Driving along with 115,000 miles experienced excessive brake pedal travel when trying to stop. Scared the crap out of me. Braking did work at the bottom of the pedal as it was almost at the floor. Did some online research and many at experiencing this issue. It is sticky valves in the HCU. A condition that has caused recalls in other ford vehicles. I paid $1,600 to the ford dealer to replace the HCU. This needs a recall. It will kill someone
While turning the vehicle to the left at slow speed the right ball joint failed (passenger side) including axel damage. The front passenger wheel turned freely to the right with the driver side wheel remaining straight. A sensation of front end falling apart was felt from the driver's seat. There were no symptoms of suspension failure prior to this event. No vibration at speed, no clunking, no unusual tire wear or pulling left or right issues. The car has 119542 miles at the time of failure. The vehicle was purchased used just prior to this at a Honda Dealer with a extended warranty purchased at time of sale. Vehicle was serviced just prior to this failure with a water pump replaced under extended warranty.
My 2013 Ford Edge had 44,882 miles on it. With no warning or lights, car was difficult to stop. Hissing noise when brakes applied. Very scary! Took it to Ford dealership. They charged me $167 to diagnose the problem as power brake booster, and said it would take 3-4 weeks to get the part. Ford knows there’s a problem (N102) and supposedly it’s covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles, but I was told that mine would NOT be covered. I took it to an independent repaIr shop. They were able to get the part in three days. It cost me $993.28 to have it repaired. VERY DISAPPOINTED with Ford!! This is a SAFETY ISSUE!, Thank God I wasn’t on a highway when it happened! Is Ford waiting until someone gets killed?
The brake booster has failed now for the 3rd time in 12 months. Brakes still work but pedal goes almost to floor. Brake booster previously replaced, at our expense, by local Ford dealership in January 2021. Three months later brake booster failed again. Took back to dealership and they found no fault. In October brake booster failed again and has not regained proper function to date. Any questions answered below refer to the most recent malfunction.
Brake failure of the power brake booster, I was coming to stop and the brake pedal went to the floor and the vehicle went through a busy intersection narrowly missing another vehicle. I am the original owner of the vehicle. I contacted Ford customer care and explained to them what had happened,I was told Ford is not doing anything for customers who experienced this failure at this time.
I'm always sure to lock my doors while driving because of the concern of an assailant entering while at a stop light. However, I'm unable to protect myself because my doors won't lock while the car is in drive. This is massive safety concern for my family and me. One should feel safe and protected while in their vehicle, especially a Ford vehicle. My dealership did confirm and replicate this issue.
Well driving under normal operating conditions at the posted speed limit of 45 mph I was cut off and apply the brakes rapidly to avoid a collision, at that moment the brake pedal lost its firmness and depressed slowly to the floor with limited breaking ability. After the incident I pulled to the shoulder and noticed that the brake pedal continue to sink to the floor with little to no resistance even after placing in park, shutting down and restarting the vehicle. This condition still persists after break bleeding and checking the entire brake system, my safety was in jeopardy due to the fact that I had limited braking ability and the pedal continue to sink to the floor with no resistance. This has not been evaluated by a dealership or independent mechanic as of this writing and the problem has not been reproduced also there’s been no reports to my insurance, police, the manufacture or any other parties and there were no warning lights, diagnostic trouble codes, or any other Indication as to there being a faulty system or failed ABS pump, master cylinder or hydroboost
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while depressing the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, the pedal extended to the floor and the braking distance was extended. Additionally, the brake pedal felt spongy when pressed. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who was unable to duplicate the failure. The mechanic indicated that a hissing sound was present while depressing the brake pedal. The vehicle was not repaired. The local dealer and manufacturer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 114,000.
The wrench light comes on sporadically causing decreased speeds which entails causes accidents.
my car would not stop when i tried to stop. I tried stopping a second time and the brake pedal went to the floor. i have another replaced the brake booster 2 years ago and now they are saying it is the hcu unit. my car was under recall for booster but mine was not covered as it was made in nov i understand the recall was for 2013 made before May. I had the same problem.
i went to stop and the vehile did not stop but continued to roll. I tried stopping a second time the vehile break pedal went to the group. I then had the car towed in to the shop.
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH, the vehicle stalled without warning. The contact was unable to stop the vehicle. The vehicle began to roll forward and veered off the road. In a panic, the contact exited the vehicle from the driver's side door. She stated that the driver’s side rear tire rolled over her right leg however, she suffered no injuries. A police report was not filed. The contact called a relative to assist her and the relative was able to restart the vehicle and drove to an independent mechanic. The independent mechanic diagnosed the vehicle with a defective timing chain which resulted in engine failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and requested pictures of the engine to start an investigation. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was 165,000
When applying the brakes on my 2013 Ford Edge the brake pedal sinks to the floor (soft fading pedal). This always occurred following a quick hard stop, such as is required to avoid an animal or other unforeseen road hazard. Deliberately pushing the brake pedal with another quick, hard application (i.e. slamming the brakes) would then alleviate the soft pedal issue temporarily, only to have the entire scenario repeat itself. There are no warning lamps, messages or indications that there is a problem. The service department at Sunrise Ford in Fort Pierce, FL confirmed the problem and replaced the brake booster in accordance with Customer Satisfaction Program 13N02 (occurred on 3/5/21 at 81, 896 miles). Replacing the brake booster did not fix the problem. In fact, the soft fading brake pedal sinking to the floor is now continuous, and happens upon every brake application. This most definitely is a safety issue that endangers the vehicle occupants and all others on the road in the vicinity to include pedestrians. It puts everyone at risk because a soft fading brake pedal that goes to the floor delays the braking action of the vehicle, hence a longer stopping distance and possible collision. I have an appointment with the Sunrise Ford Dealership and I have stopped driving this vehicle until the manufacturer/dealership can provide a solution. A manufacturer safety recall is absolutely necessary.
The brake booster apparently is an issue with Ford Edge vehicles. Mine is a 2013 Ford Edge SE and I can barely stop my vehicle. I have to slam in the brakes really hard to get it to stop safely. The other issue since I’ve bought the vehicle is that when I accelerate, I smell engine fumes inside the cabin. Last, when the temperature drops suddenly, or if it’s really hot outside, my “Door is open” alarm stays on for the driver side door. Doesn’t matter how hard you close it.
Bakes Booster and Cylinder has to be replaced. When hitting brake pedal doesn't stop car immediatedly and goes very low. Have to step on brake several times for car to start. There seems to be a lot of complaints against 2013 Ford Edge for brake problems.
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at 5 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed and made an abnormal hissing sound, and felt soft. The contact also stated the brake pedal hesitated to respond, causing a 5-10 feet stopping distance delay. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the brake booster needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that the vehicle could not be repaired under an unknown customer satisfaction program due to the manufacture on date. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 105,000.
While turning into a driveway and applying the brake pedal, the pedal traveled to the floorboard, felt spongey and made a hissing sound. The vehicle is currently at the mechanics and was informed that it was not the master cylinder and is now looking to replace the brake booster. No service lights came on; there was no warning at all.
• What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The left back door sensor malfunctioned. Yes, it can be inspected once the battery is charged or replaced. • How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? It would not automatically lock the doors while driving. The vehicle is used to transport children. It would say the door is open despite it being closed and locked. The alarm would randomly go off with no one around. • Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The sensor malfunctioned so much, my battery is now dead. It has not been confirmed by a dealer or service center. • Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No, it has not been inspected by anyone yet. • Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? The messaging system would randomly tell me my door was open despite it being closed. It became more and more frequent as time went on. Before my battery died, it was happening 3-4 times a night.The issue first appeared in May or June of 2021
When my check engine light came on I took my 2013 Ford Edge to my regular mechanic. I was having problems with the brakes causing the car to stall when stopped with my foot on the brake. It was also difficult to stop since the brake pedal would not engage & when it did it went to the floor. It was the brake booster which I paid $966 to have repaired. I later learned that this was under a Ford recall 13N02 for 2010-2013 Edge however my vehicle was not covered because apparently it wasn't built in the Oakville plant!! I feel this should be covered regardless of where my vehicle was built since the issue involves the exact problem described in Ford's "customer satisfaction program 13N02"
The brake pedal is going all the way to floor and struggles to stop the car. With no brakes could cause a major accident. Don't trust driving the car. Has not yet been taken to mechanic or dealer. Research recalls and issues and sounds like this has been a major safety issue that Ford Motor Co. has tried to avoid with some Edges built in that year. Again, no one has inspected the vehicle yet but has ALL symptoms of the posted recall. There was no warning lights.
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving, the brake pedal felt spongy when pressed, causing the braking distance to become extended. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who replaced the brake master cylinder, but the failure continued. The vehicle was then taken to the local dealer who replaced the ABS module, but the failure continued. The brake booster was later replaced, and the failure was remedied. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 72,000.
I had to make an emergency stop and my brake pedal went down to the floor. I am being told that the ABS Module and Hydraulic Control Unit need to be replaced at a cost of $2,550.
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the contact depressed the brake pedal and the vehicle would not stop. The contact depressed the brake pedal almost to the floor for the vehicle to slow down. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who inspected the vehicle and diagnosed the failure as a failure with a brake booster and hose that needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
The door closer says door ajar when it is closed. It is on the front driver's side door. The dome light is constantly on running out the battery and my wife is not able to lock the doors!!! This is a major safety issue!! I found some info online about A LOT of other ford owners having the same issues and ford doesn't think it's a big deal!!?? Is it going to take someone getting seriously injured for this to be resolved? This is ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE!
The ABS Hydraulic Control Unit went bad in my car. i made an appointment with ford thinking that it was the brake booster because it’s listed as a problem with those cars but it ended up not being that. i was driving and was cut off and brake checked and when i went to slam on my brakes they went straight to the floor and luckily i was able to swearve and miss intime. ford told me what the problem was and they will be fixing it for over $1200. i read multiple entries of people with the same car having this problem and even with serious injuries as well and this is a very dangerous saftey issue. i checked all my system lights and the section for the brakes still said OK just like all the other categories. the fact that the car can’t even recognize the problem makes it so 100x worse. this was the scariest experience i’ve ever had and was able to come to a stop off an exit with my e-brake. this needs to be addressed, how many more people need to wreak and get hurt before it gets taken seriously. this needs to be recalled.
Brake pedal would go partially down when applied and then stop, allowing vehicle to continue moving, rather than stop.
2013 FORD EDGE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO A DEFECTIVE DOOR SWITCH ON VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER STATED THE THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CONTINUOUSLY BLINKS. THE DEALER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS 8 YEARS OLD AND COULD NOT BE COVERED. THE CONSUMER STATED THE PAST RECALL SHOULD BE HONORED.
Brake booster went bad & the vehicle is not covered by the Ford extended warranty 13N02. Being that the booster is vacuum controlled the engine will occasionally die while in traffic.
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while refueling the vehicle, the fuel was coming back out from the fuel filler neck. The dealer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the manufacturer. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that the VIN was not included in any recalls. The failure mileage was approximately 119,000.
After purchasing my 2013 Ford Edge SEL from a used car dealer, I noticed that the car would brake it self and come to a complete stop at 55 miles an hour. This scared me so I went to the Ford dealer Riser Ford in Hot Springs Arkansas about the problem. The dealer told me that no codes came up for the brake problem and nothing could be done until a code came up. I took the care to my mechanic and he told me that after driving the car himself he checked the temp on all four rotors and the front drivers side rotor was 30 degrees warmer than the rest. So either the sensor or module must be bad. This vehicle is dangerous to drive when your brakes lock up at high speed or at any speed. Ford should be sued for not correcting dangerous equipment.
I was driving home from work on a flat road no bumps or anything and my car was shaking like it was going over a speed bump and this loud sound happened like something fell off the car, and then immediately after that my brakes werent working anymore, we took it to a mechanic and they said its the brake booster and that my car is known to have this recall but that Ford doesnt have it announced as a recall and I would like to take it to Ford to fix it since its a known issue
VACUMN BOOSTER LEAKING at 82,120 miles
While driving the car randomly shuts off when it wants to. Does it approximately every half hour to 1 hour of drive time. When it shuts off the dash board goes dark, and the engine shuts off. The car needs to be coasted to the side of the road with no power brakes, or power steering, and put in park. As soon as the car is stopped and parked it can be started back up again. Multiple times it has shut off in heavy traffic and almost caused an accident, 1 time was in a construction zone on the highway where there was no place to pull off so I had to come to a complete stop in the middle of the highway and restart the car. The car was taken to the Ford dealership and they inspected it for 1 full week and they said they could not verify what is causing the issue and told me to continue driving vehicle and when problem starts happening more often to bring it back in. There are no warning lights that come on, and there are no symptoms that are associated with the problem. The car first started doing it approximately 1 month ago, at about 75,000 miles. Car currently has 76,561
Purchased this vehicle in April 2021. 1st time I was braking to make a right turn onto a side street and I lost all pedal. Waited a few minuets and the pedal came back. 2nd time was in June, braked harder to avoid a car that cut me off and the same thing-pedal went straight to the floor. This time longer to get the pedal back-stopped the car and pumped up the brakes. Took me about 15 min to get any pedal back. 3rd time was just 2 days ago-Started to brake at a red light and no pedal. Pulled off and tried to pump up the brakes again but nothing happened. Waited 30 mins on the side of the road to get my brakes back. Each time my speeds were different-15 mph-60 mph-45 mph. Each time I had my kids in the car and now I don't feel safe driving this car. This is nothing new, there are Forums about this exact thing.
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated while reversing out of a driveway, the brake pedal was hard to depress. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer or the independent mechanic immediately after the failure. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent. The contact researched the failure and found a manufacturer recall for the brake booster for the 2010-2017 Ford Edge. The contact stated that her VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer however, no diagnosis due to the COVID pandemic. The dealer confirmed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed the failure and determined that the brake booster needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact to call NHTSA for assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.
Wrench light came on and Car immediately completely lost power while driving, no acceleration, had to coast to edge of street and turn car off. Waited a few minutes and restarted without incident. When investigating what this light was and what to do about it I found that this same issue has happened to many many people with a 2013 Edge. Could have been very dangerous had this happened while on the freeway driving at freeway speeds
While driving the edge at 35mph when stepping on the brakes the pedal was vary stiff and don't engage, then suddenly the brakes engage and nearly lock up, when nearing a stop sign or light as slowly coming to a stop the brake pedal fades and can be pressed to the floor. There were no warning light or notification of errors. Took to Local Ford dealer and they performed a Brake Booster replacement under extended warranty and the vehicle was given back. The issue was not resolved and taken back to dealer who test drove and agreed it was a safety issue. Dealer says that the replaced Brake Booster was defective and they have ordered another. I expressed my concern that a bad booster would not explain that the pedal would go to the floor. We shall see

My 2013 Ford Edge SE Brakes failed in April of 2021. I first had brakes checked after failure incident I was out of town in Salina KS. LAGROON AUTO SVC INC said found nothing, repaired wheel bearing LR $448.71. Had another near miss accident in Kansas City, MO a car ran in front of me car brakes failed to stop, I swerved into next lane in front of car in that lane to avoid accident. Called MOBILE AUTOMOBILE MECHANICS OF KANSAS CITY, I was told it was Brake Master Cylinder and would cost $1,100.00. I rejected that cost. I took vehicle to AAMCO AUTO REPAIR. Brake Master Cylinder was replaced for $387.01. Brakes failed again next day had another mishap with braking. Returned vehicle to AAMCO. Diagnostic done. I was told it was the Anti Lock breaks, and I need to take vehicle to dealer. I took vehicle to Dealer THOROUGHBRED FORD. I gave them diagnostics from AAMCO. I was told there was a Brake Booster recall on my car, and looks like that is maybe what the problem is. Make appointment. I brought car in was told further inspection showed it not brake booster, it is HCU HUDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT. Make another appointment will cost $1,600.00. I cannot afford that much more money. I went home looked on internet about 2013 Ford Edge HCU, found that failed HCU Is a common problem for this vehicle. I called other brake repair shops to see if could get better price was told due to pandemic parts were backed up and would be several months before could receive part. I was in several near misses of having an accident in an fairly new 8 year old vehicle. There is no recall on HCU when this is a common problem that can potentially cause someone their life, like it almost did me. I had to trade this vehicle to REED GMC BUICK because I needed reliable transportation to travel to help my elderly parents. I will also report to other agencies about this problem.
I had spongy brakes took to the shop because I was finally losing brake fluid. Shop changed my Brake Master Cylinder. $400 on the way home my car felt like it was dragging. Get home smelled a strange smell. got in it the next morning going to work and it felt like my brakes where being pressed. Almost got to work and my car just stopped finally got it into a parking lot and my brakes locked completely up and my car would not move. Smoke started coming out of my wheel wells. Towed it to the repair shop and was told my ABS Control Module was bad. Part is on back order been waiting for it for the last week. Shop told me my car was not safe to drive.
This is a known issue for the Ford Edge. The Voltage Regulator on the Alternator goes out prematurely. The SYNC system will shut down while driving and also disable many features of the vehicle. Such as the radio turning off, doors not unlocking, shifting disabled, headlights turn on dimly, etc. The battery tests normal and so does the alternator, however the regulator within the alternator will not pass through enough charge to the battery to stay charged. Hence, why most people will change the battery and still have the problem later. I understand as parts age they do fail, however this has been a known issue since early versions of the car and it has yet to be corrected. Many of the complaints on NHTSA are related to this, however some people are not aware due to lack of testing the particular item. They will write complaints about radio shutting off or headlights wont turn on(which is really dangerous as well). It often happens while driving, a warning will show up saying "Sync shutting down.....". Driver's are unaware that they are only driving on the battery power at this point because when they get it checked by a mechanic, both the battery and alternator test as they are supposed too. They alternator is still creating voltage however the regulator, not tested individually, won't allow enough to go through to recharge the battery. The most concerning part is if certain electrical components not deemed necessary by the SYNC system are shut down they could lead to more catastrophic incidents. For example; ABS braking not slowing the vehicle, door wont unlock in emergency situation, etc. I had both battery and alternator checked by a tech from Oreilly's Auto Parts and a mechanic from a local auto shop. I was informed that it must be the battery since the alternator is performing, So the battery was changed Friday 08/13/2021. Vehicle was fine until driving Monday 08/15/2021 and warning showed up again.
Door switch problem -even when all doors are shut ,control panel is telling you a door is ajared -interior light stays on --can not lock car with remote --because it thinks door is open . if I try to lock my doors when I try to drive doors will not lock-safety issue right there. now I was informed by ford in January 2020 for the first time about this customer satisfaction problem as they called it . At this time the problem did not happen that often and the covid virus problem had keep us at home . when we were able to go out safely I brought car to my dealership and showed the paper work and the service dept said it is not covered anymore and I would have to pay $500.00 approximately. I called Ford from there and they would not give the ok on fixing it, where they would be able to do while I was there for regular maintenance. I advised them that I was only informed by that one letter in 2020. I have been having them do my service since I bought car in 2013 and nothing was ever mentioned about this problem . and now problem with door is continuous and I feel it should be taken care of by Ford. You have my vin # please have someone get back to me on what I should do to have this repaired by Ford.
brakes pedal goes slowly to floor some times, cant be properly diagnosed rear brake calipers sticking ,replaced them and pads, pedal still not always good. lots of edge owners have this issue, no help from ford, without replacing entire brake system from begining to end then no guarantee that it wont recur. this system should not be this unreliable.should be a instant recall on these cars.like the ford truck brake recall now
Engine dies on road when engine has not reached maximum engine operating temperature in most cases. Engine dies-pull over to curb-put in park-engine restarts-operates normally after shut down. Has happened 4 times-could be dangerous- last time died with another vehicle close behind. Possible wreck event could take place under these conditions.

Brake booster failed a third time. brake went spongy and they sent out a 13n02 for one repair, but only one repair.
Left rear door ajar light remains on even when door is fully closed. Interior lights remain on while driving. Vehicle is garaged when not in use.
On Wednesday July 28, 2021- While driving my vehicle, without any warning lights or any other symptoms I noticed a loss of braking power and the pedal went all the way down to the floor luckily I was on a backroad with no other cars in front or behind me. I immediately pulled to the side of the rode and waited a few minute before proceeding. I was then able to drive to a local repair shop where it was diagnosed that the brake booster had failed. After investigation and seeing that an extended warranty was provided for this part by Ford the repair shop called a Local Ford dealership but was told my car was not part of the warranty. I contacted Ford and was told the although my vehicle was in the build year as the extended warrantied vehicles, my vehicle was built in October, the warranty period covered vehicle built up until March of 2013. I had the brake booster replaced at my own expense.
Brakes failed due the power brake booster, was replace at the shop. The shop that the vehicle was towed to confirmed that the brake booster along with the check valve and line failed and needed to be replaced. There were no warning lamps or messages to indicate failure other than the brake petal feeling soft and a squealing noise.
My wife an I have 3 kids. An the rear driverside door latch reads 90% of the time that the door is open but it's not. At night we have to open an shut the door atleast 30 times to get the lights to go off in the Ford edge. Recently on a new issue we lost our brakes. Had to pay to replace the brake booster and master cylinder. As the mechanic got it together he went to bleed the brakes an only front driver an rear passenger bleed. The other 2 wouldn't bleed at all. Which made me get a tow truck an had to take it to corwen Ford in Springfield, mo today.

The manufacturer was contacted and informed of the failure. The contact was notified of a brake booster replacement warranty on the vehicle. The failure mileage was 38,000.
When depressing the brakes, heard a hissing sound and had a spongy break feeling. Could not stop as desired at a low speed and traveled into the busy intersection. Took car to Ford Dealer and they diagnosed it as a Brake Booster Failure. Was notified that Ford was fixing this for some VINs under 150k mileage, which my vehicle is. Was told that this agency was the deciding factor if my VIN was covered under this repair from Ford. Right time, right place, we could have been crushed. The dealership confirmed the issue with the Ford Edge, and the fact that there was a Customer Satisfaction sent to some VIN's for the 2013 Ford Edge. There were no warnings at all of this failure. None. One time was enough to go have it checked out before someone was injured or killed.

Power brakes will randomly fail, without any warning. Safety of driver and passengers, as well as other motorists are in danger with this problem. Master cylinder and brake booster are operating correctly. Abs pump motor is the problem. A valve is sticking inside it, causing brake fluid to bypass the brake calipers line and just go open loop in the abs circuit. Google and YouTube is full of the exact same problem. Factory part(s) did not even last 10years or 150,000 miles. Completely unacceptable for the most important system on a vehicle. No lights are on, basic scan tool finds no codes. Advanced scan tool finds a abs soft code:coo20:13-28. Ford wants over $3000 to fix with the exact same part that will fail again without notice. I am a small mechanic, and cannot do this repair because you have to have ford's special software.

While driving and applying brakes, it began to make a hissing noise then brake pedal began to go hard and vehicle turned off
It is believed by driver that booster hose has failed. This became apparent when driving through New Orleans on I-10 westbound. When I came off interstate exit to a street near where I was going, I had to almost stand on brake pedal to stop and keep from rearending car in front of me. I checked my brake fluid and it was full with no leaks. There are no leaks on inside under brake pedal. This vehicle is a 2013 Ford Edge SEL AWD assembled ay Oakville, Ontario, Canada. There was no dash lights that came on to indicate that there is a malfunction. My vehicle may also have an electrical light problem to which I am not aware of.
The force necessary to depress the brake pedal has increased and at times the car still rolls while the brake pedal is depressed.

The contact stated that while driving at unknown speeds the vehicle was shaking. The check engine warning indicator light illuminated The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed the power transfer unit and the transfer case needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 94,000.
Hissing sound when the brake pedal was depressed and then the stiffness in the pedal itself. There was little to extremely little braking power and was very difficult to slow and stop the vehicle. Took the car to a local repair shop and determined that it was a faulty brake booster. They felt that it should be taken to the dealer, which I did. I did find out that this is a very common problem with the same make and model Fords. A Customer Satisfaction program 13N02 was launched but not for my vin. This is a very dangerous situation feel that more investigation should be done on this particular product.
Brakes hiss are spongy and then get solid and hard to stop vehicle. Vehicle was made in Oakville plant where 2013 Ford Edge’s have been identified to have known issues with brake booster (Ford program 13N02) although they say my Ford does not qualify even with only 60k miles.
This is not an unknown problem to NHTSA or Ford for covered vehicles. Brake booster failed, causing serious problems with the ability to stop the vehicle. For other 2013 Ford Edge and Mercury MKX vehicles, this repair is covered (NHTSA 10054925), while some of these vehicles are not covered for some reason, including this VIN. The brake booster failure on this vehicle presents no less of a safety issue than that of the covered vehicles, which received a Ford 10 year extended warranty on the brake booster. No warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms.
This is a vigilant preventative report. There aren't any warning lamps, failures or messages yet and I sure am glad. But the symptoms were noticed on May 21, 2021 after I returned home from getting my emissions done. I noticed both front tires were streaming wet with liquid and at first I thought I had run over something. Then today May 30, I needed to run to the grocery store but before I left I had my son look underneath the hood because I thought maybe a fluid or freon may have caused the scene but soon found out that there is no way for any fluids to penetrate to the tires because there is a solid panel separating the mechanisms underneath the hood from the wheels and tire. That made me take a closer look at the inside of the wheel covers/caps and low and behold you can see because of the dark color of the fluid in the wells of the wheels; brake fluid has been spewing now, both times as far as I can tell. I don't know how long it takes for the fluid reservoir to become empty, but I sure wouldn't want to be driving my vehicle when that happens. So this is in my opinion a "Life or Death" Safety Hazard and would really be appreciative for an immediate response! I need your suggestion as soon as you're able to, what should be my next step. I am a senior citizen and I purchased this 2013 vehicle as my future retirement vehicle in 2014 and retired in 2017. I believed it would be a nice, sturdy well-built and reliable vehicle for years to come. I've owned many a vehicle and have never had any major brake issues during all those years, just regular maintenance on brakes and other expected low maintenance. Never anything of this magnitude to put my life in danger. Wow! An 8 year old vehicle with just under 73,000 miles on the odometer driven less that 50 miles per month, I wouldn't have ever thought this could happen. Hopefully, there is a Safety Recall for this model as well. Still researching....
The purpose of this letter is to request a recall on 2013 Ford Edge. The customer satisfaction program 13N02 released in January of 2014 identifies that “it is possible for the brake booster on your vehicle to develop a small tear in the diaphragm.” This is what has occurred in my vehicle under 100,000 miles. The recall/program covers vehicles made prior to March 28, 2013 and my vehicle was made in approximately June. As a result my request for relief has to this point been denied. I am very disappointed as it is an identical issue to the recall but because my car is approximately 90 days younger than others identified, I am out $940.30 dollars for the repair. The repair is completed now. The vehicle was not stopping responsively and put myself and others at risk. My auto mechanic confirmed the issue and identified it as the same described in the recall noted above. There were no warning lamps or other symptoms to make us aware of the issue. Ford denies to cover my repair as it is a vehicle made shortly after the bulletin identifies.
Entire panel system shuts down when driving at various times. Non-functioning lights, speedometer, and warning systems. Entire panel across Ford Edge goes black. Driving at night and the entire cabin and headlamps shut off immediately. No hazard lights. Ford stated my vehicle is not recalled due to being manufactured at another plant from other recalls of the same year, model and make. Vehicle has less than 28,000 as of this date. Available for inspection immediately.
Backup camera started having issues (screen image upside down, screen flashing) 3 years ago. Dealer stated this is common complaint and since the car was not under warranty the estimated repair could be upwards to $2,000. I asked if the issue was common and pointed out there was a recall on new Ford cars and trucks due to backup camera issues, and why this issue shouldn't be covered as it is has the same problem that the recall on newer vehicle has? There was no response other than asking if I wanted the camera fixed, or not.
I HAVE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE I HAVE EITHER HAD TO 1) PRESS THE BRAKES VERY HARD TO THE FLOOR TO STOP, SOMETIMES STILL ROLLING OR 2) OCCASIONALLY FELT VERY STIFF BRAKES THAT WILL NOT STOP THE CAR WHEN PRESSING ON THE BRAKE. THE CAR WOULD CONTINUE TO ROLL. I HAD TO PULL TO THE SIDE SO I WOULD NOT IMPACT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES ON HIGHWAY 23. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR A BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUE, BUT FORD CLAIMS MY CAR WAS MADE THE MONTH AFTER THE RECALL ENDED. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS, AND GETTING WORSE RECENTLY. WE HAD TO SCHEDULE THE REPAIR BECAUSE THE CAR WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE BRAKES WERE IN GOOD CONDITION OTHERWISE - NO OTHER ISSUES.
EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED, THE DOOR OPEN SIGNAL IS ON AND WILL STAY ON AND I CANNOT LOCK THE CAR. IT WAS HAPPENING PERIODICALLY, NOW IT IS CONSISTENT. AFTER REVIEWING THE NHTSA WEBSITE, I NOTICED THAT 19N09 WAS ISSUED AND I NEVER RECEIVED THE NOTICE TO BRING THE CAR IN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD DEPRESS TO THE FLOORBOARD TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A STOP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WANTED A SECOND OPINION AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO KEN GARFF ST. GEORGE FORD (145 HILTON DR, ST. GEORGE, UT 84770) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH THE SAME FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RELATED THE FAILURE TO AN UNKNOWN RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 112,000.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR INDICATOR REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED. THIS RESULTS IN DOORS NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK, POSING A POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS HAPPENING RANDOMLY. ADDITIONALLY, THE INTERIOR LIGHT ON CONTINUOUS ILLUMINATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN DEAD BATTERY.
2013 FORD EDGE WITH PUSH BUTTON START MODELS EXHIBITS A SHIFT TO PARK MESSAGE, DISPLAYED WHILE THE SHIFTER IS IN PARK POSITION AND VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND PARKED. THERE HAS BEEN A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ISSUED ON THIS 14 DECEMBER 2017, BUT REPAIR OF SHIFTER KIT -PARK DETECT SWITCH, 2011-2014 EDGE IS NOT COVERED AS A RECALL ISSUE EVEN THOUGH IT IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM.
I HAVE A HISSING NOISE WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE AND A SOFTER FEELING WHEN PUSHING THE BRAKE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP OR WHEN I'M IDLING. MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT IN THE PLANT THAT HAD A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM OFFER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY TO FIX THIS ISSUE, BUT MY DATE IS 6 MONTHS OFF OF THEIR WINDOW AND THEY WON'T COVER IT.
ON GOING ISSUE WITH BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE, JUST HAD THE 2ND BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED FOR A HARD BRAKE PEDAL DUE TO DIAPHRAM FAILURE IN THE BOOSTER, IT WAS REPLACED AT A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP ON DAY OF 3/2/2018 MILAGE ON VEHICLE WAS 42785 (THIS BOOSTER WAS REPLACED UNDER AN EXTENDED PART WARRANTY DEFECT) 3RD NEW BOOSTER INSTALLED 3/21/2021 MILAGE ON VEHICLE WAS74757 FORD CUSTOMERS SERVICE WAS UNRESPONSIVE TO PROBLEM
SPONGY SOFT BRAKE PEDAL DUE TO FAULTY ABS BRAKE MANIFOLD VALVE, (AS DIAGNOSIS FROM REPAIR SHOP) WHILE BRAKING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN STARTED THE PROBLEM OF SPONGY, DIMINISHED BRAKING CAPACITY, APPLYING BRAKES WOULD RESULT IN A SOFT FADING PEDAL PROBLEM OCCURED WHILE CAR IN MOTION MAKING LEFT HAND TURN FROM HIGHWAY TO ROAD NORMAL BRAKING CONDITION
THE ABS WENT OUT. BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, A BRAKE LINE GAVE OUT AND WAS LEAKING' THAT NEEDED TO BE FULLY REPLACED' POWER BRAKE BOOSTER AND MASTER CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED' THIS ALL HAPPENED WITHIN 4-5 MONTHS. THE WRENCH IDIOT LIGHT CAME ON AND THERE WAS LOSE OF POWER. IT HAS COME ON MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THEN GOES AWAY AND THEN THE CAR IS FINE.
FAILURE OF THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS ALLOWS THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GO ALMOST TO THE FLOOR, REQUIRING A LONGER STOPPING DISTANCE AND MORE PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. MY WIFE TOLD ME ABOUT THIS OCCASIONAL BEGINNING ABOUT 1.5 YEARS AGO BUT I WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE IT. THIS PAST WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 17, 2021, WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, IT FAILED COMPLETELY. IN 2014 FORD ISSUED CSP 13N02 TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM ON 2010-2013 FORD EDGE VEHICLES. THIS WAS NOT A RECALL, BUT IT SHOULD BE. MY WIFE NEVER RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM FORD OR THE SELLING DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS. WE MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR TODAY, FEBRUARY 21, 2021, AT THE SELLING DEALERSHIP. WHEN WE DROPPED IT OFF I INFORMED THEM OF THE PROBLEM, AS WELL AS CSP 13N02. SINCE HER VEHICLE HAD JUST OVER THE 150,000 MILE LIMIT FOR THE CSP THEY REFUSED TO PERFORM THE WORK UNDER THE TERMS OF THAT CSP. THAT CSP HAS A PARTS COST OF $200 AND ALLOWS 2 HOURS LABOR. THEY HAVE QUOTED HER $700+. THE CAR HAS BEEN LEFT THERE FOR REPAIR SINCE WE HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL INITIATED FOR THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION.
CAR WAS SERVICED IN MASSACHUSETTS PRIOR TO DRIVING TO FLORIDA. DEALER RECOMMENDED NEW BRAKES AND AIR CABIN FILTER. NO MENTION OF OTHER ISSUES DURING 99 POINT INSPECTION (REPORT NOT PROVIDED). REACHED FLORIDA AND CAME OFF HIGHWAY AND WAS CUT OFF AND SLAMMED ON BRAKES. HEARD A LARGE BOOM AND TRIED TO DRIVE FORWARD AND WOULD NOT DRIVE. REACHED PARKING LOT AND CAR WOULD REVERSE BUT WHEN MOVING FORWARD WOULD SKIP. HAD IT TOWED TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT POWER TRANSFER UNIT HAD EXPLODED. MOST LIKELY HAD LEAK THAT WAS NOT DISCOVERED DURING CAR SERVICING. RESEARCHED ONLINE AND THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE AWD FORD EDGE. SURPRISED THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL.
1/19/2021 HAD ACCIDENT ON I85 HIGHWAY CHARLOTTE NC. WHEN I BRAKE AT 50 MILES FOR TRYING AVOID ACCIDENT CAR DIDN'T STOP AS SOON AS. BUT I HIT MY HEAD FIRST BEFORE THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED.. MY FOREHEAD IS BLACK AND BLUE STILL AFTER A WEEK OF THE ACCIDENT
LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON WHILE DRIVING, SAYING LEFT PASSENGER DOOR IS NOT CLOSED. SHORTLY AFTER THAT STARTED THE WIPERS STARTED COMING ON BY THEMSELVES ONCE THE CAR IS STARTED. WE DO NOT HAVE AUTOMATIC WIPERS. WHILE LOOKING ONLINE TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHY THIS WAS HAPPENING, DISCOVERED MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON THIS YEAR, MAKE & MODEL. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS SINCE THERE ARE SO MANY!
THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT FAILED WHICH COST $2,800.00 TO FIX. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL CAR. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE IT SEEMS TO BE BOTH VERY COSTLY AS WELL AS A SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL. AFTER BRINGING UP THE METALLIC NOISE A COUPLE OF TIMES WITH THE DEALERSHIP, I FINALLY ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE PTU UNIT WHICH IT WAS CONFIRMED TO BE.
THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE AND CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM HAS BECOME INTERMITTENT, UNDEPENDABLE AND DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING. THERE IS NO WAY TO TELL WHEN IT IS WOKING OR NOT AND TO DEPEND ON IT IS ASKING FOR DISASTER. THE DEALER DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE A CLUE AS TO WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT.
POWER TRANSFER UNIT FAILED. COST TO FIX WAS $2,800.00. I BROUGHT IT TO THE FORD DEALER A COUPLE OF TIMES. AFTER DIAGNOSING IT MYSELF I ASKED THEM TO CHECK POWER TRANSFER UNIT WHICH WAS MAKING A METALLIC SOUND. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THIS IS A VERY COMMON AND POSSIBLY DANGEROUS AND CERTAINLY COSTLY CONDITION WITH THIS CAR.
HAD TO HAVE TRANSMISSION REPLACED AT 48,000 MILES. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. I WAS ON A CITY STREET DRIVING ABOUT 40 MPH. I HAD TO CALL THE LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT TO HAVE THEM COME PARK BEHIND THE CAR BECAUSE MULTIPLE PEOPLE ALMOST HIT ME WHILE STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON FOR A SINGLE SPLIT SECOND THEN WENT OFF. RIGHT AFTER THE TRANSMISSION GAVE OUT AND ENGINE SHUT OFF AS A WAY TO PROTECT THE MOTOR. I WAS ALMOST HIT BY SEVERAL PEOPLE. I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN AND IT IDLED FINE. AS SOON AS I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE IT SHUT OFF AGAIN. THIS COULD HAVE GOTTEN ME AND MY GF SERIOUSLY INJURED. REAR CROSS TRAFFIC WARNING SIGNALS GO OFF WHEN NOTHING IS AROUND. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME AND IS SUPER ANNOYING.
DRIVER'S SEAT BEGAN TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH WITH VEHICLE MOTION. SEAT IS POWER WITH MEMORY. DEALER STATES THAT ITS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH NO RECALL OR TSB. QUOTED $1600 FOR REPLACEMENT. SEAT HAS NOW BEGAN TO MOVE FORWARD UNDER BRAKING CONDITIONS, AND AFT UNDER ACCELERATION. THIS IS AN UNSAFE CONDITION THAT COULD BE A MAJOR CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO AN ACCIDENT. UPON INSPECTION OF THE SEAT TRACK, THE GUIDE RAILS HAVE BEGAN SEPERATING AND HAVE BECOME LOOSE.
MY CAR HAS BEEN LEAKING OIL FOR YEARS, BUT NO ONE COULD FIND A LEAK IN OUR OIL SYSTEM. WE WERE JUST TOLD WE HAVE A CRACKED TRANSFER CASE BY THE FORD DEALERSHIP.
OVER A YEAR AGO MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD BE CLOSED AND MY EDGE WOULD SAID DOOR AJAR LEAVING THE LIGHTS ON AND ME UNABLE TO LOCK MY DOORS.

IT IS HARD TIMES RIGHT NOW AND ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!

