I HAD TO HAVE MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LATCH REPLACED BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW HARD OR SOFT I SHUT THE DOOR IT WOULD INDICATE THE DOOR WAS OPEN AND WOULD DING WHILE DRIVING.

I AM CONSTANTLY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE LEFT REAR DOOR SENSOR TELLING ME THE DOOR IS AJAR. THIS HAPPENS WHETHER THIS DOOR HAS BEEN OPENED OR NOT.

DRIVER DOOR SENSOR FAULTY CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON, CONTINUOUS ALERTS THAT DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR WITH ALARM TO COME ON TELLING YOU TO PUT CAR IN PARK AND SHUT DOOR CAUSING A HAZARD. INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE ON DURING NIGHT TIME DRIVING.

THE DRIVER DOOR SENSOR STATES THE DOOR IS AJAR, ALTHOUGH IT IS CLOSED, REGISTERS OPEN. THE LATCH IS DEFECTIVE.THE DOOR AJAR WARNING SOUNDS ON THE DASH BOARD, DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AND DOORS DO NOT LOCK. DOOR HAS TO BE OPENED AND SLAMMED CLOSED MANY TIMES FOR THE WARNING TO GO OFF, BUT ONLY TEMPORARILY. HARD TO LOCK CAR, DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING, IN PARK, BASICALLY ANYTIME THE CAR IS ON. HAD THE ISSUE FIXED AT A DEALERSHIP - HAD TO PAY $494.00!! I SEE THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH MANY FORD EDGE OWNERS - FORD NEEDS TO GET THIS FIXED AND RECALL - UNSAFE!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AFTER EXITING THE FREEWAY.

IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT PLACED THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

DRIVER DOOR AJAR WHEN NOT. DOOR LOCKS DO NOT ENGAGE WHILE DRIVING, INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHICH DRAINS BATTERY AND UNABLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT DUE TO THIS. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. CAN NOT LOCK VEHICLE FROM OUTSIDE OR SET ALARM ALL INTERIOR LOCKS REMAIN ON AND DO NOT SHUT OFF

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, WHICH INDICATED THAT THE DOORS WERE STILL OPEN. ALSO, THE DOME LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE LATCH NEEDED TO BE CLEANED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

1) "SHIFT TO PARK" ERROR: HAVE TO CLICK THE SHIFTER ONE OR TWO TIMES TO CLEAR IT. UNTIL I DO, THE SEAT DOES NOT MOVE BACK FOR EXITING. 2) "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" ERROR: HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR, SOMETIMES ONLY ONCE, BUT USUALLY MANY TIMES IN ORDER TO CLEAR THE ERROR. 3) IF THE "DOOR" ERROR IS NOT CLEARED, THE "SHIFT" ERROR WILL APPEAR WHILE MOVING, WHENEVER I COME TO A STOP. ALSO, THE AUDIBLE SIGNAL WILL KICK IN. 4) AT TIMES THE DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK WITH THE TOUCH OF MY HAND. I SUSPECT WHEN I SHUT THE DOOR LAST, THE "DOOR" ERROR WAS PROBABLY IN EFFECT. SERVICE: I ACTUALLY TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER AND ALL THEY COULD TELL ME WAS THAT THE SHIFTER HAD TO BE REPLACED FOR $500. THEY COULDN'T EVEN FIND THE "DOOR" ERROR. I THINK THIS MERITS A RECALL NOTICE AND FORD SHOULD REPAIR THESE PROBLEMS AT NO OR REASONABLE COSTS.

THE DOOR AJAR COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. THE SAFETY OF MY CHILDREN ARE A CONCERN BECAUSE THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK AND YOU CAN'T MANUALLY LOCK THE DOORS. YOU CAN SLAM YOUR DOOR 100 TIMES BUT IT STILL STAYS ON. THIS HAPPENS WHEN MY VEHICLE IS PARKED AND IN MOTION.
