2012 Ford Edge complaints

FUEL NOZZLE INLET SET A MIL LIGHT CODE FOR FUEL VAPOR SEEPAGE. THIS IS THE CAPLESS FUEL SYSTEM. THIS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON EVER SINCE. ANY TYPE OF IGNITION SOURCE GOES NEAR THE FUEL DOOR WILL IGNITE THE VEHICLE INTO FLAMES. *TR

THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR FAILS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY MAKING THE VEHICLE REACT AS THOUGH THE DOOR IS OPEN EVEN THOUGH IT IS ACTUALLY CLOSED. THIS PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING AND PREVENTS THE DOME LIGHT FROM TURNING OFF. THE DOOR AJAR ALARM AND LIGHT WILL NOT STOP ALERTING THE DRIVER TO THE PROBLEM. BECAUSE THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, THERE IS A DANGER TO DRIVER AND PASSENGERS WHILE MOVING. WHEN DOME LIGHT FAILS TO TURN OFF, THE CAR BATTERY CAN RUN DOWN PREVENTING THE CAR FROM STARTING. *TR

WITH THE DRIVER DOOR CLOSED, DISPLAY SHOWS DOOR AJAR AND THE DOME LIGHTS ARE ON. THE CAR DOESN'T LOCK THE DOORS TOO. IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH THE LIGHTS ON STRAIGHT IN YOUR FACE! THIS A SECURITY FAILURE AND SEEMS TO BE EPIDEMIC ON FORD CARS. DEALERS ARE CHARGING $400 TO $500 TO REPLACE THE FAULTY SWITCH INSIDE THE DOOR LATCH. FORD SHOULD RECALL AS A SAFETY MATTER AND DO THE REPAIR FOR FREE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AJAR WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND A CHIME SOUNDED EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR WAS CLOSED SECURELY. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED, ALL FOUR POWER DOOR LOCKS FAILED TO OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH. ONE YEAR LATER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR THE MOST RECENT FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000. UPDATED 5/18/15*CN UPDATED 10/2/2017*CN

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN MY SENSOR INDICTED THAT THE DRIVER'S DOOR WAS AJAR. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SLAMMED THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES. THE SENSOR STILL TOLD ME THE DOOR WAS AJAR. THIS WILL NOT GO OFF. IT HAS BEEN TWO WEEKS NOW. THE DOME LIGHT WILL ALSO STAY ON DRAINING MY BATTERY. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THE SENSORS. WHEN I LOOK ON LINE THERE ARE MULTIPLE OTHER DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE CHIME WARNING IS CONSTANT. PLEASE RECALL THESE SO I CAN FEEL SAFE IN MY VEHICLE! *TR

2012 FORD EDGE SEL DRIVER DOOR LATCH AJAR LIGHT COMES, INSIDE LIGHTS AND WILL NOT TURN OFF, DOOR LATCH NEED TO BE REPLACE. *TR

ABOUT 90% OF THE TIME -- AT ALL SPEEDS OF 0-75 -- THE WARNING LIGHT SHOWS THE DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR, WHICH CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON, AND THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING IN THE CITY AND STOP AT A RED LIGHT -- ANYONE COULD OPEN THE DOOR AND GET INSIDE. WHEN THE DOME LIGHTS ARE ON, IT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY WHEN BACKING THE CAR. *TR

