Problems with 2013 Ford Edge ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Door ajar sensor malfunctions. as if door is still open when closed. not knowing if door is closed safely to operate vehicle,

The door ajar light comes on when the door is closed tight.(drivers door) this causes warning lights and sounds from dash display. the door overhead lights also come on. when stopping the warning system states "shift to park". constant ringing and display of this problem but the door is not ajar. research of this problem on the internet shows a obvious problem with these door sensors. this is a safety hazard. please force recall! *tr

When you close the driver side door the instrument panel gives a false warning saying the door is ajar and the dome light stays on. this happens when the car is stationary. after several attempts of opening and closing the door the warning disappears, but then while the car is moving the warning returns and the dome light comes back on and the doors unlock. this seems to be a pretty common problem and my car currently has 48,000 miles on it. this warning issue has been going on for about 1 month.

Driver's side door open light keeps coming on. shift to park light keeps coming on. lights come on while you are driving or just parked. interior lights don't go out when they should. inside lights go on when the car is just parked for no reason. sometimes will stay on for up to a half an hour

Door ajar signal stays on when door is shut preventing interior lights from going off.

My driver side door ajar warning will not go off. the door is completely closed. this is causing the interior lights to stay on, the alarm chimes everytime i stop and the doors will not lock. if the car is parked it is causing the battery to drain. this issue began a couple of weeks ago intermittently but is now constantry happening.

The door sensors are not working correctly and the door ajar indicator stays on and the inside dome lights stay on making it difficult to see when it is dark outside.

The instrument panel gives an incorrect warning that the drivers door is ajar. the drivers door is securely closed but the warning stays on. the doors are unable to be locked which is a major safety concern. the overhead dome lights remain on and do not shut off as long as this false warning signal is on which is again a major safety issue when driving at night. after shifting to drive, the alarms sound and the instrument panel says "shift to park" which again is a major safety concern as it is very distracting when trying to drive the vehicle. since this is a major safety issue ford should recall this vehicle to repair this electrical failure.

Door ajar warning light stays on even after door is closed. interior lights stay on even after door is closed. door sensor issue. almost wrecked when interior lights came on while driving-the door sensor light came on without the door being opened. we took the vehicle to the ford dealer and they said they could not find the issue.

Door ajar sensor will not turn off. lights keep going on while driving.

Driver door ajar warning stays on when door is closed, in park and in drive, and will not recognize the door is closed. safety issue is lights stay on making it difficult to see when driving at night. it also does not shut off the overhead lights after exiting the vehicle, which has drained and ruined the battery(which i have replaced because i was left stranded several times) this vehicle has 54,000 miles on it. this complaint needs to be reviewed and a recall issued to repair this.

The door sensor on front driver's side door does not work properly. i have to shut the door very hard several times before it says the door is closed. this can leave the interior lights running after the car is turned off and can cause problems with the door locking properly.

When shut, the door does not register as such. i have had to open/close it several times before the "door ajar" signal goes off. this issue has been progressively worsening, and now i believe the 'sensor' has completely failed. the door shuts, locks, and arms the alarm, yet the dome light and ajar symbol continue to stay on. ford has told me this is a "wear and tear" issue that they will not cover! i have seen this issue affect many ford models between 2001-2015 but more prominently when it comes to the edge. i got the vehicle 08/2015 and this issue started occurring intermittently by 12/2015; now, this is occurring each time i have to open the driver door.

It started sporadically and now it is an every turn the key occurrence. the driver door is closed. the car will 'sense' it is not closed. during this time, it will not lock, the interior lights, sensing the door is open will remain on. takes several attempts of slamming the door for it to register that the door is closed. occasionally, during driving, it will all of the sudden show and beep the driver door is open and will unlock all 4 doors. today, while entering the vehicle to go to work, it happened as usual however, this time, regardless of how many times i closed the door (slammed, gently pushed it) it would not register closed. i had to turn the vehicle off, restart the vehicle, close the door 4 times for it to register that the door was closed. this vehicle has 38k miles.

Driver's door switch malfunctioning causing vehicle to think left front door is ajar, even when it's securely latched. this causes the car to emit a constant warning chime while the key is in the ignition under any operating conditions: vehicle off, accessory, key on, not running, and in run. the chime also sounds each time the brake pedal is released after each stop, with the chime overriding the turn signal sound. interior lights do not shut off at low speeds, obscuring vision at night. also, all door lock function is overridden (automatic and manual), allowing any door to be opened at any time - whether vehicle is in motion or not. in my specific case, the door ajar warning could occasionally be cured by aggressively slamming the drivers door shut several times. our vehicle has the extremely expensive and inherently fragile acoustic glass installed, which shattered when the door was slammed with the window in the down position. i am replacing the faulty latch and door glass myself at my own expense, but i intend to seek reimbursement from ford either through a recall or potentially through a small claims lawsuit.

The door ajar like stays on while door is closed. the door is closed. i have to open and close the door several times to get it to shut off. the inside light also stays on until the door ajar light goes off. the other doors do not lock while this is happening. this is a real safety hazard and should be fixed by ford under a recall

Driver's side door ajar light will not always go off when door closes. this causes interior lights to remain on going down the road and at night causes driver to not see as well. also, doors will not automatically lock when door sensor doesn't work correctly which is worrisome in some parts of town. many times dome lights may stay on for hours when door shows to be ajar. this of course causes battery to run down which has required battery to be replaced. please help as i now know there are many ford owners who will not purchase or recommend any ford to family or friends.

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 has been occurring for a few weeks. will be taking it to be repaired in a few days

Driver door alarm beeps when door is closed. interior lights stay on. this occurred earlier this year and ford 'cleaned off' the sensor. started to happen again several weeks ago. ford is replacing the sensor, but we have to pay for this because the issue has not qualified for a recall. please submit a complaint if this is happening to your 2013 ford edge.