WHILE DRIVING OUR 2013 FORD EDGE THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL OF A SUDDEN WENT ALMOST TO THE FLOOR TO STOP THE CAR, AND MADE A HISSING NOISE WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THIS 2013 FORD EDGE HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM LAST YEAR WHEN MY WIFE ALMOST HIT A WALL AND WE HAD A POWER BRAKE BOOSTER INSTALLED MARCH 23, 2019. I WAS TOLD BY FORD IT WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL THAT THEY ISSUED BASED ON MY VIN BACK IN MARCH OF 2019. NOW IN OCTOBER 2020 THE SAME ISSUE HAS RETURNED AND I NEED ANOTHER POWER BRAKE BOOSTER INSTALLED. FORD SAYS THAT IT IS NOT A DESIGN ISSUE, BUT THE CAR HAS 58,000 MILES AND IS NOW HAVING A THIRD POWER BRAKE BOOSTER SINCE NEW. MY WIFE DOES NOT TRUST THE BRAKING SYSTEM BASED ON THIS.
AT LESS THAN 69,000 MILES, MY 2013 FORD EDGE DEVELOPED A WHINE IN THE POWER TRAIN, NOTED BY MY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. I OWN ONE VEHICLE AND I LIVE 13 MILES FROM THE FORD DEALERSHIP IN COATESVILLE WHERE I PURCHASED IT NEW IN 2013. THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT AND INDICATED IT COULD FAIL AT ANY TIME (CAUSING A REAL SAFETY ISSUE). RELUCTANT TO RISK DRIVING IT ANY MORE THAN ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, I HAD IT REPLACED AT A COST OF $2,000. THE DEALER SUBMITTED A CLAIM TO FORD TO SEEK ANY FINANCIAL HELP, SINCE IT HAD LESS THAN 69,000 MILES. CLAIM WAS DENIED ON THE BASIS THAT IT WAS BEYOND THE 60,000 MILE EXTENDED WARRANTY THRESHOLD AND THAT IT HAD NOT BEEN CONTINUALLY SERVICED BY THE DEALERSHIP. AT LESS THAN 9,000 BEYOND THE WARRANTY THE PTU FOR THIS 2013 FORD WAS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE AND IT CRIES OUT FOR A RECALL.
MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE FINANCED A 2013 FORD EDGE LAST YEAR 2019. THE SAME YEAR THE BREAK PEDAL GOES STRAIT TO THE FLOOR. IT IS NOW SEPTEMBER 2020 AND IS STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BREAK BOOSTER JUST LAST WEEK AND THE PROBLEM STILL REMAIN THE SAME. SOMETIMES THE BREAK LIGHT MESSAGE WILL COME ON IN DAH BOARD AND SOMETIMES NOT. I CALLED CORPORATE IN MI, AND GOT THE RUN AROUND AROUND ABOUT MY VEHICLE. THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THIS SITUATION AND THEY WANT US TO BUY AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE BREAK BOOSTER. THEY CLAIM I CANT TAKE MY SUV TO CLOSEST FORD COMPANY TO GET IT INSPECTED FOR FREE. WE SPENT HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON THIS SAME PROBLEM. THEY SAID KEEP YOUR RECEIPT. I DID MY RESEARCH AND THE KELLY BLUE BOOK STATES REVIEWS OF THE SAME ISSUES, THAT I AM HAVING. I HAVE CHILDREN AND IS AFRAID TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, NOT JUST FOR MYSELF AND THE FAMILY BUT FOR OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. FORD NEED TO RECALL THIS ISSUE AND THEY DON'T WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK. I AM STILL PAYING ON THE CAR CURRENTLY WITH ANOTHER YEAR OF FINANCING TO PAY OFF THE CAR. I AM AFRAID THAT I WILL GET INTO A ACCIDENT AND HURT MYSELF, FAMILY AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I CAN NOT AFFORD THIS PROBLEM ANYMORE. PLEASE HELP ME GET THIS RESOLVED.
SUV WON'T CRANK WHEN IT'S TOO HOT (ABOVE 90 DEGREES). EVERY SUMMER I HAVE THIS PROBLEM. SOMETIMES IT WILL CRANK IF I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR TO DECREASE THE SPEED, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NORMAL NOISE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THE FAILURE RECURRED WITH THE LOW ENGINE OIL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED SHE EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE WHILE SHIFTING GEARS IN REVERSE AND DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COLONIAL FORD OF PLYMOUTH LOCATED AT 11 PILGRIM HILL RD, PLYMOUTH, MA 02360, (508) 746-3400, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING THE BRAKE BOOSTER TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 128,000.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH SENSOR. THE SENSOR DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY AND THE VEHICLE COMPUTER IS CONSTANTLY THINKING THAT MY DOOR IS AJAR. IT ILLUMINATES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS CAUSING DISTRACTIONS AND SAFETY ISSUES FOR ME TRYING TO DRIVE AND OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME, ESPECIALLY SINCE I WORK 3RD SHIFT AND DO A LOT OF NIGHTTIME DRIVING. IT HAS DRAINED MY BATTERY NUMEROUS TIMES DUE TO IT SETTING MY ALARM OFF INTERMITTENTLY BECAUSE IT ALL OF THE SUDDEN THINKS MY DOOR IS OPEN WHEN I HAVE IT PARKED. I HAVE READ SO MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL BY FORD YEARS AGO AS THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. FORD SENT A LETTER OUT STATING THAT THEY WOULD DO A ONE-TIME COURTESY FIX FOR PEOPLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER, THEY LISTED REQUIREMENTS FOR MILEAGE AND AGE OF VEHICLE THAT YOU HAD TO MEET TO HAVE THEM FIX IT. SO EVEN THOUGH I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR SINCE 35,000 MILES, THEY TOLD ME THAT I DIDN'T QUALIFY. FORD IS NOT GOING TO STEP UP ON THEIR OWN AND BE RESPONSIBLE ABOUT THIS, THEY NEED IT TO BE FORCED ON THEM TO DO SO.
2013 FORD EDGE SPORT CURRENTLY AT AROUND 48K MILES. (TODAY DATE: SEPT 10, 2020). WHILE BRAKING I NOTICED A HISSING/AIR LEAK SOUND,AND THE BRAKE GETS HARDER TO PRESS AT CERTAIN SPEEDS. DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT UNTIL I SEARCHED THE INTERNET. I READ ON SEVERAL FORUMS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE FOR THIS YEAR AND MODEL. I ALSO SAW THAT THERE IS A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION" PROGRAM 13NO2 WHICH PROVIDES AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER ON THE EDGE/MKX 2010-2013. I CONTACTED FORD VIA TWITTER AND APPARENTLY MY CAR DOESN'T QUALIFY. HOW THE DOES IT NOT QUALIFY!? THIS IS CLEARLY A WIDESPREAD COMMON ISSUE FOR THIS YEAR/MODEL AND IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD!!! ITS MY FIRST AND PROBABLY LAST FORD ILL PURCHASE. HOW CAN A COMPANY BE SO DISMISSIVE OF THIS PROBLEM ON THEIR FAMILY VEHICLE. GREED, THAT'S WHY. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED OR AT THE VERY MINIMUM THE "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION" PROGRAM NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO ALL EDGE/MKX VEHICLES! RECENTLY THE PROBLEM HAS NOW STARTED TO CAUSE MY VEHICLE TO STALL OUT WHEN IDLE AT STOP LIGHTS/SIGNS (ANOTHER SYMPTOM OF A BAD BRAKE BOOSTER). THIS IS VERY UNSAFE! OBVIOUSLY I'M GOING TO GET THIS REPAIRED BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO SINCE FORD GOT CHEAP WITH THEIR SUPPLIER OF THIS DEFECTIVE PART.
2013 FORD EDGE UNEXPECTEDLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING ON STREET. VEHICLE SETS A CODE AND NOT CORRECTED. NOW DETERMINED THROTTLE BODY MODULE NEED REPLACEMENT. ALSO HAVE A 2015 FORD EDGE THAT EXHIBITED SAME PROBLEM. IT WAS DETERMINED THE PURGE VALVE WAS BAD. A KNOW NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAD THIS SIMILAR PROBLEMS. ANY FUTURE ACTIVITY BEING TALKED ABOUT
TEMPERATURE BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR KEEPS FAILING. IT WILL EITHER GET STUCK AND STAY ON COLD OR GET STUCK ON HOT AND WON'T SWITCH OVER. I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THIS EVERY YEAR FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS NOW. I SHOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACING A PART LIKE THIS EVERY TIME THE SEASONS CHANGE.
DRIVING HEARD A CLUNK SOUND AND CAR WENT INTO LIMP MODE. GOING 50 MPH ON STRAIGHT ROADWAY. THE 'WRENCH' LIGHT CAME ON AND VEHICLE CONTINUED IN LIMP MODE. PULLED OVER AND PUT ON EMERGENCY FLASHERS. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. THEY PUT ON MACHINE TO CHECK CODES AND FOUND NOTHING AND THERE WAS ERROR NO CODE STORED. BEFORE THEY CAN DO ANYTHING TO FIX VEHICLE THEY NEED IT TO REPLICATE ERROR. THE WRENCH LIGHT IS OUT, BUT NOW WORRIED TO DRIVE BECAUSE NOTHING WAS RESOLVED.
CAR SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING 65MPH IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY NO WARNING , I AM VERY FRIGHTEN TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES PRIOR TO THE FIRST ONE, MECHANIC HAS NO IDEA WHY THIS IS HAPPENING . THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND A SERIOUS MATTER
TL* THE CONTACT'S AUNT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE DECELERATED INDEPENDENTLY.

VEHICLE HAD BRAKE FAILURE TO BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUES. FORD STATES NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL BUT HAVING EXACT ISSUE OF RECALL. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN BRAKES FAILED, TURNING INTO A DAYCARE CENTER.
DRIVING UP HILL THIS VEHICLE LOSS POWER AND THE TRANSMISSION DISENGAGED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC I LET THE ROLL BACKWARD INTO A DRIVEWAY SHUT THE SWITCH OFF WAITED ABOUT FIVE MINUTES. I RESTARTED PUT IN GEAR AND IT DROVE AS THOUGH IT HAD NO PROBLEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL REQUIRED EXCESSIVE FORCE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED SHE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND BRAKE BOOSTER HOSES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT CALLED LOCAL DEALER LANCE CUNNINGHAM FORD LOCATED AT 4101 CLINTON HWY, KNOXVILLE, TN 37912, (866) 591-3943 AND TED RUSSELL FORD LINCOLN LOCATED AT 8551 KINGSTON PIKE, KNOXVILLE, TN 37919, (865) 693-7611 AND WERE MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.

THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 170,000.
OUR FORD EDGE HAS HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER CONTINUING TO SWITCH ON AND GO TO THE AUTO SETTING. IT DOES THIS WHEN IT'S OFF OR ON. WE WERE TOLD THE COMPUTER WAS FAULTY. THIS STARTED OCCURRING IN 2016.
BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDS REPLACING BRAKE PEDAL IS HARD WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AND YOU HEAR A HISSING NOISE THERE IS A RECALL 13N02 THAT DOESN'T HAVE OUR VIN INCLUDED, WOULD LIKE INVESTIGATION TO INCLUDE THIS VIN
CARS DOOR SAYS IT'S OPEN WHILE DRIVING EVEN WHEN IT'S CLOSED COMPLETELY. ALSO WIPERS DON'T SWIPE UP AND DOWN
WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, MY BRAKES STOPPED FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT SPONGY AND MADE A HISSING NOISE WHEN I PRESSED DOWN ON IT. FORD HAS ISSUED EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE (13N02) FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM BUT DENIES IT FOR MY CAR, EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME MAKE/MODEL/YEAR THAT HAS HAD THE ISSUE. MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND ARE DENIED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AS WELL. THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A PROBLEM BUT WONT FIX IT. THAT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS
DRIVER DOOR AJAR SWITCH NOT WORKING.
DURING A TWO HOUR ROAD TRIP, EXITED THE HIGHWAY (65 MPH) AND WENT TO APPLY BRAKES WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT, ONLY TO HAVE THE PEDAL GO NEARLY TO THE FLOOR WITH SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF BRAKING. OVER AN EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO SLOW DOWN AND GET IT UNDER CONTROL. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS IN FRONT OF ME. PULLED OFF ROAD, RESTED A FEW MINUTES WITH CAR RUNNING. CAUTIOUSLY RETURNED TO THE ROAD AND BRAKES BEGAN OPERATING NORMALLY AGAIN. HAD PREVIOUSLY HAPPENED TO WIFE (FIVE MONTHS EARLIER) WHILE DRIVING APPROX. 30 MPH AND BROUGHT TO INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND SAID BRAKES CHECKED OUT FINE. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM JUST WAITING FOR A TRAGEDY TO OCCUR.
STARTED NOTICING SMALL DRIPS OF DARK BLACK LIQUID ON DRIVEWAY WHERE VEHICLE WAS PARKED OVERNIGHT. FURTHER INVESTIGATION REVEALED THE DRIP WAS FROM THE PTU/POWER TAKEOFF UNIT. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, I DISCOVERED THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS AND COMMON PROBLEM ON THIS MODEL VEHICLE BECAUSE THE LUBRICANT CANNOT BE CHANGED NOR DOES THE MANUFACTURER RECOMMEND ANY MAINTENANCE ON THE UNIT. FAILURE OF THE PTU IS DANGEROUS AND WILL RESULT IN VEHICLE DISABLEMENT. THEREFORE THE ONLY OPTION IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE UNIT WITH A NEW ONE THAT FORD HAS ADDED A DRAIN PLUG FOR LUBRICANT CHANGES AT SCHEDULED INTERVALS. THIS REPAIR WILL COST APPROXIMATELY $2000 PLUS LOSS OF THE USE OF VEHICLE.
WHILE DRIVING IN TOWN CAR LOST POWER AND LIMPED ALONG. YELLOW/ORANGE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. PULLED OVER TURNED ENGINE OFF THEN RESTARTED, WORKED FINE. MANUAL SAID POWER TRAIN LOSS OF POWER. THREE TIMES IT'S HAPPENED AND FORD CAN'T FIND CODE TO DETERMINE PROBLEM. NO CONFIDENCE IN CAR. IF HAPPENED ON HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEEDS THERE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN MAJOR ACCIDENT
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND SHIFT TO PARK LIGHT AND WARNING SYSTEM ARE CONTINUOUSLY ON DRAINING THE CAR BATTERY OVER AND OVER. I'VE TAKEN IT TO FORD FOR REPAIRS 3 TIMES AND RELAXED DEAD BATTERIES AND IT'S STILL NOT WORKING RIGHT. I HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR FOR 5 MINUTES TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OFF AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO GO OFF. I HAVE TO TOGGLE THE SHIFT GEAR FOR A WHILE TO GET THE SHIFT TO PARK WANTING TO GO OFF AND THE ELECTRICAL DASHBOARD TO TURN OFF OR BATTERY WILL DIE AGAIN.
OUR EDGE PASSED 100K MILES WITHOUT ANY REAL ISSUES. SOON AFTER 100K, WE STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES AT LOW SPEEDS (<10PH). STEPPING ON THE BRAKE WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY STOP THE CAR AND WE REALLY HAD TO PUSH IT DOWN HARD TO GET TO A JERKY STOP. OVER THE COURSE OF 2-3 DAYS, WE STARTED NOTICING IT WHEN DECELERATING FROM HIGHER SPEEDS. WHEN WE TOOK IT IN, WE WERE TOLD IT WAS THE BREAK BOOSTER AND WAS VERY COMMON FOR THIS YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL. I CAN'T SPEAK FOR ANY MORE ABOUT ISSUE, BUT SEE THAT IT IS COMMON AMONG THE COMPLAINTS HERE.
UPON APPLYING BRAKES, THERE WAS A HISSING NOISE. WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE INTO PARK, THERE IS A HIGH PITCHED WHINE. WHEN DRIVING, SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE STOPS NORMALLY, SOMETIMES THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELS SPONGY, SOMETIMES I HAD TO STAND ON THE BRAKES AND HOPE IT WOULD STOP. SEVERAL TIMES, I THOUGHT IT WAS NOT GOING TO STOP. I HAVE READ THAT THIS VEHICLE MAKE HAS EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE YEARS OF MANUFACTURING WITH THE SAME PROBLEM: FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTER. THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS FOR THE SAME VEHICLE MAKE FOR MULTIPLE YEARS. I CONTACTED THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY'S CUSTOMER SERVICE ON MULTIPLE DAYS ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THERE IS NO RECALL AVAILABLE FOR MY VIN NUMBER. THERE IS A NOTICEABLE PATTERN HERE, ONE THAT CAN BE TRACED TO THE USE OF FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTERS. SOMEONE COULD DIE AS A RESULT. PLEASE HELP ME FIX THIS CONTINUING PROBLEM.
I CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE DOME LIGHT DOES NOT TURN OFF WHILE THE DOOR AJAR ALARM IS ON. MY DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE WHILE THIS SHOWS THE DOOR IS AJAR. MY DOME LIGHT STAYS ON FOR 10+ MINUTES EVERY TIME I OPEN OR CLOSE THE DOOR. THE CONSUMER STATED THE FRONT LEFT DOOR HAD THE SAME FAILURE BUT, WAS REPAIRED UNDER RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT COVER THE COST OF REPAIRS FOR THE REAR LEFT PASSENGER DOOR AS IT WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. *JS *JS*JS *JS *JS
ON THREE OCCASIONS, THE BRAKE PEDAL HAS TO BE PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR MAKING IIT UNSAFE TO TRY TO STOP. ON JULY 29, 2020, THIS HAPPENED AND THE BRAKES HAD TO BE PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND WOULD NOT GO BACK TO NORMAL. IT IS NOW IN THE SHOP.
ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND VARIOUS SPEEDS, ON FREEWAY AND SIDE ROADS ETC, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS HARD AND IT WAS DIFFICULT TO STOP THE VEHICLE SAFELY. THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS DIAGNOSED BY A CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN THAT IS A FAMILY MEMBER. THE DEALER INDICATED THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE AND THE VEHICLE HAS 90K ON THE ODOMETER,
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING 5 MPH, EXCESSIVE FORCE WAS NEEDED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE DRIVER CONTINUED TO DRIVE TO HER DESTINATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COUGHLIN FORD OF PATASKALA LOCATED AT 9800 WORTHINGTON RD, PATASKALA, OH 43062, (800) 920-3914, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,542.*DT*JB
MY BRAKES AREN'T WORKING PROPERLY. VERY DANGEROUS. I'M TOLD IT'S A BRAKE BOOSTER, SOME 2013 FORD EDGE HAVE BEEN RECALLED BUT NOT MINE! THE BRAKES FEEL VERY SQUISHY AND WILL NOT STOP CAR QUICKLY, ESPECIALLY GOING DOWNHILL. I'M VERY AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. MY CAR IS STILL UNDER 150,000 MILES AND 10 YEARS. OTHER 2013 EDGES ARE BEING COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY AND CSP 13 N02, BUT NOT MINE.
I WAS COMING TO A STOP LIGHT ON CITY STREET AFTER GOING APPROX 35 MPH AND WHEN I PUSHED ON THE BRAKES, MY FOOT WENT TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT THE BRAKES WORKING. THIS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIMES IN QUICK SUCCESSION. THEN ON 3RD ATTEMPT, THE BRAKES WORKED. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME 3 TIMES IN PAST 6 MONTHS.
DRIVERS SIDE FRONT DOOR 'DOOR AJAR' ALWAYS STAYING ON. EVEN AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. BATTERY DRAINS BECAUSE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AND WHEN PARKED.
BRAKE PADS HAD BEEN CHANGED 8/19. BEGINNING 7/20, CONSIDERABLE EFFORT WAS NEEDED TO ENGAGE THE BRAKES. THE PEDAL WOULD BE NEARLY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE FULLY ENGAGING. WITH THE CAR IN MOTION, WE WERE CONCERNED THAT WE WOULDN'T STOP IN TIME.. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO OUR AUTO SHOP WHERE THE MECHANIC DISCOVERED THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER. HE MENTIONED THAT OURS WAS THE THIRD EDGE HE HAS WORKED ON WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM.
THE DOOR LATCH ON THE REAR DOOR (DRIVER'S SIDE) CONTINUES TO SHOW "DOOR AJAR". THE DOME LIGHT REMAINS ON BECAUSE IT REACTS TO THE DOOR BEING OPEN. DASHBOARD TELLS YOU THE DOOR IS NOT CLOSED PROPERLY; IT IS CLOSED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR MONTHS, BUT I FINALLY BROUGHT IT TO FORD WHEN IT WAS APPROPRIATE (DUE TO COVID RESTRICTIONS) I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE DOME LIGHT COMES ON, COURTESY LIGHTS HAVE COME ON, WHEN I HAVE BEEN IN THE HOUSE AND NO ONE IS NEAR THE CAR. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE BATTERY HAS BEEN DEAD IN THE MORNING WITH NO APPARENT REASON; IT MAY BE THAT THE LIGHT IS COMING ON BECAUSE IT THINKS THE CAR DOOR IS OPEN BECAUSE OF THE DEFECTIVE LATCH. THE FRONT DOOR LATCH IS BEING REPLACED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY; THE REAR DOOR SHOULD ALSO BE COVERED FOR DEFECTIVE LATCH
VEHICLE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT APPEARS ON DASH AS A BRIGHT RED WARNING WHEN DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED. LOUD BEEPING WARNING SOUND CONTINUALLY SOUNDS OFF WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING A DISTRACTION MAKING UNSAFE TO DRIVE. DRIVER IGNORES OTHER WARNING BANNERS AND ALERTS BECAUSE THIS "DOOR AJAR ALERT" IS CONSTANTLY ON AND RINGING. THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS ARE IN DANGER BECAUSE THE SAFTEY AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS DK NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING. THE DRIVER CANNOT LOCK DOORS WITH KEY FOB BECAUSE THE DOOR SENSOR SHOWS THE DOOR IS AJAR. DOME LIGHTS ARE CONSTANTLY ON WHILE DRIVING MAKE IT VERY DIFFICULT DRIVING AT NIGHT, IMPEDING SIGHT OF STREET SIGNS, STREET MAINTENANCE WORKERS, OTHER VEHICLES, AND PEDESTRIANS.
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON THE PASSENGER DOOR, AT NIGHT THE DOORS UNLOCK THEMSELVES, AND INTERIOR LIGHT IS ON CAUSING BATTERY DRAINAGE.
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I HAVE BEEN DRIVING WHEN SUDDENLY MY CAR LOSES POWER AND ENTERS LIMP-HOME MODE AND A WRENCH FLASHES ON THE DASH THAT SAYS SEE MANUAL. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE AFFECTING THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY ON FORDS MADE AROUND THE SAME YEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TURNING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH COULD EASILY LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.

WITH THE BREAK PEDAL STILL DOWN MY CAR STARTED ROLLING. I DROVE STRAIGHT TO MY MECHANIC. HE SAID IT WAS A BREAK BOOSTER PROBLEM. HE PRINTED OUT CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02 FOR ME.

EXITING A RAMP FROM A FREEWAY MY 2013 FORD EDGE DID NOT RESPOND WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AND ALMOST CAUSING A ROLLOVER FOR MYSELF AND WIFE. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR STOPPED BY APPLYING HARD PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE EDGE HAS A HARD PEDAL AND A HISSING SOUND. THE FORD DEALERSHIP I TOOK IT INTO TODAY IN BARTOW FLORIDA TELLS ME IT'S THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND NEEDS REPLACING. COST JUST UNDER $1000 HOWEVER IT ALSO HAS A FORD SATISFACTION WARRANTY 13NO2 IN AFFECT FOR THE 2013 FORD EDGE. I WAS TOLD MY 2013 EDGE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. WHY? *TR

I HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY FORD EDGE BRAKING SYSTEM SPECIFICALLY INVOLVING THE BRAKE BOOSTER. I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 40 MPH WHEN I STARTED TO APPLY THE BRAKE AND HEARD A 'HISSING' NOISE AND THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME 'MUSHY' AND ALMOST TOTALLY UNRESPONSIVE. I WAS ABLE TO BRAKE BUT THE BRAKING DISTANCE WAS INCREASED AND HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES TO GET THEM TO RESPOND. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT FORD HAD ISSUED A TSB (13N02) REGARDING THE BOOSTER. IT DESCRIBED THE PROBLEM I HAD INVOLVING THAT MODEL YEAR AND PLACE OF MANUFACTURE OF MY VEHICLE (OAKVILLE, ONTARIO). I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIRS BUT WAS TOLD THAT THE ISSUE I HAD WAS NOT COVERED BY THE BULLETIN BECAUSE MY VEHICLE DID NOT HAVE THE PART IN QUESTION. I CHALLENGED FORD AND EVEN CALLED THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT WAS TOLD EVEN THOUGH MY CONCERN WAS IDENTICAL, IT WAS NOT COVERED. I VOICED HOW CONCERNED I WAS DUE TO THE EXACTITUDE OF THE PROBLEM AND MY SAFE USE OF THE VEHICLE BUT WAS REPEATEDLY DENIED. I AM NOW ASKING NHTSA TO HELP RESOLVE THE ISSUE ALTOGETHER AND HAVE FORD PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. *TR
I'VE HAD SEVERAL INCIDENTS NOW WITH MY CAR, DYING WHILE I'M DRIVING, A COUPLE OF TIMES EVEN WHEN I WAS ENTERTAINING THE FREEWAY! WHEN I ACCELERATE, THE CAR STALLS AND THE DASHBOARD LIGHT OF A WRENCH. THE CAR WILL RESTART JUST FINE AFTER I TURN IT OFF AND START IT ALL OVER AGAIN.
SMELLING FUMES INSIDE THE CAR WHEN DRIVING AND IT LINGERS THE VEHICLES IS PARKED, EVEN SMELL FUMES INSIDE THE CAR THE NEXT DAY. SMELLS LIKE EXHAUST FUMES. IT OCCURS WHETHER I'M ON THE STREET OR HIGHWAY.
WHEN APPROACHING A STOP SIGN WITH MY 2013 FORD EDGE (79000 MILES), THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS EXTREMELY HARD TO PUSH AND THE VEHICLE ENTERED THE INTERSECTION. IT DID STOP AFTER APPLYING MUCH PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS HAPPENS VERY FREQUENTLY NOW. I AM AFRAID IT WILL NOT STOP AT ALL AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE.
ON (4) FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS THE VEHICLES BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED WHILE DRIVING. *TR
WAS DRIVING MY FORD EDGE 30 MPH, COMING UP TO STOP LIGHT, WHEN BRAKE PEDAL JUST GOES TO FLOOR. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE AT LIGHT. TOOK MY A BLOCK TO COME TO A STOP. CALLED DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT CAR FROM AND TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. WENT ONLINE AND FOUND THAT I WASN'T ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL FUEL ODOR COMING FROM THE FUEL TANK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC CONFIRMED A FUEL LEAK AND FUEL EVAP FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT REFERENCED THE FAILURE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V002000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.*DT*JB
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED WITH THE POWERTRAIN MALFUNCTION INDICATOR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO GABRIEL JORDAN FORD LOCATED AT (2400 US-59, LIVINGSTON, TX 77351), WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,800.*DT*JB
IT STARTED WITH A BURNT OIL SMELL THAT COULD BE SMELT INSIDE THE VEHICLE ONCE IN A WHILE. THEN LITTLE BY LITTLE GRINDING NOISES STARTED TO BE HEARD FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE AFTER SLOWING DOWN FROM A HIGHER SPEED. THE VEHICLE THEN STARTED MAKING A NOISE WHEN STEERING AND A RATTLING NOISE UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. ONCE IN A WHILE AND THEN STARTED BAGGING WHEN I WOULD GO TO ACCELERATE. THE NOISE IS MADE FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE WERE INTERMITTENT SOMETIMES THEY WOULD DO IT AND SOMETIMES THEY WOULD NOT AND MANY TIMES THEY GOT VERY LOUD. YOU COULD HEAR THE NOISE WHILE DRIVING AND MORE SO WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE WOULD BIGGER FORWARD WHEN GIVING A LITTLE GAS. WAS JUST MAY ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME BEFORE IT WAS NO LONGER DRIVE-ABLE. THIS IS ONLY A 6 1/2YR. OLD VEHICLE WITH 76,000 MILES. APPEARS TO BE MAJOR PROBLEM WITH TRANSFER CASE, REAR DIFFERENTIAL, AND TRANSMISSION.
THE VEHICLE BEGAN EMITTING A SMELL INTERMITTENTLY, WHICH WAS LATER DETERMINED TO BE GEAR OIL FROM THE TRANSFER CASE. EVENTUALLY, THE CAR BEGAN TO MAKE A GRINDING SOUND WHILE STEERING AND STOPPING UNTIL THE TRANSFER CASE BLEW UP AND DESTROYED THE TRANSMISSION. THE TRANSFER CASE AND TRANSMISSION WERE REPLACED, WAS TOLD THAT THIS TRANSFER CASE WAS AN "ISSUE" IN THESE CARS. AFTER REPAIR, THE CAR BEGAN TO MAKE NOISES AGAIN, GEAR OIL SMELLS IN THE PASSENGER CABIN, AND SUBSEQUENTLY, THE TRANSFER CASE AGAIN BLEW UP, FILLING THE PASSENGER CABIN WITH SMOKE AND DISABLING THE VEHICLE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY LESS THAN 100 MILES AFTER PREVIOUS REPAIR. TRANSFER CASE REPLACED AGAIN, WAS DRIVEN BY THE MECHANIC FOR 26 MILES, AND AGAIN BLEW UP LEAVING THE VEHICLE DISABLED. THE TRUE FAILURE APPEARS THAT THE CAR IS FAILING TO SWITCH FROM AWD TO FWD WHEN IT GETS UP TO HIGH SPEEDS CAUSING REPEATED FAILURES TO THE ENTIRE SYSTEM AND DISABLING THE CAR PUTTING ME AND MY FAMILY AT RISK EACH TIME. FORD IS AWARE THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE. THE PARTS DEPARTMENT HAS DOZENS OF TRANSFER CASES AND REAR DIFFERENTIALS AVAILABLE TO CONTINUE REPLACING AND THEY KNOW THAT THEY ARE PUTTING THEIR CUSTOMERS AT RISK. MY TRANSFER CASES FAILURES HAPPENED ON A CITY STREET (1ST TIME) TURNING LEFT, MAJOR HIGHWAY @ 70MPH GOING STRAIGHT DOWN A HILL AND COASTING (2ND TIME), CITY STREET GOING STRAIGHT (3RD TIME). THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED WITH ON MULTIPLE AWD VEHICLES THAT FORD HAS MADE WITH THIS SYSTEM.
THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR BACK DOOR HAS A SENSOR LIGHT THAT COMES ON JUST LIKE THE DRIVERS DOOR SIDE DOOR THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AND SHOWS THE DOOR IS OPEN AND WILL NOT LOCK.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON INDICATING THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE BACK DOOR IS OPENED EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED. AS A RESULT YOU CANNOT LOCK THE DOORS AND THE LIGHT STAYS ON INSIDE THE CAR. I CALLED FORD AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR. THIS OCCURS WHILE THE CAR IS IN PARK OR IN DRIVE AND WHILE IN MOTION AT LOW OR HIGHER SPEEDS.
ILLUMINATED DOME LIGHTS AND DOOR AJAR MESSAGES HAVE OCCURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE ISSUE OCCURS BOTH WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND WHILE IT IS IN MOTION, WHETHER ON A CITY STREET OR A HIGHWAY, WHILE TURNING AND WHILE IN A STRAIGHT LINE, I HAVE WRITTEN TO FORD MOTOR CO. REQUESTING ASSISTANCE UNDER THE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 19N09 AND RECEIVED A LETTER DATED 2/17/20 (SUBJECT CAS-25609702-R5T1D5) FROM FORD DENYING MY REQUEST. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE DOOR LATCHES NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BY FORD.
THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST 6 OCCASIONS INT HE LAST WEEK. MOST RECENTLY I WAS TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY AT APPROX. 50MPH WHEN THE ENGINE ENTERED A DEFAULT LOW POWER STATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I WAS ABLE TO PULL ONTO THE SHOULDER AND THE CAR BEHIND ME WAS ABLE TO AVOID A COLLISION BY SLAMMING ON THEIR BRAKES. ADDITIONALLY, THE CAR CONSISTENTLY PRESENTS SYMPTOMS OF ROUGH IDLE, ROUGH ENGINE RUNNING AT NORMAL SPEEDS, AND A HIGHLY DECREASED FUEL ECONOMY. AFTER PULLING THE ODBII CODES AND SOME RESEARCH, THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE CAR'S THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. THE ODBII CODE IS P2111.
TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY FAILED AT 36463 MILES AFTER MY WIFE GOT HOME FROM A 6 MILE TRIP. CAR TRANSMISSION FAILED TO GO IN REVERSE AND START VIBRATING VIOLENTLY WHEN TRYING TO PUT IN A FORWARD GEAR. CAR WAS 6 YEARS AND A FEW MONTHS OLD. DEALER AND FORD WOULD NOT BACK THE TRANSMISSION UP BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY,
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER ENTERING THE VEHICLE AND CLOSING THE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BELL COLE FORD LINCOLN LOCATED AT (2119 GREENUP AVE, ASHLAND, KY 41101) WHERE THE DOOR LATCHES WERE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOORBOARD. IN ADDITION, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO STOP. THE CONTACT CONTACTED FORD SERVICE 2816 N PINE AVE, OCALA, FL 34475 AND INFORMED THE DEALER OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE REGARDING THE BRAKES HAD EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.
WHEN WIFE FILLS UP GAS TANK THE STRONG SMELL OF GAS YOU CAN SMELL FROM OUTSIDE OF CAR.
WHILE BRAKING, THE BRAKES DIDN'T NOT PERFORM AS EXPECTED. THEY WERE WORKING FINE, THEN IT FELT LIKE I COULDN'T STOP IN TIME. I HAD TO PUSH THE PEDDLE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO STOP. IT CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD, AND ALMOST COULDN'T STOP IN TIME. THERE WAS A HISSING NOISE FROM THE PETAL AFTERWARDS. THE CONDITION EXISTED UNTIL I STOPPED, PARKED THE CAR, AND WAITED SEVERAL HOURS. THEN THE NEXT TIME I DROVE IT, NO ISSUES. I CHECKED THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND DETERMINED. - NO VISIBLE LEAKS - BRAKE PADS HAVE PLENTY OF LIFE - BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR STILL FULL
DRIVER DOOR SENSOR STAYS LIGHT SAYING DOOR IS AJAR.
MY WIFE WAS DRIVING YESTERDAY AND WITHOUT ANY WARNING, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND SHE WAS ALMOST IN A ACCIDENT!!! IT WAS LIKE THE VEHICLE DIED. IT ONLY HAS ABOUT 44,000 MILES ON IT AND I JUST BOUGHT IT WITH 41,000 ON IT. MY WIFE WAS VERY SCARED AND SO WAS I, AS I WAS AT WORK AND IT TOOK ME AN HOUR TO GET TO HER. I DROVE IT TODAY AND IT DID THE SAME THING TO ME, LOSS POWER AS I WAS DRIVING. APPARENTLY, MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED OF THIS. I NEED THIS FIXED AS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND YOU GUYS ARE AWARE OF IT. SOMETHING WITH THE THROTTLE BODY AND LINKAGE! I NEED AND WANT THIS FIXED. MY WIFE AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WHILE SHE IS ON THE ROAD. I AM VERY ANGRY AND DISAPPOINTED IN FORD!!!!
FOR SEVERAL MONTHS MY BRAKES HAVE GOTTEN WORSE AND WORSE. BRAKE PADS WERE REPLACED, BRAKES ADJUSTED AND EVEN FLOORING THE BRAKES SOMETIMES DOES NOT WORK. CAR HAS HESITATED AND SHUT OFF AT INTERSECTIONS. RAIN HAS CAUSED SOME HYDROPLANING. CAR CONTINUES ROLLING WITH BRAKE PEDAL PUSHED ALL THE WAY DOWN. I STOPPED THE CAR AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, BUT THE CAR CONTINUED TO ROLL SLOWLY AND RAN INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME! HELP! NO DAMAGE TO EITHER EXTERIOR, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN NEXT.
I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE AWD SEL MODEL, THIS PAST FEB. 7, 2020 AS TRAVELING ON A 3 HOUR TRIP TO NORTHERN NEW YORK,FOR THE MOST PART THEIR WERE NO ISSUES UNTIL I APPROACHED MY DESTINATION WHICH HAD HEAVY SNOW THE DAY BEFORE.I NEEDED TO DECLINE ON A STEEP ROAD THAT HAD SNOW, SLUSHY SPOTS, AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND SHIFTED INTO LOW GEAR THE ABS SYSTEM KICKED IN AND AFTER THAT THE PEDAL WAS SPONGY.AND PEDAL APPROACHED THE FLOOR.AFTER BEING A FORMER FORD DEALER FOR 40 YRS. WAS ABLE TO TAKE THE TRIP BACK BUT WITH CAUTION.I HAVE PRACTICED MECHANICS FOR 25 YRS OF THAT 40.NOW RETIRED AND TO IT TO A LOCAL TECHNICIAN, HAD BRAKES CHECKED,WERE IN GOOD SHAPE BUT ON THE CHECK OF THE ABS SYSTEM IT INDICATED A POSSIBLE STUCK VALVE IN THE HCU UNIT WHICH IS COSTLY.TAKING IT TO FELLOW FORD DEALER WHOM I'VE KNOWN FOR 45 YRS. TO VARIFY. I KNOW HOW THE FORD SYSTEM WORKS AND IT TAKES PRESSURE FROM PUBLIC TO COLLECT DATA AND AT SOME POINT ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS MATTER.
BROKEN SHIFTER CABLE. WHILE PARKING MY 2013 FORD EDGE IN MY GARAGE (HOUSE SITS ON A VERY BIG HILL), MY VEHICLE STARTED ROLLING AWAY FROM ME. ATTEMPTING TO GET BACK IN WASN'T POSSIBLE. MY VEHICLE ROLLED DOWN A VERY STEEP DRIVE WAY AND COULD HAVE KILLED ANYONE IN ITS WAY! AFTER LOOKING ONLINE I FOUND THAT FORD RECALLED 504,000 ESCAPE AND FUSION VEHICLES. I DID NOT FIND WHERE FORD EDGE WAS MENTIONED. THIS NEEDS TO BE MADE AWARE TO THE PEOPLE WHO OWN FORD EDGE! MY LIFE COULD HAVE BEEN DESTROYED FOREVER IF SOMEONE WAS KILLED OR SEVERELY HURT! AFTER TALKING TO THE MECHANIC WHO FIXED MY VEHICLE, HE TOLD ME THIS INCIDENT WASN'T MY FAULT, THAT THE SHIFT CABLE WAS BROKE AND THE CAR STARTED ROLLING ON ITS OWN RIGHT AT HIS SHOP. IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE TO PUT THE CAR IN THE PARK POSITION. MY VEHICLE DOOR AND FENDER WERE DESTROYED UPON LEAVING MY GARAGE BECAUSE I OPENED THE DOOR TO TRY AND GET BACK IN THE VEHICLE. I HAD TO JUMP OUT OF THE WAY OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN CRUSHED BETWEEN THE DOOR AND MY HOUSE.
REAR PASSENGER DOOR LATCH FAULTY AND EXHIBITS ILLUMINATED DOME LIGHTS, DOOR AJAR MESSAGE ALONG WITH NO DOOR LOCKS AND FAULTY ALARM.
VEHICLE HAD BRAKE BOOSTER RECALL 13 NO2 DONE PREVIOUSLY. AND BRAKE BOOSTER HAS GONE OUT AGAIN. CAR DOES NOT START PROPERLY FORD WILL NOT WARRANTY THE REPAIR.
SINCE JULY OF 2019 UNTIL I HAD IT REPAIRED END OF JANUARY 2020. MY CAR WOULD SHUT OFF(THE ENGINE) COMPLETELY GO INTO LIMP MODE-FIVE TIMES IN THE PAST SIX MONTHS THANK GOD THE DRIVERS BEHIND ME WERE ALERT ENOUGH TO NOTICE MY CAR GO INTO LIMP MODE-I COULD'VE BEEN KILLED-LITERALLY IT WAS 55 MILES PER HOUR I WOULD GO OR SOMETIMES 25 MPH-I TOOK IT TO DIFFERENT FORD DEALERS AND IT WAS STATED WAIT TIL A LIGHT GOES ON SO THEY COULD MAKE A DIAGNOSIS OR COPY A CODE-WELL SOON AS I STARTED THE ENGINE IT WOULD BE DRIVABLE TIL BOOM IT WOULD SHUT OFF AGAIN IN COUPLE OF WEEKS WITH NO WARNING. FINALLY, I DID SOME RESEARCH ABOUT THE THROTTLE BODY AND GUESS WHAT TOLD A DEALER TO REPLACE IT AND HASN'T SHUT OFF SINCE. THANK GOD I DID MY OWN RESEARCH-STATES THERE ARE CURRENTLY RECALLS BUT GUESS WHAT ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVEN'T COMPLAINED ABOUT THE 2013 EDGE FOR IT TO BE ON THE RECALL LIST-ITS AN EASY FIX-AND MY SONS COULD HAVE LOST A MOTHER-HUSBAND COULD'VE LOST A WIFE AND ELDERLY PARENTS LOOSE THERE PRIMARY CAREGIVER ALL BECAUSE OF A PART WHICH IS AN EASY FIX. I BEG YOU PLEASE ADD THE 2013 FORD EDGE ON RECALL NOT BECAUSE OF THE MONEY-BUT BECAUSE I GOT NO HELP FROM MECHANICS FROM THREE FORD DEALER-I WAS TOLD WAIT TIL A DIAGNOSTIC LIGHT COMES ON-WELL GUESS WHAT THE LAST FORD DEALER I WENT TO WHICH WAS 100 MILES ROUND TRIP TOLD ME WITH THIS PART A DIAGNOSTIC LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON-HAD I NOT DONE MY RESEARCH AND TAKEN IT TO RIGHT FORD DEALER I COULD'VE BEEN KILLED-DONT LET THIS HAPPEN TO SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE TIME TO DO THE RESEARCH-ALERT THEM WITH A RECALL-AND PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU DO PUT IT ON RECALL--I WOULD APPRECIATE A REFUND-FOR MY TIME AND TROUBLE. AND FOR PUTTING MY LIFE IN DANGER-YOU CAN'T PUT A PRICE ON THAT!!!!!!!!!!
WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED WHENEVER I PRESS MY BRAKES THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE GROUND AND IT BARELY STOPPED THE VEHICLE, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE HCU AND MODULE THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1600 AND THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE SHOP FOR 9 DAYS, I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS VERY EXPENSIVE PART WENT BAD AFTER ONLY 6 YEARS AND 67,000 MILES.
VEHICLE EXHIBITS ILLUMINATED DOME LIGHTS AND DOOR AJAR MESSAGES WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED AND FULLY LATCHED. RIGHT REAR DOOR. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND DOME LIGHT REMAINED ON FOR A SHORT TIME, BUT "DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE STAYED ON WHILE CAR WAS IN MOTION.
PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LATCH ILLUMINATES DOME LIGHTS AND GIVES ME 'DOOR AJAR' MESSAGE WHEN DOOR IS IN FACT CLOSED. THIS PROHIBITS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING WHILE DRIVING. THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL FOR THE DRIVER SIDE, HOWEVER MINE IS PASSENGER AND FORD WILL NOT REPLACE IT. THIS OCCURS DAILY.
I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH 2013 FORD EDGE RECEIVE A MESSAGE ADVISING THE LEFT REAR PASSENGER DOOR IS AJAR EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT. CHECKED ON INTERNET FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS CITING THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE FORD EDGE INVOLVING ALL DIFFERENT DOORS. RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY ENTITLED CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 19N09 WHEREIN THEY ADVISE OF A PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR LATCH ON THE 2013 FORD EDGE SPECIFYING THE SAME PROBLEM I AM HAVING AND ADVISING THEY WILL REPLACE THE DOOR LATCH ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. IT IS MY POSITION THEY USED THE SAME TYPE SETUP ON ALL DOORS ON THE 2013 FORD EDGE, THEY ARE AWARE OF THE DEFECT AND WANT TO LIMIT THEIR EXPOSURE BY LIMITING THE PROGRAM TO THE DRIVERS DOOR. THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE OR CONCERN PROMPTING THIS PROGRAM OR FORD WOULD NOT HAVE INITIATED THE PROGRAM AND IT WOULD APPLY TO ALL DOORS ON THE VEHICLE AS EVIDENCED BY MY PROBLEM WITH THE REAR DOOR. I DID CONTACT THE FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP CENTER AND WAS ADVISED THE PROGRAM WAS LIMITED TO THE CONDITIONS LISTED IN THE LETTER. THIS DOOR AJAR WARNING HAS COME UP WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND WHEN STATIONARY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNSPECIFIED SPEED, THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED AND FAILED TO IMMEDIATELY STOP THE VEHICLE CAUSING THE STOPPING DISTANCE TO BE EXTENDED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE BRAKE PAD AND ROTORS HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.
I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS FOR OVER A YEAR WITH A DEFECTIVE DOOR SWITCH ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR CAUSING THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT TO DISPLAY AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT TIGHT. THE WARNING LIGHT WILL STAY ON THE ENTIRE TIME THE CAR IS RUNNING, WHETHER STATIONARY OR MOVING. RECENTLY I RECEIVED THE ATTACHED CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM LETTER 19N09. AS YOU CAN SEE IT CLEARLY STATES THAT FORD'S OFFER TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE SWITCH FREE OF CHARGE IS FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT DOOR ONLY. I CHATTED WITH A FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ON JANUARY 29, 2020 AND WAS TOLD THAT AT THIS TIME THEIR OFFER DOES NOT EXTENDED TO OTHER DOORS. I WAS ALSO TOLD TO CONTACT THE NHTSA AND FILE A COMPLAINT. IN RECENT MONTHS I HAVE CHECKED ON SEVERAL FORD OWNER WEBSITES AND HAVE FOUND THAT DEFECTIVE DOOR SWITCH PROBLEM IS HAPPENING ON ANY DOORS OF THE AFFECTED FORD OWNERS' VEHICLES. TO ME THIS MAKES FORD'S OFFER POINTLESS TO THE MAJORITY OF THE VEHICLES WITH DEFECTIVE DOOR SWITCHES! ON BEHALF OF MYSELF AND ALL OTHER FORD OWNERS WITH THIS PROBLEM I WOULD LIKE TO SEE FORD EXTEND THIS FREE REPAIR TO ANY VEHICLE DOORS WITH THE DEFECTIVE SWITCHES! PLEASE HELP US!!
MY BRAKES BECOME SPONGY & GO TO THE FLOOR. IT OCCURRED SPORADICALLY BUT NOW IS CONSTANT EITHER WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR AT A STOP. IF SOMEONE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME I COULD NOT STOP IN A SAFE DISTANCE. BRAKES HAVE BEEN SERVICED. THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON LINE ABOUT THIS POTENTIALLY FATAL FLAW. MATLOCK TIRES IN ATHENS, TN REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER AND REPLACED ALL THE BRAKE PADS. THEY CALLED TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP CONCERNING RECALLS OR HOW TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM TO NO AVAIL.
VEHICLE'S FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH WARRANTY COVERAGE, SPOKE TO SEVERAL FORD SUPERVISORS THEY TOLD ME THEY SENT OUT A LETTER TO COVER THAT ISSUE AND I SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED IT IN DECEMBER 2019 WHICH I DID NOT RECEIVE TILL JANUARY 27TH 2020 THE LETTER CLEARLY SHOWS THE JANUARY 2020 DATE. HENCE MY MILES ARE OVER THE MILEAGE THAT THE LETTER STATES. NO FORD SUPERVISORS WILL OVER RIDE THE 245 MILES I HAVE OVER, SO I HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT MYSELF. I STARTED FIGHTING THIS ISSUE 4 YEARS AGO. IT'S IRONIC THAT I GET THE LETTER AND NOW THEY WON'T COVER IT. SO ONCE AGAIN IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE DOORS WON'T LOCK, LEAVING MY GRANDCHILD VULNERABLE TO ANYONE WHO CAN OPEN THE DOOR WHILE STOPPED OR PARKED OR HE MAY OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AND GET INJURED.
MY SENSOR LIGHT FOR DIRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT SHOWS DOOR IS AJAR WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. I HAVE TO OPEN AND SHUT DOOR A COUPLE TIME FOR THE SENSOR TO GO OFF
THE SPEED OF MY CAR WAS LIMITED TO NO MORE THAN 15 MPH. LUCKILY THIS HAPPENDED IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON THE FREEWAY. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A FORD DEALER AND THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY (ETB). THIS COMPONENT WAS RECALLED IN CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 16B23. HOWEVER, IT WAS ONLY ISSUED FOR 2011-2012 MODEL YEAR EDGE AND MKX VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 3.5L OR 3.7L ENGINES. GIVEN THE SEVERITY OF THIS ISSUE, IT SEEMS THAT THE RECALL SHOULD BE LOOKED AT FOR THE 2013 FORD EDGE AS WELL.
I REPORTED ABOUT 3 -4 YEARS AGO ABOUT DOOR AJAR PROBLEM. MY CAR WAS IN WARRANTY THEN. RECEIVED LETTER TO-DAY JAN 2020 ABOUT FIXING PROBLEM NOW MY CAR ACCORDING TO THEM IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND NOW THEY WILL NOT COVER THIS DEFECT. THERE SHOULD BE NO TIME FRAME ON THIS ISSUE. IT IS A FACTORY DEFECT THEY JUST WANT CONSUMER TO PAY ONCE AGAIN FOR THERE DEFECT NOT A HAPPY CAMPER.I WILL NOT RECOMMEND A FORD TO ANY ONE AS THEY DO NOT STAND BY THERE PRODUCTS
PARK LIGHT INDICATION NIT WORKING WHEN PUTTING CAR IN PARK. WHEN SHAFTING INTO PARK, THE INDICATOR ON DASH DIES NIT SHOW P. IT DOESN'T SHOW ANY TRANSMISSION SETTING. IF I TURN CAR OFF, AN ERROR APPEARS SAYING TO SHIFT CAR INTO PARK. DRYING FIRST FEW MONTHS, I COULD TOGGLE THE SHIFT PUTT ON OR WIGGLE THE SHUFFLE CONTROL AND THE LIGHT INDICATING PARK WOULD APPEAR THUS ALLOWING ME TO TURN CAR OFF WITHOUT ALARM. IT IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO GET THE LIGHT TO APPEAR AFTER PLACING THE LEVER IN PARK. AT TIMES, I MUST RESTART THE CAR IF I HAVE TURNED IGNITION OFF , RESHIFT AND HOPE IT RECIGNUZES THE PARK SETTING. SINCE THE LIGHT IS INCREASINGLY NOT LIGHTING WHEN IN PARK, IT'S A GUESSING GAME WHEN THRNING CAR OFF. IF IT ISN'T RECOGNUZED (ALTHOUGH SHIFT IS IN PARK) I CANNOT FULLY TURN OFF CAR. ONCE RECOGNIZED IN PARK (WITH OR WITHOUT LIGHT), THE CAR TURNS OFF AS IT SHOULD AND SEAT MOVES BACK AND NO WARNINGS OCCUR. I HAVE RESEARCHED A BIT, IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT FORD WANTS HUNDREDS IF DOLLARS TO REPAIR. I AM NOT SURE IF CAR US IN PARK OR NIT ANY LONGER
REAR CAMERA INTERMITTENTLY FAILS. THE CAMERA OPERATES FINE AT TIMES, BUT IN MANY CASES, AN ERROR APPEARS ON THE SCREEN INDICATING THE CAMERA IS INOPERATIVE. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO STOP THE CAR , PUT IT IN PARK, THEN REVERSE TO SEE IF IT WOUKD RESET. IT DOES NIT RESET. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN THE CAMERA INITIALLY OPERATES BUT FAILS AS I BACK UP. I HAVE BEEN TO FORD DEALER AND THEY SAY THAT THE CAMERA MUST BE REPLACED. DON'T QUITE GET THAT - WHY WILL THE CAMERA WORK FINE DURING KNEE ATTEMPT TO BACKUP AND THEN FAIL DURING NEXT ATTEMPT TO BACKUP! THE PROBLEM BEGAN LAST SUMMER (SUMMER OF 2019)
RECENTLY HAD MY VEHICLE SERVICED FOR AN ONGOING DOOR LOCK ISSUE WHERE FORD EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE. DURING THE MOST RECENT SERVICE ON 7 JAN 2020, THE SERVICE ADVISOR ALSO INDICATED AND DOCUMENTED THAT THE PTU (POWER TRANSFER UNIT) IS LEAKING FROM A VENT AND THAT INDICATES IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT APPROX $1,800.00. THE VEHICLE AS NOTED IN THEIR RECORDS AND MY ODOMETER, HAD ONLY 39,100 MILES AT THIS TIME. PER RESEARCH ON THE WEB IT APPEARS THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE FORD EDGE THAT FORD IS AWARE OF AND DISCONTINUED USING THAT PARTICULAR PTU. WHEN QUESTIONED, THE FORD ADVISOR AT HOLMAN FORD INDICATED HE WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY SUCH ISSUES NOR THAT A DIFFERENT DRIVE PART WAS NOW BEING USED BY FORD. FORD IS NOT OFFERING ANY FORM OF COMPENSATION OR CREDIT OR ANY RECOMPENSE AT THIS TIME.
SEAT REAL EASE FOR REAR SEATS DOESN'T WORK. READING FORUMS MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVE ISSUE AND THE FIX REQUIRES REMOVING SEATS AND REPLACING THE CABLE ON THE RELEASE MECHANISM. DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS I DIDN'T WANT TO REMOVE AND REPLACE SEAT BY MYSELF.
WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE TRANSMISSION FAILS TO SHIFT INTO 5TH OR 6TH GEAR CAUSING EXCESSIVE RPMS, NOISE, AND SHAKING TO THE FRAME AT SPEEDS ABOVE 50 MPH. THIS COULD BE POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS AND CAUSE SEVERE TRANSMISSION DAMAGE OVER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME IF NOT REPAIRED.
IN SEPTEMBER 2014, FORD HAS ISSUED A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION" NOTICE REGARDING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ON BRAKE FUNCTION COMPONENT. NOTICE ID :13N02. THE ISSUE WAS POSSIBILITY OF BREAK BOOSTER PREMATURE FAILURE LEADING TO UNPREDICTABLE BRAKING PERFORMANCE. THERE ARE 2 SIGNIFICANT ISSUES WITH THIS NOTICE: 1. THE PART THAT FAILS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN TREATED WITH IMMEDIATE RECALL INSTEAD OF AN EXTENDED WARRANTY OFFERING - AS THE FAILURE OF THIS PART LEADS TO UNPREDICTABLE BRAKING PERFORMANCE AT AN UNPREDICTABLE TIME FRAME. 2. IT ONLY COVERS VEHICLES PRODUCED BETWEEN CERTAIN DATES, WHILE THE REAL EXTENT OF FAULTY BRAKE SYSTEM COMPONENT GOES WAY BEYOND THE SCOPE COVERED IN THIS NOTICE. I OWN A 2013 FORD EDGE TRUCK WITH PRODUCTION DATE OF 06/13. THE MILEAGE ON THIS VEHICLE IS UNDER 58000. ABOUT A WEEK AGO THE BRAKING FUNCTION OF THIS CAR HAS FAILED SIGNIFICANTLY LEADING TO A NEAR CRASH SITUATION. THIS HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DRIVING CLOSER TO A TRAFFIC STOP AT ABOUT 20 MPH AND STARTED GRADUALLY APPLYING BRAKES AND TO MY SURPRISE THE CAR KEPT ON MOVING WITHOUT ANY NOTICEABLE BRAKING APPLIED. REALIZING THAT, I PRESSED THE PEDAL MUCH HARDER TO A DEGREE THAT WOULD BE CLOSE TO ACTIVATING ABS AND ONLY THEN THE CAR CAME TO A HARD STOP. AFTER EXPERIENCING THIS I STARTED RESEARCHING ONLINE AND HAVE LEARNED ABOUT FORD'S NOTICE OF EXTENDED WARRANTY ON BRAKE BOOSTER PART FAILURE - 13N02. I HAD EXACTLY THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS DESCRIBED IN THIS BULLETIN. UPON VISITING DEALERSHIP, THEY REFUSED TO SERVICE MY CAR UNDER THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY AS MY CAR WAS JUST OUTSIDE THE PRODUCTION DATES COVERED BY 13N02. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, I HAVE LEARNED THAT THIS ISSUE IMPACTED A MUCH LARGER NUMBER OF FORD EDGE 2013 OWNERS, WHOSE SAFETY CONCERNS ARE PLAINLY IGNORED BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY SAME AS IS MY CASE. BOTH DEALERSHIP AND THE FORD HOTLINE REFUSED TO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
DOOR IS AJAR NEEDS TO BE FIXED AGAIN. THE DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY IS AN ISSUE. I HAVE HAD IT REPLACED AT 24K MILES AND NOW OUT OF WARRANTY IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. THERE NEED TO BE A RECALL ON THESE DOOR SWITCHES. ONE HAS TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE WARNING TO GO AWAY.
WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 55 MILES PER HOUR WHEN WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A SHOT GUN WENT OFF MY PANORAMIC SUN ROOF EXPLODED. ALL AROUND THE OUTSIDE PERMEATOR MIDDLE HAD A HOLE
WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55-60 MILES PER HOUR THE TRACTION CONTROL AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF LIGHT LIT UP AND A RED BRAKE MALFUNCTION LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE STOPPED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. WE COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND IT TOOK TWO ATTEMPTS TO START IT AGAIN. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF LIGHT IS STILL ON. IT HAPPEN THREE TIMES SO FAR AND TWO OF THOSE TIMES WAS WHILE WE WERE ON THE INTERSTATE IN TRAFFIC TRAVELLING AT 60-70 MPH. THIS WAS NOT SAFE AT ALL. WHEN IT SHUTS OFF THERE IS A BIG THUD SOUND AND THE TRACTION CONTROL, TRACTION CONTROL OFF AND A RED BRAKE MALFUNCTION LIGHT COMES ON. AFTER THE SECOND TIME THERE IS NOW A RATTLE. I HAVE THE CAR AT HOME NOW BUT IT HAS A HESITATION IN IT WHEN IT IS FIRST STARTED THIS ALL HAS HAPPENED IN THE LAST 4 DAYS.
I WAS DRIVING MY CAR WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM. ALL OF A SUDDEN I GO TO PUT MY CAR INTO REVERSE TO BACK UP MY DRIVEWAY AND LOST ALL POWER STEERING. I WAS UNABLE TO TURN MY CAR IN ANY DIRECTION AND WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WITH 2 YOUNG CHILDREN IN MY VEHICLE. ONCE I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE POWER STEERING CAME BACK.

I WENT TO WORK THIS MORNING AND PARKED CAR I HAD A HALF A TANK OF GAS AND 8 HOURS LATER WHEN I GOT OFF OF WORK THE GAS GAUGE SAID THAT I HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS. WHEN I GOT HOME AND PARKED CAR I SMELLED A LOT OF FUMES AND GAS.
SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED. WE WERE GOING 70 MILES/ HOUR ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT EXPLODED OUT OF NOWHERE. BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER THREW OUR ARMS OVER OUR HEAD BECAUSE IT SOUNDED LIKE OUR CAR HAD BEEN SHOT AT. THE CAR SWERVED INTO OTHER LANES OF TRAFFIC. MOST OF THE GLASS STAYED BUT WE HAD LARGE CHUNKS FALL INTO THE CAR CABIN. THERE WAS ALSO LOTS OF FINE PIECES OF GLASS FALLING INTO THE CAR. WE HAD A 1 YEAR OLD IN HER CARSEAT THAT HAD GLASS FALLING ON HER HEAD. WE DIDN'T DARE DRIVE ANYMORE, TRYING TO AVOID THE GLASS CAVING IN, AND PULLED OFF AT THE NEXT EXIT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A FAILURE WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER. WHILE DRIVING AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOORBOARD, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP AND THEN SLOWED DOWN.

MY CAR TELLS ME MY DOOR IS AT AJAR BUT IT'S NOT
DURING A RECENT SNOW FALL. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WHEN I WENT TO STOP THE ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATED DUE THE THE SNOWY ROAD CONDITIONS. FROM THEM ON THE BRAKE PEDAL HAS GONE TO THE FLOOR WITH OUT RETURNING BACK TO NORMAL. I DID HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT AND FOUND OUT THE PADS AND ROTORS ARE FINE. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE ANY ISSUES AND TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE COMPUTER LOOKED AT. BECAUSE THE REPAIR SHOP DOES NOT HAVE ACCESS TO FORD SOFTWARE.
YESTERDAY, I DROVE MY VEHICLE TO A RESTAURANT FOR LUNCH, IT WAS FINE. WHEN I WAS LEAVING THE RESTAURANT AND COMING UP TO A STOP SIGN I APPLY MY BRAKES AND MY BRAKE PEDAL IS SPONGY AND GOES COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT STOPPING MY VEHICLE. AT THE NEXT STOP SIGN, I STARTED SLOWING DOWN EVEN SOONER AND AGAIN THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES CLEAR TO THE FLOOR. I PULLED OVER AND SHUT MY CAR OFF AND CALLED MY HUSBAND. HE HAD ME RESTART THE VEHICLE AND BACK UP AND GO FORWARD SLOWLY. THE BRAKE PEDAL THEN FELT LIKE IT HAD PRESSURE AND WAS STOPPING ME. I CAREFULLY DRIVE HOME, LEAVING A LOT OF SPACE BETWEEN ME AND VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME. THIS MORNING THE BRAKES ARE AGAIN SPONGY BUT THEY ARE STOPPING ME WHEN MY PEDAL IS NEARLY FULLY DEPRESSED. I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM LAST NIGHT AND FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2013 FORD EDGE BRAKE BOOSTER BUT WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THIS MORNING THEY INFORM ME THAT MY 2013 FORD EDGE IS NOT INCLUDED. THERE A THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE BRAKES ON THESE VEHICLES AND FORD IS NOT STANDING BEHIND THEIR VEHICLES OR MAKING THE PROBLEM RIGHT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND FORD NEEDS TO FIX IT. A VEHICLES BRAKES SHOULD NOT JUST FAIL WHILE PARKED FOR 45 MINUTES DURING LUNCH.
REAR DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT GOES ON WHEN DRIVING OR STATIONARY
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND A HIGH-PITCHED WHISTLING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO STOP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING. DURING THE FAILURE, THE LOW PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART.

BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER DEVELOPED AN INTERNAL BYPASS LEAK, AT TIMES THE PEDAL WOULD GO TO THE FLOOR WHILE ATTEMPTOING TO STOP, OTHER TIMES THE PEDAL WOULD FADE WHILE SITTING STOPPED WITH FOOT ON PEDAL. BARKE VACUUM BOOSTER DIAPHRAM DEVELOPED A LEAK CAUSING A HARD PEDAL AND VACUUM LEAK WHEN THE PEDAL WAS APPLIED. VACUUM LEAK CAUSED SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ISSUES.
DOOR AJAR PROBLEM
WHILE DRIVING OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD ON A CITY STREET, THE BRAKES STOPPED WORKING. BRAKE PRESSURE WAS LOST AND ONLY BY DEPRESSING THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR COULD A SMALL AMOUNT OF BRAKING POWER BE APPLIED. NO WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED AND NO NOISES, HISSING, ECT WERE HEARD. THE ISSUE OCCURRED THREE TIMES IN THE SAME LOCATION IN THE SPAN OF A MONTH. AFTER TWO INCIDENTS, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO SUSPECTED THE BRAKE BOOSTER MAY BE FAILING. THE MECHANIC COULD NOT CONFIRM AN ISSUE WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM, BUT WE ELECTED TO REPLACE THE BRAKE BOOSTER AS FUNCTIONAL BRAKES ARE ESSENTIAL AND A BOOSTER RECALL HAS OCCURRED FOR THIS VEHICLE, ALTHOUGH THIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF THE REPAIR, THE EXACT ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN IN THE SAME SPOT, SO THE BOOSTER REPLACEMENT CLEARLY DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED WITH NEWLY REPLACED PADS AND ROTORS AND HAS APPROXIMATELY 75,000 MILES. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED, THE BRAKES STARTED WORKING NORMALLY AND CONTINUED WORKING NORMALLY AFTER THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND THEN BACK ON AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WILL BE TAKEN TO OUR LOCAL FORD DEALER SHORTLY TO ATTEMPT TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE RANDOMLY STALLS DOESN'T MATTER IF I'M TURNING GOING SLOW OR STRAIGHT AND GOING FAST. THE WRENCH LIGHT WILL SHOW UP. I USUALLY STOP, SHUT IT DOWN AND RESTART IT. IT'S PRETTY FRIGHTENING. I BROUGHT IT TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND THEY SAID IT MIGHT BE THE THROTTLE BOTTLE. GOT THAT CLEANED UP WHICH WAS TO DIRTY AND STILL STALLING.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE CAUSING DECREASED STOPPING POWER. FORD RELEASED A BULLETIN 13N02 COVERING THIS VEHICLE UP UNTIL MARCH OF 2013. VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN JULY OF 2013 AT SAME PLANT. CALLING THEM, THEY STATED THAT THEY WILL NOT COVER. MY VEHICLE HAS 128K MILES ON IT AND THEY OFFERED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE BULLETIN FOR 10 YEARS 150000 MILES DUE TO THE HIGH RATE OF FAILURES AND SAFETY ISSUES. DEALERSHIP AND FORD CUSTOMER CARE ARE UNWILLING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PROBLEM CONTINUED LONGER THAN THEIR CUT OFF DATES. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT THE TIME OF FAILURE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 60MPH . DURING TRAFFIC, AS THE BRAKES BOOSTER FAILED DURING NORMAL STOPPING IN CONGESTED TRAFFIC, MY WIFE HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID THE CAR IN FRONT OF HER AS SHE PUMPED HER BRAKES TO TRY TO STOP THE VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY HER EXPERIENCE ALLOWED HER TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. THE LOCAL SERVICE STATION, FOUND THAT THE BOOSTER HAD FAILED, BUT WAS A FEW MONTHS OUT FROM FORDS SUPPLEMENT DATE. I'M ASKING THAT THE NHTSA REVIEW THE PROBLEM AND WILL BE SAVING PARTS AND SERVICE REPAIRS FOR FURTHER INFORMATION IF NEEDED.
BRAKE CYLINDER BOOSTER SYSTEM FAILURE. VEHICHLE VIN NOT INCLUDED IN PREVIOUS RECALLS. CAR WOULD NOT BRAKE; HISSING SOUNDS; HAD TO PUT IN NEUTRAL AND PUSH BRAKE TO THE FLOOR. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE OR SAFE IN A CITY WITH THE TRAFFIC WE HAVE IN HOUSTON. INDEPENDENT DEALER ESTIMATE TO FIX EXCEEDS $1200. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THIS VEHICLE FOR CONTINUED BRAKE ISSUES.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 91,000.
WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 EDGE (148,000 MILES), WHEN GOING TO APPLY THE BREAK IT SUDDENLY DID NOT WANT TO BREAK CAUSING ME TRY TO VEER FROM TRAFFIC TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. NEVER HAD A WARNING OR ISSUE BEFORE THIS.THE PEDAL WILL THEN GO ALL THE WAY DOWN. EDGE HAS AN FSA ITEM FOR EXTENDED WARRANTY OF THE BREAK BOOSTER. TAKING TO DEALERSHIP I WAS INFORMED THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS BAD. THE MECHANICS I SPOKE TO STATE THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER GO HAND IN HAND SO TO SPEAK YET FORD STATES THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT ONLY THE BRAKE BOOSTER. UPON LOOKING UP CUSTOMER ISSUES FOR THIS I SAW THE 2011-2013 F150S HAVE THE SAME ISSUES AND BOTH THE MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER WERE BEING REPLACED BY FORD AT NO CHARGE. WHY NOT THE EDGE? IT IS CLEARLY HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND MY BRAKES ARE IN GOOD CONDITION.THE DEALERSHIP ALSO STATED THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL ASSEMBLY WAS BAD, YET THE ABS LIGHT HAS NOT TURNED ON AND I AM NOT SURE THIS IS ACCURATE AS PRIOR TO TAKING TO THE DEALERSHIP I HAD A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND MASTER CYLINDER.
I DROVE FOR OVER 8 HOURS WITH THE SEAT WARMER ON HIGH AND I LITERALLY BURNED MY BOTTOM. I ENDED UP HAVING TO GO TO AN URGENT CARE A FEW DAYS LATER WHERE THEY PRESCRIBED ANTIBIOTICS AND A PRESCRIBED OINTMENT. IT HAD A BUG BLISTER WHICH BROKE AND NOW OPEN WOUND. IT IS DEFINITELY A BURN AND NOW TREATING FOR WOUND CARE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS SLIGHTLY ENGAGED, THE CONTACT HEARD A CONSTANT ABNORMAL HISSING NOISE. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED TO THE FLOORBOARD, THE NOISE STOPPED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ENGAGED IN REVERSE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GOODYEAR AUTO SERVICE WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO BERGLUND FORD, INC. (834 E MAIN ST, SALEM, VA 24153, (540) 389-7291) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A TEAR IN THE DIAPHRAGM AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,500.
CAR WAS MAKING A LOUD HUMMING NOISE WHILE IN MOTION.
VACUUM BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WENT TO DRIVE MY CAR, BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, AND IMMEDIATELY THE BRAKES WERE EXTREMELY HARD TO PUSH ON. LUCKILY I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY GARAGE, BUT MY BRAKES FAILED, AND I HAD TO HIT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO MAKE THE CAR STOP. I HAD A 1 YEAR OLD IN THE CAR, AND THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. ALSO, I HAD NOTICED EARLIER THAT WHEN I WAS IN DRIVE, BUT SITTING AT A LIGHT, THE CAR WOULD SHAKE. A MINUTE LATER, THE CAR DIED.
THE ENGINE STOPPED WHILE IN MOTION (ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS), USUALLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR TURNING. I LOST STEERING CONTROL AS WELL. THE ERROR "LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE" APPEARED ON PANEL. AFTER PUTTING CAR IN PARK AND ATTEMPTING TO RESTART THE CAR, IT USUALLY WOULD RESTART RIGHT AWAY. ON ONE OCCASION, IT TOOK 2 ATTEMPTS TO START IT. FORTUNATELY, THERE WEREN'T ANY CARS DIRECTLY BEHIND ME OR IT WOULD'VE LIKELY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. A MECHANIC CLEANED THE THROTTLE BODY, REPLACED A PLUG, AND REPLACED A MISFIRING CYLINDER. THE ISSUE HAS NOT HAPPENED AGAIN IN THE 2 DAYS SINCE THEN.
I PLACED CAR IN PARK ON FLAT GROUND, TOOK FOOT OFF BRAKE, AND CAR STARTED ROLLING. THIS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES WITHIN A WEEK BUT HASN'T HAPPENED SINCE THEN. I HAD TO USE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHEN IT DID HAPPEN TO PREVENT CAR FROM MOVING WHILE PARKED.
WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 2 IN WENATCHEE, WA AT 5PM ON OCTOBER 2, 2019 MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. THE SUNROOF WAS CLOSED AT THE TIME. THERE WERE NO OVERPASSES OR CARS NEAR ME WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THE WEATHER WAS PARTLY CLOUDY AND AROUND 72 DEGREES. I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH.
BRAKES STARTED TO MAKE HISSING NOISE. BROUGHT TO MECHANIC TO FIND A FAILED BRAKE BOOSTER. CONTACTED FORD BECAUSE IT IS PART OF EXTENDED WARRANTY. WAS TOLD BY FORD THAT MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE. WAS TOLD THE CAR WAS SAFE TO DRIVE, BUT IF THE BRAKES BECOMES HARD I WAS TO 'MASH ON THE BRAKES AND MY CAR WOULD STOP'. FORD KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM AND IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR VEHICLE.

WHEN GOING TO BREAK, BREAK PEDAL GOES HALF WAY DOWN AND THEN STOPS, ALL WHILE CAR IS STILL MOVING. BECOMES HARD TO PUSH. WHILE APPLYING BREAK, THERE IS A HISSING NOISE. CAR STALLS WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT. AT TIME IS HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO CRASH MY CAR WITH MY 8 YEAR OLD IN IT. VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. UPON TAKING IT TO A MECHANIC, THEY DIAGNOSED IT WITH A FAILING BREAK BOOSTER. DEALER STATED MY CAR IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE 13N02 EXTENDED WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH MY CAR IS A 2013 AND WAS PRODUCED IN OAKVILLE CANADA. I HAVE SEEN THOUSAND OF CLAIMS/COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT OBVIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND THE 13N02 NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED OUT TO MORE MODELS OF THE FORD EDGE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BACK IN APRIL SO THAT ME AND MY SON ARE SAFER WHILE OUT ON THE ROAD, UNFORTUNATELY NOW I AM STUCK WITH AN UNSAFE CARE THAT SHOULD BE FIXED UNDER THE 13N02 EXTENDED WARRANTY.
DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON WHICH MAKES THEE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON, WHEN THIS WARNING HAPPENS THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. TONIGHT, IT WAS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN THIS WARNING HAPPENED AFTER DARK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAYED ON WHILE DRIVING HOME WHICH IS A 20 MINUTE COMMUTE. IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING OUTSIDE THE CAR, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU LIVE IN THE COUNTRY TRYING TO DODGE DEER BECOMES 100% HARDER WITH INTERIOR LIGHTS ON.
HAD IT IN TO HAVE VACUUM LEAK TAKEN CARE OF AND THEY TOLD ME MY VACUUM BRAKE BOOSTER IS BAD AND IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY FORD AND NOT DRIVE IT IN CASE IT WON'T STOP AT ALL. I CALLED FORD AND ALL THOUGH THERE ARE RECALLS ON THE 2013 FORD EGDES MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ONE TO BE COVERED, THIS IS NOT RIGHT THAT ALL OTHERS ARE COVERED FOR THE EXACT THING THAT'S HAPPENING TO MINE AND THEY SAY I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. I THINK THEY DON'T CARE THAT I TRAVEL FOR WORK AND NEED MY CAR. HOW DO I GET THIS COVERED THROUGH FORD?

