SHE FILLED THE CAR, THEN GOT BACK INSIDE AND STARTED THE CAR. SHE RECEIVED THE LEFT PASSENGER DOOR AJAR WARNING, EVEN THOUGH SHE HAD NOT OPENED THAT DOOR EITHER LEAVING HOME OR AT THE GAS STATION. SHE GOT OUT SHUT THE DOOR. THE WARNING SUBSIDED AND SHE WENT ON HER WAY. 3. WE'VE ENCOUNTERED THE SAME PROBLEM THE LAST THREE DAYS, AS ITEM 1 ABOVE, PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY, PARKED AT THE STORE.

DOOR AJAR ISSUE. RESULTS IN DOOM LIGHT NOT TURNING OFF. VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. ISSUE HAPPENED ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO, AT TIME OF PURCHASE. IT WAS CORRECTED, AND NOW IT IS AGAIN AN ISSUE. 12\20/17
THE BREAKS GO OUT THEY GET SPONGY OR NO POWER THIS ISSUES STARTS AND STOPS I NEVER KNOW WHEN ITS GOING TO HAPPEN THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 3 MONTHS NOW ALSO THE CAR SMELL LIKE EGGS FROM TIME TO TIME
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE GEAR SHIFT WAS IN DRIVE, AN ERROR MESSAGE APPEARED STATING THAT THE SHIFT WAS IN PARK. THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO C WIMBERLEY FORD (56081 M 51 S, DOWAGIAC, MI 49047) WHERE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,743.
THE "DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE CONTINUES TO COME ON AND STAY ON; EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR HAS BEEN CLOSED CORRECTLY. THIS IS THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. THIS OCCURS CONSTANTLY. IT CONTINUES TO MAKE RINGING SOUNDS WHICH ARE DISRUPTIVE WHILE DRIVING. IT OCCURS WHEN PARKED, OR DRIVING.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE WITH 48,000 MILES HAS A VERY ANNOYING DRIVER DOOR AJAR ERROR MESSAGE. THIS MESSAGE WILL NOT GO AWAY WHEN IT'S VERY OBVIOUS MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS CLOSED. MY INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON AT NIGHT TIME FOR UNSPECIFIED AMOUNTS OF TIME MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. THIS ISSUE ALSO IS DRAINING MY BATTERY AS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AFTER CLOSING AND ARMING THE ALARM. FORD IS CHARGING 125 DOLALRS JUST TO LOOK AT THE ISSUE THEN ANOTHER 400-500 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE PARTS WITH THE SAME REPORTED DEFECTIVE PARTS. TOTALLY RIDICULOUS ON FORD'S PART. I WILL NEVER EVER PURCHASE ANOTHER FORD VEHICLE AGAIN.
WHEN I ACCELERATE TO HIGHWAY SPEED I GET AN EXHAUST SMELL INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. I HAVE BEEN TO MY DEALER 4 TIMES AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A HEALTH ISSUE. I AM UPLOADING MY SERVICE RECORDS FOR YOUR PERUSAL. THIS BEGAN IN MAY 2016 AND CONTINUES TO THE PRESENT (12/2017).
WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE IN PARK AND SHUTTING OFF VEHICLE YELLOW WARNING LIGHT IN DASH APPEARS "SHIFT TO PARK" ACCOMPANIED WITH A WARNING NOISE
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A NOISE COMING FROM THE HALF SHAFT AND LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE HALF SHAFT SEPARATED FROM THE LINK SHAFT, CAUSING THE STEERING WHEEL TO LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND THE DEALER WERE NOT CONTACTED IN REGARDS TO THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.
THE DRIVES DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON. YOU DO NOT KNOW IF YOUR DOOR IS CLOSED OR NOT. EVERYONE WITH THIS PROBLEM WILL EVENTUALLY IGNORE THIS LIGHT EVEN WHEN THERE DOOR MAY BE OPEN. IT IS OBVIUS THE SAFETY PROBLEMS THIS COULD CAUSE.
