2013 Ford Edge complaints

"DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING_. HAVE TO SHUT THE DOOR NUMEROUS TIMES IN ORDER FOR THE WARNING TO GO OFF. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON UNTIL THE DOOR IS SHUT NUMEROUS TIME WHICH HAS GOTTEN TO BE REALLY A PAIN. STARTED EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM JUST OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE MILEAGE WARRANTY. DEALER HAS REFUSED TO REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. THIS SUCKS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE CITY STREETS AND WITHOUT ANY WARNING, THE POWER STEERING KICKED OUT. I DIDN'T REALIZE THIS AND WAS ALREADY COMMITTED TO MAKING A RIGHT TURN. I HAD TO USE ALL MY STRENGTH TO MAKE THE TURN AND STAY ON THE ROAD. AFTER CLEARING THE INTERSECTION I NOTICED THE CAR WAS NOT ACCELERATING, INSTEAD IT WAS DECELERATING. THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE MAIN ROAD. I QUICKLY PUT ON MY BLINKERS. THE CAR THEN GAVE A "LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE" ERROR MESSAGE. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, WAITED A MINUTE, AND RESTARTED W. I WOULD HAVE HAD A BIG PROBLEM IF THE CAR STALLED OUT IN THE LEFT TURN OR IF I COULDN'T OVERPOWER THE STEERING COMPONENTS AND WENT OFF THE ROAD. *TR

INSTRUMENT PANEL SHOWS DRIVER DOOR AJAR WHEN DOOR IS NOT AJAR. *TR

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE FIXING TO TURN AND THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND LOST ALL POWER TO STEERING AND BRAKES AND THE ENGINE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT DISPLAYED ON DASH. VEHICLE STARTED BACK UP AFTER A WHILE BUT HAD THE CAR TOWED IN ANYWAY TO DEALER. THE DEALER SAID THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND GAVE US THE CAR BACK. THE COMPUTER SHOULD HAVE STORED THE PROBLEM YOU WOULD THINK. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME WE HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR DIFFERENT PROBLEMS AT 24000 MILES. THIS WILL PROBABLY HAPPEN AGAIN AND SOMEBODY WILL PROBABLY GET HURT AND THEN FORD IS GOING TO HAVE A BIG PROBLEM ON THEIR HANDS. SCARED TO EVEN DRIVE THIS LEMON NOW. *TR

THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON (HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHT ON) AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK DUE TO THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT BEING ON. EVERY TIME I PRESS THE BRAKES TO STOP THE TRUCK TELL ME TO SHIFT THE TRUCK TO PARK BECAUSE OF THIS. *TR

INSTRUMENT PANEL SHOWS THE DRIVER DOOR IS OPEN, WHICH IT IS NOT, AND GIVES WARNING TO SHIFT VEHICLE TO PARK. I MUST OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR 5-12 TIMES TO GET THE WARNING TO DISAPPEAR. WHEN THE WARNING IS ON, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND THE LIGHTS ARE ON. *TR

MY VEHICLE IS A 2014 FORD EDGE WITH LESS 40,000 MILES. THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING THUS PREVENTING THE DOOR TO LOCK WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING. MY CHILD HAS OPENED THE DOOR ON MANY OCCASIONS WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND ALMOST FELL OUT. FORD IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND THERE MANY ONLINE FORUMS WITH CUSTOMERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE DATING BACK TO 2010. AND INSTEAD OF DOING RECALL FORD HAS ISSUED A TSB. *TR

WE'RE KEEPING SMELL BURNING "RUBBER BURNING" SMELL LIKE A FIRE BURN. TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS EMPTY AND NO FLUID THERE WITH NO LEAKING, I HAD TO POUR FLUID. TOOK THIS TO DEALERSHIP, THEY SEEMS DO NOT WANT TO HELP OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. THEY WERE TOLD ME IT WAS FINE, DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG WHICH THIS IS NOT FIRST TIME THAT I COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT. I HAVE DECIDED TO READ ANOTHER PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT SMELL ISSUES SO I AM NOT ONLY ONE. IT HAS ALSO NOT CONTROL VERY WELL WHEN I WAS SPEEDING. *TR

THE DOOR IS SHUT COMPLETELY AND IT IS STILL TELLING ME THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. *TR

DOOR SENSOR SHOWS DOOR JAM AND ACTUALLY IT IS SHUT AND DOOM LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF AND DOORS WILL NOT LOOK AUTO WHILE DRIVE I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH DOOR SENSOR AND MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN MADE. *TR

THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK DUE TO THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT BEING ON. EVERYTIME I PRESS THE BRAKES TO STOP THE TRUCK TELL ME TO SHIFT THE TRUCK TO PARK BECAUSE OF THIS. *TR

INSTRUMENT PANEL SHOWS DRIVER DOOR AJAR WHEN DOOR IS NOT AJAR. DOOR HAS TO BE OPENED AND CLOSED REPEATEDLY UNTIL INSTRUMENT PANEL NO LONGER SHOWS DRIVER DOOR AJAR. THIS PREVENTS THE CAR FROM BEING PROPERLY LOCKED. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL RANDOMLY COME ON WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING CABIN LIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY HAZARDOUS WHEN IT IS DARK OUT. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH MULTIPLE FORD VEHICLES AND MUST BE ADDRESSED. *TR

HEADLINER - THE HEAD LINER IN THE FORD EDGE LIMITED HAS ABOUT AN INCH GAP BETWEEN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND THE CEILING. THE MATERIAL IS ROUGHLY CUT AND WORKMANSHIP IS EXTREMELY POOR. I TOOK IT INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP THAT I USE AND THEY TOOK PICTURES AND ORDERED A NEW HEADLINER, AFTER 6 MONTHS OF BEING BACKORDERED, THE NEW HEADLINER CAME IN AND WAS REPLACED AND HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. MY FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER TO MAKE IT RIGHT AND I WOULD HAVE TO SAY IT LOOKS BETTER BUT THE MATERIAL EDGES ARE STILL FRAYED ALL ALONG THE WINDSHIELD AND FOR THE COST OF THE CAR I'D EXPECT MORE. AN EXTRA 2" IN MATERIAL AND A PIECE OF FOAM RUBBER WOULD ALLOW THE MATERIAL TO HAVE A FINISHED LOOK AND FILL THE GAP AT LITTLE EXTRA COST AND WOULD MAKE ANYONE NOTICING THIS MUCH HAPPIER. I WAS GIVEN A LOANER AND NOTICED THE SAME ISSUE ON THE FUSION TITANIUM AND WHEN I SPOKE TO MY SERVICE REP HE STATED THAT IT'S PRETTY MUCH LIKE THIS ON ALL CARS AND THAT THEY ONLY ADDRESS THOSE THAT COMPLAIN - HE SAID NOT MANY PEOPLE NOTICE SINCE THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD IS BLACK. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT HAS TO LOOK SO CHEAP AND TACKY. EMAILS TO FORD HAVE SO FAR GONE UNANSWERED. *TR

AROUND 8/25/2014 I NOTICED MY BREAKS MAKING A FUNNY HISSING NOISE WHEN I PUSHED ON THE BRAKES. IT SEEMED TO BE BRAKING (STOPPING) FINE, BUT STILL WORRIED ME. I TOLD MY HUSBAND ABOUT IT A COUPLE DAYS LATER AND HE WAS UNSURE OF THE PROBLEM. AS DAYS PASSED, THE BRAKES GOT WEAKER AND WEAKER (TAKING A LOT LONGER TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP). I NOW HAVE TO START BRAKING A LOT FURTHER BACK THAN NORMAL TO COAST INTO A STOP. THIS MORNING (9/11/2014) I WAS ABOUT TO BACKUP INTO A PARKING SPOT IN MY COMPANIES PARKING GARAGE; WHILE I WAS PREPARING TO ANGLE MY CAR TO REVERSE INTO THE SPOT, MY BRAKES LOCKED UP AND WOULD NOT STOP! I ALMOST ROLLED INTO THE PARKED CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I HAD TO THROW MY CAR IN REVERSE BEFORE I ACTUALLY HIT THE PARKED CAR!! I AM TAKING MY CAR INTO THE DEALER FIRST THING IN THE MORNING! APPEARS FROM OTHER RECENT COMPLAINTS THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND IT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED. WHAT IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT A FASTER RATE OF SPEED WHEN MY BRAKES DECIDED TO FAIL? THIS IS PUTTING MY LIFE, MY FAMILIES LIFE, AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD AT RISK!! *TR

INSTRUMENT PANEL SHOWS DRIVER DOOR AJAR WHEN DOOR IS NOT AJAR. DOOR HAS TO BE OPENED AND CLOSED REPEATEDLY UNTIL INSTRUMENT PANEL NO LONGER SHOWS DRIVER DOOR AJAR. THIS PREVENTS THE CAR FROM BEING PROPERLY LOCKED. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL RANDOMLY COME ON WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING CABIN LIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY HAZARDOUS WHEN IT IS DARK OUT. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH MULTIPLE FORD VEHICLES AND MUST BE ADDRESSED. *TR

THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT CONTINUED TO STAY ON EVEN AFTER CLOSING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. WE "GOOGLED" THE SITUATION AND FOUND OUT THAT MANY OWNERS OF FORD EDGE VEHICLES HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM. WE TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP TO GET REPAIRED. WE DID HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT ENDED UP PAYING $150 DIAGNOSTIC FEE. THE TOTAL COST WAS $459.00 (EXTENDED WARRANTY PAID). AFTER READING THE BLOGS ABOUT THIS REPAIR, WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS BE A RECALL FOR THE VEHICLE. *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE SENSOR ALWAYS INDICATED THE DOOR WAS OPEN, SOUNDING THE CHIME, WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED TIGHT. THE REPAIR CAME TO THE TUNE OF $422.11 FOR A CAR THAT IS ONLY ONE YEAR OLD! *TR

CLOSED THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR, DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. BEEPER KEPT SOUNDING. DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK. WHEN IGNITION WAS TURNED OFF, LIGHTS (INTERIOR, PARKING, MIRROR LIGHTS STAYED ON. RADIO TURNED OFF WHEN IGNITION SWITCH WAS TURNED OFF. AUTO OPENER DID NOT WORK ON DRIVERS SIDE AND COULD NOT LOCK DOORS. *TR

GET IN, CLOSE DOOR, START FORD EDGE,...DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHTS, WARNS, CHIMES AND FLASHES PUT IN PARK, DRIVERS DOOR OPEN!! INSTANTLY UNLOCKS _A_L_L_ DOORS AND LIGHTS ALL INTERIOR UP THUS REMOVING ALL SAFETY OF LOCKED DOORS FROM UNLAWFUL AND UNSAFE INTRUSION OF OTHERS!!!! WILL NOT CANCEL OR TURN OFF. FURTHERMORE ENTIRE TIME USING EDGE FOR RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION IS RENDERED USELESS----- WHILE DOORS STAY UNLOCKED, CAN BE OPEN ANYTIME! FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD DO SOMETHING QUICK BEFORE A HORRIBLE INCIDENT HAPPENS STARTING A FLOOD OF LAWSUITS FOR ENDANGERING THE OWNERS OF FORD EDGES!! *TR

UNDER HARD ACCELERATION OR WIDE OPEN THROTTLE THE INSIDE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE IS OVER COME BY AN EXHAUST LIKE SMELL. THE VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS SINCE IT WAS NEW, THINKING IT WAS FROM THE ENGINE BREAKING IN I NEVER THOUGHT TWICE ABOUT IT. NOW AFTER MORE THAN SIX MONTHS OF HAVING THE VEHICLE AND MORE THAN 8,000 MILES, THIS IS MORE THAN NEW CAR BREAK IN SMELL. THE SMELL OCCURS 100% OF THE TIME UNDER HARD ACCELERATION OR WIDE OPEN THROTTLE, WITH OR WITHOUT THE AC ON OR IN AC RECYCLE MODE. FROM THE FORUMS THAT I HAVE READ, THE OWNERS OF FORD EDGE'S AND FORD EXPLORER'S WITH THE 3.5L V6 ARE EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE THAT I AM. THE SMELL IS OVERWHELMING TO ALL PASSENGERS THAT RIDE IN THE VEHICLE. THE MAIN CONCERN IS THAT THE SMELL IS DANGEROUS TO BREATH IN AND SECOND THAT IT'S VERY ANNOYING TO SMELL ALL THE TIME. *TR

WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS CLOSED THE DISPLAY PANEL SHOWS THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS OPEN. *TR

SENSOR KEEPS SAYING DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS OPEN AND THE DOOR IS CLOSED. YOU CAN SLAM THE DOOR HARDER AND IT STILLS BEEPS & SHOWS DOOR IS OPEN!!! *TR

THE CENTRAL COMPUTER INDICATES THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS IN FACT FULLY CLOSED. IT STAYS THAT WAY, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU CLOSE THE DOOR. *TR

THE MYTOUCH FEATURE PANEL OCCASSIONALLY LOCKS UP/FREEZES WHEN TRYING TO ACCESS ANY OF THE FEATURES. AMBIENT LIGHTING COLOR CHANGES RANDOMLY. LASTLY, THE VOLUME/ROAD VOLUME ADJUSTMENT DOES NOT WORK AND DID PRIOR TO SYNC UPDATE. *TR