BRAKES MAKE A NOISE LIKE AIR IS COMING OUT WHEN I'M PUSHING ON THEM. HAD THEM CHECKED OUT BY A GARAGE AND THEY SAID THE PAD AND ROTORS LOOK GOOD. HOWEVER, STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH IMMEDIATE STOPS WHEN GOING DOWN MY INCLINED DRIVEWAY. BRAKES FEEL SPONGY AND NOT TOUCHY. ALSO, RECENTLY, SITTING IN A DRIVE THROUGH LINE AND AFTER IDLING STATIONARY FOR A FEW MINUTES WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE CAR TURNED OFF. SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. IT'S A 2013 FORD EDGE.
2013 EDGE SUDDEN LOSS OF ACCELERATION AT ANYTIME. GOING 75 DOWN THE INTERSTATE OR 30MPH THROUGH TOWN. MUST PULL TO SHOULDER IF ROAD SHUT VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART. VERY DANGEROUS.
2013 FORD EDGE FWD. SUDDEN LOSS OF ACCELERATION IN INTERSTATE AT HIGH SPEEDS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET TO SHOULDER OF ROAD.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN DEPRESSED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.
CHECK FUEL INLET CAME ON. THEN ENGINE LIGHT SEVERAL DAYS LATER. THE GAS GAUGE WILL NOT READ THE LEVEL OF GAS. NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS COMING ON. THE DEALER SAID IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER EMISSONS. AND IT SURE IS. THESE FUMES ARE GETRING IN THE AIR. AND THE VALVE IS NOT WORKING CAUSING THE GAS CAN TO GET METAL WHICH WILL IN TURN TEAR THIS UP .
DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND WARNING ALARM ON WHEN ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED CAR HAS APPROX. 38,000 MILES AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. FORD DEALER WANTS $743 DOLLARS TO FIX!. SHOULD BE A RECALL.
WHILE DRIVING THE CAR 40 MILES IT COMPLETELY DIED AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND IT CAME BACK NOTHING. THE CAR WAS GIVING BACK TO ME AND IT HAD THE WARNING FLASHING ON THE DASH WITH THE WRENCH . I TOOK SEVERAL PICTURES. DRIVING WEST ON I-40 DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. I PAID FOR THIS REPAIR AND SEE THIS EXACT SAME THING HAS HAPPENED. SEVERAL MONTH LATER THE BRAKES FELT LIKE I WAS PUSHING ON A BRICK. I WAS UNABLE TO STOP,. THE FORD COMPANY HAS A RECAL ON THE BRAKE BOASTER AND I WAS TOLD TO PAY 900.00 AND MAYBE SOME TIME THEY WILL INCLUDE MY 2013 FORD EDGE. SEPT 16 2019 , THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. THERE IS A RECALLFOR THE FORD EDGE 2013 BUT AGAIN NOT MINE I HAVE A FAULTY PURGE VALVE . FORD IS CHARGING 349.00 TO PUT ON A PART THAT IS AGAIN ON RECALL. THIS PART IS ALSO ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR.
DRIVERS SIDE REAR DOOR WILL RANDOMLY SET THE CARS ALARM OFF SAYING THE DOOR IS OPENED WHEN IN FACT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS HAS DRAINED MY BATTERY ONCE, NEEDING A NEW REPLACEMENT. I REPLACED THE DOOR SWITCH BECAUSE FORD DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WAS BAD ($400) AND IT STILL RANDOMLY GOES OFF. THIS ISSUE HAS LEFT ME STRANDED SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THE BATTERY BEING DRAINED.
WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HILL INTO TOWN I TRIED USING THE BRAKES AND THEY WANT COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME AND WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP IN TOWN WITH FAINT TO NO BRAKES OR FEEDBACK. TURNS OUT THE BRAKE/ABS MODULE WAS MALFUNCTIONING CAUSING IT TO DUMP ALL THE PEDDLE INPUT PRESSURE INSTEAD OF APPLYING IT TO THE BRAKES.
THIS CAR IS HORRIBLE. MULTIPLE SAFETY ISSUES! FIRST, MY AXLE NEEDS TO BE REDONE. CLICKING AND POPPING WITH ALL TURNS. SECONDLY, THE ELECTRONICS ARE HAYWIRE, WITH THE AC BLOWING HOT ON ONE SIDE AND COLD ON THE OTHER AND NOT STARTING WITH BRAND NEW BATTERIES. THIRD, THE BRAKE SYSTEM... HAD THE BOOSTER GO OUT. FORD REPLACED AND UPON THE DRIVE BACK, IT FAILED EVEN WORSE LOCKING MY ENGINE, SMOKE FROMTHE BRAKES BEING LOCKED UP. I HAD TO TOW BACK ON MY EXPENSE AND RENT A CAR FOR DAYS. THE REPLACED THE BOOSTER, BUT I STILL HAVE EVEN WORSENING BRAKE ISSUES. FORD TOLD ME I NEED A NEW ABS AND MASTER CYLINDER. IT ONLY DID THIS AFTER THE 2 FAILED BOOSTERS... NOW IF I HIT A BUMP OR GRAVEL WHILE PRESSING THE BRAKES, MY BRAKES GO OUT! I MEAN THEY FAIL! LUCKILY I HAVEN'T HIT ANYONE YET. IT'S OFF AND ON BUT HAPPENS WITH NO WARNING. THE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THERE'S THE CONSTANT SOUND OF HISSING AND AIR. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD MULTIPLE TIMES WHICH IS HORRIBLE AND TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I LEAVE WITH NO PROBLEMS UNTIL THE NEXT UNEXPECTED BLOW OUT ON THE BRAKES. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GOOGLE THIS MODEL AND THERE ARE TONS AND TONS OF REPORTS OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE. FORD SHOULD STAND BY THEIR PRODUCTS AND FIX TO AVOID INJURIES, DEATH AND LAWSUITS. I HAD NO ISSUES WITH MY CAR UNTIL OTHER THAN THE INITIAL BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE, UNTIL MY CAR WAS LEFT WITH SMOKE ALL UNDER MY CAR FROM THE SECOND BRAKE BOOSTER. I GOT ONE THING FIXED ONLY TO HAVE MAJOR PROBLEMS AFTER. HOW IS THAT FAIR? OBVIOUSLY FORD DIDN'T FIX CORRECTLY AND/OR GAVE ME BAD EQUIPMENT WHICH BURNED MY SYSTEM UP. NOW I NEED TO PAY FOR MY ABS TO BE FIXED? SHAME ON FORD! VERY DANGEROUS. WILL NEVER BUY FORD AGAIN. AT LEAST THE FOREIGN CARS STAND BY THEIR PRODUCTS. BUYERS BEWARE THE EDGE IS TAINTED.
THE DOOR SENSOR TO LET THE CAR KNOW THE DOOR WAS CLOSED, FAILED, RESULTING IN A CONSTANT "DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE. THIS OCCURRED ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND STARTED SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR (USED) IN 2017 AND WAS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. FOR THE BETTER PART OF THE PAST 2 YEARS I WAS ABLE TO REPEATEDLY OPEN/CLOSE THE DOOR UNTIL THE SENSOR RECOGNIZED THAT THE DOOR WAS ACTUALLY CLOSED, BUT THAT NO LONGER BECAME AN OPTION AS OF 9/9/2019. NO MATTER HOW MANY ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO OPEN/CLOSE THE DOOR, I COULD NO LONGER MANIPULATE THE SENSOR. TWO IMPACTS OCCURRED AS A RESULT OF THIS: 1. THE CAR DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK. SINCE THE CAR BELIEVED THE DOOR WAS AJAR, EVERY TIME YOU WOULD GO TO LOCK THE DOORS, THE CAR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK THEM. THIS POSES A SAFETY ISSUE. 2. THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT REMAINED LIT, RESULTING IN A DEAD BATTERY. I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO SPEND APPROXIMATELY $350 DOLLARS TO HAVE THE SENSOR REPLACED. I HAVE SEEN MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM EDGE OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE, YET FORD IS NOT BEING HELD LIABLE FOR FAULTY EQUIPMENT. THIS IS AN UNFAIR EXPENSE TO PASS ON TO THE CONSUMER. IF THE ISSUE IS NOT IDENTIFIED AS A "RECALL", THE LEAST THAT COULD BE DONE IS FOR THE ISSUE TO BE FIXED AT NO CHARGE BY FORD, IF/WHEN THE ISSUE ARISES FOR THE OWNER.
THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTION. DRIVING AT 45MPH CAR SUDDENLY SLOWS TO 2 MPH. SHUT OFF CAR START AGAIN, SAME THING HAPPENS. WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON. FORD HAS EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE ON EARLIER FORD EDGE MODELS BUT DOES NOT ON THE 2013 EDGE. THIS IS THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM AND REPAIR ( FORD SERVICE DIAGNOSED) AT A COST OF $600.00. VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM TO OCCUR SUDDENLY SLOWING TO A CRAWL IN FAST MOVING TRAFFIC. SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL.
IN AUGUST 2019 I SUDDENLY EXPERIENCED LIS OF BRAKE BOOST AND BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I WAS ABLE TO PUMP UP THE BRAKES AND DROVE TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS GIVEN AN APPOINTMENT TO EVALUATE AND REPAIR. DEALERSHIP REPORTED IT WAS NOT A BOOSTER ISSUE, BUT ABS SENSOR NOT COMMUNICATING WITH ECM. DEALERSHIP REPORTED THEY REPROGRAMMED AND WAS WORKING FINE. LESS THAN A WEEK LATER I EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE. DEALERSHIP CHECKED AND FOUND NO CODES ISSUE AND STARTED THEY BELIEVED IT TO BE MASTER CYLINDER FAILURE, BUT THEY WEREN'T SURE. THEY SUGGESTED REPLACING PARTS STEP BY STEP UNTIL THEY FOUND THE FAULTY PART, STARTING WITH MASTER CYLINDER. MASTER CYLINDER REPLACED, SAME ISSUE. ELECTRONIC MODULE TESTED AND FOUND TO BE OKAY. NOW THEY HAVE NO IDEA. FROM READING ONLINE POSTS, IT'S OBVIOUS THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL BRAKE SYSTEM. CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY WON'T ADDRESS ISSUE. LOCAL DEALERSHIP IS JAMES HODGE. HELP!! *TR
2013 FORD EDGE LIMITED 45K MILES TAMPA FL - CAR WILL RANDOMLY GO INTO LIMP MODE WITHOUT WARNING AT ANY TIME, ALL LIGHTS ON DASH COME ON ALONG WITH THE WRENCH. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, TWO ON A BUSY 4 LANE CITY STREET ABOVE 40 MPH AND THE LAST WAS WHILE MERGING ONTO THE INTERSTATE ABOVE 50 MPH. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT WILL EVENTUALLY RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. ONCE IN LIMP MODE I WILL HAVE TO PULL OVER, STOP AND RESTART THE CAR AT WHICH POINT THE CAR DRIVES NORMAL. DEALER CAN'T REPLICATE THE FAULT, SO THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THROUGH 75K MILES BUT CAN'T USE THAT EITHER AS THE FORD DEALER CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THROUGH RESEARCH I FOUND THE SAME SYMPTOMS ON OTHER FORDS WHERE THE THROTTLE BODY WAS AN ISSUE INCLUDING MY YEAR EDGE. FORD DID A RECALL ON A BUNCH BUT MY YEAR AND MODEL WERE NOT INCLUDED. CLEARLY FORD NEEDS TO EXPAND THEIR RECALL AS THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE.
WHILE TURNING INTO A SHOPPING CENTER, MY BRAKES SUDDENLY HAD TO BE PUSHED TO THE FLOOR TO STOP THE CAR. THE ISSUE CONTINUED FOR AN HOUR OF DRIVING, AND MY HUSBAND WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE HAVING TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. ONCE WE DETERMINED THE CAR NEEDED REPAIR, WE DROVE (CAREFULLY) TO A REPAIR CENTER AND THE TECH WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. ON THE DRIVE OVER TO THE SHOP, THE BRAKE FUNCTION GRADUALLY RETURNED TO NORMAL.

BRAKE FAILURE ON A 2013 FORD EDGE. I APPLIED MY BRAKES AS I APPROACHED STOPPED TRAFFIC ON I-26 EAST BOUND. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT STOPPING THE CAR COMPLETELY. I PUMPED THE BRAKES AND IT SLOWLY BEGAN TO STOP. FORTUNATELY I DID NOT HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE BRAKE PEDAL REMAINED AT THE FLOOR OF THE CAR. THERE WAS NO WARNING THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES. MY VEHICLE HAS NEVER HAD ANY TYPE OF BRAKE PROBLEM. IT HAS AROUND 50,000 MILES. I HAD THE CAR TAKEN TO MY MECHANIC TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. IN THE MEAN TIME I LOOKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I DID FIND A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS FROM EDGE OWNERS THAT EXPERIENCED THIS SAME PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY FORD. MY MECHANIC LATER INFORMED ME THAT BOTH THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE LOCATION OF THESE PARTS REQUIRES A LOT OF LABOR TO REPLACE THEM. TOTAL COST $1,375.
FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LATCH FAILURE. SYMPTOMS COULD NOT CLOSE DOOR. LATCH MECHANISM WAS FREE TO MOVE, BUT WOULD NOT LOCK INTO PLACE WHEN DOOR CLOSED.

