    The driver door ajar switch will not sense the door is shut when the vehicle is stationary. The light will not go out after repeated shutting. When backing out of my garage, i cannot see when it is dark because the interior lights blind the driver. I am fearful i will hit someone while backing up. When driving forward, the lights go out around 15 mph. The door ajar switch is on every time the door is shut.

    The driver side door latch will not latch properly causing the door ajar light to stay on. The door shuts and locks but the door ajar light stays on. When the vehicle is in motion the car will not lock all the doors because it is sensing that the front door is not shut. The interior lights stay on causing it hard to see at night while driving.

    The door ajar light stays illuminated permanently whenever either rear door is opened and closed. Because of this, the automatic door locks do not lock automatically and the interior lights stay illuminated. Ford charges over $400 for each door to fix this problem. This should a recall!

    The door latch mechanism on my driver's side door slowly began failing. At roughly 35k miles, the "door ajar" warning would appear on my vehicle display. I would reclose the door and the warning would go away. It randomly continued to happen and resolve itself while stationary or while running, until about 95k miles ( 8 mo ago). There were electronic sprays you could spray into the latch mechanism that would make…

    Door mechanism isn't working correctly and 'door ajar' will present. This keeps the interior lights on and doesn't allow auto locks to engage because it thinks the door is still open. It isn't.

    The dash indication light is illuminated at all times even with the door being closed. This is a safety concern because the other doors on the vehicle will not lock while parked and/or in motion. I have driven on the interstate with my doors unlocked and my interior light on because of this sensor. I hope that this can be recalled immediately.

    The door ajar alarm on the passenger door will not turn off even though the door is shut. This causes the door lock not to engage and the inside lights to stay on even while driving. I don't have a way to lock my doors, even manually.

    It's my 2011 ford edge sel. The driver ajar light stays on all the time no matter how hard i slam the door. This situation is unsafe because while driving it leaves all the doors unsecured. This is not right, anyone could come at the lights or stop signs and open up the vehicle. Also it not safe for the kids. This is a big security issue that needs to be looked into.

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.

    Door ajar light stays on all the time, this cause the doors to not be able to lock, the interior light stays on for an extended period of time. When the interior lights stay on at night it makes driving difficult at times. The interior lights staying on in the winter time have also made it drain the battery down so vehicle has to be jump started.

    I believe the electronic throttle body has failed as the edge has similar malfunctions as other fords affected by the defective throttle body. The edge dies in the middle of driving and display a wrench on the sync system.