WHEN THE WINDSHIELD WIPER SPEED CONTROL IS TURNED OFF, THE WIPER CONTINUES TO RUN. HAVE NOT FOUND A WAY TO MAKE IT STOP. SEARCHING DATABASES ONLINE, REVEALS A PROBLEM THAT IS QUITE COMMON. THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED BY THE MANUFACTURER DUE TO EARLY FAILURE AND A LARGE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS.
MOTOR DIES WHILE DRIVING . TURN OFF KEY WILL START BACK , MOTOR WILL DIE ON CITY STREET AND ON HIGHWAY AT ANY SPEED CAN NOT FIND OUT WHY
DOOR AJAR WARNING. THE CAR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE WHEN YOU SHUT THE DOOR. WHEN YOU START THE CAR THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE WARNING LIGHT FOR DOOR AJAR STAYS ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE ERROR CODE SHIFT TO PARK DINGS EVERYTIME YOU TAKE OFF FROM A STOP. THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING AND IN MOTION. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO LOCK THE DOORS MANUALLY THEY IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK. WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND LOCKED FROM THE FOB THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ILLUMINATED FOR AN EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME. THIS IS VERY DRAINING ON THE BATTERY.
STARTING IN FEBRUARY 2017, THE 'DRIVER DOOR AJAR' WARNING INDICATOR WOULD NOT TURN OFF WHEN THE DRIVER DOOR WAS CLOSED. THE VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 90,000MILES. NONE OF THE THREE PASSENGER DOORS OR THE TAILGATE HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE. AT FIRST THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT. I TRIED TO LUBRICATE THE LATCH WITH SILICON SPRAY AND THE PROBLEM WOULD GO AWAY FOR A WEEK, THEN COME BACK. IT PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE UNTIL JUNE OF 2017, WHEN THE PROBLEM WOULD NOT GO AWAY AT ALL. SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT REPEATEDLY DID NOT WORK, THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYED ON. BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, IT'S HARD TO TELL IF THE DOOR IS REALLY CLOSED OR NOT. IF THE DOOR IS NOT LATCHED PROPERLY, IT WOULD BE A SEVERE SAFETY CONCERN. IN ADDITION, THE DOORS NO LONGER LOCK, NEITHER AUTOMATICALLY NOR USING THE LOCK SWITCH WHICH ALSO PRESENTS A SAFETY CONCERN. ANOTHER RESULT OF THIS PROBLEM IS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT GO OUT WHEN THE CAR IS OFF AND THE DOOR CLOSED WHICH HAS DRAINED THE BATTERY ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN, ESPECIALLY IN VIEW OF THE DOORS NOT LOCKING WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THE UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THE DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED.
I SMELL CARBON MONOXIDE INSIDE THE TRUCK. IT SMELLS WHEN CAR IS RUNNING AND I'M COMING TO A STOP OR DRIVING SLOWLY OR PULLING INTO THE GARAGE.
THE DOOR LATCHES USED ON THE 2013 EDGE (AND OTHER MODELS) CONTAINS THE SENSOR THAT DETECTS THE DOOR BEING CLOSED. IN MY INSTANCE, THE ISSUE IS WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. WHEN THE SWITCH DOES NOT DETECT THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED, THE DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL THE VEHICLE ACHIEVES A CERTAIN SPEED AND THE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED WHILE THE CAR IS STARTED. AT NIGHT, THE DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON HINDERS VISION AND POSES POSSIBLE INJURY AND DAMAGE TO ANY PEDESTRIANS OR OBJECTS THAT MAY BE IN THE WAY OF THE CAR WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE ALMOST HIT A TREE LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY SINCE I COULD NOT EVEN SEE THE DRIVEWAY. I FEAR HITTING PEDESTRIANS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WHILE ON THE WAY TO WORK, SINCE I LEAVE BEFORE SUNRISE. AS FOR THE DOORS NOT LOCKING WHILE THE CAR IS STARTED, THIS COULD POSE A SAFETY ISSUE TO THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE ALLOWING FOR ACCESS TO BE EASILY OBTAINED TO THE INTERIOR IN THE INSTANCE OF CARJACKING, ETC.
DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR SENSOR ALWAYS STATES THE DOOR IS OPEN, WON'T TURN OF INTERIOR LIGHTS SO AFFECTING VISION WHILE DRIVING. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON ONE DUE TO DOOR NOT CLOSED SO BATTERY IS DYING. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING VERY DANGEROUS FOR SMALL CHILDREN . CHILD SAFETY LOCK WILL NOT WORK DUE TO THE SENSOR SAYING THE DOOR IS OPEN
MY WIFE COMPLAINED OF THE SMELL OF ROTTEN EGGS AND A SEVERE HEADACHE WHILE DRIVING WITH THE CLIMATE CONTROL ON, WHEN SHE SHUT IT OFF AND OPENED THE WINDOWS IT DISSIPATED. THIS IS A CONDITION COMMON TO BREATHING CARBON MONOXIDE, I'M A RETIRED, UNION TRAINED, HEATING AND COOLING SPECIALIST. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO OUR LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND AFTER THEY LOOKED AT IT THEY CLAIMED WE WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A $2000+ REPAIR RELATED TO FORD SERVICE BULLETIN TSB 14-0201 (EXHAUST SULFUR ODOR AFTER HARD ACCELERATION - CLIMATE CONTROL IN RECIRCULATION MODE ONLY). THE ABOVE IS A FALSE STATEMENT SINCE IT OCCURS IN ANY, CLIMATE CONTROL, MODE. THIS BULLETIN COVERS HOW TO REMOVE THE EXHAUST AND CLEAN AREAS OF THE UNDERCARRIAGE WHERE SEAM SEALER AND EXPANDABLE FOAM IS TO BE APPLIED. THIS IS FORDS RESPONSIBILITY SINCE IT IS A DEFECT IN SOME (2011-2014 EDGE, 2011-2015 MKX) OF THERE PRODUCT LINE. THE DATE BELOW IS NOT EXACT SINCE IT IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP ASAP!!
"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 DRIVING. SOMETIMES CAR DOORS WON'T LOCK AFTER EXITING CAR IN NON-SECURE AREAS SUCH AS PARKING LOTS, ETC.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF. I HAVE TO SLAMMED MY DOOR SEVERAL TIMES IN ORDER FOR THE LIGHT TO GO OFF. NOW THE LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF AND IM UNABLE TO LOCK MY DOOR. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY 2 TIMES BECAUSE IT DRAINS THE POWER. MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR EVEN OPENED AS I WAS MAKING A TURN. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER A RECALL. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. THIS MATTER SHOULD BE LOOKED AT VERY CLOSELY AND SWIFTLY AND FOR THOSE WHO HAD TO PAY $400 - $450 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED SHOULD BE REIMBURSED BY FORD FOR SAFETY ISSUES.
THE REAR WIPER STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH THE SWITCH IS IN OFF POSITION. IT HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND WHILE STATIONARY.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DRIVERS DOOR IS SHUT. THIS ALSO CAUSES THE DOORS NOT TO LOCK WHEN ENGAGED IN THE DRIVE MODE.
BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE. HEARD A HISSING NOISE WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED. FOUND A 'EXTENDED WARRANTY' FOR THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER. MY VEHICLE FALLS 2 MONTHS PAST THE CUT OFF. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A MAJOR MANUFACTURER DEFECT THAT SHOULD INCLUDE ALL VEHICLES.
THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR 'DOOR OPEN' LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE OVERHEAD LIGHT WILL STAY ON AND DISTRACT ME WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. IT WILL ALSO DRAIN THE BATTERY WHEN THE IGNITION IS TURNED OFF BECAUSE IT DOES NOT REGISTER THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED.
MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL BE CLOSED PROPERLY AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL TURN ON.