DRIVER DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY FAILURE RESULTS IN A DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING. DOOR IS LATCHED AT LEAST ENOUGH TO STAY SHUT, HOWEVER, THE WARNING STAYS ON. AS A RESULT, THE AUTO DOOR LOCK AT 10MPH DOES NOT HAPPEN. IF YOU USE THE DOOR LOCK PUSH BUTTON, THE DOORS LOCK AND THEN IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK. THE ONLY WAY TO LOCK THEM IS TO PUSH DOWN EACH ON THE DOOR BUTTONS. SMALL CHILDREN OR BABIES IN THE BACK SEAT CAN'T AND THE DRIVER CAN'T REACH ALL THE DOORS. NOT A GOOD SITUATION. ALSO, EVERY TIME YOU STOP, FOR INSTANCE AT A LIGHT, ANOTHER WARNING TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK OCCURS WHEN YOU RELEASE THE BRAKES. ANOTHER DISTRACTION. DEALER SAYS PART IS ON BACKORDER. THIS, ALONG WITH ALL THE WEB INSTANCES, INDICATES A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY ON EDGE AND LINCOLN. A RECALL SEEMS TO BE IN ORDER AS THE DESIGN IS FAULTY IN TODAY'S WORLD! CARB CLEANER AND WD 40 WORKED FOR A FEW TIMES FOR A FEW DAYS BUT NOW PROBLEM IS SOLID. THE LATCH SPRING APPEARS TO BE BROKEN AND/OR A FAULTY SENSOR - ALL PART OF THE SAME ASSEMBLY. *TR

DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR, DOOR AJAR LIGHT SAYS ON. HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO TURN OFF AND SOME TIMES THAT DOES NOT EVEN WORK. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. *TR

SAYS DOOR IS AJAR WHEN ITS NOT. DOME LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF, WONT LOCK, AND BEEPS CONSTANTLY WHEN NOT IN PARK UNTIL I TRY TO CLOSE THE DOOR, THAT IS ALREADY CLOSED. HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE, OPEN AND CLOSE, OPEN AND CLOSE UNTIL IT TURNS OFF. HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES. THIS IS NOT JUST AN ANNOYANCE ISSUE. *TR

MY DRIVERS DOOR APPEARS TO NOT BE CLOSING BUT I KNOW IT IS SHUT. THE DOORS SENSOR SHOWS ON THE DASHBOARD THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN. I HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO SHUT. THIS IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK IF I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRAVELING. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A RECALL ON THIS BECAUSE I HAVE DONE NOTHING AND I WAS TOLD BY MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP THAT I WILL HAVE TO PAY $370.00 TO GET IT FIXED AND I JUST DON'T SEE THAT AS FAIR AND REASONABLE. *TR

THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL CONSTANTLY STAYS ON AFTER I'VE ALREADY MADE SURE THE DOOR WAS SHUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. MY INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT SHUT OFF UNTIL I'VE SLAMMED THE DOOR ABOUT 5-6 TIMES. IT'S REALLY HARD TO TELL IF THEY'VE SHUT OFF IN THE DAYTIME AND SO I'M FEARFUL I MAY COME OUT TO MY BATTERY BEING DEAD. IT ALSO SCARES ME TO SEE IT COME ON WHILE I'M DRIVING WITH MY DAUGHTER AS I'M UNSURE WHETHER THE DOOR IS PROPERLY LATCHED. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL SO THAT ALL DRIVERS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE CAN GET THIS FIXED IMMEDIATELY. *TR

WENT TO STOP BEHIND A TRUCK AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN I PUSHED DOWN ON THE BRAKE PETAL IT FELT SPONGY AND MY CAR WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL I PUSHED EXTREMELY HARD. THEN MY PETAL KEPT GOING DOWN FURTHER TO THE FLOOR. I PLACE MY CAR IN PARK GEAR AND CONTINUED TO HOLD THE BRAKE PETAL DOWN. MY CAR BEGAN MAKING A SQUEALING NOISE WHICH STOPPED WHEN I LET THE BRAKE PETAL UP. I PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND DROVE A COUPLE MORE BLOCKS WITH BRAKES STILL SPONGY AND NOT VERY RESPONSIVE. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR NOW AND WILL HAVE IT TOWED IN. I WAS SUPPOSE TO DRIVE TO MY CABIN YESTERDAY WHICH HAS A 35 MIN DRIVE THROUGH A CANYON WITH A 500 FOOT CLIFF ON ONE SIDE. THANKFULLY I DID NOT GO! *TR