DIAGNOSED AS FAULTY LATCH ASSEMBLY. APPROXIMATELY $250 FOR THE PART, AND $250 FOR LABOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER SYSTEM FAILED TO OPERATE. THE CONTACT HEARD AN AIR LEAK SOUND WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE BRAKE PEDAL ALSO FELT HARD AND WAS DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS. THE CONTACT DROVE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED OF AN UNKNOWN RECALL REGARDING THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE CONTACT ALSO DROVE TO FRANK FLETCHER FORD (3015 TURKEY CREEK RD, JOPLIN, MO 64801, 417-429-4495) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE DEALER PROVIDED A COST ESTIMATE FOR THE REPAIRS. THE CONTACT THEN SPOKE WITH THE MANUFACTURER WHO ALSO STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 165,000.
DOOR AJAR SYMBOL KEEPS COMING ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DRIVING AND SIGNALS TO SHIFT TO PARK AND CLOSE DOOR. VERY DISTRACTING WHEN DRIVING AND CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT
MY WIFE'S 2013 FORD EDGE LOOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE ACCELERATOR STOPS WORKING AND THE CAR STOPS FUNCTIONING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES. WE HAVE CALLED WHITES FORD IN URBANA OHIO TO CHECK ON RECALL. THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR THIS AND THE VEHICLE IS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE EDGE HAS 67K MILES ON IT. HAS NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT. FORD SHOULD ADDRESS THESE ISSUES. WE ONLY DRIVE THE VEHICLE WHEN NECESSARY DUE TO US NOT KNOWING WHEN IT WILL JUST LOOSE POWER.
DRIVING ON COUNTY ROAD, MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED. WRENCH SYMBOL LIT UP ON DASH. THE GAS PEDAL HAD NO EFFECT BUT ENGINE REMAINED RUNNING.TOWED TO A GOODYEAR SERVICE STATION: THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM AND THE SENSORS SHOWED NO INDICATION OF A PROBLEM. ON THE WAY HOME IT DID THE SAME THING. TURNING THE CAR OFF AND REMOVING THE KEY, CAR STARTS BACK UP. TOOK CAR TO FORD DEALER. THEY TOO SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AND THAT WHEN I TURN THE ENGINE OFF IT CLEARS THE COMPUTER. THEY RETURNED THE CAR BUT CHARGED $140. SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED TWO DAYS LATER. CALLED FORD FROM SIDE OF THE ROAD. THEY SAID THEIR TRANSMISSION GUY WAS OFF UNTIL TUESDAY (THIS WAS FRIDAY AFTERNOON). DROVE ABOUT 8 MILES AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. IT SEEMS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION DISENGAGES. I HAVE READ THAT MANY FORD EDGE'S HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE ETB BUT AS FAR AS I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL.
BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM INTERMITTENT FAILURE AT AROUND 100,000 MILES. FAILURE IS WORSENING OVER TIME.
THE "DOOR AJAR" SENSOR IS FAULTY AND HAS COME ON AFTER CLOSING MY DOOR AND WHILE DRIVING EVEN THOUGH ALL DOORS ARE SHUT PROPERLY. I WENT SOMEWHERE AND PARKED MY CAR AND LEFT FOR SEVERAL HOURS. WHEN I CLOSED MY DOOR, THE "DOOR AJAR" SENSOR WAS FAULTY AND REMAINED ON WHICH SUBSEQUENTLY KEPT THE CABIN LIGHTS ON AND EVENTUALLY DRAINED MY BATTERY AND LEFT ME STUCK. I HAVE ALSO WITNESS THE SENSOR GO OFF WHILE DRIVING AND I HAVE HAD TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR WHILE THE CAR IS MOVING TO TRY TO STOP THE CHIMING OF THE SENSOR. AS A SAFETY CONCERN, THIS CAN RESULT IN YOU BEING DISTRACTED WHILE DRIVING OR STRANDED WITH A DEAD BATTERY. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS AND BRAKE CALIPERS, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND PARRISH FORD (2900 RIVER RD W., GOOCHLAND, VA) WERE NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.
DRIVERS SEAT ROCKS BACKWARDS ABOUT 5 INCHES UPON ACCELERATION AND ROCKS FORWARD WHEN STOPPING. WHEN IT ROCKS BACKWARDS YOU FEEL AS IF THE SEAT IS GOING TO GO OVER BACKWARDS AND YOU PANIC FOR A SECOND BEFORE RECOVERING. THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH FORD EDGE DRIVER SEATS.
THERE IS A HISSING SOUND AND IT IS LITERALLY TAKING BOTH FEET FOR ME TO STOP MY VEHICLE, THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE, AND I HAVE LESS THAN 110,000 MILES ON THIS CAR. IT HAPPENED SUDDENLY AND OUT OF THE BLUE. IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR OVER A WEEK. THIS HAPPENS ANYTIME I'M IN THE CAR AND ITS MOVING. THE HISSING IS NOT AS BAD RIGHT NOW, BUT WHEN IT STARTED, IT WAS NONSTOP.
FOR OVER A WEEK, I HAVE HAD ISSUE WITH MY BRAKES BEING VERY DIFFICULT TO PRESS, AND STOP MY CAR. IT IS A 2013 FORD EDGE WITH ABOUT $106,000 MILES ON IT. THIS ISSUE STARTED SUDDENLY, AND ALMOST RESULTED IN A CRASH, AS I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP MY CAR IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, AND BLEW THROUGH A STOP SIGN. I HAVE SINCE DRIVEN IN MANUAL MODE, SO THAT I COULD DOWNSHIFT TO SLOW MY VEHICLE, BUT HAVE TO LEAVE ADEQUATE BRAKING TIME B/W MY VEHICLE AND THE NEXT, AND AM LEAVING EARLY AND LATE FOR WORK TO AVOID ANY TRAFFIC SITUATIONS IN WHICH MY CAR WILL NOT STOP. WE HAVE A 18MTH OLD, SO DRIVING WITH HER IN THE VEHICLE IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN FOR HER SAFETY ALONE. WE CALLED, AND WERE TOLD THIS WAS COVERED AS LONG AS IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER, BUT FROM READING THESE COMPLAINTS IT IS THE EXACT THING I'M HAVING AND I'M NOT SURE HOW IT COULD BE ANYTHING ELSE. THE HISSING IS WHEN I BRAKE, AND THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, THERE WAS A VERY LOUD SQUEALING. MY BRAKES ARE "SPONGY" AND I LITERALLY HAVE TO USE BOTH FEET TO STOP MY VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY, WHEN I CALLED I WAS TOLD THIS WAS COVERED AS LONG AS IT IS THE BRAKE BOOSTER, BUT THIS IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE WITH FORD, AND IT SHOULD OBVIOUSLY BE A RECALLED PART. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH MY CAR SINCE 8/19, AND I TOOK MY VEHICLE THIS MORNING TO BE SERVICED, AND HOPEFULLY IT WON'T TAKE LONG.
I HAD A 20 MILE AN HR FRONT END WRECK AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY IN CHILLICOTHE MISSOURI ON NORTH 65 HIGHWAY
MY CAR WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN STOP EXCELS RATING AT HIGH SPEEDS. THE RPMS INCREASE AS THE SPEEDS DECREASES. THE FORD DEALERSHIPS CAN NOT FIGURE IT OUT AS IT HAS TO BE DOING IT. IT CAN HAPPEN 30 MINUTES INTO DRIVING AND THEN MAYBE 1.5 HOURS IS, THERE IS NO CONSISTENCY. IT HAS HAPPENS FOR THE PAST YEAR. AND NOW TRACING FOR THE PAST SUMMER IT IS VERY ANXIOUS DRIVING THIS CAR. I AM NOT SURE MY CAR WAS CLEARED REALLY WITH ALL THE RECALLS.
ALTHOUGH MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE BATH OF 2013 FORD EDGE'S THAT WERE RECALLED FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER GOING OUT, IT IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE,, BRAKES BECOME SUDDENLY SPONGY AND YOU CAN HEAR AIR LEAKING FROM THEM. TOOK IT TO MY FORD DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS THE BRAKE BOOSTER.
MY BACK UP CAMERA SAYS "CAMERA IS UNAVAILABLE. PLEASE CONTACT YOUR DEALERSHIP." WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR TWO DAYS AGO AND IT STARTED DOING THIS, THIS MORNING.
BRAKE PEDAL IS SPONGY, TAKES MORE EFFORT TO PUSH TO HAVE AN EFFECT ON THE BRAKES, AND THERE IS A HISSING SOUND. BRAKE BOOSTER IS BAD.
TRYING TO STOP AT 35-40 MPH AT A RED LIGHT, BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, HAD TO STEP VERY HARD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP. AFTER THAT I FELT A SPONGY BRAKE PEDAL, HISSING SOUND, AND ABNORMAL BRAKING MOVEMENT. DEALERSHIP INITIAL DIAGNOSIS; BRAKE BOOSTER & MASTER CYLINDER, AT A COST OF 1600 COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHY THEY STILL HAVE A SPONGY PEDAL, NOW ASKING FOR 800 MORE FOR A ABS MODULE. COMPLETE DEFECTIVE BRAKE SYSTEM FROM FORD! 2013 FORD EDGE 125,000 MILES
VEHICLE WAS DRIVING ROUGHLY 60MPH ON A HIGHWAY WHEN DRIVER ATTEMPTED TO STOP. THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD TO BE FULLY PUSHED INTO THE FLOOR FOR THE CAR TO BEGIN SLOWING DOWN. THE CAR DID EVENTUALLY STOP. THE DRIVER THEN CONTINUED TO DRIVE SLOWLY (5-10MPH) ON BACK ROADS AND WHEN ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE THE BRAKE HARDLY NEEDED TO BE TAPPED AND THE CAR STOPPED IMMEDIATELY. THERE WAS AN AIR DEFLATING NOISE AND SCREECHING NOISE WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKE. TOOK THE CAR INTO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY IDENTIFIED THE ISSUE AS A POWER BREAK BOOSTER AND VACUUM HOSE FAILURE. FORD CURRENTLY HAS A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM (13N02) FOR SELECT 2011-2013 FORD EDGES WITH UNDER 150,000 MILES. MY CAR IS A 2013 EDGE WITH 139,773 MILES. HOWEVER FORD CLAIMS THE VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM.
MY BRAKE PEDAL WOULD BE VERY DIFFICULT TO PRESS, CAUSING LONGER STOP TIMES. THIS WOULD HAPPEN RANDOMLY, BUT MULTIPLE TIMES EVERY DAY. FOR SAFETY REASONS, I HAD TO LEAVE AMPLE SPACE IN FRONT OF ME, AND COULD NOT LET MY CHILDREN DRIVE MY CAR. WHEN I SPOKE TO MY MECHANIC, HE TOLD ME IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER. FORD CURRENTLY HAS A "PROGRAM" (13N02) FOR REPLACING THE BRAKE BOOSTER, BUT MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE MANUFACTURING DATES INVOLVED. MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED 2 MONTHS LATER THAN THE THE DATES INVOLVED. I HAD THE BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED ON MY OWN, AND FORD WOULD NOT GIVE ME ANY COMPENSATION FOR THE FAULTY PART.
DRIVER NOTICED THE BREAKS NEEDING EXTRA PRESSURE TO GET VEHICLE TO STOP, HISSING SOUND WHEN BREAK PEDAL IS DEPRESSED, AT TIMES BREAKS ARE SPONGY, AT TIMES BREAKS NEED EXTRA PRESSURE THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR BOARD AND VERY RAPID STOP TAKES PLACE. ALL THIS HAPPENS FROM VARYING SPEEDS WHILE STOPPING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT HEARD A HISSING NOISE WHEN SHE DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. ON OTHER OCCASIONS, THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY MORE FORCE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CALLED CHAPARRAL FORD (102 CO RD 773, DEVINE, TX 78016, (830) 665-4461) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT SHE COULD BRING IN THE VEHICLE TO RECEIVE A REPAIR ESTIMATE. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND TO CALL NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 138,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING FUEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RAYMOND CHEVROLET (118 IL-173, ANTIOCH, IL 60002, (800) 989-5939) WHERE THEY STATED THERE WAS A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THE FUEL PUMP MODULE, FILLER HOLE, AND FUEL TANK, WHICH WERE REPLACED. AFTER THE REPAIR, THE FUEL GAUGE FAILED TO PROVIDE ACCURATE READINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER, WHICH RESULTED IN A DISPUTE ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATOR WAS DAMAGED BY THE MECHANIC. THE DEALER THREATENED TO CHARGE THE CONTACT FOR THE REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 220,000.
DOOR AJAR WARNING WON'T GO OFF WHEN CAR IS RUNNING WHICH WILL NOT LOCK DOORS
DRIVER'S DOOR UNABLE LOCKED WHILE DRIVING, AND INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON CONTINUOUSLY. DOOR ALARM CONTINUOUSLY SOUNDING.
PASSENGER DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED BECAUSE OF THIS. UNSAFE TO STOP AT LIGHT OR PARKING AS ANYONE CAN OPEN THE PASSENGER DOOR AND GET IN. DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR FIXED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY YRS AGO- SAME ISSUE NOW AGAIN. DRIVER POWER SEAT ROCKS BACKWARDS WHEN GETTING IN OR IF SOLID STOPS- VERY UNSAFE AS YOU ARE NOT IN CONTROL OF CAR WHEN IT'S ROCKING- FEARFUL THAT IT WILL BRAKE LOOSE. QUOTE FROM DEALER WAS $1600! I PAID EXTRA WHEN BUYING CAR FOR LEATHER AND POWER SEATS- THEY SHOULD NOT BREAK AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY FORD
COMING INTO WORK, IN BEGINNING TO TURN A CORNER THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SUDDENLY LOCK UP AND HAD TO LITERALLY FORCE IT TO TURN CORNER. IN TURNING THAT CORNER THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND I DRIFTED INTO A GRASS AREA OUT OF TRAFFIC. THANKFULLY I WAS IN A LOW MPH SETTING. NOW 3 DAYS PRIOR TO THIS THE CAR HAS BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS STAYING IN PARK. EMERGENCY BRAKE HAS TO BE PUT ON BECAUSE THE CAR DRIFTS OUT OF PARK. 2 WEEKS PRIOR WE HAVE HAD THE O2 SENSORS REPLACED AS WELL AS THE BRAKE CYLINDERS ON THE CAR DUE TO HAVING TO FULLY JAM DOWN ON THE BRAKES IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO STOP.
WHILE DRIVING MY CAR THE AC SHUT OFF THE RADIO SHUT OFF AND THE RADIO DISPLAY AND THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE VEHICLE SLOW DOWN AT FLICKERED OFF FOR A MOMENT THEN CAME BACK ON AND I STOPPED AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. I THEN STARTED IT WITH NO ISSUES SO I KEPT DRIVING WITHIN LESS THAN HALF A MILE IT DID IT A SECOND TIME AND I TOOK MY CAR HOME AND LET IT SIT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME ITS HAPPENED TO ME SINCE BUYING IT USED IN AUGUST 2018
TRANSMISSION JERKING, SHUDDERING, STALLING, IN MOTION. SEAT BELT GET STOCK, CAMERA SOMETIMES WORKS, AND SOMETIMES DONT WORK.
JULY 21, 2019 DRIVING ALONG ON A 35 MPH ROAD AND CAR JUST STOPPED ACCELERATING WHEN PUSHING GAS PEDAL. WRENCH INDICATOR APPEARED AND HAD TO PUT CAR IN NEUTRAL TO SAFELY PULL OVER. CAR DID RESTART AFTER SHUTTING OFF. SAME INCIDENT HAPPENED AN HOUR LATER GOING THE SAME SPEED. WE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THE NUMEROUS OTHER FORD EDGE SAME COMPLAINTS THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. HAD IT REPLACED AND CAR IS RUNNING SMOOTH WITH NO PROBLEMS. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY AND CONCERNING ISSUE. I CAN'T IMAGINE BEING ON THE EXPRESSWAY LIKE OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED. FORD MAKE THIS RIGHT AND PUT OUT A RECALL.
SUDDEN ONSET OF ERRATIC BRAKING. PEDAL FEELS INCREDIBLY FIRM AT TIMES, REQUIRING SIGNIFICANTLY MORE PRESSURE THAN NORMAL TO STOP. OTHER TIMES THE PEDAL IS SPONGY AND HAVE A HUGE AMOUNT OF PEDAL TRAVEL. WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED THERE IS AN AUDIBLE HISSING SOUND, AND IF DEPRESSED FULLY, THERE IS A LOUD AUDIBLE SQUEALING SOUND.
MY VEHICLE SHUTTERS SEVERAL TIMES WHEN.MOVING IN.MOTION. THEN WARNING.COMES ON CHECK FUEL INLET WHILE IN.MOTION. THEN MOMENTS PASS AND THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY AND IN DRIVE. THEN I PANIC.
I NOTICED THAT IT TOOK MORE EFFORT TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GET MY VEHICLE TO STOP. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO BE CHECKED. THEY TOLD ME IT IS THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. THEY TOLD ME THE COST WOULD BE $1000. I FOUND A FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE BULLETIN #13N02 THAT SPECIFICALLY EXPLAINS WHAT I AM HAVING REPAIRED. THIS BULLETIN AFFECTS 2010 TO 2013 FORD EDGE FOR 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP MY EDGE VIN IS NOT ON THE LIST. THIS IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE OCCURRING WITH MY VEHICLE AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED BEFORE IT BECAME AN ISSUE. IT WAS LUCKY I DIDN'T HIT ANYONE OR ANYTHING.
BREAK BOOSTER WENT OUT ON CAR. THE 2013 FORD EDGE DID NOT INCLUDE MY VIN.
THE BRAKES BECAME MUSHY AND LOST ALL STOPPING ABILITY WHILE DRIVING ALMOST CAUSING ME TO RUN INTO VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME. THE FORD DEALER INFORMS ME THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAS FAILED AND IT WILL COST $950.00 TO REPAIR/REPLACE. THE DEALER ALSO INFORMED ME THAT WHILE THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON THE 2013 FORD EDGE, MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 45 THOUSAND MILES ON IT AND ONLY DRIVEN BY MY WIFE AND I IN AND AROUND THE LOCAL AREA...WE ARE BOTH IN OUR 70S. WHILE RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I FOUND THAT THERE ARE LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURES ON THE 2013 FORD EDGE THAT ARE EXACTLY LIKE THE FAILURE I EXPERIENCED. SO WHY WOULD MY VIN NUMBER BE EXCLUDED FROM THE RECALL. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A DEFECTIVE BRAKE SYSTEM AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT NO COST TO ME.
WHEN APPLYING BRAKES AT START UP AND AT SLOW SPEEDS BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD TO PRESS. AT HIGHER SPEEDS BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES SPONGY AND YOU DON'T HAVE MUCH BRAKE PEDAL LEFT. WHEN IN TRAFFIC AND GRADUALLY MOVING FORWARD BREAK PEDAL BECOMES HARD TO PRESS AGAIN. WHEN SETTING AT IDLE AFTER WARMED UP PEDAL WILL GO ALL WAY TO FLOOR AND A LOUD SCREECHING SOUND CAN BE HEARD. PROBLEM IS WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER. A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THAT YEAR (2013), RECALL NUMBER 13NO2. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS IT DOESN'T COVER THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE IT WASN'T MANUFACTURED AT A SPECIFIC PLANT. THIS EDGE HAS THE SAME DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEMS THAT LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE DESCRIBED ON LINE FOR THAT YEAR OF VEHICLE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN BRAKES ARE GOING TO BE HARD TO PRESS OR IF THEY'RE GOING TO BE SPONGY. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 45,000 MILES ON IT. A BRAKE BOOSTER SHOULDN'T BE FAILING THAT SOON UNLESS THEIR IS AN ISSUE WITH QUALITY OF MANUFACTURED PART.
THE DRIVER'S SEAT ROCKS WHEN ACCELERATING OR BRAKING, AS IF IT HAS COME LOOSE. I HAVE TAKEN CAR TO MY MECHANIC TO HAVE IT REPAIRED, HE SAYS THERE IS NOTHING LOOSE FOR HIM TO TIGHTEN. HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS.
CAR WOULD PERIODICALLY SHUT DOWN AND I WOULD BE UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. WOULD HAVE TO PULL TO SIDE OF ROAD, SHUT ENGINE OFF AND RESTART CAR TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE. BECAME WORSE AND WORSE, RESEARCHED ONLINE AND DISCOVERED MANY OTHER PEOPLE WERE HAVING SAME ISSUES. FINALLY TOOK CAR TO MECHANIC, HAD TO HAVE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED WHICH COST $475.18 I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL ISSUE WITH FORD WHEN SO MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE.
THE 2013 FORD EDGE SE HAS HAD THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING TWICE. ONCE ON A TWO LANE ROAD AND ONCE ON I 95 INTERSTATE WITH OUR FAMILY IN IT. LUCKILY, WE WERE ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. WHEN IT SHUTS DOWN IT SHOWS WRENCH SYMBOL ON DASH AND SAYS SEE USERS MANUAL. THEN THE CAR RESTARTS AND DRIVES NORMALLY UNTIL THE NEXT EVENT. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE AND WE WILL TAKE THE CAR IN TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. MANY WEB THREADS HAVE POINTED TO THE THROTTLE BODY AS BEING DEFECTIVE AND REPLACED. THEN THE ISSUE STOPS. HOPEFULLY THIS DESCRIPTION HELPS ANOTHER FAMILY FROM BEING INJURED ON THE ROADWAYS. IT IS UNDERSTANDABLE THAT CARS WILL HAVE ISSUES BUT ONCE FORD HAS NOTICE OF THIS PROBLEM WE HOPE THEY RESOLVE IT IN A TIMELY MANNER. THIS DESCRIPTION IS AN OFFICIAL NOTICE OF THIS SEVERE SAFETY CONCERN OF THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOORBOARD WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES SEIZED OFTEN. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS SCHEDULED FOR A CHECK-UP BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 113,000.
TL* THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE SERVICE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER APPROXIMATELY 3 ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION, BUT WAS TOWED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE AUTO THROTTLE BODY FAILED AND NEEDED TO REPLACED. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC CLEANED THE AUTO THROTTLE BODY, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. FORD OF CLERMONT (1101 EAST, W HWY 50, CLERMONT, FL 34711, (352) 394-6161) STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO CALL NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 59,000.
BRAKES STARTED LOSING GRIP AS I ENTERED A 4-WAY STOP. CAR BARELY STOPPED AND BRAKES WORKED INTERMITTENTLY AFTER. BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED. AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM ON FORD EDGE CARS. MINE MISSED THE CHANCE TO BE COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY BY ONE! MONTH. LUCKY THE CAR STOPPED, UNLUCKY THAT IT WAS AN EXPENSIVE FIX.
STARTING A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE BRAKE PEDAL ON OUR 2013 FORD EDGE WENT VERY SOFT UPON BRAKING MAKING THE VEHICLE VERY DIFFICULT TO SAFELY STOP. TOOK THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALER AND THEY COULD FIND NO ISSUES AS THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO RESOLVE ITSELF. THE BRAKE ISSUE REOCCURRED AGAIN, BUT, AGAIN THE DEALER COULD FIND NOTHING AS IT RESOLVED ITSELF. LAST WEEK THE ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN. THIS TIME, THE DEALER FINALLY DIAGNOSED THE FIX AS A NEW MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER; THEY ARE CURRENTLY MAKING THE REPAIRS AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $2,300 (WON'T HAVE THE FINAL COST UNTIL I PICK IT UP NEXT WEEK). THIS IS MY WIFE'S VEHICLE AND ALL OF THE FAILURE OCCURRENCES WERE WHEN SHE WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE. SHE CLEARLY STATES THAT HER SAFETY WAS SEVERELY COMPROMISED WITH EACH OCCURRENCE AS THE VEHICLE WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SAFELY STOP. ADDITIONALLY, WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT ALTHOUGH THIS ISSUE FOR THIS MODEL YEAR HAVE BEEN RECALLED BY FORD, OUR VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED. WITH ALL OF THE OCCURRENCES OF THIS VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE FORD MOTOR NEEDS TO COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIRS. A FULL AND COMPLETE RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE'S DRIVER AS WELL AS THE DRIVING PUBLIC IS AT RISK OF INJURY AND EVEN DEATH ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND WHEN IT DOES OCCUR IS A COMPLETE SURPRISE TO THE DRIVER.
A DAY AGO AS I WAS DRIVING MY 2013 FORD EDGE, I NOTICED THAT IT TOOK MORE EFFORT TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND WENT ALMOST TO THE FLOOR. WHEN I DID THIS IT MADE A HISSING AND SQUEAK SOUND. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO BE CHECKED AT A FORD DEALERSHIP IN DELAWARE. THEY TOLD ME IT IS THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. THEY TOLD ME THE COST WOULD BE $1100. I FOUND A FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE BULLETIN #13N02 THAT SPECIFICALLY EXPLAINS WHAT I AM HAVING REPAIRED. THIS BULLETIN AFFECTS 2010 TO 2013 FORD EDGE FOR 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP MY EDGE VIN IS NOT ON THE LIST. I CALLED FORD AND THEY ARE LOOKING INTO IT BUT THEY NEED TO COVER THIS AS I WAS TOLD CAN POSE A DANGEROUS SITUATION OF THE BRAKES FAILING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AND ATTEMPTING TO STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK. THE VEHICLE WAS HALFWAY PAST THE LIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTERS FAILED. THE MECHANIC REFERRED THE CONTACT TO A DEALER. THE CONTACT CALLED NORM REEVES FORD LINCOLN (18900 STUDEBAKER RD, CERRITOS, CA 90703) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE REPAIR WOULD COST $800. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT A SAFETY LETTER WAS ISSUED FOR THE BRAKES FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS OWNED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,000.
BRAKES ARE HISSING AND SPONGEY. I THINK IT IS THE BRAKE BOOSTER. FORD ACKNOWLEDGES THE ISSUE WITH THESE BRAKES BUT SAYS MY CAR IS NOT LISTED IN THE RECALL
WE HAVE HAD OUR FORD EDGE FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS AND NO PROBLEMS UNTIL A FEW WEEKS AGO WHEN WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND LOST POWER TO THE ACCELERATOR. MANAGED TO GET THE CAR OVER TO THE SHOULDER TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND BACK ON AND EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. IT WAS THEN GOOD FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND AGAIN DID IT 5 TIMES THE OTHER DAY WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 91E ONE OF THE MOST BUSY HERE IN CALIFORNIA.THIS CONDITION CAN PUT YOU IN A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION.
THE DRIVERS DOOR LATCH LATCHES BUT THE LIGHT COMES ON AND SAYS THE DOOR IS AJAR....MAKING ME LEARY IF THE DOOR WILL OPEN WHILE DRIVING.....HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND DRIVING
FUEL FILLER NECK CONTINUES TO CAUSE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. CHECK FUEL INLET MESSAGE ALSO APPEARS ON DASH. I KNOW THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL NOT SURE AS TO WHY MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR WINDOW SWITCH STOP WORKING 'NO POWER '. DEFECTED HARNESS CONNECTION
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS STAYING ON,AS WELL AS THE MAP LIGHTS. RUNS THE BATTERY DOWN. THE MAP LIGHTS COME ON AT WILL INCLUDING DURING THE NIGHT. WIFE HAS GOTTEN IN THE EDGE AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON AND IT STARTS BEEPING. FORD HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS DOOR SWITCH SINCE 2007 AND REFUSES TO RECALL ALL THE CARS AND TRUCKS THAT HAVE THIS SWITCH. I HAVE GONE ON LINE AND THERE ARE MILLIONS OF COMPLAINTS . WE ARE IF FEAR OF THIS CASING A FIRE OR WORSE YET FOR SOME REASON NOT ALLOWING THE AIR BAG TO DEPLOY IN A CRASH. MY WIFE IS SCARED TO DRIVE THIS SUV AND FORD REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS A PROBLEM AND A RECALL IS NEEDED.
2013 FORD EDGE CURRENT ISSUE: WITHOUT ANY WARNING BRAKES STARTED HISSING AND SCREECHING. IN THE SAME DAY THE BRAKES WERE HARD TO PRESS AND DID NOT STOP THE CAR AND THEN THEY WERE LOOSE TO THE FLOOR, BUT THEY DID NOT STOP THE CAR. I GOOGLED AND FOUND OUT THAT SOME VEHICLES WITH THE SAME YEAR 2013 HAVE A RECALL, BUT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE SYMPTOMS LEAD TO A FAILING BREAK BOOSTER. MY CARS INFORMATION SYSTEM CHECK DOES NOT SHOW ANY WARNINGS, BRAKES SAY OK, BUT I AM NOT ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR. THE BRAKES ARE NOT GRINDING. TWICE I HAD TO SWERVE ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY TO AVOID REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS FRIGHTENING TO OCCUR TO ANYONE WITHOUT A SYSTEM WARNING.
THE DRIVERS DOOR INTERMITTENTLY DOESN'T RECOGNIZE WHEN ITS CLOSED. THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE OTHER DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON FOR A SHORT DISTANCE.
THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY WITH AN EVAP. LEAK CODE. WE'VE CHECKED ALL OF THE POSSIBLE ISSUES AND CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM.
BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY HARD TO DEPRESS. REQUIRED EXTRA PRESSURE AND INCREASED BRAKING DISTANCE. WAS TOLD BY FORD DEALERSHIP. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO TO CAUSE IT OR PREVENT IT. THEY REPLACED THE BRAKE BOOSTER FOR $900.00
WHEN STEPPING ON THE GAS PEDAL THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT DIE BUT WOULD NOT MOVE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THIS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS ONCE IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC AND ONCE AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO TO CAUSE THE PROBLEM OR PREVENT IT. DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY FOR $524.00
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED AND CAUSED THE BRAKING DISTANCE TO BE EXTENDED. WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LARRY H. MILLER FORD OF DRAPER (11442 S. LONE PEAK PKWY, DRAPER, UT) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.
THE BRAKE BOOSTER DEVELOPED A TEAR CAUSING BY BRAKING SYSTEM TO BECOME DEFECTIVE, BRAKING BECAME VERY DIFFICULT WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHTWAY IN THAT I HAD TO PRESS THE PEDAL VERY HARD TO COME TO A STOP. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED IN FORD EDGE 2010-2013 MODELS, BUT MY VEHICLE MISSED THE DATE ON THE RECALL BY ONLY A COUPLE OF MONTHS.THE REPAIR IS COSTING ALMOST $700 PLUS COST OF CAR RENTAL WHILE IT WAS BEING REPAIRED.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN ALL DOORS ARE SECURELY CLOSED. THE LIGHT RANDOMLY COMES ON WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE PARKED. THIS CAUSES THE DOME LIGHT TO REMAIN ON, WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY.
THE "DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT" STAYS ON EVEN WITH THE DOOR SECURELY CLOSED. I HAD TO SLAM IT A FEW TIMES, WHICH I FEEL IS IMPROPER PROCEDURE, TO DISENGAGE THE LIGHT. UPON SECURING VEHICLE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T DISENGAGE. THIS DRAINS THE BATTERY LIFE, WHERE UPON I NEED TO BUY A NEW BATTERY. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON, WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO SEE. IS THERE OR WILL THERE BE A RECALL FOR THIS VERY IMPORTANT PROBLEM ???
FUEL LEAK PUT GAS AND FIVE MINUTES LATER THE TANK IS HALF EMPTY
I LOST THE BREAK WHILE DRIVING AT 20 MILES , THE BREAK WENT TO THE FLOOR.I CHANGE THE BREAKS AND PADS AND THE BREAKS STILL INCREDIBLE LOW. I CALL FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY ARE NOT HELPFUL AT ALL THIS IS A VERY SIRIUS PROBLEM PLEASE DO SOMETHING
BRAKES BECAME SPONGY 2 1/2 WEEKS AGO. TOOK TO FAMILY MECHANIC. THEY WERE UNABLE TO RECREATE AND STAYED THE BRAKE PADS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION. WENT ON SHORT VACATION AND THE BRAKES CONTINUED TO BE SPONGY BUT NOT EVERY TIME. WHEN WE RETURNED HOME IT BEGAN HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY AND A HISSING SOUND BEGAN WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. THEN YESTERDAY MORNING THE CAR SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION BUT RESTARTED AFTER A FEW MINUTES. TOOK IT INTO MECHANIC AGAIN AND THEY WERE ABLE TO RECREATE BOTH ISSUES. AFTER RESEARCH THEY DISCOVERED A FORD EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE SO I TOWED IT TO NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP. NOW THE GARAGE IS TELLING ME IT WILL COST BETWEEN $800 AND $1000 AND MY VIN IS NOT COVERED. THE INFO ONLINE STATES IT SHOULD BE COVERED. I PAY MY FINAL CAR PAYMENT IN 2 WEEKS AND MY ADDITIONAL WARRANTY THAT I PURCHASED ENDED IN MAY. IT SEEMS THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND SHOULD BE COVERED AND MOST CERTAINLY SHOULD BE RECALLED. IT IS NOT DUE TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. I HAVE OWNED IT BRAND NEW AND AFTER 7 YEARS ONLY HAVE 30K MILES ON IT. THE VEHICLE IS IN GREAT CONDITION OTHERWISE. BRAKING ISSUES ALMOST LED TO AN ACCIDENT THE DAY BEFORE AND IT SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING OR LIGHTS FROM THE VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. WHAT IF WE HAD BEEN ON OUR ROAD TRIP AND GOING 80 MILES AN HOUR? THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE ISSUE WAS RECREATED AT THE FAMILY MECHANIC IN A PARKED POSITION BUT FOR ME IT WAS OPERATIONAL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE REVERSING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE BRAKES LOST POWER, WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED QUIRK FORD OF AUGUSTA AT 207-430-1600 (LOCATED AT 7 WATER ST, HALLOWELL, ME 04347) AND THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 95,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH. THE CONTACT HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH FORCE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DITSCHMAN/FLEMINGTON FORD LINCOLN (215 US-202, FLEMINGTON, NJ 08822, (908) 905-0317) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED, PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER, AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000. *BF *TR
AS I WAS COMING TO A STOPLIGHT IN THE CITY AT ABOUT 25-30 MPH, MY BRAKES ENGAGED FOR ABOUT A QUARTER OF A SECOND, THEN GAVE OUT ALMOST ENTIRELY. I HAD TO PUMP BRAKES AND HIT THE EMERGENCY BRAKES TO STOP FROM HITTING A STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION. THANKFULLY I BRAKE EARLY AND STOPPED SHORT A FEW INCHES. AFTER INSPECTION THE CULPRIT IS THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER.
THERE IS A LEAK/CRACK IN THE FUEL NECK. EVERY TIME I REFUEL THE VEHICLE, IT WILL NOT START RIGHT AWAY. AFTER A MINUTE IT WILL START. THE DEALER RECOMMENDED I SPEND $600 TO REPLACE IT. ALSO, DRIVER WINDOW IS SCRAPING WHEN IT GOES UP AND OUTSIDE DECORATIVE PANEL PAINT IS FADING.
AFTER HITTING A BUMP, POT HOLE, ETC. THE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND IS SLOW TO STOP, CURRENTLY, THE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IS SLOW TO STOP, WHICH FROM WHAT I HAVE READ IS A COMMON PROBLEM,WITH THE HCU AND/OR POWER BREAK BOOSTER BUT NO OFFICIAL RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. ALTHOUGH THIS HAPPENED ONCE OR TWICE IN DECEMBER OF 2018, IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE MONTH OF JUNE 2019 AND NOW IS CURRENTLY NOT IMPROVING.
BRAKE VACUUM BOOSTER HAS FAILED. BRAKE STOPPING EFFORT CHANGES WITH ENGINE RPM. AT LOW ENGINE SPEEDS, THE CAR APPEARS TO HAVE NO BRAKES. NO WARNING LIGHTS ARE GIVEN TO OPERATOR TO KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH BRAKES. FORD HAS A VOLUNTARY SERVICE ACTION (13N02)TO CARS BUILT UNTIL MARCH 2013, BUT PROBLEM STILL EXIST IN CAR BUILT IN MAY
I BOUGHT A USED 2013 FORD EDGE: SPORT TRIM, 3.7L AWD WITH 84,000 MILES ON JUNE 8TH. INSPECTION WAS FINE. I DROVE IT HOME 1400 MILES THE NEXT 2 DAYS, AND NEVER DROVE IT HARD AT ALL. IT RAINED THE WHOLE WAY. DRIVING FELT A BIT ODD AT TIMES, THOUGH I ATTRIBUTED THAT TO MY UNFAMILIARITY WITH THE NEW VEHICLE. UPON ARRIVING HOME I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A MAJOR TRANSMISSION LEAK. UPON MY RE-INSPECTION, IT WAS DRIPPING AT EVERY STOP, SOMETIMES LEAVING 2-5" DIAMETER PUDDLES. I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THAT TRANSMISSION WAS FINE, BUT THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT WAS LEAKING AND THE ENTIRE UNIT NEEDED REPLACEMENT. COST OF REPAIR, $1800. UPON RESEARCHING, THE UNIT WHICH CLAIMS TO HAVE A "LIFETIME FLUID" OF GEAR-OIL HAS A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW IN WHICH THE UNIT IS NOT PROPERLY COOLED, AND THE "LIFETIME FLUID" BREAKS DOWN DUE TO HEAT, CAUSING THE UNIT TO FAIL. THIS SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW COULD HAVE CAUSED MY TRIP THROUGH THE RAIN TO HAVE RESULTED IN A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE THAT WOULD HAVE ENDANGERED MY SAFETY, THE VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCE IN THE RAIN, AND THE LIVES OF OTHERS. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. I AM NOW STUCK UNABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD THE $1800 REPAIR, AND DRIVING THE VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION IS DANGEROUS. THIS PART NEEDS TO BE RECALLED ASAP, AND FORD NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DEFECTIVE PART BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING ON WHEN DOOR IS SHUT TIGHT, AFTER SLAMMING DOOR SHUT A FEW TIMES IT GOES OUT. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL MONTHS.
DRIVER DOOR SWITCH, DOOR AJAR STAYS ON ALL THE TIME, CAR ALWAYS THINKS TH DOOR IS OPEN.
BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. WHEN I PUSH DOWN ON BRAKES IT FEELS VERY SPONGY LIKE THERE'S AIR STUCK IN THERE. MAKES A HISSING SOUND. I STEP ON THE BRAKES AND IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR KEEPS ROLLING. AND I HAVE TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES.
MY MECHANIC HAS INFORMED ME THAT MY MASTER CYLINDERS ARE BAD. THAT THIS PART ON THE FORD EDGE LEAKS FLUID INTO THE POWER BOOSTER WHICH COMPROMISES THE BOOSTER'S DIAPHRAGM AND IS UNDER A CURRENT RECALL WITH FORD. I HAD MY POWER BOOSTER REPLACED LAST OCTOBER, BECAUSE MY BRAKE PEDAL WOULD BECOME STIFF AND DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS. SINCE HAVING THE BOOSTERS REPLACED, I HAVE THE OPPOSITE PROBLEM. THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSES ALMOST TO THE FLOOR BEFORE ENGAGING. BECAUSE THE MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER WORK IN TANDEM, IT MAKES NO SENSE TO REPLACE ONE WITHOUT REPLACING THE OTHER, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT HAS BEEN NOTED THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER IS THE CAUSATION OF THE POWER BOOSTER'S FAILURE. I IMPLORE YOU TO ISSUE A CORRESPONDING RECALL FOR THE MASTER CYLINDER OR AMMEND THE RECALL ON THE POWER BOOSTER TO INCLUDE THIS COMPONENT.
I FOUND SPOTS OF FLUID ON MY GARAGE FLOOR AND IN MY DRIVEWAY THAT WAS LEAKING FROM MY CAR. FORD DEALER INFORMED ME THIS FLUID IS LEAKING FROM TRANSMISSION PTU.
ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS SINCE SEPTEMBER 2018, VEHICLE HAS SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING WHILE TRAVELING ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS AND HEAVY TRAFFIC. GAS PEDAL DID NOT RESPOND WHEN PRESSED. LUCKY TO HAVE AVOIDED SERIOUS ACCIDENTS. FORD DEALER/REPAIR COULD NOT IDENTIFY OR REPEAT PROBLEM, BUT CLEARLY THERE IS A PROBLEM.
SMALL TEAR IN BREAK BOOSTER. FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND COVERED A LOT OF VEHICLES IN THE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02. MY CAR IS NOT COVERED EVEN THOUGH IT WAS MADE AT THE SAME FACTORY DURING THE SAME TIME PERIOD OF THE ONES THAT WERE COVERED. IT WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN IT BROKE AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT. FORD HAS REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING EVEN THOUGH THIS IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE. I FOUND A LARGE AMOUNT OF DRIVERS THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM I DO WITH THEIR 2013 FORD EDGES THAT WERE NOT COVERED BY FORD.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND FELT EXTREMELY STIFF. IN ORDER TO AVOID A COLLISION, THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO PARK. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP, IT WAS SHIFTED INTO PARK OR THE IGNITION WAS TURNED OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS WHO TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JOE COOPER FORD YUKON (1780 GARTH BROOKS BLVD, YUKON, OK 73099, (405) 354-1111), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL NHTSA. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE CAUSING DIFFICULTY BRINGING VEHICLE TO FULL STOP. VERY HARD PEDAL. I ALMOST WENT INTO CROSS TRAFFIC, WHICH WAS GOING AT 55MPH. I NEEDED TWO FEET TO BRING CAR TO FULL STOP.
THERE IS A FORD CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02 2013-2013 FORD EDGE, BUT MY 2013 FORD EDGE IS NOT COVERED. NOW I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND FORD WILL NOT HELP ME. I HAVE 125,000 MILES, SO SHOULD BE COVERED, BUT FORD SAYS NO. THE BRAKE BOOSTER ON MY EDGE IS THE SAME ONE COVERED BY THE PROGRAM, AND IT'S NOW BAD, AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I HOPE YOU HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM. WHEN DRIVING IT HAS NO BRAKES, OR VERY LITTLE BRAKES.
BRAKE BOOSTER. I HAVE NEW BRAKES ON MY CAR BUT STILL FEEL LIKE I CAN'T STOP RIGHT AWAY LIKE I SHOULD BE ABLE TO. MY HUSBAND HAS A FORD EDGE 2019 FOR WORK. HIS CAR DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. EITHER DOES MY FRIEND WHO HAS A FORD EDGE 2016. I CAN BE IN A PARKING LOT AND BACKUP AND FEEL LIKE I'M GOING TO HIT ONTO THE CAR BEHIND ME CAUSE I DON'T STOP RIGHT AWAY.
BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING EFFECTIVELY - SPONGY FEELING AND BRAKE FLUID WAS LOW. TOOK INTO THE SHOP AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A POWER BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE. DID SOME RESEARCH AND THIS PART IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THE MODEL AND YEAR OF MY CAR BUT NOT FOR MY VIN. TECHNICIAN WAS RELUCTANT TO LET ME DRIVE OFF THE LOT AS THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. NOT SURE WHY FORD HAS ONLY CHOSEN TO REPLACE SOME OF THESE PARTS THAT IT KNOWS ARE FAULTY. MILEAGE IS 72K.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING WHEN DOOR IS NOT AJAR. PROBLEM STARTED APPROX MID MAY 2019, MILEAGE UNDER 60,000 MILES.
"TAKATA RECALL" THE WARNING LIGHT THAT L PASSENGER DOOR IS AJAR STAYS ON -- EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS APPARENTLY DRAINED THE BATTERY; HAD TO JUMP THE CAR TO GET IT STARTED. THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. THIS HAS ESPECIALLY BEEN A PROBLEM FOR THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS. THIS OCCURS WHETHER THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION.
2013 EDGE WITH 53,000 MILES - 3-4 MONTHS OUT OF THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. EXPERIENCED INTERMITTENT NOISES WHEN VEHICLE IS COLD (I.E. GRINDING NOISE, ENGINE RUNNING IRREGULAR, AND FAINT HUMMING AT ENGINE/TRANSMISSION). THIS ONLY HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 3-4 TIMES TOTAL WITH MANY DAYS IN BETWEEN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING. VERY SLIGHT AT FIRST AND PROGRESSED AND BECAME LITTLE MORE PRONOUNCED. WHEN I WOULD STOP, THE ENGINE WAS CALM AND STILL. I WOULD WONDER IF IT WAS EVEN STILL RUNNING. IT TOOK THE DEALERSHIP OVER A WEEK TO DIAGNOSE BECAUSE IT WAS INTERMITTENT AND THE MECHANIC HAD TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT BEFORE IT HAPPENED AGAIN. FINALLY, FORMALLY DIAGNOSED 5/22/19 AS A FAILED PTU. NO FLUID LEAKS AND ALL SEALS INTACT. VERY LITTLE PRICE BREAK ON LABOR AND/OR PARTS. THE DEALERSHIP REFERS YOU TO CORPORATE FORD FOR ANY PART AND/OR WARRANTY COMPLAINTS. SINCE THERE WAS NO CORE CHARGE, I DID REQUEST THAT THE FAILED PART BE RETURNED AFTER REPLACEMENT. WITHOUT INTERVENTION TO FORCE FORD TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS PROBLEM, THIS PART WILL CONTINUE TO BE PRODUCED AND INSTALLED ON VEHICLES. LASTLY, WITH THE FOREKNOWLEDGE MENTIONED ABOVE ABOUT THIS VEHICLES' PTU ISSUES. I WOULD CERTAINLY HESITATE TO BUY ANY FORD EDGE OR FLEX BECAUSE OF THIS SUBSTANDARD PART THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR CONSUMER SAFETY REASONS. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE FIX IS ONLY TO PUT THIS SAME POORLY DESIGNED REPLACEMENT PART BACK ON THE VEHICLE - ONLY TO WAIT FOR IT TO POSSIBLY FAIL AGAIN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED, BUT WAS STIFF AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS ON AN INCLINE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED AND THE VEHICLE ROLLED. THERE WAS ALSO AN ABNORMAL HISSING NOISE EMERGING FROM THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED BOB TOMES FORD (950 S CENTRAL EXPY, MCKINNEY, TX 75071, (888) 485-3971) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: CAS 21714536. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM NUMBER: 13N02. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.
CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO VEHICLE SERVICE STATION AND CODE P0299 CAME UP. THAT IS THE CODE TO REPLACE TURBOCHARGER ASSEMBLY. THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD AND UNDER 100K MILES. THIS ISSUE SHOULD NOT BE COMING UP ON A VEHICLE THAT IS NOT THAT OLD
DRIVING 45 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE LOST POWER AND A WRENCH ICON LIGHT CAME ON. ENGINE WAS IDLING ROUGHLY AND ACCELERATOR WOULD NOT WORK. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER AND SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD FIND NO TROUBLE CODES AND COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE NEXT DAY THIS SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN AT AROUND 45 MPH ON A HIGHWAY.
VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR BRAKE REPAIR NUMEROUS TIMES. LAST WAS MASTER CYLINDER. MOST RECENT IS BRAKES GOING TO FLOOR WITH AIR SOUND COMING FROM INSIDE. LOCAL DEALER IS ALWAYS BOOKED 2 WEEKS. I DO HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY & HAVE SPENT A FORTUNE ON DEDUCTIBLES FOR BRAKE ISSUES. I TRAVEL FOR WORK IN ALL TYPES OF MOUNTAINOUS CONDITIONS. AFTER READING THERE ARE 144 COMPLAINTS ON 2013 MODEL THIS IS DEFINITELY A DANGEROUS ISSUE. NEEDS RECALL.
2013 FORD EDGE BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUE. MILEAGE 119,000. STARTING HEARING A HISSING SOUND COMING FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE BRAKES BECAME VERY RESISTANT. AFTER HAVING IT LOOKED AT, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS BAD AND THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR VEHICLE. AFTER CHECKING FURTHER I DISCOVERED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR MY MAKE/MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE BUT THAT ONLY CARS MADE AT CERTAIN ASSEMBLY PLANTS WERE INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL AND MY CAR WASN'T ONE OF THEM. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER CARE WHO CREATED A CASE # FOR ME AND SET ME UP WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER AT MY DEALERSHIP TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP DETERMINED THE ISSUE WITH MY CAR WAS IDENTICAL AS THOSE THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY RECALLED AND SUBMITTED THIS CLAIM BACK TO FORD CUSTOMER CARE AS BEING A VALID ISSUE TO BE REPAIRED. FORD CUSTOMER CARE SENT A RESPONSE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP STATING THAT SINCE MY VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OFFER ANY HELP THROUGH FORD LOYALTY OR FORD ASSISTANCE ON MY REPAIRS. THE DEALERSHIP HAD TOLD ME THAT FORD HAD IN THE PAST AGREED TO PAY SOME THAT WEREN'T ON THE RECALL LIST BUT DENIED OTHERS AND THEY WEREN'T SURE WHY. THAT IS REALLY UPSETTING....WHO DETERMINES WHO THEY SAY YES TO AND WHO THEY TURN AWAY? WHY EVEN ASSIGN A CASE # AND SET YOU UP WITH A DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR IF THEY ARE KNOWINGLY GOING TO DENY YOU? MY FAMILY IS A HUGE FORD FAMILY. THAT IS THE ONLY TYPE OF VEHICLE WE EVER PURCHASE. WE'VE SHOWN DECADES OF CUSTOMER LOYALTY TO THEIR BRAND AND MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN LOOKING TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE AS WE SPEAK...BUT THIS ISSUE AND BEING DENIED ASSISTANCE FOR AN ISSUE THAT IS WELL DOCUMENTED ALL OVER THE COUNTRY IS GIVING US NO CHOICE BUT TO LOOK OUTSIDE OF FORD AT OTHER MANUFACTURERS FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER. THIS HAS DISAPPOINTED OUR ENTIRE FAMILY AND COST FORD A LOT MORE THAN THE COST OF THIS REPAIR!!!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GEARS FAILED TO PROPERLY SHIFT AND THERE WAS A REDUCTION OF SPEED. THE CONTACT HAD TO MANEUVER THE GEAR SHIFTER, SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON TO GET THE GEAR TO SHIFT INTO PARK. THE DEALER (BELK FORD IN BALTIMORE MD 410-766-3600) HAD BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE SEVERAL TIMES. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE TORQUE SHAFT BOOS FAILED AND THAT THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS A QUART LOW AND BLACK. THE DEALER LATER INDICATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V393000 (POWER TRAIN) WHICH WAS FOR THE 2014 MODEL. THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED 10 POWER TRAIN TSB BUT WITH NO RECALL CAMPAIGN, NO WARRANTY COVERAGE THEY EXPECTED THE OWNER TO HAVE THE DEALER REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,250.
THE "SERVICE ADVANCE TRACK" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON DISPLAY. FORD DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS MODULE HAD TO BE REPLACED AND REPROGRAMMED. THEY SAID THE VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE UNTIL SERVICED. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE REPLACEMENT PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND WOULD TAKE MONTHS TO ARRIVE. THEY SAID SEVERAL OTHER VEHICLES (IN THAT AND IN OTHER DEALERSHIPS) WERE AWAITING FOR THE SAME ABS MODULE REPLACEMENT.
DEFECTIVE BRAKE BOOSTER RECALL. BRAKE PETAL STARTED GOING TO THE FLOOR MAKING IT HARD TO STOP
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A CONSTANT FAILURE WITH THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SLIPPING OUT OF DRIVE. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE FAILURE MAY PROGRESS TO THE OTHER GEARS RENDERING THE RISK OF A POTENTIAL CATASTROPHIC CRASH. THE PROBLEM WAS GETTING WORSE TO THE POINT THAT THERE WAS A REDUCTION IN SPEED WHEN NEEDING TO PICK UP SPEED DUE TO A DELAY IN THE GEARS CHANGING OVER. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THREE DIFFERENT REPAIR FACILITY INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED MECHANICS FOR A TECHNICAL DIAGNOSIS AS TRANSMISSION SPECIALISTS. THE DEALER BORGMAN FORD (3150 28TH ST SW, GRANDVILLE, MI 49418, (616) 534-7651) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V393000 (POWER TRAIN) FOR THIS YEAR MODEL VEHICLE. THE DEALER WAS NOT AUTHORIZED TO DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE YET UNTIL FURTHER GUIDANCE WAS PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
THE BRAKES STARTED TO BECOME HARDER TO APPLY. AN AIR HISSING SOUND CAME FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CAR WOULD INTERMITTENTLY BE IMPOSSIBLE TO BRAKE, BUT ALL OTHER BRAKE PARTS ARE INTACT (ACCORDING TO MECHANIC). THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION WHEN THE BRAKING PROBLEM WAS NOTICED. THE AIR HISSING SOUND CAN BE HEARD WHEN IN PARK AND THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED AS WELL. THERE IS AN ACKNOWLEDGED PROBLEM WITH THIS PART IN A POSTED EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT THE TERMS OF THAT DO NOT APPLY TO MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE. I AM SHOWING THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS AND I WAS ALMOST IN 2 DIFFERENT WRECKS WHEN MY CAR WOULDN'T STOP - AND IT WILL COST $1000 TO FIX! IT SEEMS IF THE PROBLEM IS ACKNOWLEDGED IN OTHERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE, IT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IN ALL OF THE SAME. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD.
DRIVING ON A SECONDARY ROAD AND NEEDED TO STOP. PUSHED ON BRAKE PEDAL AND PEDAL FELT SOFT AND TRAVELED NEARLY TO THE FLOOR. FELT AS IF A FLUID LINE HAD BURST ALLOWING FLUID TO SPRAY OUT. NO FLUID WAS LOST OR VISIBLE LEAKS. AFTER VEHICLE HAD SET FOR ABOUT AN HOUR, BRAKE PEDAL CAME BACK TO NORMAL. THIS IS SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. FIRST TIME WAS IN JANUARY, SECOND TIME MAY. LOCAL FORD DEALER CAN NOT FIND ANY FAULTS OR PROBLEM.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED CAUSING SERIOUS DECLINE IN BRAKING DISTANCE TO A POINT WHERE I FELT THE CAR WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I ALMOST GOT IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A PART THAT SHOULD NEVER FAIL. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND ALMOST REAR ENDED SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THE BRAKING DISTANCE WAS INCREASED BY A LARGE AMOUNT.
DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. DOOR AJAR LIGHT ALWAYS GOES OFF EVEN AFTER SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT. I HAVE HAD THIS FIXED BY A DEALERSHIP TWICE AND IT STILL DOESNT WORK AND THE DOORS WONT LOCK AND THE BATTERY DIES. THIS HAPPENS WHEN SHUTTING THE DOOR WHEN STATIINARY.
BRAKE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. NO RHYME OR REASON EXCEPT EACH OF THE HANDFUL OF TIMES IT'S DONE THIS (SEVERAL RANDOM WEEKS APART)I SEEM TO ALWAYS BE LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE GOING A LOW SPEED (LESS THAN 40 MPH) VERY SCARY FEELING WHEN ONE DOESN'T STOP AS EXPECTED. EACH TIME HAD OCCURRED WHEN ATTEMPTING A COMPLETE STOP ON CITY STREET.
WHILE DRIVING MY FORD EDGE I APPLIED MY BRAKES. THE BRAKES BECAME VERY NON RESPONSIVE.. I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE THEY RESPONDED. I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND IT WAS OKAY. I THAN BEGAN READING AND DISCOVERED FORD HAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE DIAPHRAGM IN THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN FOR EVERYONE ON THE ROAD BECAUSE IT HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING.WE JUST COMPLETED A 1000 MILE TRIP AND NOW FACE A HUGE REPAIR BILL FOR A KNOWN DEFECTIVE FORD PART PLUS LOSS OF VEHICLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN IT WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKES WERE ENGAGED TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP. IN AUGUST OF 2018, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MARSHAL MIZE FORD (5348 TN-153, HIXSON, TN 37343, (423) 875-2023) WHERE THEY REPAIRED THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE SAME DEALER FOR THE RECENT FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL BRAKING UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY WAITING TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT SPONGY AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL, INTERMITTENT NOISE WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THERE WAS NO WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE NUMBER: 13N02 (BRAKE BOOSTER ' 2010-2013 FORD EDGE & LINCOLN MKX). VETERANS FORD (3724 VETERANS MEMORIAL BLVD, METAIRIE, LA 70002, (504) 887-8410) INDICATED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS AT THE DEALER AWAITING FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
THE DRIVER DOOR SHOWS DOOR IS AJAR EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS CLOSED CAUSING DOORS NOT TO LOCK AND KEEPS INTERIOR LIGHTS ON WHEN CAR IS DRIVING MODE WHICH IS A HAZARD AT NIGHT AND DRAINS BATTERY WHEN CAR IS OFF.
WHILE DRIVING MY FORD EDGE, I BEGAN HEARING A HISSING NOISE INSIDE THE CABIN AS I APPLIED MY BRAKES. THE BRAKES BECAME VERY NON RESPONSIVE AND I NEARLY SLAMMED INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WHEN TRYING TO STOP. I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE THEY RESPONDED. I FIRST CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND IT WAS OKAY. I THAN BEGAN READING AND DISCOVERED FORD HAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE DIAPHRAGM IN THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN FOR EVERYONE ON THE ROAD BECAUSE IT HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING.
DOOR LATCH SENSORS, DOOR AJAR WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED AND FULLY LATCHED. DOOR WILL NOT LOCK WHEN YOU START DRIVING AND WHEN YOU DO START DRIVING WHILE THE DOOR AJAR IS ON IT KEEPS TELLING YOU TO SHIFT INTO PARK. YOU ALSO CAN'T LOCK THE CAR WITH KEYLESS ENTRY BECAUSE IT SAYS DOOR AJAR.
WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING AND IN PARK THERE IS AN ERROR ON THE DASH SERVICE ADVANCETRAC. ALSO ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE ENGINE INCREASES RPM AND THE CAR HAS ACTUALLY ROLLED SEVERAL FEET WHEN THIS HAPPENS.
I HAVE ATTACHED A .PDF FILE CONTAINING A LETTER WRITTEN TO FORD MOTOR COMPANY REFERENCING THIS COMPLAINT.
THE BRAKES BECOME VERY SOFT AND GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THEY WILL WORK BUT IN A VERY DELAYED FASHION. I'VE BEEN TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS AND ONE SAID RUST/DUST IN THEM AND THE OTHER ONE SAID NOTHING IS WRONG AFTER I EVEN PURCHASED NEW BRAKES. 3 FORD EDGE VEHICLES IN MY FAMILY AND ALL THREE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME U KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE
THE ELECTRIC COMPONENTS IN MY FORD EDGE IS A MAJOR SAFETY HARAZD WITH LOCKING THE SUV REAR DOORS BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT OF MY SUV.VERY VERY CONCERN WITH THE SAFETY ASPECTS AS I AM A PARENT OF 2 KIDS AGE BETWEEN 10-12 YEARS OLD ...I NEED REASSURANCE THAT FORD WILL RECALL MY 2013 FORD EDGE SE SUV BEFORE THERE'S A VERY VERY SERIOUS SITUATION .PLEASE HELP ME TO HELP MY FAMILY SAFETY...THANK YOU
WHILE BRAKING THE DRIVER'S SEAT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH.
DOOR AJAR INDICATED WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON, BATTERY DIES, DOOR WILL NOT LOCK PROPERLY.
DRIVING DOWN THE 78 FREEWAY IN MY 2013 FORD EDGE SPORT WHEN MY GLASS PANORAMIC ROOFTOP VIOLENTLY EXPLODED SOUNDING LIKE A GUN GOING OFF IN MY CAR. LUCKILY WHEN I SWERVED IN FRIGHT NO ONE WAS NEXT TO ME SO NO ONE GOT HURT INCLUDING ME BUT IT WAS VERY SCARY.THIS HAPPENED ON MARCH 21 2019. IT IS A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AND NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE SAME DAY AND THEY WANTED ME TO GO THROUGH INSURANCE TO HAVE FIX. I AM SCARED IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.
THE DRIVERS DOOR DOOR AJAR SENSOR DOES NOT REGISTER WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS LEADS TO THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINING ON DURING TRAVEL, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAINING ON DURING TRAVEL, DOORS WILL FAIL TO LOCK DURING TRAVEL, AND AN AUDIBLE ALARM EACH TIME YOU STOP THE VEHICLE FOR A STOP SIGN OR STOP LIGHT.
VEHICLE IMPROPERLY SIGNALS DRIVER'S REAR DOOR AJAR. SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH A SENSOR IN THE DOOR LATCH.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS OR WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THERE WAS A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL DETECTED INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND THE IGNITION FUEL WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS COMPLETELY CLOSED. FURTHERMORE, THE PASSENGER DOOR DID NOT LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JORDAN FORD (13010 I-35, LIVE OAK, TX 78233, (210) 653-3673) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL LINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BEFORE IT CAUGHT FIRE. ALSO, THE HALF SHAFT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V002000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000.
I HAVE LOST MY BRAKES WHERE THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR TWICE WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY
2 PROBLEMS. ONE THE DOOR SAYS IT'S NOT CLOSED SO IT WON'T LOCK. THERE FORE IT WON'T LOCK ANY OF THE DOORS. MEANING I CAN'T KEEP PEOPLE FROM GETTING INTO MY CAR. IN MY CITY THAT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS TRYING TO JUMP IN AND TAKE PEOPLE'S CARS. WE FIXED IT ONCE UNDER WARRANTY BUT IT WENT OUT AGAIN AFTER WARRANTY. SECOND ISSUE IS ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. IT WILL BE THE DOOR THE THE DOOR WILL SAY IT'S CLOSED NEXT THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON BUT NOTHING IS WRONG. WE'VE HAD IT FIXED AND LOOKED AT.
FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON, LEAVING INTERIOR LIGHTS ON RUNNING BATTERY DOWN. WHEN I AM DRIVING INTERIOR LIGHTS ON IT'S REALLY HARD TO DRIVE IN THE EVENING/NIGHT TIME. MY MECHANIC CHECKED THE DOOR AND SAID IT'S ELECTRICAL ISSUE NOT MECHANICAL. FIRST IT HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DRIVING THE LIGHTS TURNED ON AND ON THE DASHBOARD WAS SIGH PASSENGER DOOR AJAR. ALL THE DOORS WERE DEFINITELY CLOSED. I DIDN'T GET RECALL WHEN SHOULD'VE CAUSE THIS'S SAFETY HAZARD DRIVING WITH INTERIOR LIGHT ON IN NIGHT TIME.
ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. HAD IT HOOKED UP TO THE MACHINE AND IT IS SAYING GAS CAP. IT DOES NOT HAVE A GAS CAP
THE CAR DOES NOT DETECT THE PARKING SHIFT
THE DASH AREA WHERE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS LOCATED HAS BEGUN TO CRACK. THE ENTIRE RIGHT SIDE OF THE AIR BAG SQUARE HAS SEPARATED. ALSO, WHEN STOPPING THE VEHICLE AT A STOP LIGHT, IN TRAFFIC, ETC., THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE, ESPECIALLY IF THE FUEL TANK IS LESS THAN FULL.
FUEL IS LEAKING WHEN PUMPING GAS AND SMELL OF GAS IN THE CABIN?
FRONT DRIVER DOOR AJAR SIGNAL. WHEN STARTING THE CAR, THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SIGNAL APPEARS WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. ENGINE ON SIGNAL APPEARS, INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON, SHIFT INTO PARK SIGNAL APPEARS. DOOR LOCKS DO NOT ENGAGE WHILE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. SAFETY IS COMPROMISED WITH UNLOCKED DOORS WHILE DRIVING. CLEANING OF CONTACTS DOES NOT ALLEVIATE PROBLEM. FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD RECALL OR REPAIR VEHICLES REGARDLESS OF WARRANTY.
PTU WENT OUT WITH LESS THAN 59,000 MILES. VEHICLE STARTED MAKING HUMMING NOISE UPON ACCELERATION, THEN SMELL OF BURNING OIL/FLUID AT STOP LIGHTS. AFTER ABOUT 2 WEEKS IT STARTING MAKING A REALLY LOUD CLANKING NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE THE WHOLE POWERTRAIN WAS GOING TO FALL OUT. ALSO, COULD FEEL IT IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN IT GOT TO THAT POINT.
DRIVER SEAT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH WHEN ACCELERATING AND BRAKING. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS PERIODICALLY FOR THE PAST YEAR. SEEMS TO BE A REGULAR COMPLAINT FOR THIS VEHICLE BUT THERE IS NOT A RECALL.
ABS SYSTEM FAILURE - WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN FULL SPEED MOTION AND AFTER APPLYING BRAKES FIRMLY FOR AN ABRUPT STOP, THE BRAKING SYSTEM FAILS TO DISTRIBUTE POWER EQUALLY TO EACH BRAKE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO FAIL IN TWO SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE FEATURES. FIRST APPLYING FULL BRAKING CAPACITY TO SLOW THE VEHICLE EFFECTIVELY AND EFFICIENTLY. SECOND, THE VEHICLE PULLS TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER IN A RANDOM FASHION. THIS PERFORMANCE MAKES THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS THE POWER BRAKING CAPACITY IS LESS THAN 30 PERCENT. THIS FAILURE WAS REPORTED TO THE AUTHORIZED FORD DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE FAILURE OR CHOSE NOT TO. THIS ISSUE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A WARRANTY ISSUE BUT WAS NOT SINCE THE DEALER DID NOT IDENTIFY DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD, I WAS FORCED TO PAY THE FULL REPAIR COST MONTHS LATER.
PTO UNIT HAS BEGUN LEAKING OIL. THIS IS A WELL-DOCUMENTED ISSUE THAT FORD REFUSES TO ADDRESS. THE UNIT HAS NOT FAILED AS OF YET, BUT ALL RESEARCH SHOWS THAT I WILL BE REQUIRED TO HAVE CRITICAL REPAIRS PERFORMED OR I MIGHT FACE A SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS ISSUE IS NOT REPAIRABLE AS THE UNIT IS A MAINTENANCE FREE PART AND HAS NO ABILITY TO BE MAINTAINED BY NORMAL REPAIR PROCESSES.
VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN SHORT DISTANCE IN TOWN (LESS THAN 10 MILES IN 10-20 DEGREE WEATHER), NO WARNING LIGHTS NO OVERHEATING OR SMOKE. 10 MINUTES AFTER CAR WAS PARKED AND SHUT OFF, CAR IGNITED IN DRIVEWAY IN ENGINE. OIL HAD NEVER EVEN BEEN CHANGED SINCE BOUGHT USED FROM DEALER A FEW MONTHS PRIOR; HAD PUT ON LESS THAN 2000 MILES SINCE PURCHASED. TOTAL LOSS.
DOOR LATCH DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY. "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON AND YOU CANT LOCK THE DOORS. "SHIFT TO PARK" LIGHT AND BELL COMES ON AT ANY STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN AS WELL AS "ENGINE ON" LIGHT AND BELL. JUST A FEW OF THE BELLS AND LIGHTS THAT COME ON.
BRAKES STARTED BECOMING 'LOOSE', WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR WITH HISSING SOUND. VEHICLE WOULD STILL STOP OK. MECHANIC CHECKED BECAUSE BRAKE PADS, ROTORS, ETC WERE ALL FINE. HE SAID IT WAS THE PRESSURE AND HE BELIEVED THERE TO BE A RECALL OR EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE ISSUE SO HE DID NOT WANT TO DO. THE BRAKES THEN STARTED TO BECOME LOCKED, IT WOULDN'T GO DOWN AT ALL AND STOPPING WAS BECOMING AN ISSUE. UNLESS YOU PUMPED SLOWLY AND THEN IT DID THE HISS AND ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I CALLED FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOOK VIN AND SAID OUR VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED. I STARTED DOING RESEARCH AND LEARNED THAT MANY FOLKS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND ARE BEING TOLD THE SAME THING...NOT INCLUDED. MANY. SEEMS TO ME COMMON SENSE WOULD SAY THAT MAYBE THE ISSUE IS BIGGER THAN WE FIRST REALIZED. HOW MANY WILL BE INJURED OR KILLED ? AND OH YES HOW MANY LIKE US WILL HAVE TO SPEND HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON SOMETHING FORD SHOULD TAKE CARE OF. DO THE RIGHT THING AND MAKE FORD FIX THEM ALL. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND THEN DROVE TO DON VANCE FORD (14897 MO-38, MARSHFIELD, MO 65706). THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STARTED TO LEAK OIL EVER SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED IN JUNE OF 2017. THE OIL LEAK HAS WORSENED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 154,802.
MY DAUGHTER LEFT FOR WORK AT 6 IN THE MORNING, IT WAS MINUS 25/30 WITH THE WIND CHILL. SHE WENT TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ON TO A MAIN STATE TRUCK ROUTE AND THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE AND SHUTTER AND LOST ALL POWER. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON TOO. AFTER THE CAR QUIT COMPLETELY IT THEN WAS RESTARTED. IT CONTINUED TO ACT UP. A FRIEND CHECKED IT AND HIS COMPUTER WAS SHOWING CODES FOR THE THROTTLE BODY AND SENSORS. IT IS NOW AT THE DEALERSHIP. I CALLED FORD AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NO RECALL OR EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD NOTE MY COMPLAINT AND IF IT IS EVER RECALLED OR OK'D FOR AND EXTENDED WARRANTY THEN THEY WOULD LET US KNOW AND SHE COULD BE REIMBURSED. WE LIVE OFF 2 STATE TRUCK ROUTES THAT ARE HEAVILY TRAVELED, BUT AS SHE IS A YOUNG FEMALE AT DARK WITH A VEHICLE THAT IS DARK AND THE ROAD IS ICY AND ITS COLD ENOUGH THAT SCHOOLS AND PLACES HAVE SHUT DOWN AND PEOPLE HAVE DIED FROM EXPOSURE IN THIS , I WILL NOT LOSE A CHILD BECAUSE FORD IS TO LAZY TO PULL THEIR HEAD OUTTA THEIR KEISTER AND START THINKING OLD SCHOOL AGAIN AND CONSIDER THEIR CUSTOMERS. FIX THE ISSUE! DON'T SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG BECAUSE ITS EASIER THAN FACING YOUR "NEW STYLE" VEHICLES HAVE ISSUES. I HAVE NO USE FOR FORD. MY EXPEDITION, MY AUNTS EXPEDITION AND HER DAUGHTERS ESCAPE ALL DID THIS EXACT SAME THING. AT THIS MOMENT WE ARE WAITING TO HEAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP AS TO WHAT IS GOING ON. IF THIS SITE ALLOWS ME TO UPDATE I WILL. SHE WAS GOING APPROXIMATLY 30 MPH AND AS SHE PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDDLE IT SLOWLY DIED.
REAR LEFT DOOR AJAR LIGHT MALFUNCTIONING. STAYS ON. HAPPENS WHEN CAR IS ON.
WHEN SHIFTING IN PARK THE CAR DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S IN PARK IN ORDER TO SHUT THE CAR OFF . AFTER TRYING TO TURN CAR OFF THE SHIFT TO PARK LIGHT STAYS ON. I HAVE TO WIGGLE THE GEARSHIFT TO LET IT RECOGNIZE IT IN PARK OR RESTART THE CAR AND MOVE GEARSHIFT BACK IN TO PARK. WIGGLE THE GEAR SHIFT TO LET IT RECOGNIZE IT'S IN PARK OR RESTART THE CAR AND MOVE GEARSHIFT BACK INTO PARK.
VEHICLE WITH 84K MILES NOTICED LEAKING OIL/LUBRICANT. DEALER DISCOVERED FAILING POWER TAKEOFF TRANSFER ASSEMBLY. DEALER ALSO INFORMED US THAT WHEN THE LUBRICANT IS LOST TO A CERTAIN POINT THE UNIT WILL FAIL CATASTROPHICALLY AND THE POWER TRAIN WILL SEIZE CAUSING ALL FOUR WHEELS TO LOCK UP. THIS CONSTITUTES A MAJOR ON ROAD SAFETY ISSUE. FURTHERMORE, WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED AND HAVE DISCOVERED IN ONLINE MEDIA THAT THIS ISSUE BEEN REPORTED WITH CONSIDERABLE FREQUENCY. YET, NO ACTION IS BEING TAKEN ON THE PART OF FORD MOTOR COMPANY. FORTUNATELY, IN THIS CASE IT WAS DISCOVERED BEFORE CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OCCURRED. THANK YOU.
ANTI-LOCK ELECTRONIC CONTROL AND MODULE.A MONTH AFTER FORD CHANGE MY BRAKES BOOSTER, THE SAME PROBLEM STARTED AGAIN, NOW THEY SAID IS THE ANTI-LOCK EECTRONIC CONTROL AND MODULE. BEEN WAITING FOR 1 MONTH FOR A PART THAT APPARENTLY BREAKS MORE THAN USUAL AND DEALER TELLS ME THAT THEY HAVE AROUND 5 MORE CARS WAITING FOR THE SAME PART THAT IS NOT IN STOCK ANYWHERE. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, FORD IS MAKING CHANGES TO THE MODULE AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE .AGAIN.
TAKATA RECALL THIS IS THE SECOND TIME MY 2013 FORD EDGE LIMITED HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM, TWO YEARS AGO WE HAD TO SPEND $650 ON GETTING OUR DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH NOW OUR PASSENGER DOOR LATCH IS DOING THE SAME THING WHEN WE ARE DRIVING THE DOOR WILL JUST FLY OPEN WITH NO TYPE OF WARNING. SOMETIMES BEFORE WE START DRIVING IT WILL SAY DRIVER DOOR OPEN. IVE READ MULTIPLE REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING AND FORD IS YET TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. MY WIFE COULD FALL OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING OR VISE VERSA. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE WINDS UP DEAD AND FORD HAS A LAWSUIT ON THERE HAND.
THE POWER TAKE OFF UNIT HAD TO BE REPLACED. UNIT WAS LEAKING OIL. NOTICED ISSUE AFTER CAR WAS STATIONARY
AS I WAS DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION DISENGAGED AND WOULD NOT GO BACK INTO GEAR. AFTER TOWING TO THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE HALF SHAFT/CV AXLE WAS MALFUNCTIONING. THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE WITH 2012-14 FORD EDGE BUT BECAUSE MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRS.
BRAKE BOOSTER FOR THIS VEHICLE NEEDED REPAIR BASED ON SYMPTOMS MATCHING FSP 13N02, AND THE REPAIR WAS ALSO AN EXACT MATCH. EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE IS PROVIDED BY FORD FOR FSP 13N02 BASED ON A DATE RANGE, BUT FORD REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE CONDITION APPLIED TO THIS VEHICLE AND WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR. I HAD THIS VEHICLE REPAIRED AT ANOTHER SHOP (NOT FORD), AND THIS SHOP SAID IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED.
BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR DURING SUDDEN STOP SITUATIONS AND DOES NOT GO BACK TO NORMAL. WILL SELF CORRECT AFTER VEHICLE SITS FOR A FEW HOURS. AFTER MUTIPLE OCCURRENCES AND ATTEMPTED REPAIRS TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THIS HELPED THE FORD DEALER DETERMINE THE DEFECTIVE PARTS. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER SINCE 11/9/18 AND THERE ARE STILL NO FORD FACTORY PARTS AVAILABLE. I WAS NUMBER 208 OUT OF 228 ON THE BACK ORDER LIST. AN AFTERMARKET PARTS WAS INSTALLED WITH OUT MY KNOWLEDGE OR AUTHORIZATION AND FORD WILL NOT PROVIDE ANY WARRANTY FOR THIS PART. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO.
ON WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 2019, MY 2013 FORD EDGE REPORTED AN "OVERHEATED COOLANT" MESSAGE AND WITHIN 2 SECONDS THE ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED, THE CAR IMMEDIATELY LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND BEGAN DECELERATING WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH ON A BUSY ROAD DURING NIGHT TIME RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. THIS ENDANGERED MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHER MOTORISTS THAT HAD TO QUICKLY AVOID HITTING MY CAR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO APPLE FORD DEALERSHIP IN COLUMBIA MD AND THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED ME THE INTERNAL WATER PUMP HAD FAILED THAT DIRECTLY IMPACTED THE CAR PERFORMANCE ISSUES AND THE GRINDING NOISE. TO FIX THE WATER PUMP, HE STATED IT WOULD TAKE 17 LABOR HOURS TO REPAIR IT DUE TO HOW FORD DESIGNED THE WATER PUMP BEHIND THE ENGINE. ALSO, THIS REPAIR IS CAUSING ENGINE PROBLEMS. BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT THIS FLAWED DESIGNED IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND FORD SHOULD RECALL THE FORD EDGE TO FIX THIS WATER PUMP PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIES.
WHEN PRESSING ON THE BREAK PEDAL, HISSING AND SQUEALING NOISE OCCURS. SOMETIMES WHEN PRESSING ON BREAK PEDAL, HARD STOP OCCURS RATHER THAN GRADUAL SLOWING. HISSING AND SQUEALING OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS BOTH STOPPED AND MOVING. HARD STOP OCCURS WHEN COASTING/BREAKING SLOWLY, HISS, THEN A JERK/HARD STOP OCCURS SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENS ON CITY STREET AND HIGHWAY. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS.
ENGINE LIGHT ON, DIAGNOSTIC TEST SHOWS GAS VAPOR ESCAPING (LEAK) CODE P0456 WHILE DRIVING
GETTING IN MY VEHICLE ONE DAY NOTICED A BUMP ON THE SIDE OF THE TIRE AND DETERMINED IT WAS PROBABLY THE BELT OR BELTS ON THE INSIDE OF TIRE PROBABLY FAILED. WHEN I WAS LOOKING ONLINE NOTICED THERE WERE RECALLS FOR MANY TIRES IN THE KOMHO TIRE COMPANY PARTICULARLY THE SOLUS LINE IN THAT SPECIFIC YEAR. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION I AM TOLD,
NO SET TIME THE BRAKES FAILS. GOES TO THE FLOOR INSTEAD OF STOPPING AND IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT RATE OF SPEED YOU'RE TRAVELING. EVEN AFTER THINKING FORD FIXED IT I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE BRAKES FAILED. FORD FIXED IT BY DOING A FLUSH, COST CHARGED ME A LOT OF MONEY FOR NOTHING OR THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING.
STATIONARY 2013 FORD EDGE DRIVERS DOOR LATCH FREEZES AND WILL NOT UNLOCK. WHEN I DO GET THE DOOR OPEN FROM OTHER SIDE IT WON'T CLOSE AND LATCH. I HAVE TO REPEATEDLY SLAM DOOR HARD TO GET IT TO LATCH. FORD GARAGE IN PAST LUBRICATES THE LATCH INSIDE THE DOOR BUT IT'S A TEMPORARY FIX. DEALING WITH THIS EVERY YEAR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC STATED THAT THE VEHCLE EXHIBITED THE SAME FAILURE RELATED TO CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM NUMBER: 13N02 (EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE ON THE BRAKE BOOSTER). THE MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM THE SERVICE CAMPAIGN AND PROVIDED NO REMEDY. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,584.
WHEN I HIT THE BRAKE HARD OR BRAKE OVER A BUMPY ROAD THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND SQUEAKING NOISE CAN BE HEARD. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR TESTING AND REPAIR AND THEY SAID THE PROBLEM IS SO COMMON THAT THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE AND ON BACK ORDER. WHILE THE CAR EVENTUALLY STOPS, IT IS A HAZARD BECAUSE IF IT FAILS YOU HAVE TO AVOID REAR ENDING A CAR IN FRONT OF YOU THAT IS STOPPED. THIS SOMETIMES RESULTS IN SWERVING OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID HITTING THAT PERSON. THIS IS A MANUFACTURER FLAW.
BRAKE BOOSTER/DIAPHRAGM ISSUE, KNOWN ISSUE IN OTHER EDGE MODELS. HISSING NOISE WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, SPONGY BRAKE FEEL TURNING TO EXCESSIVE FOOT PRESSURE NEEDED TO STOP THE CAR AND, AFTER STOPPING, BRAKE PEDAL CAN BE PUSHED TO THE FLOOR. THIS ISSUE FIRST OCCURRED DURING CITY DRIVING AND PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE.
WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 FORD EDGE THE BRAKE SYSTEM ON MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO FAIL ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN APPLYING PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE BRAKES BECAME VERY HARD, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED TO THE FLOOR BUT THE CAR WAS STILL MOVING FORWARD. THERE WAS ALSO A HISSING SOUND COMING FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL. I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, THE SEAT WARMER FOR THE DRIVER SEAT WAS ON, AND THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD AND THEN THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND INDICATED LOW OIL AND TO PLACE THE CAR IN PARK. I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK, TURNED OFF THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. I THEN TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND THE WARNING LIGHT WAS OFF ALONG WITH THE SEAT WARMER. I HAVE TO BELIEVE THIS WAS RELATED TO THE BRAKING ISSUE CREATING A POSSIBLE VACUUM LOSS THROUGH THE FAILED BRAKE BOOSTER SYSTEM AND INCREASING THE RPM'S. THE BRAKE BOOSTER SYSTEM IN MY CAR WAS REPAIRED (84,189 MILES) AT TIRES PLUS AT A COST OF $700 AND THE LOSS OF MY VEHICLE FOR TWO DAYS. THE SERVICE ADVISOR AT TIRES PLUS CALLED A LOCAL FORD DEALER SERVICE ADVISOR AND AFTER PROVIDING THE VIN# FOR MY CAR WAS ADVISED IT WAS NOT COVERED ALTHOUGH THIS IS A KNOW ISSUE AND A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN / CSPN1302 HAS BEEN ISSUED AND AMENDED WITH SUPPLEMENT #1. FORD MOTOR COMPANY NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS BY EITHER INCLUDING/EXTENDING THE CURRENT CSP 13N02 OR A RECALL TO REIMBURSE AUTO OWNERS THAT ARE DEALING WITH THE FAILING BRAKE BOOSTERS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS NOT GOING AWAY.
WHILE APPROACHING STOP LIGHT, BRAKES WERE EXTREMELY STIFF. WOULD NOT STOP. EXCESSIVE PRESSURE WAS NECESSARY TO STOP THE VEHICLE, AT WHICH TIME THE FRONT BRAKES LOCKED UP. INDEPENDENT AUTO SHOP INDICATED BACK BRAKES ARE NOT ENGAGING AND DO NOT WORK. FULL BRAKE JOB WAS COMPLETED AND WORKED FOR 3 WEEKS BEFORE REPEAT OF SAME PROBLEM. FAILURE MILEAGE 1ST TIME 51,000; 2ND TIME AT 51,500.
I BOUGHT MY FORD EDGE FROM A DEALERSHIP AND 4 DAYS AFTER HAVING IT I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY IN THE RAIN AND THE BACK SUNROOF SHATTERED FOR NO KNOWN REASON. I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT'S INCONCLUSIVE TO WHY IT BROKE
THE DRIVER'S DOOR SAYS 'DOOR AJAR' WHEN IT IS CLOSED. THEN, MY 2013 FORD EDGE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING. I TRY TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES AS WELL LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOOR. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF TRYING - I CAN GET IT TO TURN OFF. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER 2 MONTHS!
DRIVER DOOR SENSOR IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. WHEN DRIVING, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING APPEARS ON THE CONSOLE WHICH PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM AUTOMATICALLY LOCKING. THIS ISSUE ALSO CAUSE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHILE DRIVING AND CAN'T BE MANUALLY TURNED OFF.
MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THE POWER TAKE OFF UNIT WAS LEAKING AND NEEDED REPACE. FAILURE TO DO SO WOULD ENDANGER ME SINCE CAR TRANSMISSION WOULD FAIL. MECHANIC STATED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH FORD PTO UNITS, HOWEVER FORD REFUSES TO RECALL AUTO TO REPAIR PROBLEM