ORIGINALLY OCCURRED IN 2015. AT THAT TIME THE DEALER INDICATED THAT SOP WAS TO CLEAN CONTACTS NOT REPLACE COMPONENT. THE CLEANING WORKED UNTIL THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. NOW THE DOOR DOES NOT REGISTER IN THE SYSTEM AS CLOSED AT ANY TIME. THE DOOR IS CLOSED BUT THE SYSTEM DOES NOT SEE IT AS CLOSED. DOOR REMAINS UNLOCKED BECAUSE SYSTEM DOES NOT SEE IT CLOSED. ANTI-THEFT DOES NOT WORK BECAUSE SYSTEM DOES NOT SEE DOOR AS CLOSED. LIGHTS REMAIN ON FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME WHEN THE DOORS ARE CLOSED. GET WARNING THAT DOOR IS OPEN, WHEN IT IS CLOSED.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT ALWAYS STAYS ON AND AT TIMES DOORS DON'T LOCK.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR REMAINS ON WITH DOOR CLOSED. CANNOT LOCK DOORS AND LIGHTS DRAIN BATTERY.
THE DRIVERS SEAT ROCKS/SHIFTS BACK AND FORTH WHEN TAKING OFF AND STOPPING. AFTER DOING RESEARCH THIS HAS COME UP AS A COMMON ISSUE WITH SIMILAR FORDS IN THE PAST FEW YEARS. SEEMS TO BE THE 'SEAT TRACK', IT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A FAULTY ITEM ON FORD EDGE MODELS ALL THE WAY FROM VERY BEGINNING OF VEHICLES HITTING THE MARKET,
RECEIVED A NOTICE IN THE MAIL ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FROM TK HOLDINGS, INC.
REAR DOOR SENSOR WILL NOT GO OFF, RESULTS IN DOME LIGHT STAYING ON RUNNING BATTERY DOWN. WIPERS WILL NOT SHUT OFF
SHIFT TO PARK WE HAVE CONTINUED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THIS PROBLEM EVEN AFTER SPENDING $313 ON 9/23/15 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED (CURRENT DATE IS 10/29/17). WE PUT IT IN PARK & TURN OFF THE CAR, BUT WE GET THE MESSAGE TO "SHIFT TO PARK" ON THE SCREEN & THE SCREEN WON'T GO OFF WHICH THEN CAN RUN OUT THE BATTERY. IT GETS TO THE POINT WHERE THE CAR WON'T EVEN START. SEEMS LIKE MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN POSTED ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM ON DIFFERENT MODELS. FORD SHOULD HAVE REPAIRED THIS FOR FREE &/OR SHOULD REIMBURSE ANY ONE WHO HAS HAD TO PAY FOR IT.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON DASH ALWAYS ON WHEN IGNITION KEY IS INSERTED - DOORS SECURELY LATCHED - DOME LIGHTS STAY ON, DRAINING BATTERY - DOORS WON'T LOCK FOR SAFETY IN MOTION - DEALER TRYING TO ACT LIKE THEY NEVER HEARD OF IT, ALTHOUGH THOUSANDS MENTIONED ONLINE - VEHICLE HAS 30600 MILES
LEAKING PTU. $1800 TO REPAIR. READ ON INTERNET THAT'S IT'S A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM CAUSED BY A DESIGN ISSUE. THERE IS NO WAY TO DRAIN FLUSH AND REFILL THE PTU APPARENTLY SOME COMPANIES ARE DRILLING AND TAPPING THE UNIT TO ADD A NEEDED PLUG. FORD WAS NOT INTERESTED IN ADDRESSING THE PROBLEM. MY CASE NUMBER WITH FORD IS CAS 13398813
A COUPLE WEEKS AGO THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT APPEARED. I'VE REPEATEDLY CHECKED THE CONDITION OF THE DOORS AND LIGHT DOESN'T GO OFF. I'VE READ OF THE PROBLEM ON LINE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE, EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR, AND KNOWN TO CAUSE ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY LIFE AND OPERATION OF THE LOCKING/ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.