DOOR SENSOR AJAR MALFUNCTIONING. DOME LIGHT IN CAR STAYING ON CAUSING NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD. DOORS NOT LOCKING WHILE DRIVING DUE TO SENSOR MALFUNCTION. SENSOR INCORPORATED IN DOOR LATCH. DOOR LATCH HAS TO BE REPLACED TO RECTIFY. *TR

DOOR ALWAYS INDICATE OPEN. BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE THE CAR CAN'T BE LOCK. ALSO THE LIGHT INSIDE IS ALWAYS ON CAN'T BE TURN OFF AND THIS IS A DRIVING HAZAR. *TR

WHILE DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET, VEHICLE GOING UP A HILL THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. THE ENGINE DIED (ZERO RPM INDICATED.) A FEW SECONDS LATER, THE "LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE" WARNING WAS DISPLAYED. LOSS OF POWER STEERING/BRAKES. VEHICLE WAS CAREFULLY MANEUVERED OFF THE HIGHWAY. ATTEMPTED TO RESTART REPEATEDLY. ENGINE WOULD ONLY RUN FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN DIED. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO THE FORD DEALER. NO ENGINE TROUBLE CODES DETECTED. AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT, VEHICLE STARTED AND RAN WITHOUT ISSUE. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD WHEN A VEHICLE STALLS AT HIGH SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED....NOT ALLOWING THE DOOR TO LOCK WHILE IN MOTION. *TR

FORD EDGE SPORT 2012. DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILS AND/OR GIVES FALSE READINGS. DRIVER SIDE CONSOLE DISPLAYS DOOR OPEN INDICATOR. I HAVE TO REPEATEDLY OPEN AND CLOSE TO THE DOOR TO CLEAR THE INDICATOR LIGHT. IT USUALLY HAPPENS RIGHT WHEN I ENTER THE VEHICLE BUT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. I PULLED OVER AND OPENED/CLOSED THE DOOR TO CLEAR THE MESSAGE. *TR

FORD EDGE SPORT 2012. STRANGE HISSING SOUND WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. I HAVE TO APPLY SLIGHTLY MORE PRESSURE BEFORE VEHICLE COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP. POSSIBLE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE AS INDICATED BY FORD NOTICE "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02." *TR

DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR NOT WORKING PROPERLY. DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLEARLY CLOSED. BECAUSE OF THIS, THE INSIDE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. WHEN FIRST ENTERING VEHICLE IN THE MORNINGS, INTERIOR LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON. BECAUSE OF THIS I AM UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHEN DRIVING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT CONTINUOUSLY ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS SECURED. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE INTERIOR AND THE HEAD LIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE CAUSING THE BATTERY TO DRAIN. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENTIRE DOOR LOCK MECHANISM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

THE SENSOR FOR THE DOOR AJAR ON THE DRIVER SIDE IS BAD AND I CANNOT LOCK MY DRIVER DOOR DUE TO THE ALARM SOUND FROM MY DISPLAY PANEL. THE DOOR AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKS PUTTING MY SAFETY AT RISK IN PARKING LOTS, DANGEROUS AREAS, AND WHEN I AM DRIVING. THE FORD DEALER TELLS ME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO HUNDREDS OF THESE VEHICLES AND IS AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURER ISSUE BUT THERE IS NO RECALL AS OF YET. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE INABILITY TO LOCK THE DOOR WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR LOCK THE DOOR WHEN YOU ENTER THE VEHICLE FOR PERSONAL SAFETY. *TR

THE SENSOR IN MY DRIVERS DOOR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE DOOR IS CLOSED. AS I'M DRIVING THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS FLASH ON AND OFF BECAUSE THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM THINKS THE DOOR IS OPENING. ALSO THE VEHICLE ALERTS ME WITH EVERY BUMP I HIT IN THE ROAD THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR WITH A SCREEN ALERT AND RINGING BELL. I BROUGHT THIS TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SPENT $150 TO HAVE IT CLEANED WHICH HELPED FOR 6 MONTHS AND NOW IT IS ACTING UP AGAIN. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED HOWEVER, THE DOOR WAS CLOSED IN A SECURE POSITION. IN ADDITION, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ACTIVATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS OPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000. UPDATED 04/13/15*LJ UPDATED 6/29/2015*JS

