    Door

    The warning light and sound for the driver door being ajar comes on and stays on. The interior light stays on while driving because of this and will stay on after the car is off and doors are locked or unlocked. I've taken it into the dealership to have it fixed and was told it was simply the sensor needing to be cleaned. After i had it fixed and paid to have it fixed, the problem began again about two months later.…

    The drivers side door ajar light/warning appears even though the door is fully closed. This prevents all doors from locking. There are times when the warning is not on but after a passenger closes the passenger side door the drivers side door ajar warning turns ons. I have had this issue serviced once by ford but it is not happening again. Ford issues a service bulletin but that appears to be only a stop gap measure…

    I have been having intermittent issues with the sensor not reading that my driver side door is latched. Today, it is constant and will not even allow me to lock the doors! I have tried several times to get it to "latch" and clearly the door is closed, but the "door ajar" warning is still illuminated. *tr

    The door ajar warning keeps on lighting up. We have to open and close the drivers door up to 20 times and sometimes the warning goes off and sometimes it does not. It is very annoying because if it doesn't turn off there is a beeping sound going on while you are driving asking you to pull aside and close the door again. It also affects while you are driving at night because the interior lights wont turn off and it…

    Door

    The alert for 'driver door ajar' comes on and will not turn off, regardless of how many times and/or how hard/soft the door is closed. This causes the interior lights to stay on after the car is turned off. I am now driving around, ignoring the alert, which is dangerous because i could potentially be driving with a door that is not latched properly, which could result in a serious injury. Thank god it is not the…
