PASSENGER DOOR AJAR WARNING BEGAN TO COME ON IN OCTOBER 2015, EVEN WHEN THE PASSENGER DOOR WAS SHUT. THIS HAS RESULTED IN THE DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON WHEN I BEGIN TO DRIVE THE CAR. THIS CREATES A SAFETY ISSUE AT NIGHT, AS IT HAS A VERY NEGATIVE IMPACT ON MY VISION UNTIL THE DOME LIGHTS GO OFF. WHEN I PARK THE CAR, SHUT IT OFF, AND CLOSE ALL DOORS, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. THIS HAS RESULTED IN A DRAINING OF MY BATTERY. I HAVE HAD TO CHARGE THE BATTERY ON MANY OCCASIONS (6 TIMES IN THE PAST WEEK). THIS ISSUE IS FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR ME HAVING TO PURCHASE A NEW BATTERY YESTERDAY, WHICH COST NEARLY $200 INSTALLED. THE BATTERY DRAINING BECAUSE OF THIS MATTER COULD BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE DEPENDING ON WHERE I WAS AND WHO WAS AROUND WHEN I NEEDED A JUMP. FINALLY, THE PASSENGER DOOR AJAR INDICATOR MALFUNCTION PROHIBITS ME FROM LOCKING MY DOORS WHEN I AM DRIVING. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE TO TRAVEL THREE TIMES A WEEK INTO A CITY WITH HIGH CRIME AND I CANNOT LOCK MY DOORS!! I HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE REAR LEFT DOOR AJAR INDICATOR, ALTHOUGH TO A LESSER EXTENT. FORD IS AWARE THAT THERE IS A BIG PROBLEM HERE AND I FEEL THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES IN THE INTEREST OF THE SAFETY OF THE OWNERS. IT SEEMS TO BE THEY COULD BE LIABLE IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT DUE TO DOME LIGHTS BLINDING A DRIVER AT NIGHT OR IF THERE WAS THEFT OR INJURY RESULTING FROM DOORS NOT BEING ABLE TO BE LOCKED WHEN DRIVING. THE REPAIR IS QUITE EXPENSIVE AND VEHICLE OWNERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS. THIS ISSUE HAS MADE ME DISLIKE DRIVING AND OWNING THIS VEHICLE FOR THE PAST YEAR. PLEASE FORCE FORD TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND MAKE THEM RECALL THESE VEHICLES. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR SENSOR INCORRECTLY SENSES DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS ACTUALLY CLOSED CAUSING THE INABILITY TO LOCK ANY OF THE VEHICLES DOORS. DOME LIGHT REMAINS ON WHEN DRIVING. THE INABILITY TO LOCK ANY OF THE DOORS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN SINCE IT COULD ENABLE ANYONE TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR AND THE DRIVER HAS NO WAY TO LOCK THEM OUT.
DOOR AJAR WARNING ALWAYS ON RESULTING IN DOORS NOT LOCKING WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION, DOME LIGHTING STAYING ON WHEN EXITING THE CAR AND NOT BEING AWARE IF CAR DOOR IS SHUT.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR FAILED CAUSING BATTERY TO DIE. HAD TO BUY NEW BATTERY AND PAY $500+ TO REPLACE DOOR AJAR SENSOR. THE FED OPENED AN INVESTIGATION ON OCTOBER 3, 2016 TO INQUIRE ABOUT THIS WIDESPREAD ISSUE.
INTERNAL WATER PUMP WENT OUT. NO SENSOR SAYING ITS BAD. WHEN IT OCCURS THE FLUID DROPS IN TO OIL PAN, SUCKS IN TO ENGINE AND DESTROYS THE ENGINE IN A MATTER OF MINUTES. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND CAR DIED IN A MINUTE.
THE SENSOR IN MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR WARNS ME THAT MY DOOR IS "AJAR" WHEN ALL DOORS ARE SHUT. WHEN THIS WARNING IS ON, I AM NOT ABLE TO LOCK ANY DOORS IN MY VEHICLE (NEITHER IN MOTION NOR PARKED) AND I OFTEN TRAVEL WITH TODDLERS. THE DOME LIGHTS ARE ALSO ILLUMINATED SO IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ON THE ROAD AT NIGHT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR CAUSED THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR TO ILLUMINATE, ALTHOUGH THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. IN ADDITION, THE INTERIOR LIGHTING REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND THE DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE LATCH ASSEMBLY…

1PE16012 · Door Ajar Warning Light Always On
Opened Sep 28, 2016 · Closed Mar 20, 2017
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Interior Lighting; Latches/locks/linkages; Latches/locks/linkages:doors:latch
The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened this investigation on September 28, 2016 based on allegations that the door ajar light located on the instrument cluster stays on all of the time even when all doors are closed and fully latched on 2011-2013 model year Ford Edge vehicles.When the light is illuminated continuously, vehicle occupants cannot be certain if any of the doors are properly latched.Reported safety consequences as a result of this issue include doors opening while driving (because doors were initially not latched properly), doors cannot be locked while driving, and the interior dome lights staying on continuously. Ford data received from the Information Request letter corresponding to this investigation indicates the failures were caused by contamination of the electrical contacts on the switch located within each door latch that tells the vehicle if the door is open or closed.All four doors contain the same latch design and switch.According to Ford, the Body Control Module (BCM) monitors the position of the switch and continuously samples it to detect a state of change.After a closed door state is detected, a continuous wetting current designed to keep the electrical contacts clean is sent from the BCM to the switches as long as the BCM is active.Beginning with the 2011 model year Edge vehicles, a change in BCM strategy resulted in a reduction of the wetting current sent out to clean the switch contacts by more than 75%.Over time, this low level of current is not sufficient to keep the switch contacts clean and contamination build up causes them to fail as described above.During the course of this investigation, ODI has identified a total of 1,983 complaints related to the door ajar light.Of these complaints, 14 indicated that a door opened while driving.Twelve of the 14 door opening events were situations where an occupant of the vehicle (often a child) opened a passenger door because the doors were not locked.The remaining two complaints involved a door opening on its own because the driver was unaware that the door was unlatched.There were no accidents but one complainant reported that a shoulder injury was caused by the driver having to repeatedly slam the door in an effort to get the door ajar light to turn off.After reviewing all available data, an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety has not been identified.The door latches themselves continue to function properly, remaining securely latched until acted upon by a driver or passenger.Child safety locks on the rear doors continue to function properly and can be used to prevent the rear doors from opening via the inside door handles.Vehicle crashworthiness is not affected by the lock condition of the doors and all active safety systems continue to function normally even if the vehicle BCM believes one or more doors is open.In addition, no accidents or accident related injuries have been reported.A safety-related defect trend has not been identified at this time and further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted.Accordingly, the investigation is closed.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist.The agency will monitor the issue and reserves the right to take future action if warranted by the circumstances.ODI numbers for the reports cited above are shown in the attached document.