DRAMATIC AND SUDDEN LOW PRESSURE IN BRAKES. PITCH SOUND WHEN YOU PUT THE BRAKE TO END. HIGH RISK OF COLLUSION! FORD SAID NO RECALL RELATED EXIST, BUT MORE THAN THAT FORD DEALER FORMERLY SAID IS NO PROBLEM. I WENT TO PEP BOYS (FOR A THIRD VERIFICATION) AND THE CONCLUSION ISSUE WAS THE BOOSTER REPLACEMENT NEEDED. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING SIMILAR COMPLAINT IN THE SAME VEHICLE/MODEL/YEAR AS I EVIDENCED HERE IN THE NHTSA WEB PAGE. AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS IS SUGGESTED. BRAKES ARE SECURITY!!!! THANKS. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING SENSOR STAYS ON. THIS CAUSED INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON. TOOK HOURS TO "FOOL" THE SYSTEM TO GET WARNING SENSOR TO DEACTIVATE, CONSEQUENTLY ALL LIGHTS WENT OUT. FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT SWORE THEY NEVER HEARD OF THIS YET OWNER COMPLAINTS ARE ALL OVER THE INTERNET. *TR

DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED, INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON, INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHEN IN VEHICLE. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON, TELLING ME THAT MY DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME HAPPENING IN A 6 MONTH PERIOD.... *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR WAS CLOSED SECURELY. IN ADDITION, THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHERE THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWO YEARS LATER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

THE DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS SHUT COMPLELELY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FOUR INTERIOR DOORS FAILED TO LOCK. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED EVEN WHEN THE DOORS WERE CLOSED SECURELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO SPRAYED A LUBRICANT TO THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTING REMAINED LIT. ALSO, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOORS WERE NOT ABLE TO BE LOCKED FROM THE INSIDE DUE TO A FAULTY DOOR LATCH. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,000.

MY 2012 FORD EDGE HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING SOME ELECTRICAL ISSUES. ONE OF THEM BEING THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT. THIS WARNING LIGHT WILL KEEP MY INSIDE LIGHTS ON IF I AM NOT ABLE TO CLEAR THE WARNING. I USUALLY NEED TO SLAM THE DOOR A COUPLE OF TIMES AND IF THAT DOESN'T WORK THEN I NEED TO RESTART THE CAR AND CLOSE THE DOOR AND THEN TURN THE CAR OFF AND USUALLY THIS WILL CLEAR IT. I HEAR THIS IS HAPPENING TO QUITE A FEW FORD VEHICLES AND THINK THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO FOR A RECALL. IF YOU DON'T REALIZE THAT YOUR CARS INSIDE LIGHTS STAY ON THEN IT COULD DRAIN YOUR BATTERY AND LEAVE YOU STRANDED. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHT GOES ON AT INSTRUMENT PANEL SHOWING DRIVER'S DOOR IS AJAR. ACTUALLY THE DOOR IS SECURE AND CLOSED. THIS HAPPENS AT CERTAIN TIMES AND NOT ALL THE TIME. *TR

DOOR AJAR WARNING CONSTANTLY ON EVER AFTER OPENING AND CLOSING DOOR SEVERAL TIME. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND REPAIR MADE, BUT IN JUNE 2014 THE ISSUE BEGAN AGAIN (APPROX 21000 MILES). RETURNED TO DEALER SECOND TIME AND THEY REPLACED THE PART. NOW AT 32000 MILES THE ISSUE CONTINUES CAUSING SAFETY CONCERNS WITH DOORS NOT LOCKING WHEN DRIVING WITH THIS ISSUE. WHEN MANUALLY PUSHING DOWN THE DOOR LOCKS, THE DOORS WILL IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK AUTOMATICALLY. EVERY TIME I BRAKE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TURN ON AND THE WARNING CHIME SOUNDS. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN WITH MY FIVE YEAR OLD IN MY CAR. NOW THE WARRANTY IS EXPIRED AND IT WILL COST NEARLY $500 TO FIX SINCE FORD REFUSES TO RECALL THE DEFECTIVE DOOR SWITCHES/LATCHES. *TR

