2012 FORD EDGE Complaints

AT 46,000 MILES THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR SENSOR ISN'T OPERATING PROPERLY. WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT, THE SENSOR THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON UNTIL YOU GET TO MORE THAN 15MPH. IT ALSO CAUSES BEEPING FROM THE WARNING INDICATOR TELLING YOU TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK. THIS SENSOR IS PART OF THE ENTIRE LATCH ASSEMBLY & NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AFTER 36,000 MILES. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING AS EACH TIME THE SENSOR THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN AND YOU COME TO A STOP, THE WARNING INDICATOR BEEPS AND SAYS TO SHIFT INTO PARK.

THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR CENSOR WOULD NOT GO OFF DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE DOOR WAS ACTUALLY CLOSED. THIS CAUSED MY DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON, THE CAR SYMBOL TO STAY ILLUMINATED ON THE PANEL, THE DOORS TO STAY UNLOCKED, AND THE WARNING TONE TO SOUND WHILE DRIVING. ALL OF THESE ISSUES OCCUR WHILE STATIONARY AND WHILE IN MOTION. I HAD THE PAR REPLACED AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR $387 AND AFTER ONE YEAR AND TWO WEEKS THE PROBLEM HAS STARTED TO REOCCUR IN THE SAME FASHION.

VEHICLE STALLING WHILE DRIVING AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, PULL OVER TURN OFF AND RESTART, AND THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY. JUST LIKE SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS, APPEARS TO BE THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. REPLACED YESTERDAY IN 15 MIN, WAITING TO SEE IF PROBLEM IS RESOLVED

DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. SLAMMED DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES AND PROBLEMS STILL EXISTED. SPENT $454.00 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. ABOUT ONE MONTH LATER, PURCHASED 4 NEW TIRES($846.00). THEN, IN 2 WEEKS, TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR DEFAULT LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. HAD TO REPLACE TO THE TUNE OF $130.00.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST UNTIL THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED.THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR IS FAULTY AND SAYS MY DOOR IS OPEN WHILE IT IS CLOSED AND KEEP DOME LIGHT ON AND DOESN'T LOCK DOOR WHEN CLOSED AND USE THE KEYPAD OUTSIDE.

THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT GOES ON AFTER THE DOOR IS CORRECTLY CLOSED. THIS PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN WORSE OVER THE COURSE OF A COUPLE OF WEEKS. THE LIGHT NOW STAYS ON CONTINUOUSLY AND WHEN THE CAR SLOWS TO A STOP A YELLOW PANEL LIGHT TELLS THE DRIVER TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND MUST BE CORRECTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

OCTOBER OF 2014, I PURCHASED A 2012 FORD EDGE. ONLY A FEW MONTHS OF OWNING IT THE 'DOOR AJAR' WARNING WOULD CONTINUE TO SHOW UP, EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR WAS CLEARLY CLOSED. THIS HAS STILL CONTINUED, ITS NOW NOVEMBER 2015. I WENT TO A DEALERSHIP AT ONE POINT AND THEY SIMPLY LET ME KNOW HOW MUCH IT WILL BE TO FIX, NOT ONCE DID THEY MENTION THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM. FORD NEEDS TO TAKE NOTICE OF THIS ISSUE AND ACTUALLY SHOW THEY CARE FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. I HAVE RECENTLY REVIEWED MANY OTHERS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A HUGE RED FLAG THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR ANYMORE, WITH MY CHILD ESPECIALLY. THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK ONCE THE CAR IS IN DRIVE, THAT SCARES ME. ALSO SINCE THE DOOR DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE CLOSED ACCORDING TO THE COMPUTER, THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON, MAKING IT HARD TO START DRIVING AT NIGHT. I HAVE ALSO BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND ALREADY IT IS DRAINED DUE TO THE LIGHT STAYING ON FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING OFF. WHEN I PURCHASE A VEHICLE I NEED TO FEEL SAFE ABOUT MY CHOICE AND AT FIRST I DID, I LOVE MY CAR BUT NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT.

DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON AFTER SHUTTING THE DRIVERS DOOR. I HAVE TAKEN THIS IN 2 TIMES SINCE I HAD THIS UNDER WARRANTY TO HAVE IT FIX AND NOW IT HAS HAPPEN AGAIN. WITH THIS PROBLEM THESE ARE THE OTHER PROBLEMS CAUSED BY IT. ' THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CREATES A NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD. ' THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN SITTING IN A PUBLIC AREA AT NIGHT. ' THE FALSE DOOR AJAR SIGNALS PREVENTS THE DRIVER FROM RECOGNIZING A REAL DOOR AJAR SITUATION ... VERY DANGEROUS. ' THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. ' FAULTY LATCH. THE CAR HAS ONLY 33000 MILES ON IT AND THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THIS HAS HAPPEN. THIS SHOULD BE RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILL BY A FACULTY SENSOR THAT PEOPLE WILL START IGNORING BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK.
