS WORSE ON A TRIP AT THE END OF APRIL TO FLORIDA IN WHICH WE WERE UNABLE TO GET THIS TO HAPPEN AND COULDN'T GET OUR INTERIOR LIGHTS TO GO OUT SINCE IT WAS TELLING US THE DOOR WAS STILL OPEN. THIS ISSUE WOULD HAPPEN WHILE PARKED OR DRIVING. THE LIGHT WOULD BE OUT WHEN LEAVING THE DRIVEWAY AND THEN COME ON WHILE ON THE ROAD! WE HAD THIS CHECKED THREE TIMES, FIRST TWO UNSUCCESSFUL AND THE THIRD WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A BROKEN DOOR LATCH AND WASN'T COVERED SO WE HAD IT REPAIRED AT THE COST OF $329.85! THEN I HEAR THERE ARE RECALLS ON OTHER FORD MODELS BUT THE EDGE WAS NOT ON THE LIST AND IT IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE THAT IS LISTED AND DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL OF MANY OTHER FORD VEHICLES!

DOOR AJAR WARNING WILL NOT SHUT OFF WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS CAUSES DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON CAUSING DANGEROUS CONDITION WHILE REVERSING AT NIGHT AND KILLING THE BATTERY WHILE PARKED OVER NIGHT. THE "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING WILL SOUND WHILE DRIVING, AND THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

WHEN WE SHUT THE DRIVERS DOOR WE GET A DOOR AJAR LIGHT.IT REMAINS ON EVEN AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO SHUT THE DOOR. AND WHEN IT IS PARKED AND LOCKED THE LIGHTS WILL FLASH AND THE REAR HATCH WILL OPEN , AND THE HATCH HAS OPENED WHEN THE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN WHEN I SAY DRIVEN I MEAN DRIVING DOWN THE HI-WAY VERY UNSAFE!!

CAR MOTOR LOST POWER DURING HIGH WAY, I WAS PASSING OTHER CARS AND IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, I ALMOST CRASH AND PUT MY FAMILY AND OTHER IN A VERY HIGH RISK BECAUSE THE CAR MOTOR JUST DIE WHILE DRIVE 7O MILES PER HOUR. MY FAMILY AND I ARE STILL IN SHOCK!!!! I KEEP READING ABOUT WHAT COULD BE WRONG, I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE AND THEY RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM VERY QUICK, SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE, FORD SHOULD FIX THIS UNDER A RECALL, MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY (51K MILES) AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FIX AS WELL. SOMEBODY IS GOING TO GET HURT, HELP FIX THIS PLEASE!

THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT CONTINUES TO ACTIVATE EVENTHOUGH MY DOOR IS CLEARLY CLOSED. THE PASSENGER SIDE WAS PREVIOUSLY SERVICED AND NOW THE DRIVER "DOOR AJAR" IS ACTIVATED. THE PROBLEM IS THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN "DOOR AJAR" IS ACTIVATED AND I HAVE VERY SMALL CHILDREN. VERY DANGEROUS! I HAVE RECENTLY DISCOVERED THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL BY FORD.

THE SENSOR FOR THE DOOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS NOT WORKING. THE PANEL TELLS ME THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. I HAVE TO MANUALLY LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES OR CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES HARD IN ORDER FOR THE SENSOR TO GO OFF. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE EDGES. I DO NOT HAVE 5OO DOLLARS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK AFTER CAR IS IN MOTION AND THIS COULD BE A POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE WHILE PEOPLE ARE TRAVELING IN THIS VEHICLE. ALSO WITH THE REMOTE, SOMETIMES LOCKING THE CAR IS AN ISSUE. COULD POTENTIALLY DRAIN THE BATTERY. THANK YOU. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR INDICATOR INTERMITTENTLY WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THE DOOR IS CLOSED. IT WILL UNLOCK ALL THE DOORS AND SAY "SHIFT TO PARK". THE DOORS UNLOCKING AND NOT STAYING LOCKED IS DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WITH CHILDREN! IN LOOKING ON THE INTERNET THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM THAT FORD NEEDS TO RECALL AND FIX.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND MADE A BEEPING NOISE. IN ADDITION, THE SHIFT TO PARK AND INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS NOT ABLE TO DIM THE WARNING LIGHTS. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONER CONTINUOUSLY BLEW OUT HOT AIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.