THE BRAKES STOPPED WORKING ON MY CAR DUE TO A MANUFACTURE ERROR ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM. MANY COMPLAINTS WERE FILLED WITH FORD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ALTHOUGH THE DOOR WAS NOT OPEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR THEN STARTING THE VEHICLE THE "DOOR AJAR" WILL NOT GO OFF WHICH NOTIFIES THE DRIVER TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE VEHICLE MAY NOT PROTECT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS IN THE EVENT AN ACCIDENT OCCURS. I ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF TO GET GAS OR ETCETERA, IT KEEPS NOTIFYING YOU TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I THINK THIS IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE DOOR LATCH BEING FAULTY. FORD WANTS $400 TO REPAIR THIS ITEM WHICH I THINK IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AS MANY EDGE OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAULTS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14S393000 (SUSPENSION). THE DEALER PERFORMED THE RECALL REPAIR, BUT THE VEHICLE SHOOK, VIBRATED, AND WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER AFTERWARDS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,116.

THIS IS THE ISSUE OF DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYING 'ON' FOR THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS 'ON' EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS PROPERLY SHUT. IT WAS STARTED AS AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE BUT NOW THE WARNING STAYS 'ON' ALL THE TIME AND THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER SHOWS THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR STAYS OPEN ALL THE TIME. EVERY TIME I STOP, THE WARNING FOR DOOR AJAR COMES ON. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE OR NOT BUT INITIALLY EVERY TIME THE WARNING SOUNDS, I USED TO LOOK AT INSTRUMENT PANEL FOR WHAT THE WARNING IS ABOUT BUT NOW I HAVE STARTED TO IGNORE IT. I HOPE I DON'T IGNORE ANY OTHER IMPORTANT WARNINGS THAT ARE RELATED TO SAFETY. *TR

THE DRIVER DOOR SAYS ITS AJAR BUT ACTUALLY IS NOT, SO IF DRIVING AT NIGHT THE DOME LIGHTS ARE ON WITCH IS DANGEROUS AND THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK IF THE VEHICLE SYSTEM THINKS IT AJAR. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED CAUSE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE #1 DOORS WON'T LOCK. #2 INTERIOR LIGHT WON'T GO OUT IF DRIVING AT NIGHT. *TR

MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON. I SHUT THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES AND SOMETIMES IT TURNS OFF AND SOME TIMES IT DOESN'T. I THINK THE LOCK OR LATCH ON THE DOOR IS FAULTY. *TR

BACK HALF OF THE VISTA ROOF EXPLODED IN ALL FOUR CORNERS. THERE ARE SOME CRACKS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GLASS, BUT THE CORNERS ARE BLOWN OUT; ESPECIALLY TOWARDS THE REAR. THE ROOF INSIDE THE CAR LOOKS LIKE IT WAS SUCTIONED UP. I WAS DRIVING AND HEARD A VERY LOUD POP. WHEN I STOPPED TO AND CHECKED THE ROOF I FOUND THE BROKEN GLASS. THE CAR IS LIKE NEW AND THERE HAD BEEN NO PRIOR INCIDENTS OR DAMAGE TO IT. I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF THE CAR. THERE WAS NO IMPACT WHEN THIS HAPPENED; I WAS JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON A HOT SUMMER DAY. FORD CLAIMS THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE. THERE IS NO EXPLANATION AS TO HOW THIS COULD HAPPEN OTHER THAN A DEFECT IN THE GLASS OR INSTALLATION OF IT. I HAVE READ ABOUT SEVERAL OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. *JS

DOOR AJAR SENSOR INDICATES DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT CLEARLY IS NOT. THIS MAKES LOCKING THE DOORS IMPOSSIBLE AND CAUSES THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE. CAR IS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD. APPARENTLY, THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE SWITCH ASSEMBLY ACROSS NUMEROUS FORD VEHICLES. *JS

PASSENGER AIR BAG INDICATOR IS OFF WHEN MY 100# WIFE SETS IN VEHICLE. *TR

WHEN DOOR CLOSED IT DISPLAYS MESSAGE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR. *TR

