The sync system stopped working and unable to find the error or issues. searched internet and appears to be common issue with vehicle. the radio would make a glitching sound and then continue to play until it completely stopped about 5 weeks ago. the vehicle was parked and when attempting to start car the radio was dead
While driving, the car just stops. no power, cannot turn wheel, gas nor brake pedal works. have to restart by pushing ignition button. this has happened a few times already and is a major safety issue.

2013 ford flex - door sensor keeps thinking it is open. it prevents us from locking the doors, both parked and in motion. it allows our children to open the door while in motion because the doors will not latch. issue is still occurring. it started a month ago (start of november 2018), however now does it every time we are getting into or out of the vehicle. issue while driving: when the sensor is sensing the door as "open", the lights in the vehicle stay on for over 3 miles of driving before they will turn off - day or night causing a back light (glare) issue during night time driving. issue while stopped, both sitting in and outside of the vehicle: the lights do not turn off and runs down the battery of my vehicle. i timed the lights after getting home and at 30 minutes i stopped the timer - as it was too cold to continue. i had to shut the door 12 times before the sensor finally sensed a "closed" door and shut the lights off.
The rear passenger doors are shut all the way, but the car senses them as open and keeps the interior lights on with a door ajar warning on the dashboard. there was a tsb performed on my car for this issue, but the issue has returned. it is an intermittent issue. i have to try opening and closing the door to get it to show as shut. it can cause the car alarm to go off at times. the warning can come on while i'm driving, long after i shut the door.
2 issues 1) the front passenger door though closed is read as a warning "door ajar". the warning stays on at all times. it drains the battery and i have replaced the battery once since owning the 2013 ford flex when purchased in 2016 with just under 20,000 miles on it. the interior lights stay on from starting the engine until accelerated speed. the interior lights after parked stay on for a minimum of 30 minutes though it could be longer contributing to draining the vehicle battery. 2) the vehicle began to feel as if it is pulled while in commute. not starting right away or shuts down/stalls. it has stalled and not turned over though the lights and radio work. fortunately this has happened after being parked in my parking spot. it will not turn over, but the next morning it will start. after reading about similar issues for other ford flex vehicles last week with my vehicle doing the above action i replaced the fuel pump relay module. which is located in the rear passenger area between rear ...
The door ajar light come on the dash even though all doors are closed. the door unlocks after locking due to the car thinking the door is open. this is the front passenger door. the light will randomly go off and on without even touching the door.this also cause the interior lights to come on which is not safe when driving at night.
Door lock sensors. door lock sensors failing to recognize when the doors are shut so constantly showing doors ajar. this has drained my battery to the point where it needed to be replaced. door sensor was replaced also. the cost of this was approximately $500. now two more sensors are bad. i leave my house before sunrise. when i get in my car in the morning my interior lights will not go off until my vehicle reaches an accelerated speed. so i am pulling out of my driveway unable to see due to interior lights hoping that my neighbors who run are not behind my vehicle or the children at the bus stop across the street are clear from my vehicle. additionally, my elderly mother has gotten into my car and forgotten to shut her passenger side door. after driving for fifteen minutes, i realized that in fact her door was open butthe sensor always shows it as open. i now am faced with spending another $700+ to have the sensors replaced. this puts my total investment in sensor replacement at over $1200. this is almost one of my paychecks or two weeks worth of pay! it is ...
I have a 2013 ford flex and the doors always say they are open even thought they are closed. it causes me not to be able to lock my doors, the dome light to stay on which is very dangerous when reversing at night out of a parking spot, and i believe it's unsafe being that i have children and i can't know whether or not the doors are closed accurately. i've contacted ford several times and get the run around. the dome light will stay on until i've hit 10mph. reversing with a bright dome light on is very dangerous. i've also had to replace my battery several times because the light stays on.
Passenger door sensor is only working half of the time. the door is closed but the alarm shows the door as opened. opening and closing the door again and again will eventually work to register the door as closed. this is a safety concern as i am never really sure if the door is closed. when the door is shown as open the interior lights remain on.
Both of the tail lights have water intrusion about 3 0z of water within the chamber. i have replaced lights several times.shortening out which has caused a problem with safety and traffic violations.
The vehicle incorrectly believes the doors are open when they are shut. this prevents the doors from locking at all speeds, which is an unsafe condition. if an occupant tries to lock the doors while the vehicle is in motion, the vehicle immediately unlocks the doors. the issue also causes the interior lights to stay illuminated while the vehicle is parked and until the vehicle reaches an appropriate speed when in use. the open/closed state of the door changes at random (without the actual door being opened or closed) and causes the alarm to randomly go off when the vehicle is parked. the combination of the lights staying illuminated and the alarm going off when the vehicle is parked drained and ruined the battery in the vehicle. jump starting the vehicle did not work and the battery had to be replaced.
When stationary and parked, the door ajar error message appears on the dash for the driver's door after entering the vehicle. this produces error messages on the screen, turns on the interior lights, and prevents the doors from being locked. after repeatedly opening and slamming the door shut multiple times the message may or may not go away. if slamming the door shut multiple times does not work the messages, lights, and inability to lock the doors continues while in motion.
2013 ford flex se purchased in december 2012 with 60,000 miles is experiencing front and rear passenger door latching problems. the front passenger door 'door ajar' light is triggered after the door has been closed. when this problem began, opening and closing the door would be enough to engage the sensor but over the past month it has not been effective. this is a problem for a few reasons: first, it does not automatically lock the doors when the car is in motion which is a potential safety hazard under normal driving conditions or if the vehicle was to be in an accident. the door could possibly fly open during a collision leaving the passengers vulnerable to being thrown from the vehicle or objects coming into the vehicle. second, the cabin light remains on while driving which creates a glare on the windshield making it impossible to see outside the vehicle. third, the cabin lights stay on after the vehicle is locked which causes an unwarranted strain on the vehicle battery. as for the back right passenger door, it is not latching. i fear that at anytime the door may come unlatched while driving. if this problem continues and the ...
