2012 FORD EDGE Complaints

ABOUT 90% OF THE TIME -- AT ALL SPEEDS OF 0-75 -- THE WARNING LIGHT SHOWS THE DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR, WHICH CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON, AND THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING IN THE CITY AND STOP AT A RED LIGHT -- ANYONE COULD OPEN THE DOOR AND GET INSIDE. WHEN THE DOME LIGHTS ARE ON, IT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY WHEN BACKING THE CAR. *TR

DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR, DOOR AJAR LIGHT SAYS ON. HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO TURN OFF AND SOME TIMES THAT DOES NOT EVEN WORK. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. *TR

MY DRIVERS DOOR APPEARS TO NOT BE CLOSING BUT I KNOW IT IS SHUT. THE DOORS SENSOR SHOWS ON THE DASHBOARD THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN. I HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO SHUT. THIS IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK IF I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRAVELING. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A RECALL ON THIS BECAUSE I HAVE DONE NOTHING AND I WAS TOLD BY MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP THAT I WILL HAVE TO PAY $370.00 TO GET IT FIXED AND I JUST DON'T SEE THAT AS FAIR AND REASONABLE. *TR

SAYS DOOR IS AJAR WHEN ITS NOT. DOME LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF, WONT LOCK, AND BEEPS CONSTANTLY WHEN NOT IN PARK UNTIL I TRY TO CLOSE THE DOOR, THAT IS ALREADY CLOSED. HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE, OPEN AND CLOSE, OPEN AND CLOSE UNTIL IT TURNS OFF. HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES. THIS IS NOT JUST AN ANNOYANCE ISSUE. *TR

THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL CONSTANTLY STAYS ON AFTER I'VE ALREADY MADE SURE THE DOOR WAS SHUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. MY INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT SHUT OFF UNTIL I'VE SLAMMED THE DOOR ABOUT 5-6 TIMES. IT'S REALLY HARD TO TELL IF THEY'VE SHUT OFF IN THE DAYTIME AND SO I'M FEARFUL I MAY COME OUT TO MY BATTERY BEING DEAD. IT ALSO SCARES ME TO SEE IT COME ON WHILE I'M DRIVING WITH MY DAUGHTER AS I'M UNSURE WHETHER THE DOOR IS PROPERLY LATCHED. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL SO THAT ALL DRIVERS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE CAN GET THIS FIXED IMMEDIATELY. *TR

DOOR SENSOR AJAR MALFUNCTIONING. DOME LIGHT IN CAR STAYING ON CAUSING NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD. DOORS NOT LOCKING WHILE DRIVING DUE TO SENSOR MALFUNCTION. SENSOR INCORPORATED IN DOOR LATCH. DOOR LATCH HAS TO BE REPLACED TO RECTIFY. *TR

WENT TO STOP BEHIND A TRUCK AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN I PUSHED DOWN ON THE BRAKE PETAL IT FELT SPONGY AND MY CAR WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL I PUSHED EXTREMELY HARD. THEN MY PETAL KEPT GOING DOWN FURTHER TO THE FLOOR. I PLACE MY CAR IN PARK GEAR AND CONTINUED TO HOLD THE BRAKE PETAL DOWN. MY CAR BEGAN MAKING A SQUEALING NOISE WHICH STOPPED WHEN I LET THE BRAKE PETAL UP. I PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND DROVE A COUPLE MORE BLOCKS WITH BRAKES STILL SPONGY AND NOT VERY RESPONSIVE. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR NOW AND WILL HAVE IT TOWED IN. I WAS SUPPOSE TO DRIVE TO MY CABIN YESTERDAY WHICH HAS A 35 MIN DRIVE THROUGH A CANYON WITH A 500 FOOT CLIFF ON ONE SIDE. THANKFULLY I DID NOT GO! *TR

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED....NOT ALLOWING THE DOOR TO LOCK WHILE IN MOTION. *TR

WHILE DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET, VEHICLE GOING UP A HILL THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. THE ENGINE DIED (ZERO RPM INDICATED.) A FEW SECONDS LATER, THE "LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE" WARNING WAS DISPLAYED. LOSS OF POWER STEERING/BRAKES. VEHICLE WAS CAREFULLY MANEUVERED OFF THE HIGHWAY. ATTEMPTED TO RESTART REPEATEDLY. ENGINE WOULD ONLY RUN FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN DIED. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO THE FORD DEALER. NO ENGINE TROUBLE CODES DETECTED. AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT, VEHICLE STARTED AND RAN WITHOUT ISSUE. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD WHEN A VEHICLE STALLS AT HIGH SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR

DOOR ALWAYS INDICATE OPEN. BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE THE CAR CAN'T BE LOCK. ALSO THE LIGHT INSIDE IS ALWAYS ON CAN'T BE TURN OFF AND THIS IS A DRIVING HAZAR. *TR
