For the past few months i have been having a door ajar issue with my driver's side door even though my door is completely closed and the interior light stays on running my battery down. Do they have a recall regarding this issue as i should not be responsible for replacing a faulty electrical system that already has fuel problems .

The door ajar warning lights come on every single day for all doors. Constantly causing surmountable stress to driver. If unable to get the sensor to turn off, the doors do not lock while driving, which is terribly unsafe for driver and passengers. Also, because the dome light is connected to the door, the lights stay on draining battery. I've also had the door ajar sensor warning come on while driving down the…

Passenger door ajar light will not go out although the door is shut completely. This causes the dome light to stay on when parked and causes other lights to begin blinking on and off, also has caused car alarm to go off for short periods of time and than stop by itself. The door ajar light is always on when operating the vehicle, and always when starting the car after engine off and parked.

Door ajar warning. There's a common issue with many fords where there's an issue in the door latch assembly that triggers the door ajar warning light and leaves the dome lights on. This is a safety issue if one is trying to reclose the (already closed) door while the car is moving and the dome light remaining on affects night vision. This happens after car is started and remains all the time the car is turns on - in…

This is the ubiquitous 'door ajar' alarm issue that ford refuses to acknowledge. The door ajar light along with its associated warning chime and interior lights will turn on randomly. Sometimes i have to open and shut the door for several minutes to get the lights off so the battery will not run down and leave me stranded. On several occasions i have had to open and shut the door while driving in order to get this…

The "door ajar" alert and the interior cabin lights stay on even though the door is firmly closed. This happens when the car is stationary and moving. This is a danger at night as the interior lights make it difficult to see. The doors also do not lock due to this issue. I would also imagine the battery will wear down as a result of the lights staying on.