THE DRIVER DOOR LATCH SENSOR WENT BAD. IT KEEPS SAYING THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. WHEN IT IS NOT. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE. FOR EXAMPLE, WHAT IF I DON'T CLOSE MY DOOR COMPLETELY, I WOULD EXPECT THIS WARNING TO COME ON. BUT RIGHT NOW THE DOOR WARNING IS ALWAYS ON. SO I REALLY DON'T KNOW IF MY DOOR IS PROPERLY CLOSED OR NOT. SO FAR I AM "SLAMMING MY DOOR SHUT" TO ENSURE THAT IT IS PROPERLY CLOSED. *TR

IT BEGAN SUDDENLY WHEN TURNING THE CAR ON WITH A HIGH PITCHED WHINING SOUND. UPON TAKING IT TO THE DEALER IT WAS SAID THAT THE POWER STEERING LINES WERE CRIMPED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. (IT SEEMS TO ME TO BE A DEFECT BELONGING TO FORD), HOWEVER NOT THE CASE. HAD IT FIXED FOR $700. NOW IN FEBRUARY 2015 , THEY SAY THE POWER STEERING PUMP IS GOING BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH A NEW RESERVOIR AND FLUSHING OF THE LINES. AGAIN NOT COVERED BY FORD. THIS CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED BY THE OWNER FOR OIL CHANGES AND REGULAR MAINTENANCE. *TR

DRIVER DOOR OPEN SENSOR WENT OFF CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON AND ALARM START GOING OFF. THIS WAS AT 8:30 PM ON A RURAL ROAD. I LOST MY NIGHT VISION AND SWERVED OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD CAUSING MY 11 YEAR OLD TO STRIKE HER HEAD ON THE SIDE WINDOW OF THE VEHICLE AND DAMAGE TO THE FRONT SPOILER. THIS SENSOR HAS BEEN REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND TSB WAS ISSUED BY FORD 6 MONTHS AGO. THE POLICE OFFICER THAT CAME SAID HIS BROTHER HAS A FORD F-150 THAT THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO HIM AND HE TOTALED HIS TRUCK AT NIGHT. AFTER DOING AN INTERNET SEARCH FOR FORD DRIVER DOOR OPEN WHILE DRIVING AND FOUND NUMEROUS WEBSITES DEDICATED TO THE PROBLEM AND IMMENSE NUMBER OF ACCIDENTS. HOW LONG CAN FORD GET AWAY WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE DIES IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY? *TR

THE FUEL FILLER DOOR DID NOT CLOSE CORRECTLY AND THE EMISSION SYSTEM SENT A WARNING. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR SENSOR NOT WORKING PROPERLY. DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLEARLY CLOSED. BECAUSE OF THIS, THE INSIDE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. WHEN FIRST ENTERING VEHICLE IN THE MORNINGS, INTERIOR LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON. *JS

THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR SWITCH IS HAVING INTERMITTENT ISSUES AND AT TIMES IS SHOWING AN ALARM "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" THAT THE DOOR WAS NOT CLOSED EVEN THOUGH IT WAS. PLEASE FIX ASAP. MANY DRIVERS WITH SAME MAKE AND MODEL ARE HAVING THE SAME ONGOING ISSUE. RECALL NEEDS TO BE SET IN PLACE. *TR

DOOR LATCH DOES NOT REGISTER THE DOOR AS BEING CLOSED. THIS RESULTS IN THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR BEING LIT WHEN THE DOOR IS LOCKED. THIS IMPAIRS THE ABILITY TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF. *TR

-DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED -INTERIOR LIGHTS STAYS ON -INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN VEHICLE -FAULTY LATCH *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR'S WERE INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE SENSOR LATCHES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000.

THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR SWITCH WAS HAVING INTERMITTENT ISSUES AND AT TIMES WAS SHOWING AN ALARM THAT THE DOOR WAS NOT CLOSED EVEN THOUGH IT WAS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE DOOR LOCKS WOULD DE-ENERGIZE AND UNLOCK EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS MOVING. THIS PROBLEM WOULD ALSO CAUSE THE EXTERIOR & INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED OFF DRAINING THE BATTERY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED BY FORD. *TR

I HAVE A 2012 FORD EDGE AND WHEN THE WEATHER STARTED TO GET REALLY COLD (WE LIVE IN NORTH CENTRAL MN) I BEGAN TO HEAR A WHINING NOISE WHEN I WOULD FIRST START MY VEHICLE. AS SOON AS IT WOULD WARM UP, THE NOISE WOULD STOP. THIS WENT ON FOR A ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE I ASKED MY HUSBAND ABOUT IT. BY THAT TIME WE WERE HAVING BELOW ZERO WEATHER. HE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST DUE TO THE COLD WEATHER AND I ALWAYS MADE SURE THAT I LET THE VEHICLE WARM UP REALLY GOOD. A FEW WEEKS LATER HE CHECKED THE POWER STEERING FLUID AND IT WAS A LITTLE BIT LOW. WE ADDED FLUID AND IT WAS FINE FOR A FEW WEEKS. THEN THE NOISE STARTED AGAIN AND, WHEN HE LOOKED, THE LEVEL WAS BELOW MINIMUM. HE COULDN'T FIND A LEAK ANYWHERE, THOUGH. WE STARTED TO SMELL THE FLUID WHEN IT WOULD DRIP ON TO THE EXHAUST. WE HAD A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND THE HOSE IS LEAKING. WE HAD THEM ORDER THE HOSE (WHICH WAS $200!!) AND IT JUST CAME TODAY BUT I HAVEN'T HAD IT INSTALLED YET. I CALLED THE DEALER, WHICH IS 2 HOURS AWAY, AND LEFT A MESSAGE. I WANT TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANY KIND OF A RECALL ON THIS. NOTHING LIKE THIS SHOULD HAPPEN TO A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD!! I HAD A 7 YEAR OLD VAN PRIOR TO THIS THAT DIDN'T HAVE ANY MECHANICAL PROBLEMS. I AM DISAPPOINTED. *TR

INITIALLY HEARD WHINING NOISE, MAINLY IN FIRST 10-20 MINUTES OF DRIVING ON COOL DAYS (AROUND 60 DEGREES). WHINE BECAME CONSTANT IN COLD WEATHER. IN DECEMBER VEHICLE WAS UNEXPECTEDLY DIFFICULT TO STEER DURING PARKING MANEUVERS. DIAGNOSED 12/26 AS LEAKING POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE. *TR

SUMMARY: DRIVING AND MESSAGE APPEARS ON DASH CLUSTER TELLING ME THAT MY DRIVER DOOR AJAR AND DOME LIGHT COMES ON AND DOORS WON'T LOCK! CALLED DEALERSHIP AND NO RECALL ISSUED BUT COST OF REPAIR IS A RIDICULOUS $300-$500! APPARENTLY THERE ARE A LOT OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS LIKE THIS ALL OVER THE PLACE AND THE DEALERSHIP EVEN SAID THAT ITS VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE EDGE. I FEEL THAT THIS IS UNSAFE WHILE I'M DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY BECAUSE OF THE DISTRACTION OF THE "DINGING" SOUND AS WELL AS THE DOME LIGHT WHILE NIGHT DRIVING! THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL IN MY OPINION BEING THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE OBVIOUSLY. *TR

DRIVER SIDE DOOR ALERT DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT DOOR IS CLOSED. DOME LIGHT IS ON WHILE DRIVING, AND CHIMES GO OFF. AFTER EVERY STOP, CHIME AND DISPLAY SAYS TO SHIFT TO PARK. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WITH FOB. *TR