I PULLED BACK INTO THE DRIVE AND IT WORKED FINE. DROVE IT AROUND THE BLOCK AND IT WOULD WORK AND THEN NOT WORK. DANGEROUS I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND IT STOPPED WORKING AND AGAIN I HAD TO STAND ON THE BRAKE. I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND AGAIN IT WORKED FINE.
DRIVER DOOR STAYS WITH THE SIGN OF DOOR AJAR. IT HAS HAPPENED ON ALL 5 EDGES OF MYSELF AND 4 FAMILY MEMBERS. CHECK ON INTERNET AT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN NOT ONLY FORD EDGE, BUT ON EXPLORER AND EXPEDITION ALSO. BELIEVE TO BE A FACTORY DEFECT BUT NOBODY DOES ANYTHING WHICH I BELIEVE TO BE AN NHTSA ISSUE..
BRAKES ARE NOT FUNTIONING WELL THEY ARE VERY HARD AND MAKE NOICE
2013 FORD EDGE VIN# (XXXXXX) 58665 MILES MY WIFE DRIVES THIS CAR AND WAS COMPLETELY UNNERVED WHEN 3 TIMES THE CAR LOST POWER IMMEDIATELY AFTER A STOP AND THEN A LEFT TURN INTO TRAFFIC.

RIGHT HAND HALF SHAFT.. ORIGINAL SAFETY RECALL 14S10 RECENTLY MY MECHANIC FOUND THE RIGHT AXLESHAFT LEAKING AND COPIED THE ABOVE REFERENCED RECALL NOTICE AS IT MATCHES MY MAKE MODEL AND YEAR AS WELL AS MY VIN NUMBER. WHEN I CONTACT FORD TO FIND OUT HOW TO GET THIS LOOKED AT THEY INFORM ME I D9NT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL BECAUSE IT'S NOT ATTACHED TO MY VIN. THE RECALL COVERS THE MAKE MODEL AND YEAR OF MY VEHICLE SO I HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME BELIEVING THAT IT'S NOT POSSIBLE FOR MINE TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. MY MECHANIC DOESN'T DO RECALL WORK FOR FORD AND DISCOURAGES PEOPLE TO PAY AND HOPE TO BE REIMBURSED.
AIR CONDITIONING AND HEATING SYSTEM IS BLOWING OUT COOL AIR WHEN THE HEAT IS ON.
TAKATA RECALL- I HAVE CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND REQUESTED INFO. NO ONE HAS GOTTEN BACK TO ME AND IM STILL DRIVING MY CAR NOT KNOWING IF SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF MY VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BY THE RECALL

BRAKES GRIND WHEN APPROACHING A STOP. DEALER ADVISES THIS IS NORMAL AND NOT A PROBLEM
WHEN I PRESS MY BRAKES MY CAR WILL NOT STOP I HAVE PUT BRAKES ON IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS SO I KNOW MY BRAKES ARE GOOD. ALSO WHILE I AM DRIVING IT JUST TURNS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN. ALSO WHEN I GET GAS IT WILL NEVER START RIGHT UP IT ALWAYS TAKES ME 3 OR 4 TIMES FOR THE CAR TO START
OPEN DOOR WARNING LIGHTS COME ON EVEN WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED, HAPPENED 2 YEARS AGO WITH BACK DRIVERS DOORS AND WAS FIXED, A YEAR LATER THE SAME HAPPENS WITH THE DRIVERS DOOR. THIS IS CONSTANT ONCE YOU TURN ON THE CAR AND CLOSE ALL DOORS, SOMETIME IF DOOR IS CLOSE VERY HARD, LIGHT TURNS OFF. SOMETIMES WORKS, SOMETIMES DON'T. IT DOES NOT IMPEDES THE CAR TO DRIVE CORRECTLY BUT BOTHERS WITH SOUND, LIGHTS AND WARNINGS.
BRAKE BOOSTER HOSE HAS A LEAK. BRAKES HISS WHEN PRESSED AND GET SPONGY. IF PROBLEM GOES ON LONG ENOUGH WITHOUT BEING FIXED, THE VACUUM LEAKS INTO THE ENGINE CAUSING RPMS TO BOG DOWN WHEN BREAKS ARE PRESSED FOR EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME (EX. AT A STOP LIGHT) AND CAR STALLS OUT.
1. DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON UNLOCKING THE DOORS EVEN THOUGH ALL DOORS ARE SHUT COMPLETELY. THIS HAPPENS WHEN CAR STARTS AND AFTER CAR IS IN MOTION! 2. CONTROL BUTTON ON LEFT SIDE OF STEERING WHEEL NOT RESPONDING. AFTER 2 OIL CHANGES, NO ONE CAN RESET THE OIL LIFE. 3. NOT ABLE TO RUN SYNC VEHICLE REPORT. ALL OF THESE ISSUES ARE SPORADIC AND ONGOING!

THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD BE COVERED ONLY IF IT WERE MANUFACTURED IN CERTAIN PLANTS.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 71,000.
THE DOOR IS AJAR LIGHT ON THE CONTROL PANEL STAYS ON WHEN THE DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED. IT KEEPS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON AT NIGHT AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AND THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS AND REQUEST FOR A RECALL DUE TO THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGERS.
ALL THE CAR SENSORS HAVE GONE OUT IT SAYS THE DOORS ARE OPEN AT ALL TIME EVEN WHEN CLOSED TIGHTLY THE LIGHTS COME ON AND GO OFF ON THEIR OWN WHEN IT'S PARKED AND THE ENGINE IS SHUT OFF THE ENGINE OIL LIGHT POPS ON AND OFF THE AIR PRESSURE LIGHT STAYS ON THE AIR BAG LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF THE BACK UP CAMERA HARDLY EVER WORKS. THE HEAD LIGHTS HAVE DROPPED DOWN AND ONLY SHINE OUT ABOUT A 15 FEET AHEAD OF YOU WHILE DRIVING.
3RD DOOR AJAR SENSIOR ON MY EDGE. CLEANING DOESN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. 1ST TIME WAS 8/02/16, 2ND WAS 1/08/18, 3RD TIME IS NOW, WAITING ON MY LOCAL FORD DEALER TO FIX IT AGAIN.
I PURCHASED THIS CAR USED. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT OR EARLY MORNING HOURS. I SEE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET AND SALESMAN ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THESE ARE KNOWN FOR THIS BUT FORD WON'T STAND BEHIND IT. NOW I'M STRUGGLING TO FIND A WAY TO RESOLVE THIS.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS FAULTY. WARNING SHOWS DRIVER DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. WARNING OF FUEL FILL AREA. DOOR AJAR WARNING OCCURS WHEN STARTING VEHICLE AND WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT IS MALFUNCTIONING AS WELL ARE THE SHIFT TO PARK WARNING LIGHT. THESE LIGHTS COME ON WHEN I START THE CAR AND GO ON THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE TIME DRIVING THE VEHICLE.
THE TRANSMISSION WILL DISENGAGE AND YOU HAVE 0 POWER. THIS HAS HAPPENED 6 TIMES. SOMETIMES IT WILL BE AT 50MPH AND SOMETIMES IT WILL BE FROM A STOP WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOU CANNOT ACCELERATE. YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER, SHIFT TO PARK OR NEUTRAL, TURN OFF THE CAR, THEN RESTART THE CAR AND IT WORKS AGAIN. IF THIS HAPPENED WHILE TURNING LEFT AT A BUSY LIGHT AND THE CAR LOST POWER IT COULD BE CATASTROPHIC.
HAVE HAD LIGHTS STAY ON, COME BACK ON OR RADIO TURN ON IN GARAGE AFTER IT HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A WHILE. 10 OR MORE INSTANCES OF THE BATTERY BEING COMPLETELY DISCHARGED AFTER BEING TURNED OFF IN GARAGE FOR TWO TO FOUR DAYS. THERE WILL BE NO PROBLEMS FOR A LONG TIME FOLLOWED BY TIMES WHEN EVERY OTHER WEEK THERE IS A PROBLEM TO HAVING TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY EVERY NIGHT OR IT WON'T START. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY 4 OR 5 TIMES AND HAVE AGAIN ON A NEW DEEP CYCLE BATTERY HAVING PROBLEMS. ALSO HAD VEHICLE SHUT DOWN AT A STOP SIGN IN FIRST 6 MONTHS TO YEAR OF LIFE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS SOME SORT OF FUEL THING THAT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED EVERY 10,000 MILES TO KEEP IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. HOWEVER, IT COULD EASILY HAVE BEEN THE BATTERY, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING AND IS NOT MECHANICALLY INCLINED. WE HAVE HAD CONSTANT BATTERY PROBLEMS BUT NO FURTHER FUEL ISSUES.
WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 FORD EDGE AT 70MPH ON THE HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC I RECEIVED A WRENCH NOTIFICATION ON MY DASH AND THE ENGINE BEGAN TO STALL LEAVING ME WITH NO POWER TO CONTROL MY SPEED. AS MY CAR QUICKLY REDUCED SPEED ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY I ATTEMPTED TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER OUT OF HARMS WAY. ONCE I WAS OFF THE HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE AND I POWERED DOWN THE VEHICLE. WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE AGAIN I WAS PROMPTED WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT.
DRIVER DOOR OPEN SIGNAL STAYS ON, EVEN AFTER OPENING AND CLOSING DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES
THE BRAKE PEDAL IS VERY HARD TO PUSH, THE BRAKES HARDLY WORK, WHILE PUSHING ON THE HARD PEDAL THE PEDAL WILL GO PART OF THE WAY DOWN AND THEN SUDDENLY GET SOFT AND SUDDENLY ENGAGE BRAKES JERKING THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS FORWARD.
I OPENED THE SUNROOF OF THE CAR MAYBE 10 TIMES EVER SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR. THE CAR IS ONLY FIVE YEARS OLD. I PUSHED THE BUTTON TO CLOSE THE SUNROOF AND I HEARD A POP. THE SUN ROOF WILL NO LONGER CLOSE. THE PART THAT PULLS THE GLASS CLOSED AND OPEN SNAPPED. I WAS IN A PARKING LOT ABOUT TO GET OUT AND GO TO LUNCH WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I TOOK THE CAR TO TWO PLACES FOR REPAIR ESTIMATES. ONE WAS MY LOCAL FORD DEALER AND THE OTHER A COLLISION REPAIR PLACE. BOTH PLACES QUOTED $8000 TO REPAIR MY SUNROOF. THE CAR IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND AGAIN I HAVE ONLY OPENED THE SUNROOF MAYBE TEN TIMES EVER. NOW IT WILL NOT CLOSE AND $8000 IS JUST CRIPPLING AMOUNT OF MONEY TO REPAIR A SUNROOF. I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND SEE THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE WITH FORD SUNROOFS AND THIS IS SIMPLY JUST HORRIBLE. FORD KNOWS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE. THE REPLACEMENT PART IS OVER $6500 PLUS ABOUT 11 HOURS LABOR. FORD NEEDS TO MITIGATE THIS ISSUE. IT IS AN OUT RAGE THAT ANYONE SHOULD HAVE TO PAY THAT KIND OF MONEY ON A FIVE YEAR OLD CAR BECAUSE A PIECE OF FACTORY INSTALLED EQUIPMENT BREAKS WITH MINIMAL USAGE.
"DOOR AJAR" LIGHT ON DASH REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN DOORS SHUT SECURELY. THIS CAUSES INSIDE LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON, AND BUZZER TO BUZZ. PROBLEM CONTINUES DURING VEHICLE IN USE
WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND THE ACCELERATOR JUST GOES DEAD. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN 3 YEARS IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH. VERY SCARY. HAVE TO CRUISE TO SIDE OF THE ROAD AS THE GAS PEDDLE WILL NOT RESPOND AT ALL. FORD ALREADY CHARGED US $750 TO FIX IN 2016 AND NOW IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN. VERY UNSAFE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY WAS ALREADY REPLACED ONCE UNEXCEPTABLE
WHILE TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODED. NOTHING HIT THE ROOF PRIOR TO IT SHATTERING.
THE BRAKES WERE IN THE BEGINNING VERY HARD TO PRESS DOWN AND THEN AFTER PUSHING THEY WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH A HISSING SOUND. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT AND SCARY TO DRIVE AS I DIDN'T KNOW IF THEY WERE GIVING OUT. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ONLINE IT TURNS OUT THIS IS AND WAS A PROBLEM FORD KNEW ABOUT- THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS BAD. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR SOME VEHICLES, BUT OBVIOUSLY NOT ALL OF THEM, BECAUSE MINE DID NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL AND I HAD TO PAY $757 TO GET THIS REPAIRED.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OUT. THE DOOR WAS SHUT COMPLETELY. THE LIGHTS INSIDE THE CAR THEREFORE STAYED ON AS IT THOUGHT THE DOOR WAS OPEN. THIS PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE AS LIGHTS SHOWED UP ON DASH AND BEEPING STARTED- TELLING ME TO CLOSE THE DOOR. THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM FOR FORD- LOTS AND LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THE EXACT ISSUE- WHICH IS WHERE I FOUND OUT WHAT IT WAS. I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE A DEALER FIX THIS- $553.46. *TR
THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT IS NOW ROCKING- FORWARD WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED AND BACKWARDS WHEN GAS IS APPLIED. THE SEAT IS NO LONGER MOVING INTO ALL OF THE POSITIONS IT IS SUPPOSED TO. THIS JUST STARTED HAPPENING THE LAST FEW DAYS. IT HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER YET AND ONLINE THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE- SINCE THE EDGE WAS FIRST MADE ALL MODELS ARE INCURRING THIS. IF THE SEATS BREAK THEN THAT COULD BE DISASTROUS.
VEHICLE BRAKE NOT STOPPING AS NORMAL. BRAKE SEEMS TO FAIL - NEED TO PRESS HARD AND ALMOST CRASHED.
STEPPING ON THE GAS WILL NOT SHIP TO HIGHER GEAR - SEEMS STUCK IN 1 OR SECOND GEAR IS THIS A SHAFT LINKAGE ISSUE? - I SEE A RECALL.
WHEN YOU APPLY YOUR BRAKE, YOU DON'T KNOW IF THE CAR WILL STOP OR NOT AND SUDDENLY THE BRAKES WILL STOP HARD AND THROW THE PASSENGERS AGAINST SEAT BELT. IT IS ALMOST A VIOLENT STOP. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON 2013 FORD EDGES. BRAKE BOOSTER IS BAD. FORD WILL FIX SOME, BUT NOT ALL. DEPENDS ON YOUR VIN#. NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHY MY VIN# ELIMINATES ME WHEN IT IS COVERED ON MOST OTHERS. RECALLED ON BULLETIN 13N02, BUT ONLY ON SELECT VIN#'S EVEN THOUGH EVERYTHING IS IDENTICAL...MAKE, MODEL, YEAR, PROBLEM.
DOOR AJAR FRONT PASSENGER
DRIVING HOME ON A LOCAL STREET THAT ALLOWED 25MPH - I WAS GOING 23 MPH THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME UP THE CAR STARTED SHAKING AND THE SPEED REDUCED TO UNDER 5PH. I MANAGED TO PULL THE CAR OVER, PUT IT IN GEAR AND TURN IT OFF, TOOK THE KEYS OUT AND WAITED FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND STARTED THE CAR - THE LIGHT WENT OFF AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE MYSELF HOME. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AGAIN. NEXT TO THE WRENCH LIGHT WAS A MESSAGE TO REFER TO THE CAR MANUAL. THE MANUAL IDENTIFIES THE WRENCH LIGHT SYMBOL AS "POWERTRAIN MALFUNCTION/REDUCED POWER" POWERTRAIN OR AWD FAULT HAS BEEN DETECTED. INCIDENT OCCURED ON 9/14/18 AT 8:20PM ON A CLEAR NIGHT WITH LITTLE HUMIDITY NEITHER THE RADIO OR THE HEAT/AC WAS ON. I HAD THE WINDOW PARTLY OPENED.
OUR 2013 FORD EDGE HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM THREE TIMES IN A MONTH, TWICE ON FLAT ROADS, ONCE ON AN INCLINE/BRIDGE. YOU ARE DRIVING ALONG THE CAR IS MOVING, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU LOSE ALL POWER AND THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. YOU CAN'T PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND RESTART, YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, THEN THE CAR WILL START AGAIN. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, AS THE CAR IS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WITH NO POWER ANYTHING...ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HAPPENS ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHILE GOING 65 MPH, WITH A NARROW SHOULDER ON A BRIDGE, WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR (LIKE IT DID TODAY). THERE ARE NO DIAGNOSTIC CODES SO THERE ISN'T MUCH TO GO ON, YOU JUST HAVE TO START GUESSING AT THE SOLUTION. IT IS OBVIOUS THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM, THIS BOARD IS FILLED WITH THIS PROBLEM. YET FORD OR THE NTHSA ISN'T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT? DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE ACTION IS TAKEN?
JUNE 29, 2018 - BRAKE PEDAL HAS TO BE PUSHED TO FLOOR TO STOP; JULY 2: BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED JULY 13: PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN; 7/17 AIR IN LINE CLEARED; JULY 25: PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN - 7/27 BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED AGAIN: AUGUST 7: PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN AFTER DRIVING 500 MILES BUT 3 SERVICE DEPARTMENTS OF FORD DEALERS COULDN'T GET ME IN TO CHECK IT OUT AT THIS DATE; I DROVE THE CAR WITH THE SPONGEY BRAKE - NOT KNOWING IF THE CAR WOULD BE ABLE TO STOP OR IF THE BRAKES WOULD GO TOTALLY OUT AT ANY MOMENT! 8/31 SILSBEE FORD SERVICE DEPT. CALLED TO SAY I COULD BRING THE CAR IN; ON 9/7/2018 THEY CALLED TO SAY THE CAR NEEDS HCL MODULE; AS OF 9/9 NO REPLACEMENT HAS BEEN MADE AWAITING DECISION BY FORD. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM WHICH COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTS AND/OR DEATHS. IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM AFFECTING FORD EDGES FOR 2013 - FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER, MASTER CYLINDER & HCU - MODULE OF THE ABS! THE VEHICLES NEED TO BE RECALLED FOR THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEMS TO BE TOTALLY REPLACED BEFORE DEATHS RESULT! FORD EDGE OWNERS ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE THEIR VEHICLES! FORD MOTOR COMPANY WILL LOSE FUTURE BUSINESS AS A RESULT OF THE DANGERS FROM THIS ISSUE! DOCUMENTATION OF PROBLEM IS ATTACHED.
TAKATA RECALL. THE PTU HAS GONE BAD AT 80,000 MILES. ALSO WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT WHERE THE AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED AND THEY DID NOT
WHEN YOU PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL, YOU THINK YOU AREN'T GOING TO STOP, THEN IT SUDDENLY CATCHES AND THROWS ON THE BRAKE, MAKING A SUDDEN STOP. I WENT TO FORD DEALER AND THEY SAY IT'S NOT COVERED BY FORD EVEN THOUGH MANY 2013 EDGES ARE HAVING THE PROBLEM AND ARE COVERED FOR BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE. NO REASON FOR WHY SOME ARE COVERED AND OURS ISN'T. DEALER WANTS $450, BUT DOESN'T HAVE BRAKE BOOSTER PARTS. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR NOW. CALLED FORD CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE #13N02 FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER PROBLEMS IN 2013 FORD EDGE & LINCOLN MKX. OUR VIN NUMBER, HOWEVER, IS NOT COVERED. FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE DOESN'T KNOW WHY OURS ISN'T COVERED, BUT STILL NOT WILLING TO DO ANYTHING FOR US. WE HAVE 55,000 MILES, SO OUR REGULAR WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING 20 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT FAILED TO OPERATE AS INTENDED. AUTONATION FORD MARGATE (LOCATED AT 5401 W COPANS RD, MARGATE, FL 33063, (954) 644-4976) WAS CONTACTED, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
SMELLING GAS INSIDE OF CAR AND ALSO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON THAT STATES CHECK FUEL FILL INLET
POWER BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED. I WAS MOVING AND TRIED TO STOP AND HAD A DIFFICULT TIME STOPPING. BREAK PEDDLE COULD NOT BE PUSHED. FORD IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE (SEE FORD SERVICE BULLETIN 13N02). ALTHOUGH MY VEHICLE IS THE SAME IT DOES NOT FIT UNDER THE SERVICE BULLETIN. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CITUATION. IT ALMOST MADE ME PULL INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. I WAS STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN BEFORE PULLING ON TO A STATE ROAD WHERE TRAFFIC WAS GOING 55 MPH. TRI- STATE FORD IN AMARILLO TEXAS CONFIRMED THE BOOSTER WAS BAD JUST LIKE DESCRIBED IN THE SERVICE BULLETIN 13N02. I AM PAYING ALMOST $600 TO FIX SOMETHING F HAS ACKNOWLEDGED IS A PROBLEM AFTER I ALMOST HAD A WRECK. WHY DID I NOT GET A LETTER TO TELL ME OF THE POSSIBLE PROBLEM. WHY DID I ALMOST HAVE TO HAVE A WRECK TO DISCOVER WHAT FORD HAS KNOWN FOR YEARS?
FOR THE SECOND TIME SINCE BUYING THE CAR NEW THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NO GO OFF.
VEHICLE WAS RUNNING FINE AS I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY ONTO A STATE HIGHWAY. ONCE I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE STARTED SPUTTERING AND ACTED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO DIE. AN ORANGE WRENCH APPEARED ON MY DASH AND SAID "SEE MANUAL". I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE AROUND AND GOING ABOUT 2 MILES AN HOUR MADE IT BACK INTO MY DRIVEWAY...IT CONTINUED SPUTTERING AND KNOCKING TILL I PARKED IT. ONCE PARKED THE VEHICLE IDLED FINE BUT IF I WOULD PUT IT BACK INTO GEAR IT WOULD START THE SPUTTERING/DYING PROCESS AGAIN. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. THE FIRST TIME I FILED A COMPLAINT AS WELL BECAUSE THE FORD DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THERE WASN'T AN ERROR CODE. THE FIRST TIME I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH WITH THE CRUISE ON AND IT COMPLETELY CUT OUT AND I HAD TO MANEUVER MY WAY TO THE SHOULDER. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND IT SEEMED TO RESET IT. AGAIN THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG OR DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, EVEN THOUGH THEY SAID PROBLEMS LIKE THIS HAD BEEN REPORTED BY OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS.
8/11/2018 I CAME UPON STOPPED TRAFFIC WITH NOT ENOUGH TIME TO DECELERATE. I IMMEDIATELY HIT MY BRAKES, BUT REARENDED A PICKUP TRUCK. THE TRUCK FLIPPED OVER ON ITS PASSENGER SIDE. I CONTINUED TRAVELING AND WENT ON THE EMBANKMENT. AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I NOTICED FRONT PASSENGER SIDE IN FLAMES. PASSERSBY GOT BOTH OF US OUT. BUT THE CAR WAS TOTALLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. IT HAPPENED ON INTERSTATE.
BEFORE I CAN GO ANYWHERE IN MY CAR, THE DOOR AJAR INDICATION COMES ON. I HAVE TO KEEP SLAMMING MY DOOR SHUT FOR IT TO TURN OFF. IT HAS ALSO DRAINED MY BATTERY, MAKING MY CAR INOPERABLE UNTIL I REPLACE IT.
DRIVERS DOOR MALFUNCTIONING. SAFETY HAZARD. DOOR DOES NOT REGISTER CLOSE EVEN WHEN SLAM IT HARD.
DRIVER SIDE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS KNOWN TO BE SECURELY SHUT. THIS SIGNAL ENABLES/DISABLES FUNCTIONS IN THE CAR. SAFETY IS COMPROMISED WHEN AN ERRONEOUS SIGNAL IS BEING SENT, ESPECIALLY IF CHILDREN ARE PRESENT.
ON 6 OCCASIONS NOW MY 2013 FORD EDGE WHILE DRIVING HAS THROWN UP A CHECK ENGINE SIGN AND THE CAR WILL JUST PRETTY MUCH DIE WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC TO THE POINT THAT I AM BARELY MOVING. THEN SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED I TOOK IT TO FORD THEY SAID IT WAS THE BATTERY SO I BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND STILL SINCE THEN IT CONTINUES TO DO IT ALL OF THESE WAY BEFORE MY WARRANTY WAS UP BUT FORD COULD NEVER FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT ON THE OTHER OCCURRENCES. ON 8/18/2018 THE CAR THREW UP A WRENCH SIGN AGAIN WHILE DRIVING AND THE CAR PRETTY MUCH SHUT DOWN I BARELY MADE IT OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE BEING HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. ALL OCCURRENCES HAVE BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR LUCK I DON'T KNOW HOW I KEPT FROM BEING HIT DUE TO THE CAR PRETTY MUCH WOULD ONLY ROLL BECAUSE PRESSING ON THE GAS DID NOT GOOD. ONCE TO SAFETY AND PULLED OVER TO RESTART THE CAR IT WOULD START AND BE OKAY THEN SEVERAL WEEKS SOMETIMES MONTHS IT WOULD DO IT AGAIN. LAST OCCURRENCE WAS 8.18/2019
DRIVER DOOR LATCH SINGLES ADJUST BUT CLOSED. LEAVING INTERIOR LIGHT AND CHIN TO STAY ON. LIGHTING AT NIGHT ON THE CAN MAKES DRIVING DANGEROUS AND THE CHIN MAKEIS VERY DISTRACTING
2013 FORD EDGE WENT INTO LIMP HOME MODE. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DID NOT WORK. THE CAR IDLED ROUGHLY AND HAD NORMAL A/C, BRAKES AND STEERING. THE CAR WAS GOING 55 MPH ON A CROWDED ROADWAY.
BRAKE BOOSTER. BRAKES BEGAN TO MAKE A HISSING SOUND WHEN PRESSED, AND BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO PUSH DOWN WHEN NEEDING TO BRAKE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS FAULTY AND THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE DIAPHRAGM. COST TO ME WOULD BE $1000 AND WAS TOLD NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, THERE WAS A FORD RECALL ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM ON 2010-2013 FORD EDGES, BUT ONLY FOR VEHICLES MANUFACTURED DURING A CERTAIN TIME PERIOD. AFTER READING, THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS PARTICULAR RECALL AND THE COST WOULD BE OUT OF POCKET FOR THEM AS WELL. FORD IS TAKING NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE BRAKE ISSUE ON A PART THEY ALREADY KNOW IS FAULTY.
DRIVER'S DOOR STOPPED REGISTERING THAT IT WAS CLOSED, CAUSING "DOOR AJAR" WARNING REGARDLESS OF HOW HARD/COMPLETELY THE DOOR WAS SHUT. IT WOULD RESULT IN UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS, AS THE CAR WOULD CONSTANTLY ISSUE AN AUDIBLE AND VISUAL WARNING WHILE DRIVING (DURING SLOW SPEEDS/COMING TO A STOP), AND KEEP THE INTERIOR/EXTERIOR LIGHTS ON WHEN PARKED, DRAINING THE BATTERY. FORD MOTOR COMPANY IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND HAS PUBLISHED TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB 14-0011) FOR ITS SERVICE PERSONNEL, BUT HAS FAILED TO TAKE FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECTIVE PARTS IMPACTING A MULTITUDE OF THEIR VEHICLE MODELS (EDGE, EXPLORER, AND FLEX AS WELL AS LINCOLN MK-X & MK-T) FOR YEARS 2011-2014. UNOFFICIALLY, THIS AFFECTS YEAR MODELS 2009-2018, BASED ON INFORMATION ONLINE FORUMS SUCH AS FORDPROBLEMS.COM. THE COST TO FIX WAS IN EXCESS OF $500 AT MY LOCAL FORD DEALER, AND I FOUND IT QUITE TELLING THAT THEY HAD THE PART ON-HAND FOR SAME DAY-SERVICE, EVEN THOUGH MY VEHICLE IS NOW 5 YEARS OLD.
DOOR AJAR INDICATOR KEEPS RANDOMLY COMING ON. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND INTERNAL LIGHTS WILL BE LEFT ON. IT DRAINED MY BATTERY AND LEFT ME STRANDED 4 HOURS FROM HOME. TRULY RANDOM TIMES... WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, WHEN PARKED AND MAYBE HOURS LATER AFTER VEHICLE IS IN PARK.
FRONT SEAT MOVES BACK AND FRONT BROKE TRACK.
WITH THE VEHICLE IN PARK, AND READY TO START DRIVING, OR READY TO EXIT THE CAR, THE "DOOR AJAR" COMES ON. IF THE VEHICLE IS TO BE PARKED, THE DOME LIGHTS DO NOT GO OUT. IF THE VEHICLE IS TO BE DRIVEN, THE DOOR AJAR MESSAGE STILL DISPLAYS, A PUT IN PARK MESSAGE DISPLACES AND A WARNING NOISE IS GIVEN. THIS STARTED INTERMITTENTLY ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO AND RECLOSING THE DOOR WOULD CORRECT THE PROBLEM. NOW IT IS A BIG PROBLEM EVERY TIME THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS USED. I SEE FROM ON LINE THIS IS A CHRONIC PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. THIS IS A COST PROHIBITIVE REPAIR WHEN YOU NEED 4 NEW TIRES
FIRST MY ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING WHEN ACCELERATING ONTO FREEWAY, THEN EVENTUALLY STAYED SOLID. CODE CAME BACK AS AIR SENSORS. I REPLACED O SENSORS UP AND DOWN LEAN BANK 2S, AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER WENT OUT ON ME COMPLETELY, FOLLOWED BY CAR STALLING EVERYTIME BRAKE WAS APPLIED FOR LONGER THEN 15 SECONDS ON AND OFF . LONG STORY SHORT PAID 2,000 ON REPAIRS. THEN ALL THE SUDDEN ENGINE LIGHTS BACK ON FOLLOWED BY LOW TONE RUMBLE AND POWER LOSS WHEN ACCELERATING TO FAST. I ALREADY REPLACED SPARK PLUGS AND COIL PACKS ALL 6, AIR FILTER AND HAD 3 OIL CHANGES. SAD PART JUST PURCHASED THE CAR 7 MONTHS AGO. HAVOC MODULE TO CHANGE AC TO HEAT ALSO WENT OUT ON BOTH SIDES BUT I DISCONNECTED AN RECONNECTED BOX ON BOTH SIDES TO FIX MYSELF .DON'T KNOW IF IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE ON AIR PRESSURE NEEDED FOR ENGINE.
WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PLACED INTO PARK AND THE MOTOR IS TURNED OFF A WARNING POPS UP ON THE SCREEN. THE WARNING SAYS "SHIFT INTO PARK".
WHILE DRIVING DOWN ROAD (HIGHWAY) CAR GOES INTO A LIMP MODE AND WILL TRUST START SLOWING DOWN AND EVENTUALLY COMES TO A SLOW CRAWL LESS THAN 5 MPG.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. UPON STOPPING, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND A RATTLING AND KNOCKING SOUND COULD BE HEARD WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 137,000. *TT CONSUMER STATED POWER TRANSFER CASE OIL LEAKER. SOME HOW OIL LEAKED FROM POWER TRANSFER CASE OUT IS A SEALED UNIT. COST OF REPAIR $2,000.00. THIS PROBLEM EXIST IN MANY FORD EDGES NOT JUST MINE. IT'S A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT. UPDATED 10/16/18*JB
DRIVERS DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY SENSOR DEFECTIVE ,TELLS DRIVER THE DOOR IS OPEN AND YOU HAVE TO CHECK IT CONSTANTLY ,SOME TIMES IT GOES AWAY AND SOME TIMES IT DOES NOT
THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED INSPECTION FOR TOTAL PARTS AND LABOR COST OF $672. SOME 2013 FORD EDGES WERE RECALLED FOR THIS BUT NOT MINE. I CALLED FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO INQUIRE BUT ONCE I STATED MY QUESTION, REPRESENTATIVE HUNG UP. I TRIED CALLING BACK BUT NO ONE PICKED UP. I WANT TO KNOW WHY MY SPECIFIC EDGE WAS NOT INCLUDED WHEN IT OBVIOUSLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO IMMEDIATELY STOP. THE DEALER (DON DAVIS FORD LINCOLN, 633 N WATSON RD, ARLINGTON, TX 76011, (877) 417-2317) DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS FAULTY, BUT DECLINED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED AFTER MARCH OF 2013. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 101,000.
WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, THE PEDAL FEELS SPONGEY AND THE CAR FEELS AS IF IT IS NOT GOING TO STOP. IN ORDER TO MAKE IT STOP, YOU HAVE TO APPLY MORE PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES THAN NORMAL. I FIRST NOTICED IT WHILE I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, BUT IT ALSO OCCURS ANY TIME YOU HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. WE TOOK IT IN TO A REPAIR SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE POWER BOOST WAS BAD AND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE EDGE. WE THEN TOOK IT IN TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS THE POWER BOOST PROBLEM AND THE MASTER CYLINDER MIGHT ALSO BE AFFECTED. WHILE SEARCHING ONLINE, WE FOUND THAT IT IS INDEED A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2010-2013 FORD EDGE. OUR COMPLAINT IS THAT IF THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THESE CARS, WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL? THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. WE ALSO FOUND THAT FORD WILL COVER THE REPAIRS FOR THIS PROBLEM ONLY IF YOU HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. UNFORTUNATELY, WE DO NOT HAVE ONE AND THEREFORE MUST PAY THE ENTIRE COST FOR A DEFECT THAT IS KNOWN TO OCCUR WITH THESE CARS. MY 2013 EDGE HAS ONLY ABOUT 50,000 MILES AND I FEEL THAT FORD SHOULD BE RECALLING AND FIXING THIS DANGEROUS FLAW. THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR FORD'S MANUFACTURING DEFECT. COVERAGE SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO ALL FORD EDGE OWNERS WHOSE CARS HAVE THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT REGARDLESS.
EACH TIME I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP MY 2013 FORD EDGE ON CITY STREETS AND ON INTERSTATES, THE BRAKE MADE A HISSING SOUND AND WAS DIFFICULT TO PUSH TO STOP MY VEHICLE. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM JUNE 21 2018 SHORTLY BEFORE GOING OUT OF TOWN. UPON RETURNING, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP FOR JULY 12. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT EMPLOYEE TOLD ME THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAD TO BE REPLACED. MY VEHICLE'S COMPUTER SYSTEM SHOWED THAT MY BRAKES WERE OKAY, SO THIS MAJOR REPAIR OF $732 SURPRISED ME. AFTER RESEARCHING THE FORD CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13NO2, I DISCOVERED MY VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED IN THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR BRAKE BOOSTERS. THE EDGE MANUFACTURING CUT OFF DATE WAS MARCH 28, 2013 AND MY EDGE WAS MANUFACTURED MAY 2, 2013. I CONTACTED THE FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO EXPRESS CONCERN THAT MY EDGE EXHIBITED THE SAME BRAKING PROBLEMS AS THOSE THAT WERE COVERED IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM.I WAS ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER AND WAS TOLD MY CASE WAS ESCALATED TO THE SERVICE MANAGER WHO WOULD REVIEW IT. MY RECEIPT FROM THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS FAULTY AND I CALLED FORD'S CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHEN THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETE. I WAS TOLD THAT FORD WOULD NOT ASSIST ME FINANCIALLY WITH ALL OR PART OF THE COST TO REPLACE THE BRAKE BOOSTER. BECAUSE OF MY RESEARCH, I KNOW I AM NOT THE ONLY 2013 FORD EDGE OWNER WHOSE FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTER HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED AT THE OWNERS' EXPENSE. THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR THE VEHICLE DRIVER AS WELL AS OTHERS ON THE ROADS. I HAVE INCLUDED A SCAN OF MY REPAIR RECEIPT AND A SCAN OF THE CHAT I HAD WITH THE FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR RANDOMLY SOUNDS OFF. THIS STARTED ON OR AROUND 7/2/2018 WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. HOWEVER, IT HAS SINCE PROGRESSED TO RANDOMLY DO IT WHILE IN MOTION, ON A CITY STREET OR A HIGHWAY. THIS CAUSES ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON, EVEN IN HOURS OF DARKNESS.
AS I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, MY VEHICLE STALLED ON THE HIGHWAY. WITHOUT ANY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR SOUNDS THE GAS PEDAL DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO IT, IT JUST WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN AND THEN DIED. THE ENGINE WOULD TURN, BUT IT'S AS IF GAS WASN'T GETTING TO THE ENGINE AND IT WOULDN'T START. I TRIED A COUPLE TIMES TO START IT, NO SUCCESS. STILL NO WARNING LIGHTS. AS THE TOW COMPANY WAS ON THE WAY, ABOUT 20 MINUTES LATER, I TRIED AGAIN AND IT STARTED. AS IF NOTHING WAS WRONG. NO VEHICLES WERE BEHIND ME TO HIT ME WHEN IT DIED AND I WAS ABLE TO STEER TO THE SHOULDER. I WENT TO FORD SERVICE LATER ON AND I WAS TOLD THAT SINCE NONE OF THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON THERE MORE THAN LIKELY IS NOT A CODE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE THE FUEL PUMP. I NOW DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOPING IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THERE IS A RECALL ON 2013 FORD EDGE FUEL SYSTEM, BUT MINE IS NOT ONE TO BE RECALLED.
RECALL #13N02 DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER COMPLETELY FAILED; HAD TO PRACTICALLY STAND ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP. FOUND THIS RECALL, AND IT APPEARED TO COVER MY YEAR, BUT WAS TOLD BY FORD THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. SPENT ABOUT 400.00 OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE.
WHILE DRIVING, WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON, VEHICLE LOSES ALL ACCELERATION, ENGINE IDLES. MANAGED TO GET THE CAR OVER TO THE SHOULDER, TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND BACK ON, EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN 2 HOURS LATER. TOOK CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO WITH READING THE CODES. THEY DROVE MY CAR FOR 8 MILES TRYING TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM TO NO AVAIL. I'M 5 MONTHS PREGNANT AND FEELING VERY UNSAFE IN MY CAR. I WAS TOLD THAT IT MIGHT NOT HAPPEN AGAIN, BUT IF IT DOES, GO TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP.
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON A MAIN THOROUGH FARE AND EVEN ON A HIGHWAY IT BEGAN TO LOSE POWER AND SLOW DOWN REGARDLESS OF PRESSING THE GAS. THEN IT BEGAN TO RIDE ROUGH AND CHOKE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON ALONG WITH THE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT. ALSO EXPERIENCED IT SHUTTING OFF WHILE SITTING WITH IT IDLE IN A FAST FOOD LINE. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY INSISTED NOTHING WAS WRONG AND COULD NOT GET A READ ON THE COMPUTER. I REFUSED TO PICK IT UP FROM THE DEALER UNTIL THEY EXPERIENCED WHAT I EXPERIENCED AND IT FINALLY HAPPENED AFTER 9 DAYS.
WHILE DRIVING HOME (15 MINUTE DRIVE) ON BOTH THE CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY WHENEVER I PRESSED ON THE BRAKES IT WOULD MAKE A HISSING SOUND, THE BRAKES WOULD FEEL SPONGY, AND THE CAR WOULD FEEL LIKE ITS NOT SLOWING DOWN OR GOING TO STOP. WHEN I WAS COMING TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT THE BRAKES ONCE AGAIN MADE THE HISSING SOUND, FELT SPONGY, AND THE VEHICLE FELT LIKE IT WAS NOT GOING TO STOP. I HAD TO PRESS DOWN ON THE BRAKES HARD AND THE VEHICLE SLOWLY CAME TO A STOP ALMOST REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. WHILE SITTING AT THE RED LIGHT WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKES THE HISSING SOUND GRADUALLY BECAME LOUDER THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY ENGINE STALLED AND SHUT OFF.THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND MULTIPLE CARS WERE BEHIND ME HONKING AT ME. IT TOOK A COUPLE ATTEMPTS OF PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK, TURNING THE KEY AND TAKING THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION BEFORE THE CAR STARTED AGAIN. THE BRAKES CONTINUED TO BE LIKE THIS ALL THE WAY HOME. WHEN I PULLED INTO THE GARAGE TO PARK, THE BRAKES DID THE SAME THING. IT MADE A HISSING SOUND, FELT SPONGY, FELT LIKE IT WASN'T GOING TO STOP, AND I HAD TO PRESS HARD FOR IT TO SLOWLY COME TO A STOP ALMOST HITTING THE GARAGE IN FRONT OF ME.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE STARTING MAKING A HIGH PITCH WHISTLING/SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN I PUSHING DOWN ON MY BRAKE PEDAL WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED. I NOTICED IT STARTED GETTING HARDER TO PUSH THE BREAK PEDAL DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC TO CHECK THE BRAKES. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE POWER BREAK BOOSTER HAVING THE PROBLEM, AND THAT THERE HAD ACTUALLY BEEN A RECALL ON THIS BY FORD (FOR MY MAKE/MODEL/YEAR) AND THAT A DEALERSHIP SHOULD FIX IT. I CALLED A DEALERSHIP AND GAVE THEM MY VIN NUMBER. THEY SHARED, WHILE THIS WAS A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR MANY FORD EDGES, MY SPECIFIC CAR WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. AFTER LOOKING INTO IT, I FOUND THERE WERE MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH A 2013 FORD EDGE AND THAT THEIR VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IF A HUNDRED PEOPLE ARE REPORTING THIS ISSUE WITH THEIR CAR (SAME MAKE, MODEL & YEAR) IT LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THERE WERE MORE CARS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. UNFORTUNATELY, FORD HAS BEEN EXTREMELY UNHELPFUL. I CALLED THE CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE AND WHEN ASKING TO SPEAK WITH A SUPERVISOR TO CONTINUE THE CONVERSATION I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO SUPERVISOR...WHICH IS CLEARLY UNTRUE. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH FORD'S RESPONSE & THE LACK OF RESPONSIBILITY BEING TAKEN WHEN THIS CLEARLY IMPACTS MORE CARS. NOW, I'M STUCK PAYING THE BILL WHICH IS ABOUT $600. I DECIDED TO SUBMIT THIS COMPLAINT IN THE HOPES THAT ENOUGH PEOPLE COME FORWARD FOR AN INVESTIGATION TO BE LAUNCHED CONCERNING THE ISSUE.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCKING SWITCH IS DEFECTIVE..WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED THE SWITCH UNLOCKS ALL DOORS !!! WILL NOT STAY LOCKED.. *TT
THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS ISSUE. THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE ISSUE FIRST OCCURED JUNE 5. AS I WAS LEAVING WORK THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN SLIPPING/HESITATING FROM A STOP OR DURING ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE WOULD JUMP/JERK WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL. WOULD NOT SWITCH TO A HIGHER GEAR. WHEN APPLYING BRAKES VEHICLE WOULD JUMP/JERK WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT. PERIODS WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD GET TO SPEED THEN SLIP. THERE WAS NO PRIOR DAMAGE TO VEHICLE TO CAUSE THIS MALFUNCTION. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED IT, AND LEFT IT WITH THEM AFTER THE SERVICE AGENT WAS BARELY ABLE TO DRIVE AROUND THE BLOCK. AFTER 2 WEEKS OF CALLING THE DEALERSHIP TO CHECK THE STATUS OF THE VEHICLE, I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT, AND RETURNED THE VEHICLE ON JUNE 19TH, AND HAS NOT DRIVEN THE SAME PRIOR TO THIS ISSUE. THIS MORNING, JULY 13TH, WHEN I PULLED OUT ONTO THE FRONTAGE ROAD THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE TO SPEED AND HESITATED. I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROADWAY AND TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS ISSUE.
TAKATA RECALL EVEN THOUGH VEHICLE IS IN PARK WARNING MESSAGE SAYING SHIFT TO PARK
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP THE VEHICLE, A HISSING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS AND REQUIRED EXTRA FORCE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER (TOWN AND COUNTRY FORD OF NASHVILLE, 101 ANDERSON LANE, MADISON, TN) WERE BOTH NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.
BRAKES DIFFICULT TO OPERATE, HEARD HISSING SOUND. FORD DEALER SAID IT WAS BAD BRAKE POWER BOOSTER. FORD HAS EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR SAME YEAR AND MODEL BUT NOT IF BUILT AFTER MARCH 2013. I CONTACTED FORD BUT THEY WILL NOT COVER THE COST, IT APPEARS MANY OTHERS HAVE SAME ISSUE, ITS NOT LOGICAL THEY WOULD NOT COVER REPLACEMENT FOR SAME YEAR MODEL AND SAME PART FAILURE. WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY THEY GIVE TO SOME IT SAYS 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES SO THEY KNOW THE PART SHOULD NOT FAIL AT 71,000 MILES FOR SUCH A CRITICAL SAFETY PART.
DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT LOCK. DOOR AD JAR MESSAGE ON DASH. WHEN YOU MANUALLY LOCK THE DOOR THEY IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK. CAN NOT KEEP DOORS LOCKED. TRIED LOCKING DOOR BEFORE STARTING ENGINE BUT DOORS UNLOCKS AS SOON AS CAR STARTS EVEN BEFORE CAR IS IN MOTION. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST ALL THE TIME THE CAR IS STARTED. I JUST DRIVE WITH THE ERROR OF N THE DASH BOARD "PUT CAR IN PARK" AND AN OCCASIONAL AUDIBLE SOUND.
DOOR AJAR ON DRIVERS SIDE PASSENGER DOOR. MECHANIC ADVISED SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE WITH A VEHICLE THIS AGE. I SEE ONLINE MANY CONSUMERS REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE. I FIND THIS VERY CONCERNING AS WE HAVE SMALL CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT, AGES 2 AND 4. EVEN OF IT'S A SENSOR ISSUE, IT EFFECTS THE ABILITY TO LOCK THE CAR, AND THE DOME LIGHT OVERHEAD TO STAY ON FOR SOME TIME. PLUS, WHAT IF FOR NOW IT'S A SENSOR BUT LATER THE LATCH DOESN'T WORK? HOW WOULD ANYONE KNOW THE DIFFERENCE IF THE LIGHT IS STILL PRESENT? THE LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME, WHETHER PARKED OR IN MOTION.
WITHOUT WARNING BRAKE PEDDLE WENT STRAIGHT TO FLOOR WHEN DEPRESSED TO SLOW DOWN. CAR HAD TO BE BUMPED ALONG CURB TO SLOW TO A STOP. CALLED TOW TRUCK TOOK TO FORD DEALERSHIP. SERVICE TECH CLAIMED THE PROBLEM WAS IN A MODULE CONTROLLED BY THE PCM. THIS NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMED? THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. I HAVE NO GUARANTEE IT WONT HAPPEN AGAIN.
THE BREAK BOOSTER WAS JUST ON RECALL LAST YEAR AND WAS FIXED BY THE FORD DEALERSHIP. IT IS NOW MESSED UP AGAIN AND IS NO LONGER UNDER RECALL. THE PAINT ON THE BUMPER OF MY 2013 FORD EDGE THAT IS ALWAYS CARPORT KEPT IS PEELING.
TAKATA RECALL MY 2013 FORD EDGE HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH THE DOOR. IT CONSTANTLY TELLS ME MY DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS IN FACT CLOSED. THE LIGHTS STAY ON AND IF I TRY TO DRIVE THE CAR IT GIVES ME A WARNING SAYING SHIFT TO PARK AND THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN. IT'S BEEN HAPPENING CONTINUSLY AND SOMETIMES THE DOOR WON'T LOCK AT ALL. IT NORMALLY HAPPENS WHEN I'M IN PARK BUT AS OF RECENTLY IT'S HAPPENED AS IM DROVING. I'M ALSO HAVING ISSUES WITH MY BRAKES HITTING THE FLOOR AND MY CAR EXCELLERATING INSTEAD OF SLOWING DOWN WHEN THE BRAKES ARE PRESSED...THIS NORMALLY HAPPENS ON A FREEWAY WHEN I'M DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS.
THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAS FAILED ON MY VEHICLE. I CONTACTED FORD. THEY ADVISED ME THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL, BUT MY VEHICLE ISN'T COVERED. I NEED TO KNOW WHY FORD REFUSES TO REPAIR THE BRAKES ON MY VEHICLE WHEN THEY KNOW THERE IS PROBLEM. FORD ISSUED A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM TO COVER CERTAIN VEHICLES. BUT REFUSE TO COVER OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL WITH THE EXACT SAME DEFECT. THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAS FAILED ON MY VEHICLE, MAKING UNSAFE TO DRIVE. FORD WILL NOT COVER THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE HAS 48.000 MILES ON IT.
WHY DRIVING 40 MPH THE CAR ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED ON OIL PRESSURE LOW. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND THE STEERING LOCKED UP MAKING IT IN POSSIBLE TO GET THE CAR OFF THE ROAD. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HAD JUST DRIVEN ON 4 HWYS TO GET HOME 50 MINUTES. WHAT IF THIS HAPPENS WHY SOMEONE IS ON THE HIGHWAY.
THE " DOOR AJAR " SWITCH IN THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS MALFUNCTIONING. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM IN A LOT OF FORD EDGES. IT IS NOT EASY TO REPLACE AS THE DOOR HAS TO BE COMPLETELY TAKEN APART. COST ESTIMATE IS $400. TO REPLACE A $80 PART. BAD DESIGN. FORD SHOUL DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.
MY CAR KEEPS SAYING PASSENGER DOOR IS OPEN. BUT IT IS NOT OPEN.I AM AFRAID THIS WILL DRAIN MY BATTERY SO I DISCONNECT MY BATTERY WHEN AT WORK AND AT HOME.
TRAVELING ON SECONDARY ROAD AND EXPERIENCED SUDDEN POWER LOSS. "AWD OFF" MESSAGE APPEARED ON SCREEN, ALONG WITH WRENCH ICON. I MANAGED TO LIMP ONTO THE SHOULDER (THANK GOD I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY). CAR WOULD NOT REV UP OR MOVE. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, AND RESTARTED IT. EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE FINE AT THAT POINT, BUT I AM VERY AFRAID OF THIS HAPPENING DURING MY DAILY COMMUTE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY.
OUR DRIVERS DOOR LATCH INDICATES DOOR IS OPEN, HOWEVER, DOOR IS CLOSED. I SEE THAT THIS WAS CONSIDERED NOT TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE BY YOU, HOWEVER, AT NIGHT THE DOME LIGHTS DO NOT TURN OFF MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHEN BACKING UP, ETC. THE DOOR THINKS IT IS OPEN AND MY GREATEST CONCERN IS THE AUTOMATIC LOCKING MECHANISM DOES NOT WORK ON OUR CAR, HAMPERING THE SAFETY OF MY GRANDCHILDREN RIDING IN THE BACK SEAT. PLEASE CLARIFY HOW THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE. ARTICLE: THE INVESTIGATION OPENED LAST SEPTEMBER LOOKED INTO COMPLAINTS THAT THE DOOR AJAR WAS ALWAYS ILLUMINATED, MAKING IT HARD TO OCCUPANTS TO TELL IF THE DOORS WERE PROPERLY LATCHED. ACCORDING TO A INVESTIGATION SUMMARY, THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION IDENTIFIED 1,983 COMPLAINTS FOR 2011-13 MODEL YEAR EDGE VEHICLES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, AN ABNORMAL SOUND WAS HEARD. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE BRAKES WERE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED, BUT DID NOT ASSIST BECAUSE THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.
AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET ON A NORMAL RIDE, ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION AND THEN GLASS SHATTERING. MY SUNROOF/MOONROOF HAD SHATTERED. ALL FOUR CORNERS ARE BUSTED OUT. THIS WAS OUT OF THE BLUE, NO OTHER ISSUES HAD OCCUR.
MY WIFE WAS OPERATING HER VEHICLE AND NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT ON 6/17/18 BEING. ONE BY SHE TOOK IT TO MIDIS MUFFLER AND BRAKE TO INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM. THEY PERFORMED A CHECK AND ADVISED IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND THERE WAS A RECALL,EXTENDED WARRANTY THROUGH THE FORD, WE IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED APPLE FORD IN LYNCHBURG VA , THEY DIDN'T EXPRESS AND CONCERN AND WE'RE HESITANT TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE WE DIDN'T BUY THE VEHICLE THRU THEIR DEALERSHIP,AFTER GOING BACK AND FORTH AND GETTING NO WHERE WE HUNG UP. WE THEN CONTACTED BERGLUND BEDFORD, VA WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE THERE AND THEY ALSO SERVICED IT FOR 5 YEARS, WE AGAIN. GOT EXTREMELY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, TH THEY WANTED TO CHARGE US TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM ,WHICH WAS DONE FOR FREE AT THE OTHER SHOP , THEY EXPRESSED NO CONCERN ,GAVE US A SERVICE DATE ONE AND A HALF WEEKS OUT. WE SPOKE WITH THE MANAGER NAME BRIAN WHOM ALSO DIDN'T CARE AND SAID WE DRIVE IT AT OUR RISK. A MAIN ISSUE ALL THE YEARS THEY SERVICES IT THE PROBLEM WAS KNOWN AND THEY DID NOTHING, WE EVEN HAD THE BRAKES CHECKED AND SERVICED IN OCT 2017 . THEY CHOSE TO LET AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION OCCUR.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE. 2013 FORD EDGE SPORT. I HEAR A HISSING COMING FROM MY BRAKE PEDAL WHEN IT IS DEPRESSED. ALSO THE PEDAL IS EITHER HARD TO DEPRESS AND/OR WILL FADE TO THE FLOOR. WHEN I NOTICED THE FAILURE I WAS TRAVELING IN CITY TRAFFIC. I NEARLY REAR ENDED A VEHICLE, TRYING TO GET MY VEHICLE TO STOP. I SAW THERE WAS A CUSTOMER SERVICE PROGRAM # 13N02 FOR 2010-2013 FORD EDGE'S. FOR SOME REASON MINE WAS NOT INCLUDED, BUT HAS FAILED THE EXACT SAME WAY. I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF THE REPAIR.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE AT 88000 MILES. ABRUBT ONSET OF HARD BRAKE PEDAL WITH SLOW BRAKING RESPONSE. VERY HARD PRESSURE APPLICATION WOULD EVENTUALLY STOP CAR. APPARENT RECALL ON SAME PART BUT FORD IS NOT COVERING REPAIR COST.
I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE, BRAKES GO TO FLOOR BUT NOT ALL THE TIME. 1 ST TIME I HAD BOOSTER DONE UNDER RECALL DEC 2016 MILEAGE 59080, 2 ND OCT 2017 BRAKES DID IT AGAIN MILEAGE 66982, PUT ANOTHER BOOSTER IN UNDER RECALL. DEC 2017 MILEAGE 68078 HAPPEN AGAIN, THIS TIME THE DEALER CHECK OUT THE HOLD BRAKE SYSTEM (THE SLIDE, CALIBERS ETC.) EVERYTHING OK. JUNE 2018 HAPPEN AGAIN MILEAGE 71926 . I DID HAVE AN AUTO REPAIRMAN TRY AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR ON HIM AS WELL. I SPOKE WITH FORD ABOUT IT FORD GAVE ME A CASE # CAS- 15014600 SAID I NEEDED A DEALER TO CHECK IT AGAIN. I WENT TO PRIME FORD IN AUBURN MA (THE SAME AS THE OTHER 3 TIMES), THEY CHECKED IT AND COULD NOT FIND AND THING WRONG, THEY ASKED ME TO LEAVE IT FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS WHICH I DID AND THEY STILL COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. I KNOW IT IS NOT THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER BECAUSE WHEN THEY CHANGED THE BOOSTER THEY WOULD HAVE NOTICE LEAKAGE. PRIME HAS GONE OVER THE WHOLE BRAKE SYSTEM MADE SURE EVERYTHING WORKS OK. MY PROBLEM IS YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN THIS WILL HAPPEN, I LOOKED ON CAR PROBLEM SITE AND SAW WHERE THE FORD EDGE HAS HAD OVER 300 BRAKE PROBLEMS AND SOME OF THE THOSE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. BUT WHAT HAPPENS NOW IF YOU NEED TO STOP REAL QUICK AND IT HAPPENS? CAR WAS MOVING AROUND 30 - 35M/H WHEN YOU GO TO STOP.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE PASSENGER DOOR LIGHTING REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND THE DOORS FAILED TO LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MIKE REICHENBACH FORD LINCOLN (600 N COIT ST, FLORENCE, SC 29501, 888-293-4503) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH MECHANISM FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VEHICLE WILL EXHIBIT A FULL LOSS OF POWER. AFTER PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND TRYING TO RESTART IT WILL EXPERIENCE A LONG AND HARD START. THE VEHICLE WILL DO THIS WEATHER YOU ARE DRIVING 5MPH OR 70 MPH. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO BE IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS WITH MY 3 CHILDREN IN THE CAR.
MY VEHICLE HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR FORD BULLETIN 13N02 AND FORD WONT COVER COST OF REPAIR. BULLETIN STATES YEAR 2013 AND VEHICLES BUILT AT OAKVILLE PLANT IN CANADA. I FEEL MY SAFETY REPAIR SHOULD BE COVERED, YET I HAD TO PAY $480 OUT OF POCKET. FORD HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO TELL ME WHY IT NOT BEING COVERED
I WAS TRAVELING ON HWY 441 UP A STEEP HILL AND TRIED TO PASS A TRUCK.THE CAR COMPLETELY LOST POWER. I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER CAR. ON JUNE 7, 2018 BETWEEN ENTERPRISE, AL. AND MONTGOMERY AL. I WAS ATTEMPTING TO LEGALLY PASS ANOTHER CAR AND THE CAR AGAIN COMPLETELY LOST POWER ALMOT CAUSING A FRONT END COLLISION WITH ANOTHER CAR AT 65 MILES AN HOUR. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED IF FORD DOES NOT FIX MY CAR. I HOPE IT IS NOT YOUR FAMILY.
WHILE IT STARTS INTERMITTENTLY, THE 'DOOR AJAR' LIGHT IS COMING ON ' AND STAYING ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CERTAINLY CLOSED. OVER TIME THERE IS NO AMOUNT OF DOOR SLAMMING THAT CAN GET THAT WARNING LIGHT TO SHUT OFF. IT'S MOST LIKELY AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE RELATED TO THE SWITCH INSIDE THE LATCH MECHANISM. WHILE THE DOOR WILL MECHANICALLY LATCH, ISSUES WITH THE SWITCH MAKE THE DOOR APPEAR TO BE OPEN TO THE CAR'S ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU). IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK, DRIVE, NEUTRAL, REVERSE. THE LIGHT STILL REMAINS ON WHEN ATTEMPTING TO CLOSE THE DOOR. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS.
THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT GO OFF WHEN SHUTTING THE DOOR. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR A MONTH NOW. IT POSES A SAFETY RISK TO CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT WHO MAY OPEN A UNLOCKED DOOR NOW BECAUSE OF THIS SENSOR FAILING TO OPERATE BECAUSE OF FORDS HORRIBLE ENGINEERING
BACKED OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND HAD TO PUMP/FLOOR BRAKES TO GET STOPPED! ON MAIN STREET IN FRONT OF A SCHOOL! NEW BRAKES HAD BEEN PUT ON A COUPLE MONTHS PRIOR. HAD THEM CHECKED BY MECHANIC THAT PUT THEM ON.
TAKATA RECALL
FRONT DRIVER DOOR CLOSED SENSOR INTERMITTENTLY NOT WORKING AND BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. WHILE DRIVING IT SAYS THE DOOR IS OPEN
DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS CLOSED. OCCURS WHILE STATIONARY AND WHILE IN MOTION. PREVENTS DRIVERS DOOR FROM BEING LOCKED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION PRESENTING A SAFETY HAZARD TO THE DRIVER.
THE SENSOR ON THE BACK DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS MAKING IT APPEAR THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS NOT. THIS CAUSES THE DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON AND IS AFFECTING THE ALARM ON THE CAR.
THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WILL CLOSE, BUT THINKS IT IS NOT CLOSED - SO THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. DRIVING AROUND IN MEMPHIS, TN WITH YOUR DOORS UNLOCKED IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD - AM IN GRAVE DANGER OF BEING CARJACKED AT A STOP LIGHT. IT WILL NOT CLOSE TO LOCK IT AT WORK OR IN MY DRIVEWAY - AND RUNS DOWN THE BATTERY. OPENING AND CLOSING IT SOMETIMES 50 TIMES (USUALLY WITHOUT SUCCESS) IS ANNOYING AND PAINFUL. I KNOW MY NEIGHBORS HATE ME MAKING SO MUCH NOISE TRYING TO CLOSE MY DOOR (THAT SEEMS TO REALLY BE CLOSED, BUT SOME SENSOR DOESN'T THINK SO). THERE ARE TONS OF COMMENTS ACROSS THE INTERNET WITH THIS PROBLEM. WHY HAS IT NOT BEEN RECALLED? AND IF IT REALLY ISN'T CLOSING, THEN WE HAVE A WHOLE NEW ISSUE!
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOORS ARE DEFINITELY SHUT TIGHT. SOMETIMES THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHEN THE CAR IS PUT IN DRIVE. SOMETIMES THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON WHICH CAN BE A PROBLEM AT NIGHT.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME.
THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER HAS FAILED AT 69000 MILES. THIS FAILURE IS CONSISTENT WITH FAILURES FORD HAS FIXED ON THE FORD EDGE MANUFACTURED PRIOR TO MARCH 28, 2013. MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED IN MAY OF 2013. I DO NOT FEEL THAT FORD RESOLVED THE ISSUE WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE. THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITION WITH THE LARGE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE REQUIRED TO STOP THE CAR. IN SEVERAL CASES, I WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE CARE SAFELY. FORD ISSUED A SERVICE NOTIFICATION FOR THE VEHICLES MANUFACTURES PRIOR TO MARCH 28, 2013, - 13N02. I FEEL THAT THE ISSUE WAS NOT ADDRESSED AND CONTINUES PAST THAT DATE.
THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR SWITCH ON MY 2013 FORD EDGE IS MALFUNCTIONING. THE SENSOR BELIEVES THE DOOR IS OPEN EVEN WHEN IT CLOSED, AND IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE DOORS TO BE LOCKED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I HAVE CHILDREN AND THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY CONCERN. THE MALFUNCTIONING SENSOR ALSO KEEPS THE DOME LIGHTS ON CONSTANTLY DRAINING THE BATTERY AND WILL LIKELY LEAVE US STRANDED WITH A DEAD BATTERY. MULTIPLE SAFETY CONCERNS HERE.
WHEN COMING TO A STOP LIGHT MY BREAKS BECAME SPONGY AND HISSING WHEN PRESSED AND IS HARD TO PUSH DOWN AS IF I HAD NO BREAKS AT ALL AND AIR WAS COMING OUT OF THEM. I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR THIS. I HAD MY KIDS IN THE CAR BUT LUCKILY I WAS GOING THE SPEED LIMIT AND WAS AWAY FROM ANY OTHER CARS. MY KIDS WERE IN THE CAR WITH ME SO IT ADDED A LITTLE ANXIETY FOR ME. THIS HAPPENS NOW ALL THE TIME. I CALLED THE FORD DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT SOUNDED LIKE THE BREAK BOOSTER THEY ASKED FOR MY VIN SINCE THE 2013'S HAVE BEEN RECALLED. HE CHECKED IT AND SAID YES YOURS WAS RECALLED SO WE MADE THE APPOINTMENT. I DROPPED IT OFF THEN AN HOUR LATER THEY CALLED ME BACK AND SAID I AM SORRY BUT THEY HAVE NOT RECALLED THE FORD EDGE WITH MY VIN AS OF YET JUST THE VINS BEFORE MINE AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED AND TO COME PICK IT UP WHICH I DID SINCE THAT DIDN'T SEEM OK TO ME? HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN ITS THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS UNSAFE AND DEFINITELY A BIG PROBLEM THE FORD DEALERSHIPS ARE SEEING. THE FORD MANUFACTURE KNOWS OF THIS ISSUE SO I AM NOT SURE WHY THEY ARE NOT TAKING OWNERSHIP AND FIXING ALL THE CARS.
DOOR LATCH CLOSED SENSOR NOT WORKING. WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE AMONGST THOUSANDS OF FORD OWNERS. DOOR EITHER WILL NOT REGISTER AS CLOSED, OR WILL APPEAR TO HAVE COME OPEN WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON AT NIGHT, DOORS NOT TO LOCK PROPERLY, BATTERY TO DRAIN OVER NIGHT, ETC. THIS ISSUE WAS A RECALL FOR FORD SEVERAL YEARS BACK ON DIFFERENT MODELS BUT THEY ARE NOT BEING RECALLED ANYMORE AND THIS NEEDS TO BE CHANGED, IT IS A MAJOR CONCERN. FOR ME IT HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, STEADILY GETTING WORSE.
A LOUD GRINDING NOISE WHEN I BRAKE. SOUNDS LIKE IT'S COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. IT IT INTERMITTENT SO WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE NOISE.
FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS NOW SOMETIMES WHEN I PARK AND PUT THE GEAR IN PARK THE WARNING LIGHT STATING "SHIFT TO PARK" WILL COME ON EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK AND OFF. UP UNTIL ABOUT A MONTH OR SO AGO I WOULD PUSH THE GEAR FORWARD AND THE WARNING WOULD GO OFF BUT NOW I HAVE TO PLAY AROUND WITH IT (BACK AND FORTH) AND REALLY FORCE THE GEAR FORWARD BEFORE THE WARNING WILL GO AWAY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS, THE BRAKES SEIZED AND THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL SOUND WHEN ACCELERATING. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING.

