    I keep getting a door ajar warning even when the door is completely shut. Therefore my lights stay on extra and my auto door locks wont lock, and i have a child in the rear seat so the child could open the door if i don't manually lock them...not safe!. Upon searching, the door sensor needs to be replaced which is no easy task. Ford should replace for no fee.

    Second time door ajar indicator came on in 1 year, drivers door and driver passenger door had to be replaced to the amount of $ 650.00. When this happens the inside light stays on, which in turn drains the battery. Obviously this happens a lot because there are self help videos to disable the mechanisms. I am inquiring as to being reimbursed for the above amount. I believe there is a problem due to the fact that the…

    Driver's side door keeps sounding the door ajar warning even when the door is firmly closed. No amount of open/closing seems to clear the warning and therefore the warning chimes occur every time the car reaches a stop in traffic. False warnings are dangerous and doors will not lock while car is on.

    The door ajar alarm stays on regardless of if the door is closed or not. Only the driver's front door seems to be affected. Sometimes repeatedly closing the door (15+ times) will finally make the alarm go off.
