    Ford edge 2011 - door ajar when door is closed. Very poor construction of this part. The door sensor is located in the door latch. The door ajar will not let you lock your car doors and also keeps your overhead dome light on therefore draining your car battery. Ford should recall this as they know it is a huge problem and a defective part. This can happen on all doors and at $500 each you are having to pay $2,000.00…
