Drivers side rear door will randomly set the cars alarm off saying the door is opened when in fact the door is closed. This has drained my battery once, needing a new replacement. I replaced the door switch because ford dealership told me it was bad ($400) and it still randomly goes off. This issue has left me stranded several times due to the battery being drained.

The door sensor to let the car know the door was closed, failed, resulting in a constant "door ajar" message. This occurred on the driver side door and started shortly after i purchased the car (used) in 2017 and was no longer covered under warranty. For the better part of the past 2 years i was able to repeatedly open/close the door until the sensor recognized that the door was actually closed, but that no longer…

The "drivers door ajar light" stays on even with the door securely closed. I had to slam it a few times, which i feel is improper procedure, to disengage the light. Upon securing vehicle, the interior lights won't disengage. This drains the battery life, where upon i need to buy a new battery. While driving at night, the interior light stays on, which makes it hard to see. Is there or will there be a recall for this…
