2012 FORD EDGE Complaints

2012 FORD EDGE DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON,DOORS WON'T LOCK AND WARNING BUZZER SOUNDS EVERY TIME I STOP. *TR

A FAULT IN THE DOOR LATCH ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS MALFUNCTIONING AND SENDS A SIGNAL THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. BESIDES BEING ANNOYING, I FEAR THE FACT THAT THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THEY COULD BE LOCKED MANUALLY, BUT I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN THAT CAN NOT LOCK THEM ON THEIR OWN. I FEAR THAT IF WE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT, THEY COULD BE THROWN FROM THE CAR DUE TO NOT HAVING THE DOORS LOCKED. AT THIS POINT I DO NOT EVEN WANT TO DRIVE MY CHILDREN ANYWHERE IN THIS VEHICLE. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE! *TR

A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT BEGAN STAYING ON WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED PROPERLY. THIS CAUSES THE LIGHTS TO STAY ON INSIDE THE CAR ALONG WITH THE ANNOYING BEEPING SOUND. WHAT REALLY CONCERNS ME IS THAT I HAVE MY DAUGHTER IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME AND BEING THAT THE DOORS WON'T LOCK AS THE LIGHT IS NOW ON CONTINUOUSLY, SHE WOULD BE ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR AT ANY TIME. JUST WAIT UNTIL THERE IS A MAJOR INJURY FROM THIS BEFORE BEING RECALLED, ISN'T THAT HOW IT USUALLY WORKS? *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED AND WILL NOT GO OFF EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS CLOSED . LIGHT IS DISTRACTING WHEN DRIVING. DOOR OPEN WARNING RELAY PART # MISW6169 IS BAD AND NEEDS REPLACING. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING IN MEXICO, I HIT A BLACK STEER STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AT NIGHT. IT WAS A FULL FRONTAL COLLISION. IT WRAPPED ITSELF AROUND THE COMPLETE FRONT AND BOTH SIDES OF MY VEHICLE BEFORE COMING UP ON THE HOOD. IT ALSO BROKE THE WINDSHIELD. NEITHER THE AIRBAGS NOR THE SIDE CURTAINS DEPLOYED. I HAD IT SENT TO A FORD DEALER, PER THE REQUEST OF FORD MOTOR COMPANY. THEY REPORTED THAT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM WAS WORKING JUST FINE. THAT'S VERY PECULIAR. THE FACT REMAINS THAT IN A FULL FRONTAL COLLISION THE AIRBAGS DID NOT WORK AND I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE TRAVELING IN THAT VEHICLE. I CALLED THE NHTSA ON 4/9/15 AT 1-888-327-4236 AND TALKED TO [XXX] WHO GAVE ME A COMPLAINT #10704792 AND SAID SOMEONE WOULD BE CONTACTING ME WITHIN 72 HOURS. NOBODY HAS CONTACTED ME TO THIS DAY.
