Driver's door latch is not registering as closed. Lights stay on, I cannot lock my doors. My battery dies if it is not "shut". a lot of money loss in batteries and time lost in standing in sometimes snow or rain for minutes trying to get it to register. Also, I have children and would prefer my child is unable to open their door while in motion. Purchased the car used in November 2015 and it started malfunctioning after a month. I find it shocking that there is not a recall on this. It is an obvious safety issue and very well known with dealerships and repair shops, but the fixing price is around $500.

- Bemidji, MN, USA

The contact owns a 2012 Ford Edge. Each time the passenger door was closed, the door ajar indicator illuminated. The door had to be opened and closed a couple of times in order for the warning indicator to go off. The vehicle was taken to boulevard Ford in lewes, Delaware where it was diagnosed that the sensor and latch needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The contact stated that the failure occurred for two months. The VIN was unknown. The approximate failure mileage was 48,676....updated 10/23/17 updated 10/24/2017

Driver's side door indicates open/ajar when closed. This leads to multiple problems -- doors won't lock, interior lights stay on, etc.

- Clinton Township, MI, USA

Door latch switch malfunction causing door ajar warning when door is closed and vehicle is in motion. Door locks will not lock and child safety rear locks do not engage (child can open door when in motion). Child has not fallen out the door yet. Am getting it repaired at my expense because it is a safety issue.

Door ajar on my driver door has been continuously on even though the door is closed. This occurs in all situations (driving on a highway and streets, turning, and stationary). This has been ongoing since May 22. The door ajar sound continuously going off has caused issues when I turn my signal light on at a stop sign. The door ajar alarm overrides the sound of the turn blinker. This has caused me at times to look at my dashboard to verify that my turn signal is actually on. This is a dangerous defect that can cause an accident. This defect only leaves me two dangerous options. 1. I can check my blinkers every time that my door ajar sound overrides the blinker sound but this distracts me from the road. 2. I assume that my blinker is always on but this might result in a situation where the blinker is in fact not on. This can cause an accident because other drivers might not know that I am turning.

Door ajar light comes on when car door is shut. This causes my inside lights to stay on and delay going off. This also causes my doors not to lock when driving.

My 'driver door ajar' warning shows up when the door is closed and secured. It doesn't happen all of the time, but, often enough. Something is wrong with the switch.

The door adjar sensor is bad. Ford has recalled other vehicles for this and they are the same year but not the Ford Edge.

- Crawfordsville, IN, USA

Repeated problem with this vehicle. First door ajar light has been repaired because it would not shut off the interior lights (not legal to drive with them on) and therefore drained battery. Safety hazard. Ecoboast failed and we were told by the dealer that it was a safety hazard and that we could not drive the car....big expense! now a second door ajar light won't go off....doors do not lock while the vehicle is moving. Somebody needs to step up on these issues and do what's right. I cannot believe that specific vehicles were recalled for these issues when many others are experiencing, and paying for the exact same problem on the same year vehicle. Something smells about this. Majorly disappointed in Ford and NHTSA. Please note that the listed complaints are not the only ones we've had over the past year.

2012 Ford Edge locks unlock when driving sometimes.

- Raynham, MA, USA

Door sensor indicates that door is ajar when the door is securely closed. In my case specifically the drivers side rear door. Problem was intermittent at first. Now indicator light is always on. The inside lights stay illuminated (as if a door was open) and go out a minute after driving. The alarm will not set up as the vehicle thinks a door is ajar.

The rear left door ajar warning keeps coming on even when the door is closed. The warning will pop on while the car is in motion. The lights also pop on when there is no key in the ignition and the car is parked in the driveway. I have already had to replace my battery due to this issue.

Door ajar warning light is always on when starting or driving the vehicle.

- Los Angeles, CA, USA

The door ajar light stays on, even when the door is closed. This causes the interior lights to stay on, and prevents the doors from being locked. This is a safety hazard because the driver can't see out the windows at night. It started intermittently, and at first seemed to randomly appear and disappear. After about one month, it now stays on all the time.

After entering my vehicle and the door will be completely closed the door ajar sensor will come on and interior lights. Also, as I was riding down the road, out of no where the door ajar sensor comes on and interior lights come on and all the doors unlocked by themselves...soon as I locked them back, they unclocked again on their own.