PERFORMING A ROUTINE SERVICE NOTICE REAR TRANSMISSION SEAL LEAKING. UNDER PIN VERY WET WITH FLUID. *TR

THE " DRIVER DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ON CONSTANTLY. BEING A SENIOR CITIZEN, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT BEING CAR JACKED WHEN STOPPED BECAUSE THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATE WHEN THE WARNING LIGHT IS ON. ALSO, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON FOR A PERIOD OF TIME WHICH CAN ALERT A CAR JACKER. THE FORD DEALER ESTIMATE TO REPAIR THE LATCH SENSOR IS $470. *TR

PURCHASED MY 2013 FORD EDGE IN AUGUST 2013. CAR HAS 9300 MILES ON IT. LAST NIGHT THE CAR WAS PARKED OUTSIDE FOR 90 MINUTES. WHEN WE GOT BACK TO THE CAR, WE NOTICED THE BACK WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. THE WINDOW DID NOT LOOK LIKE ANYTHING HAD HIT IT. THE WINDOW SHATTERED OUTWARD. IF SOMETHING HAD IT THE WINDOW, THE WINDOW WOULD HAVE SHATTERED INWARD INTO THE CAR. WHEN WE LEFT THE CAR THE OUTSIDE TEMP WAS 77 WHEN WE GOT BACK TO THE CAR 90 MINUTES LATER, THE OUTSIDE TEMP WAS 70. SO AS NEAR AS WE CAN FIGURE OUT THE WINDOW JUST SHATTERED ON ITS OWN. *TR

REAR WINDOW COMPLETELY SMASHED WITHOUT ANY SORT OF IMPACT. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR BECOMES AJAR EVEN WHEN SHUT AND YOU HAVE TO OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR NUMEROUS TIMES TO HAVE THE ALERT GO AWAY. THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AND AT NIGHT THIS NOT SAFE. ALSO, EVERY TIME YOU START TO ACCELERATE THE CAR BEEPS AND TELLS YOU TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, WHICH IS A DISTRACTION. ALSO THIS PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON IN THE VEHICLE WHEN PARKED. IF CONTINUE TO DRIVE WHILE DOOR AJAR LAMP IS ILLUMINATED THE ALERT WILL ALSO CHIME EVERY TIME I START FROM A COMPLETE STOP WHICH VERY DISTRACTING. *JS

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DRIVER'S "DOOR AJAR" BEING ON CONSTANTLY. THE DOOR IS CLEARLY SHUT; HOWEVER, THERE IS A CONSTANT BEEPING WARNING THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN. DUE TO THIS WARNING, THE CAR WILL NOT ALLOW FOR THE DOORS TO BE LOCKED WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN HAVING TWO YOUNG CHILDREN. IN ADDITION TO THE SAFETY ISSUE MENTIONED ABOVE, THE DOME LIGHT IS NOW DELAYED FROM TURNING OFF UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE. TOOK THIS INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANTED $500 TO FIX. THIS PAST WEEKEND, I AM NOW RECEIVING A WARNING THAT MY LIFTGATE IS OPEN AS WELL. I HAD NO SUCCESS AFTER ATTEMPTING TO CLOSE THE LIFTGATE MULTIPLE TIMES. THIS LOCK MECHANISM SEEMS TO HAVE A CLEAR ISSUE WHICH FORD IS HESITANT TO ADDRESS. I REALLY HOPE THEY GET THIS FIXED ASAP OR I WILL NOT BE PURCHASING FORD PRODUCTS AGAIN. *JS

ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO WHILE GOING UP AN INCLINE THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AT THE TOP (LOST ALL POWER TO BRAKES AND STEERING) AND THE "ENGINE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON". TURNED THE KEY OFF WAITED A MINUTE AND CAR STARTED RIGHT UP. DID NOT HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL YESTERDAY 7/5/14 WHILE DRIVING (25MPH) ON LOCAL STREET (LEVEL) THE SAME THING HAPPENED CAR SHUT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING HAD TO STEP ON BRAKE UNTIL CAR WOULD STOP (LOST ALL POWER TO BRAKES AND STEERING) AND "ENGINE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON". TURNED KEY OFF AND WAITED A MINUTE AND CAR STARTED RIGHT UP. DID NOT BRING TO DEALERSHIP FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED BUT WILL THIS TIME. DEFINITELY A SAFETY CONCERN IF THIS HAPPENS ON A HIGHWAY GOING HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TR UPDATED 1/28/2015*JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE LIMITED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RUBBER SEAL FOR THE VISTA SUN ROOF WAS DEFECTIVE AND AS A RESULT, FAILED TO CLOSE COMPLETELY. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT DUE TO THE FAILURE WATER LEAK IN CAUSING WATER DAMAGE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE CARPET AND BOTH FRONT AND REAR PASSENGER LEATHER SEATS WERE SEVERELY DAMAGED BY WATER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE SUN ROOF TRACK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION THE TECHNICIAN DETERMINED THAT THE SUN ROOF TRACK DID NOT NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE 78 MILES AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE 2013 EDGE WHEN SHE STOP IN A LEFT TURN LANE. SHE FOUND THE ROAD WAS CLEAR AND STEPPED ON THE GAS BUT THE CAR DID NOT GO FORWARD. INSTEAD A WARNING MESSAGE POPPED OUT SAYING THE ENGINE LEVEL IS TOO LOW. THEN SHE TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTED THE CAR. SAME THING HAPPENED AND THE CAR JUST DIDN'T ACCELERATE. AT LAST SHE MANAGED TO COAST THE CAR TO THE ROADSIDE AND CALLED ME FOR HELP. I ARRIVED IN ABOUT 20 MINS, CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL AND COOLANT TEMP BUT FOUND NOTHING WRONG. SO I RESTARTED THE CAR AND THIS TIME IT COULD ACCELERATE AS USUAL. AFTER GETTING HOME I CONTACTED THE FORD ROADSIDE ASSIST AND HAD THEM TOW THE CAR TO THE NEARBY DEALER. THERE THEY SCANNED THE CAR BUT ALL TESTS PASSED AND NO CODE HAD BEEN RECORDED. THE EXPLANATION GIVEN BY THE FORD HOTLINE IS THAT THE BOA(BRAKE OVER ACCELERATOR) FEATURE REDUCES ENGINE POWER DURING OFF-IDLE DRIVING WHEN THE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE PEDALS ARE APPLIED SIMULTANEOUSLY. I THINK THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. I ALSO TRIED TO STEP ON BOTH THE BRAKE AND GAS WITH ONE FOOT BUT THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS WILL BE REALLY SCARY IF IT HAPPENS ON THE FREEWAY. I FEEL SO FRUSTRATED BY FORD. *TR

THE DRIVER'S DOOR SENSORS INTERMITTENTLY HAVE A "DOOR AJAR" WARNING, THOUGH EACH DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. THE SENSOR IS INSIDE THE LATCH, AND HAS A VERY HIGH FAILURE RATE, BASED ON CURSORY INTERNET RESEARCH. THE WARNING CAN OCCUR WHILE DRIVING,AND/OR APPLYING BRAKES. IT ALERTS THE DRIVER TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK (WHILE DRIVING) WHEN THE "DOOR AJAR" SENSOR LIGHT IT ON. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

UPON CLOSING THE DRIVERS DOOR, THE CABIN LIGHTS REMAINED ON AND THE 'DOOR AJAR' INDICATOR LAMP WAS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH. AFTER REPEATED OPENING AND CLOSING OF THE DOOR, THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. THIS PROBLEM KEEPS HAPPENING ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK. ONE TIME THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE CABIN LIGHTS CAME ON AND STARTLED ME. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT DUE TO SUDDEN REDUCED VISIBILITY. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT FORD KNOWS ABOUT BECAUSE THEY HAVE A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON IT, TSB# 14-0083. THE REPAIR CONSISTED OF REMOVING THE INNER DOOR PANEL AND CLEANING THE ACTUATOR SWITCH. THE WARRANTY ON THIS CAR HAS EXPIRED, SO THE REPAIR COST ME $164.00. I THINK FORD SHOULD HAVE PAID FOR THIS IN FULL. WHY IS THIS NOT ON A RECALL? *JS

"DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY ALARMS FOR THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,500 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 32,171.

FAULTY SENSOR IN DRIVER'S-SIDE DOOR? SENSOR SHOWS THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS CLOSED, BUT THE ALERT GOES OFF THE ENTIRE TIME YOU'RE DRIVING WHICH IS A HAZARD & DISTRACTION. *TR

THE DRIVER DOOR ALMOST ALWAYS REPORTS THAT IT IS AJAR DESPITE THE FACT THAT IT IS CLOSED. IT WILL OCCASIONALLY STOP REPORTING THE PROBLEM IF I REPEATEDLY OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR. THIS PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON IN THE VEHICLE WHEN PARKED FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. THE ALERT WILL ALSO CHIME EVERY TIME I START FROM A COMPLETE STOP WHICH IS VERY DISTRACTING. *TR
