    Door ajar light for drivers door will intermittently stay on when door is closed. As a result the overhead lights go on obstructing drivers vision at night. Additionally it is impossible to lock the doors when this condition exists. When driving an irritating message comes on saying to shift to park and close door which are already closed. This appears to be a bad design flaw which creates a dangerous situation for…

    Rear left door ajar. Interior dome lights stay on for a significantly varying amount of time when driving and when it's dark at night this is very distracting and dangerous. The interior dome lights stay on for a significantly varying amount of time after the car is turned off and key is removed. This is draining the battery and going to lead to premature battery failure. Sometimes the car doors won't lock while…

    The drivers side door sensor will come on indicating that the drivers side door is open, when it is in fact closed tight. It will cause my lights to remain on awhile after driving, and anytime i stop then accelerate, it will ding to notify me that the door is still open. Which is extremely frustrating. Also, because it thinks the door is open, the dome lights stay on longer which has drained my battery, to the point…

    My 2013 ford edge has a mechanical/electric door jar switch which fails thus you end up with a 'door ajar' warning on your dash. Thus you can't lock your doors and the light and radio remain on after to exit the vehicle.

    The car is at 50,000 and the drivers side door ajar signals the door is open and it is not. This is a safety issue because the doors do not automatically lock as they should. Also, it causes the dome lights to stay on and other sensors to come on when the car is at a stop light or stop sign. Due to this being an issue read about widely ford should issue a recall to fix this.
