THE ISSUE BEGAN ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO (OCTOBER 10, 2016). I WAS ABLE TO OPEN AND SHUT DOOR TO TURN THE SENOR OFF THE FIRST FEW TIMES THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON AND THAT SOLVED THE PROBLEM...TEMPORARILY. AT THIS POINT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON, INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED AND TURNED OFF, BATTERY IS DRAINED DUE TO LIGHTS STAYING ON UNLESS I DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND DOORS NEVER LOCK - NOT WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, NOT WHEN IT IS PARKED.

WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS CLOSED SECURELY THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND WARNING SOUND ACTIVATE ALMOST DAILY, MORE OFTEN ON COOLER MORMINGS. AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO CLOSE THE DOOR SECURELY THE PROBLEM PERSISTS AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ALSO HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS AND AT ALL SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING OR AS A RESULT OF UNUSUAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. IN ADDITION, WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, ALL OF THE DOORS UNLOCK WHEN THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ACTIVATES AND THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT IS ENABLED MAKING THE VEHICLE, IN MY OPION, UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND OCCUPY. THIS PROBLEM IS DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT AND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. HAD I KNOWN OF THIS PROBLEM EXISTED BEFORE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED ANY VEHICLE MADE BY FORD.I AM NOW AWARE THE PROBLEM IS WELL DOCUMENTED AND WIDELY KNOWN ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND THROUGH COMMENTS I HAVE READ ON VARIOUS CONSUMER WEBSITES. I DO NOT RECALL THE FIRST TIME THIS PROBLEM OCCURED, BUT THE LAST TIME WAS TODAY WHILE TAKING MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL. I AM REQUESTING A RECALL FOR THE ENTIRE DOOR ASSEMBLY THAT CONTROLS THE DOOR AJAR WARNING SYSTEM. *TR

IT ALWAYS HAD THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ON THE SCREEN AND THE DOME LIGHTS STAYED ON AND DOORS WOULDN'T LOCK WHILE DRIVING AS IF A DOOR WAS OPEN. THIS MADE IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT NIGHT BECAUSE ALL THE LIGHTS WOULD BE ON IN THE CAR. ALSO, MY 4 YEAR OLD WAS ABLE TO REACH AND OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION SO I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT FIXED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE ONE OF MY CHILDREN WAS HURT. THE CAR ONLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES ON IT AND IS WELL CARED FOR BUT OUT OF WARRANTY SO THE REPAIR COST US 474$ AND I WAS OUT OF A VEHICLE FOR TWO DAYS. *TR

14V393000 · Power Train:axle Assembly:axle Shaft

Jul 2, 2014

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2012-2014 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX vehicles manufactured September 2, 2010, to November 30, 2013; 2013-2014 Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS vehicles manufactured August 25, 2011, to November 30, 2013; and 2013-2014 Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles manufactured September 12, 2011, to November 30, 2013. In the affected vehicles, the halfshaft retention circlip may not have been properly installed, and as a result, the halfshaft may move outward and disengage from the linkshaft while driving and without prior warning.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: If the halfshaft and linkshaft become disengaged while driving, power will no longer be transmitted to the wheels, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. Additionally, if the parking brake is not applied before exiting the vehicle, the vehicle may roll away despite the transmission being placed in 'Park', increasing the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.

Remedy: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles to make sure that the halfshaft is properly retained. If it is not, dealers will replace the linkshaft and also replace the halfshaft if it shows evidence of spline damage, free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2014. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-800-392-3673. Ford's number for this recall is 14S10.

14V002000 · Fuel System, Gasoline

Jan 6, 2014

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 Edge vehicles manufactured from September 2, 2010, through April 25, 2013, and equipped with 2.0L engines. The fuel line pulse damper metal housing may crack as a result of an improper manufacturing process. A cracked fuel line pulse damper housing may result in a combination of fuel odor, weepage, or a continuous leak while the fuel system is pressurized.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire.

Remedy: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel line with one that does not have a damper, free of charge. The safety recall began on February 25, 2014. Owners may contact Ford at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 13S13. IMPORTANT: This recall supersedes recall 12V-438. All vehicles that have been remedied under the previous recall need to have the current remedy applied.

PE16012 · 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.