I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JULY OF LAST YEAR, IT IS NOW OCTOBER. MY HEAT WORKED FINE THIS PAST WINTER BUT SINCE TRYING TO USE IT THIS YEAR SINCE IT HAS STARTED GETTING COLDER, ALL I GET IS COLD AIR. I HAVE EVEN HAD THE THERMOSTAT REPLACED WHICH MADE IT WORK FOR A DAY BUT HAD TO TAKE MY CAR BACK IN 2 DAYS AFTER THE REPAIR. MY MECHANIC SAID IT IS THE COMPUTER WHICH I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING ABOUT IN MY WARRANTY GUIDE. I KNOW I AM NOT THE FIRST ONE TO HAVE THESE ISSUES AS I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE. IT WOULD BE GREAT IF I COULD GET SOME HELP GETTING THIS ISSUE RESOLVED SOON DUE TO MY 3 YOUNG CHILDREN.
DOOR AJAR WARNING WILL NOT SHUT OFF. DRIVERS DOOR.
2ND TIME I GET THE SHIFT TO PARK ERROR. FORD FIXED IT 1 TIME ALREADY UNDER WARRANTY AND NOW I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN AND IT'S OUT OF WARRANTY. IF YOU DON'T RESOLVE THE ISSUE BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE VEHICLE, IT WILL KILL YOUR BATTERY.
DRIVERS DOOR KEEPS TELLING ME DOOR IS AJAR. I HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR AND OPEN IT SEVERAL TIMES TO CLEAR THE MESSAGE. IF YOU DON'T CLEAR THE MESSAGE, IT COULD KILL YOUR BATTERY. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS FROM FORD OWNERS ON THIS EXACT ISSUE.
THE DOORS SENSORS OF THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS ARE FAULTY, CAUSING THE CAR TO REGISTER THEM AS "OPEN" ALL THE TIME. THIS CAUSES DOOR LOCKS TO DEFAULT TO UNLOCKED, EVEN WHILE DRIVING, REGARDLESS OF SPEED. THIS CAUSES A FALL HAZARD, A CARJACKING HAZARD, AND AN ABDUCTION HAZARD FOR ME AND MY CHILDREN. IT ALSO CAUSES THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHILE BEGINNING TO DRIVE UNTIL THE CAR REACHES SPEEDS OVER 10 MPH. THIS CAUSES A PROBLEM WHILE IN REVERSE IN PARKING LOTS, AS THE LIGHTS DECREASES VISIBILITY TO ALMOST NOTHING AND PREVENTS ME FROM SEEING CARS CROSSING BEHIND ME AND PARKED ON MY PASSENGER SIDE.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE KEEPS TELLING ME MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS AJAR, IT KEEPS BEEPING WHEN I AM DRIVING, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN I TRY AND LOCK THE CAR WHEN I ARRIVE HOME AND THEY DON'T GO OFF AND DRAIN THE BATTERY. I ONLY HAVE 25,900 MILES ON MY CAR AND I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED INDEPENDENTLY AND THE RPMS DECREASED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE RESTARTED EVERY TIME FOR THE VEHICLE TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,000.
DIFFICULT TO STOP. PRESSING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL I HEAR A HISSING NOISE LIKE AN AIR LEAK AND A HIGH PITCHED SOUND. AFTER COMING TO A STOP THE VEHICLE STILL WANTS TO MOVE FORWARD. MUST PRESS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL REAL HARD TO GET IT TO STOP. HAVE COME CLOSE TO BEING IN AN ACCIDENT AND CURRENTLY UNABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. HAD MECHANIC CHECK VEHICLE AND THEY EXPLAINED THE BRAKE BOOSTER IS NOT WORKING AND SHOULD BE REPLACED.
BREAK BOOSTER FAILED
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SAYS IT'S AJAR WHEN IT'S CLOSED. AND YOU CANNOT LOCK THE VEHICLE AND THE LIGHT STAY ON LONGER. IT'S ONLY ON THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR. THE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING
CAPLESS GAS CAP KEEPS GIVING THE INDICATION LIGHT TO CHECK & LOSING GAS MILEAGE BUT NO SMELL OF GAS

What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
