Door ajar sensor. The door is closed, dome lights are on while driving at night and battery continues to go dead as the lights won't turn off. $500 to fix and you just keep paying and paying and paying to fix a problem that should be a recall issue for ford. It's certainly unsafe while driving at night, and getting stranded with a dead battery continuously.
