Both the driver and driver side passenger door latches and sensor failed. The sensor believes that the doors are ajar when in fact they are not. Because of this failure the interior lights stay on while driving until you reach a certain speed. This is especially dangerous at night because it is hard to see out. The interior lights also stay on for a very long time after you turn the vehicle off. If you take this in…

Once again the door ajar light comes on even when the car is parked, and all doors/hatch are properly closed. I have to slam the driver's door very hard multiple times before it will go off and allow the vehicle to be locked, and the alarm to be set!!! My car has less than 40,000 miles on it. The frustrating thing is i reported this to the dealer in june and they claim there was no problem. Well, they were wrong,…

The driver door ajar light comes on and stays on. This causes the interior lights to stay on and the battery to drain. Also the doors will not lock/stay locked. This happens when initially starting the vehicle and has happened while driving. I believe the cause of the problem to be either in the sensor or the door latch itself. At first it seemed to happen at random, but now seems to be occurring more often. This…

When i close my drivers side door and start my 2013 ford edge, it thinks my door is ajar. This is a latch problem and the vehicle does not recognize that the door is closed. As a result, the doors will not lock. I have seen many complaints of this problem on the web. I am hoping that the nhtsa will force ford to recall these vehicles and fix the problem

The door latch is defective. It reads that the door is ajar when it is really closed.

The vehicle does not sense the drivers side front door is fully closed. This results in the doors not locking when the vehicle is parked or in motion. It also causes the interior lights to stay on for a long time. I think that both of these issues are a safety hazard.

Driver door ajar alarm. Door is closed but switch is not made up. This prevents the doors from being locked from inside the vehicle. If the lock switch is actuated, 2 seconds later it unlocks all doors. This could be hazardous with small children in the vehicle or when driving in a bad neighborhood. Ford has known about this problem for years but refuses to recall because it is not deemed a safety issue by them.