MY VEHICLE FORD EGGE 2013 WHILE I AM DRIVING SHUTS DOWN AT ANY MILLEAGE
I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRES ROTATED. THEY SAID I NEEDED REAR BRAKES . APPOINTMENT WAS MADE FOR 2 DAYS LATER. WHEN I DROVE THE CAR HOME AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, THE ENGINE CHECK LIGHT CAME ON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF. I TOLD THE SERVICE ADVISOR ABOUT THE ENGINE CHECK LIGHT . IT IS STILL ON.
THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT AND CHIME WON'T TURN OFF, EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS DEFINITELY CLOSED. THE FOB WON'T OPEN THE DOOR. THE OVERHEAD COURTESY LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN THE IGNITION IS OFF BECAUSE THE ELECTRONICS INDICATE THE DOOR IS OPEN. THIS DRAINS THE BATTERY. THIS PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED AROUND 2015, WHILE THE CAR WAS IN ITS BUMPER TO BUMPER PHASE. THEY FIXED IT LICKITY SPLIT. NOW, IN ITS EXTENDED FORD WARRANTY, YOU CAN LIKELY GUESS, IT ISN'T COVERED. FOR $486 THEY CAN PUT A NEW LOCK SENSOR IN THE DOOR. GUARANTEED TO BE MY LAST FORD PRODUCT.
WHILE PUTTING ON THE BRAKES AND TURNING, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN AND STAYED LIKE THIS FOR QUITE SOME TIME. IT STILL BRAKES BUT IT PULLS TO THE RIGHT WHEN DONE SO. IT IS VERY ANNOYING, BUT IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I HEARD THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ACTION BUT WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED. THIS IS DEFINITELY A FACTORY DEFECT AND I WOULD HATE TO GET IN A COURT ACTION WITH FORD IF ANYTHING HAPPENS. THIS MYSTERY HAPPENED TWICE SO FAR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE BRAKE BOOSTER POWER SEIZED AND THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 125,000. *TT *TR
DRIVER SIDE DOOR ADJAR WARNING LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT.
WHEN PLACING VEHICLE IN PARK, WARNING INDICATES TRANSMISSION IS STILL IN DRIVE GEAR AND UNABLE TO SAFELY SHUT DOWN ENGINE. THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND OCCURS WHEN REVERSE WAS LAST DRIVE GEAR USED. FREQUENCY OF THE PROBLEM IS ABOUT 1 IN 50. EACH TIME IT IS REQUIRED TO RESTART VEHICLE AND PLACE TRANSMISSION INTO DRIVE THEN BACK TO PARK TO CORRECT. DUE TO USE OF HAND BRAKE THERE HAS BEEN NO INSTANCES OF THE VEHICLE MOVING UNCONTROLLED.
UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER AND WRENCH AND PARKING SHIFT MESSAGES SHOWN ON MY SUV DISPLAY. ON 03312018 MY FORD EDGE SPORT AWD 2013 SURPRISED ME WHEN AN UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER HAPPEN DURING AN SLOW MOTION IN A SECONDARY ROAD. UNABLE TO MANAGE MY VEHICLE I STOP AT THE NEAREST GAS STATION USING THE SLOPE BACKWARDS IN NEUTRO SHIFT UNTIL REACH THE GAS STATION BEHIND ME. THEN WHEN STOP I BEGAN TO READ VEHICLE BOOK AND SHUT DOWN THE VEHICLE AS RECOMMENDED. AFTER 30 MINS I RESTART THE VEHICLE AND THE LOSS POWER DISAPPEAR REASON WHY I DECIDE TO RETURN BACK TO MY HOME. WHEN I ENTER TO THE CONSUMER REPORT PAGE FROM MY PC AT HOME TO REQUEST INFO FOR ANY RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE I FIND OUT THAT A RECALL NUMBER EXIST FOR THIS TYPE OF SUV. THE RECALL NUMBER IS 14S10 SINCE AUGUST2014 BUT I NEVER HAS BEEN ADVISED. FEW MONTH AGO I WENT TO THE DEALER FOR A REVIEW OF A PROBLEM BUT THEY DID NOTHING AND SAID THAT THE VEHICLE WAS IN PERFECT CONDITION AVOIDING THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO TELL ME ABOUT ANY RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I STILL EXPERIMENTING THE SAME SITUATION SINCE 03312018, RISKING MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF OTHER PEOPLE IN THE ROAD AS MY SUV CONTINUES WITHOUT LOSING POWER BUT TAKEN THE PERTINENT PRECAUTION. I STILL VERY WORRY AS THE CONSUMER REPORT STATED THAT IN ADDITION THIS FAILURE MAY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO ROLL AWAY IF THE PARKING BRAKE IS NOT APPLIED DESPITE THE TRANSMISSION BEING PLACED IN PARK.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTIONED. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SLIGHTLY AND THE VEHICLE RAPIDLY LUNGED FORWARD INDEPENDENTLY. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT STRUCK THE DASHBOARD AND WAS INJURED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.
THE VEHICLE STARTED SENSING THE DOOR WAS OPEN WHEN IT WAS NOT. BECAUSE OF THIS MY SECURITY SYSTEM ACTIVATES OVER AND OVER. ON JANUARY 2, 2018 THIS HAPPENED WHILE PARKED AWAY FROM HOME AND IT DEPLETED THE BATTERY WHICH IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD. THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS NEAR ZERO DEGREES AND I WAS STRANDED FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR IN SUB ZERO TEMPERATURES. I AM 60 YEARS OLD AND SUFFER FROM DIABETES, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE AND CANCER OF THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM AND THIS BECAME A DANGEROUS, LIFE THREATENING SITUATION. SINCE JANUARY 2, 2018 MY CAR HAS REPEATEDLY RUN THE BATTERY DOWN WHEN SENSING THE DOOR OPEN AND SETTING THE ALARM SYSTEM ACTIVE, REPEATEDLY AND FOR HOURS WHEN I'M NOT AROUND. AFTER MONTHS OF THIS I DISCOVERED TODAY THAT MY HORN FAILED WHEN IN TRAFFIC AND HEAVY RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS AND I WAS UNABLE TO ALERT A CAR PULLING INTO MY RIGHT OF WAY THAT I WAS THERE. THIS GETS MORE AND MORE DANGEROUS EVERY MONTH, FROM NEARLY FREEZING TO DEATH, TO NEARLY MANGLED ON A US HIGHWAY IN NORTHWEST INDIANA SOMETHING NEEDS ADDRESSING BY FORD AS THIS SEEMS TO BE A CONSTANT PROBLEM IN THE FORD EDGE VEHICLES. THESE PROBLEMS HAVE DEVELOPED MORE OFTEN OVER THE LAST YEAR BUT I DISCOVERED THE HORN PROBLEM TODAY IN A POSSIBLY LIFE THREATENING INCIDENT AT 50 MPH IN RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS.

MY WIPERS CONSTANTLY SWIPE
ALTHOUGH MY DRIVERS SIDE DOORS IS CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT INDICATOR REMAINS ON. ALSO, WHEN I SLOW DOWN OR STOP A WARNING BEEP AND INDICATOR COMES ON TELLING ME TO SHIFT TO PARK. I ASSUME THIS IS PART OF THE SAME PROBLEM. NOT ONLY IS THIS ANNOYING BUT IT CAUSES MY INSIDE LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON, WHICH CAUSES THE BATTERY TO RUN DOWN. IN ADDITION IT IS A HAZARD AS I CANNOT LOCK MY DOORS. THIS COULD ALLOW SOMEONE TO ENTER MY VEHICLE TO DO HARM. IT ALSO, ALLOWS MY GRANDDAUGHTER TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I KNOW THAT THAT HAVE BEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS AND I FEEL YOU SHOULD DO YOUR DUTY AND PLACE A RECALL ON THIS HAZARD.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON REGARDLESS THAT DOORS ARE PROPERLY LATCHED. HAZARDS: UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS DUE TO THE FACT THAT VEHICLE BELIEVES DOOR IS OPEN. WAS RECENTLY IN A BAD AREA OF TOWN IN A PARKING LOT AND WAS UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS FOR MYSELF AND INFANT. OVERHEAD LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF BECAUSE VEHICLE BELIEVES DOOR IS OPEN. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT (ESPECIALLY WHEN BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAYS) IT IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO SEE BECAUSE THE DOME LIGHT REMAINS ON. BACK WINDOW IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT OF IN THE DARK WITH THE DOME LIGHT ON. DOME LIGHT WILL OVER GO OVER AFTER REACHING A CERTAIN SPEED. THESE ARE SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES! NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE AND NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK DOORS ARE VERY SERIOUS ISSUES! AFTER THIS MANY COMPLAINTS, FORD SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO PERFORM A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE! THIS IS NOT A $20 PART THAT NEEDS REPLACED, IT'S A $450-$500 REPAIR ISSUE THAT SOME FAMILIES DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO PAY FOR!
THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED A THROTTLE SUDDEN ACCELERATION WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45 MILES DOWN A ROAD AND SUDDENLY A THRUST OF ACCELERATION JUMPED THE VEHICLE AND THEN EVEN WHEN I PUSHED ON THE BRAKES THE CAR THRUST FORWARD SO I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND IT STOPPED, LUCKILY THERE WERE NO CARS AROUND. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS AT A RED LIGHT AND THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN I FLOORED THE BRAKE BUT STILL THE CAR WOULDN'T STOP AND THEN PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND THE CAR STOPPED.

TAMARA RECALL PASSAGER AIR BAG AT SEAM ON DASH IS COMING APART0
WE PURCHASED A FORD EDGE SPORT 2013 BRAND NEW. AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT A FEW WEEKS AFTER HE PURCHASED MY PARTNER WAS DRIVING WITH ME AND MY DAUGHTER AND HE ALMOST PASSED OUT AT THE WHEEL. WHEN I DRIVE THE VEHICLE WE GET SICK; DIZZY, HEADACHES, NAUSEA, CONGESTION, ETC. I WAS SICK FOR YEARS THOUGHT I WAS DYING. MY DAUGHTER EVEN PASSED OUT IN THE VEHICLE AND I HAD TO PULL OVER AND CALL 911. I HAVE PICKED UP FRIENDS AND THEY RODE IN THE VEHICLE AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME SYMPTOMS. I HAVE ALL THE RECORDS FROM FORD. FORD SAID THEY FIXED THE PROBLEMS, BUT WAS NEVER FIXED. IT'S 2018 AND THE ISSUE IS STILL THERE. I HAVE TO RENT CARS JUST FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. I'M SO FRUSTRATED AND LOST FOR WORDS WITH ALL OF THIS. I RECENTLY SAW THAT SOME OF THE FORD EXPLORERS DRIVERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WE HAVE EXPERIENCED. IF YOU GO ONE BLOCK IN MY CAR YOU WILL WANNA PASS OUT. PLEASE CONTACT ME I HAVE ALL THE EVIDENCE DOCUMENTS. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND HEALTH HAZARD TO US DRIVING THESE VEHICLES.
I HAVE BEEN HAVING NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LATCH ALWAYS READING THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. THERE IS NO AMOUNT OF FORCE SHUTTING THE DOOR THAT MAKES IT GO AWAY. I AM AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS THAT HAVE BEEN GOING ON WITH SEVERAL MODELS OF FORD VEHICLES. I CONSIDER THIS A HAZARD FOR SEVERAL REASONS. THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGE.FOR THE ENTIRE VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THIS, POTENTIALLY CAUSING THE DOORS TO OPEN IF THERE WERE ANY TYPE OF IMPACT. THERE IS ALSO THE RANDOM LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THAT OCCURS WHICH MAKES MY VEHICLE IMPOSSIBLE TO SECURE. I WANT TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT IN HOPES THAT FORD WILL CORRECT THIS PROBLEM FROM THEIR END AND NOT CHARGE THE CONSUMER A MINIMUM OF 500 DOLLARS PER LATCH FOR A FIX THAT HAS NOT BEEN GUARANTEED.
WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. INSIDE LIGHTS STAY ON AND RUN THE BATTERY DOWN.

RE: PE16012 I TOO AM EXPERIENCING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT. THERE ARE TWO MORE SAFETY ISSUES YOU FAIL TO CONSIDER AS WELL AS THE EXTENT OF THE PROBLEM. ONE, WHEN THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON AND THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION THE AUTO LOCK FEATURE OF THE DOORS IS LOST. ASIDE FROM THE ISSUE OF THE DOORS POTENTIALLY OPENING THERE IS THE POTENTIAL DANGER TO THE OCCUPANTS OF UNWANTED ACCESS BY UNSCRUPULOUS PEOPLE. THE SECOND ISSUE THAT WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED AND LOCKED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON RESULTING IN BATTERIES BEING WORN DOWN AND DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS STRANDED. NOT A WONDERFUL THOUGHT IN FREEZING WINTER CONDITIONS. THE FINAL POINT I WOULD MAKE IS THAT THERE WERE 1349 COMPLAINTS, NOW 1350, FILED PRIOR TO MINE. AN OLD RULE OF THUMB HAS BEEN THAT FOR EVERYONE WHO WILL TAKE THE TIME TO WRITE A LETTER OF COMPLAINT THERE ARE 10,000 MORE WHO WILL NOT. THE MATH SAYS 13,500,000. OBVIOUSLY THERE WERE NOT THIS MANY FORD EDGES SOLD IN THE 3 MODEL YEARS THIS SAFETY ISSUE HAS PRESENTED ITSELF. IN FACT THEY SOLD A LITTLE UNDER .3% OF THAT NUMBER. THAT MAKES THE RATIO OF COMPLAINTS EXTREMELY HIGH AND MUCH SERIOUSNESS MUCH GREATER. THE DATE I NOTE AT THE BOTTOM IS THE APPROXIMATE DATE THE PROBLEM STARTED.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. WHEN DRIVING AND SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP CAR BEEPS AND INDICATES TO "PUT IN PARK". WHEN CAR IS IN PARK, ENGINE OFF, KEY REMOVED AND DOOR CLOSED THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON AND DOES NOT GO OFF. THIS BEGAN IN SEPTEMBER 2017 AND CONTINUES TO THIS DAY 1/17/18.
WHILE DRIVING WE LOST ALL POWER AND THE WRENCH ICON WITH "SEE MANUAL" APPEARED ON THE DASH. THE WRENCH ICON IS A POWERTRAIN FAULT ALERT. IT'S OBVIOUSLY DANGEROUS TO LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING AND BE STUCK IN TRAFFIC AND WITH OUR CHILDREN IN THE CAR IT'S A LITTLE MORE NERVE-RACKING. PRESSING THE GAS DOES NOTHING TO THE RPMS WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THE ENGINE WAS IDLING ROUGH AND SPUTTERING. (PLENTY OF GAS IN THE CAR). CAR HAS BEEN TOWED TO THE DEALER. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR FOR THE TOW TRUCK, THE ALERT WAS GONE AND THE CAR WAS ABLE TO DRIVE. VERY STRANGE AND THE CAR CAN'T BE TRUSTED RIGHT NOW.
DOOR LATCH ACTUATOR NOT WORKING. SHOWS DOOR AJAR, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. DEFECTIVE DOOR LATCH
DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON WITH DOORS FULLY SHUT. CAN HAPPEN WHILE STATIONARY OR MOVING. DOOR LOCKS DO NOT ACTUATE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. HAS RUN BATTERY DEAD 3 TIMES. VEHICLE HAS 49,000 MILES AND IS KEPT IN GARAGE.
REAR LEFT DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON KEEPING THE COURTESY LIGHTS TO STAY ON AFTER THE CAR IS OFF CAUSING THE BATTERY TO DRAIN.
CAR SHAKING AND NO ACCELERATING WHEN GAS PEDAL ENGAGED. UNABLE TO MOVE FORWARD. VERY DANGEROUS ON THE ROAD SO I PULLED OFF. PROBLEM REPEATED THREE TIMES WITH 24 HOURS. FORD REPAIR SAID IT HAS A BAD ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY.
CAR MILEAGE 84,000. 90% CITY DRIVING 10% MOUNTAIN 1. VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN DRIVEWAY AND PREPARING TO LEAVE FOR WORK. OPENED REAR DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR, PUT ITEMS INSIDE AND CLOSED DOOR. ENTERED DRIVERS SIDE, TURNED KEY ON TO START CAR. RECEIVED RED WARNING ON DASH THAT LET PASSENGER DOOR WAS AJAR. OPENED AND SHUT DOOR AGAIN SAME WARNING. TRIED THIS 7 TIMES. INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD NOT DIM WITH DOOR AJAR WARNING, EVEN WITH DOORS CLOSED. AFTER SEVENTH TIME WARNING SUBSIDED.AND INTERIOR LIGHTS DIMMED OUT. 2. THE FOLLOWING DAY THE WIFE STOPPED FOR GAS. 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.
WARNING LIGHT SHOWS DRIVER DOOR OPEN WHEN THE DOOR IS REALLY CLOSED. THE DOME LIGHT WILL STAY ON AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE IN GEAR. THIS WILL DRAIN THE BATTERY AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK.
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
'DRIVER DOOR AJAR' NOTIFICATION IS PRESENT WHILE IN MOTION IN SPITE OF DOOR BEING CLOSED/LATCHED. DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE IN THE CAR (WHETHER IN MOTION OR STATIONARY) & ALARM CANNOT BE SET BECAUSE OF THIS. SEVERAL TIMES, THE NOTIFICATION WASN'T PRESENT ONLY TO POP UP WHILE DRIVING & DOORS UNLOCKED & WOULDN'T LOCK AGAIN. SOMETIMES NOTIFICATION GOES AWAY BUT IT'S BEEN INCREASING IN FREQUENCY THE LAST MONTH & A HALF. "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" NOTIFICATION IS PRESENT MORE OFTEN THAN NOT. SAFETY IS AN ISSUE & FRUSTRATION IS HIGH. SLAMMING THE DOOR DOESN'T WORK. SHUTTING THE DOOR LIGHTLY DOESN'T WORK. SHUTTING THE DOOR NORMALLY DOESN'T WORK. THERE'S NO RHYME OF REASON TO IT. REGARDING "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN", IT'S BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST MONTH & A HALF (BEGINNING OF SEPT UNTIL NOW) .
DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR IS INDICATED AS ALWAYS OPEN/AJAR. THE ON-DASH WARNING SHOWS UP WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED. WHEN VEHICLE IS DRIVEN IN REVERSE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN FORWARD, THE LIGHTS FADE OUT BUT THE DOORS TO NOT LOCK AUTOMATICALLY. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SITTING IN MY GARAGE, THE CONVENIENCE LIGHTS WILL RANDOMLY TURN ON. THIS STARTED HAPPENING CLOSE TO TWO YEARS AGO AND WAS INTERMITTENT. NOW IT IS VERY CONSISTENT. I USED 10/15/2017 FOR THIS REPORT SINCE I DON'T REMEMBER WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED.
DOOR LATCH DOESN'T LATCH DISABLING DOOR LOCKS AND IT IS A HAZARD. WAS TOLD NOT ON RECALL. HEAVY SMELL OF EXHAUST. WHEN FILLING GAS THE EVAP CODE COMES AND IT IS ROUGH TO START.
VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN ALL SYSTEMS, INCLUDING POWER STEERING STOPPED DURING A LEFT TURN. UPON INSPECTION, BATTERY WAS DEAD. PRIOR TO THIS, THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING INDICATOR WAS LIGHT, DESPITE THE DOOR BEING LATCHED. CERTIFIED FORD SERVICE CENTER SAID THAT THE DOOR WAS INDEED LATCHED, SO THERE WAS NO SAFETY ISSUE THERE. HOWEVER, DIDN'T INFORM THAT IT WOULD DRAIN BATTERY. OCCASIONALLY, THE VEHICLE PARKING HEADLIGHTS WOULD COME ON, ALONG WITH DOME LIGHT WHEN NOT IN OPERATION.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR SENSOR ALWAYS ON INTERIOR LIGHTS DRAINING BATTERY UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS
BATTERY DRAIN FROM SOMETHING. CAR BATTERY WILL GO DEAD FOR NO REASON. I'VE HAD TO HAVE CAR JUMP STARTED 5 TIMES IN 3 WEEKS. NO GETTING BATTERY SAVER MODE IS OFF. BATTERY WILL TEST GOOD WITH PROPER VOLTAGE. THEN IT WILL TEST AT 9 VOLTS. JUMP IT AND IT WILL BE FINE AND CHARGE. THEN IT WILL GO DEAD AGAIN. SOMETHING IS DRAINING THE BATTERY AND FORD HAS NO CLUE BUT TO SAY LET'S PUT A NEW BATTERY IN. AND THEN THE NEW BATTERY WILL GO DEAD.
DRIVERS DOOR LATCH. DOOR IS CLOSED AND DOOR AJAR ALARM STAYS ON CAUSING BATTERY DRAIN IF YOU DON'T GET IT TO GO OFF. BATTERY HAS WENT DEAD 5 TIMES BECAUSE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO IF DOOR AJAR ALARM IS ON. THIS ALSO CAUSES DOOR LOCKS NOT TO WORK. FORDS FIX IS TO SERVICE THE LATCH WITH CLEANING THAT LASTS ONLY A COUPLE MONTHS AT $250.00. TO REPLACE LATCH CAN BE IN EXCESS OF $500.00 FOR A $50.00 PART. A BATTERY CAN ONLY TAKE GOING DEAD SO MANY TIMES. BATTERY'S CAN COST WELL OVER $100.00 DOLLARS TO REPLACE.
WHEN THE PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT 1 1/2 MONTHS AGO, I WOULD BE DRIVING AND THE CAR WOULD SIMPLY BEGIN SLOWING DOWN UNTIL IT WAS STOPPED, NO MATTER HOW MUCH GAS I TRIED TO GIVE IT. AFTER THIS HAPPENING 2 TIMES AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE FUEL PUMP WAS FAULTY AND CHANGED IT. I GOT THE CAR BACK APPROX. 2 WEEKS AGO. LAST FRIDAY, 10/6/17, I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AND THE SAME THING AGAIN, EXPECT THIS TIME, THE AUTOTRAIN ERROR (A WRENCH) CAME ON, AS WELL AS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. IT STOPPED 3 TIMES ON THE WAY HOME - EACH TIME I PULLED OVER (AS WELL AS I COULD), TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RECRANKED IT. EACH TIME I WOULD TURN THE CAR OFF AND RECRANK IT, THE WARNING LIGHTS WOULD GO OFF AND THEN COME BACK ON AS SOON AS THE CAR LOST POWER AGAIN. I FINALLY GOT IT HOME. MY HUSBAND DECIDED TO PUT A NEW BATTERY IN (SINCE I'M ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS THE DOOR OPEN ALERT - ANOTHER STORY). AFTER PUTTING THE BATTERY IN, HE DROVE IT AROUND FOR 30 MINUTES OR SO WITH NO PROBLEMS. IT WORKED FINE ALL WEEKEND. THE FOLLOWING WEDN., 10/11/17, I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK AND WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WHEN IT SUDDENLY LOST POWER AGAIN - ENGINE STILL RUNNING, BUT NOTHING HAPPENING WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS AND THE AUTOTRAIN & CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I ALMOST GOT HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER, TURN IT OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A MINUTE AND THEN CAME ON TO WORK WITH NO MORE PROBLEMS. IT'S TERRIFYING NOT KNOWING WHEN IT'S GOING TO SUDDENLY LOSE POWER. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET & DISCOVERED THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE REPORTING THIS SAME PROBLEM & HAVE BEEN TOLD ITS A PROBLEM WITH THE THROTTLE BODY. I'M TAKING IT BACK TO FORD THIS EVENING. IF MORE THAN A FEW PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED THIS, THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY FORD. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ON WITH ALL DOORS CLOSED, OVERHEAD LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND AUDIBLE WARNING AS RESULT OF DEFECTIVE SWITCH OR ASSOCIATED ELECTRONIC DEVICES OR OTHER MECHANICAL COMPONENT INSTALLATION,
NOTED A HISSING SOUND WHEN DEPRESSING BRAKE PETAL, THEN A SPONGE PETAL WITH LITTLE EFFECT ON BRAKING AND FINALLY THE LOSS OF ANY BRAKE BOOSTER OR POWER BRAKE EFFECT WHILE BRAKING. DEALER SAID SOME VEHICLES HAD EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT OTHERS, LIKE MINE, MAGICALLY DID NOT!
THE PROBLEM STARTED AS JUST SOUNDING LIKE AIR PRESSURE WAS RELEASING FROM THE BREAK PEDDLE. BEFORE I COULD GET IT INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP THE BREAKS STARTED LOCKING UP IN THE BREAK PEDDLE TO WHERE I COULDN'T STOP SAFELY AND FEEL COMFORTABLE TRANSPORTING MY SELF OR MY 11 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. I ALSO IN THE SAME TWO DAYS WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND THE BREAK UNDER MY FOOT SLOWLY PUSHED UP AT A RED LIGHT 30 SECONDS OR SO, AND THEN LOCKED AND MY CAR TURNED OFF WHILE IT WAS IN GEAR. THIS, ALL APART OF THE RECALL, I'M BEING TOLD IS MY PROBLEM NOT THEIRS, BECAUSE MY CAR WAS "BORN" OR MADE ONLY 5 MONTHS AFTER THEY THOUGHT THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH TH NEW CARS BEING MANUFACTURED. I AM GOING TO FIGHT BACK AND INVESTIGATE THIS TO THE BITTER END. I WANT A SAFE CAR. IT HAS 74,000. MILES ON IT, A BREAK ISSUE IS A HUGE ISSUE. THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE IN LIFE AND DEATH.
WHILE BRAKES WERE DEPRESSED, HISSING OCCURRED FOR ABOUT 7-10 DAYS. THEN, WHILE TRAVELING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME STIFF, AND COULD BARELY STOP THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENS ON A DAILY BASIS NOW, INCLUDING NOT BEING ABLE TO STOP IN A DRIVE THROUGH, AND PASSING THE WINDOW.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR DETECTION IS FAULTING. WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED OFTEN TIMES THE DOOR IS DETECTED AS OPEN, THE ALARM KEEPS GOING. RESULT: I CAN'T LOCK THE DOORS AND THE CONSTANT ALARMS ARE VERY DISTRACTING AND ANNOYING.
THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR LIGHT IS ON BUT THE DOORS ARE SHUT TIGHT ALSO THE DOORS COME UNLOCKED WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT US TOUCHING ANY BUTTONS.
DRIVING ALONG ON FREEWAY FEEDER AND ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY DID NOT WORK AND I COULD NOT DRIVE MY CAR. HAD TO STOP AND PUT ON EMERGENCY BLINKERS. HAD TO SPEND $542.99 TO GET IT FIXED AS IT WAS NOT CONTROLLABLE. THE CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN ACCIDENT, FLOOD OR ETC.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON AND DOOR IS NOT OPEN
PURCHASED CAR JAN 2017, STARTED HAVING TROUBLES 5 MONTHS LATER + SUNROOF WON'T OPEN, THEN WHEN DOES, WON'T CLOSE. GO TO PUT IN PARK, TELLS YOU CAR ISN'T IN PARK WHEN IT IS AND SEAT WON'T MOVE! AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AT RANDOM AND STAYS ON. OF COURSE IT GOES OFF WHEN YOU TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP! LOW AIR TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON NO MATTER THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE. NO PROBLEM WITH TIRES... TRYING TO TALK TO ANYONE ON THE CARS PHONE FEATURE HASN'T WORKED SINCE WEEK 2... KEEPS DROPPING CALLS EVEN WHEN SITTING IN THE SAME PLACE WHICH IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING WHEN TALKING TO MY TRUCK DRIVER HUSBAND! HAPPENS WHETHER DRIVING OR STATIONARY! REALLY STARTING TO FEEL LIKE WE GOT STUCK WITH A LEMON HERE AND NO MONEY FOR ANOTHER CAR!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR WOULD CHIME AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTING WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR WOULD NOT LATCH CORRECTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SUNSET FORD (11700 GRAVOIS RD, ST. LOUIS, MO 63127, (314) 472-7109) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH SENSOR MALFUNCTIONED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWO YEARS LATER. UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTING WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO START THE VEHICLE AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF TO RESET THE INTERIOR LIGHTING TO TURN OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000.
WHILE DRIVING, THERE IS A SUDDEN LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, THE ENGINE LIGHT AND WRENCH LIGHT INDICATOR COME ON AND THE CAR SLOWS DOWN TO A CRAWL WITH LIMITED ACCELERATION, MORE LIKE IDLE SPEED. THE SITUATION HAPPENS 1X-2X PER WEEK. AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF AND THEN RESTARTING THE CAR WILL RUN NORMALL. THIS HAS HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES WITH NO OTHER INFLUENCES LIKE WEATHER. IT IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO BE IN THE CAR WHEN THIS SITUATION OCCURS. YOU ARE IMMEDIATELY PUT INTO UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS WITH THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE TRAFFIC ISSUES. EVEN MORE FREIGHTENIN IS YOU BECOME A TARGET TO BE IN AN ACCCIDENT IF OTHERS ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO YOU SUDDEN LOSS OF SPEED.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON, BECAUSE OF THAT INSIDE LIGHTS STAYS ALSO ON AND DRAINS MY BATTERY. (I ALREADY REPLACE BATTERY). I HATE TO BE THROWING MY DOOR TO TRY TO SHUT OFF THAT LIGHT AJAR AND THAT IT'S CAUSING A MARK ON THE OUTSIDE OF MY DOOR. I JUST BOUGHT MY EDGE LAST YEAR AND APPARENTLY A LOT OF PEOPLES ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM BUT IT'S NOT MARK AS A RECALL WHEN IT'S FACTORY FAULT. PLEASE REVIEW THE PROBLEM AND FIX IT OTHER WISE IT'S GOING TO BE A PROBLEM FOR FUTURE BUYERS, I LOVE MY EDGE BUT THIS SITUATION IT'S GETTING TO ANNOYING AND FRUSTRATING, PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM ASAP THANK YOU
DOOR AJAR SWITCH FAILED. INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF CAUSING GLARE PROBLEMS WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT. DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON RUNNING INTERIOR LIGHTS CAUSING BATTERY USAGE EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. TRYING TO OPEN AND CLOSE DOOR WHILE DRIVING TO ELIMINATE DOOR AJAR COULD CAUSE ACCIDENT. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AND FIX.
DRIVER DOOR SENSOR WILL RANDOMLY SAY THAT THE DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR. IT ALSO AUTOMATICALLY TURNS THE DOME LIGHTS ON AS PART OF THE ALERT WHICH IS IN TURN BURNING UP MY BATTERY. I AM UNABLE TO LOCK THE VEHICLE WHEN THE SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING WHICH CAUSES SAFETY ISSUE BY LEAVING MY VEHICLE UNLOCKED. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE.
REAR LIFT GATE SENSOR BROKE AT 20K.IT WOULD START TO CLOSE THEN WOULD OPEN AUTOMATICALLY. IT HAD TO BE FORCE CLOSED.IT TOOK 2 WEEKS FOR THE PART BUT BY THEN THE LIFT GATE MOTOR WAS WORN OUT TOO.I HAD TO WAIT 2 MORE WEEKS FOR THAT PART TO COMPLETELY REPAIR THE ELECTRIC LIFT GATE.AT 36K MY COLLISION WARNING SENSOR OFTEN WOULDN'T WORK WHILE DRIVING.IT STOPS THE WARNING FROM ALARMING WHEN THE CAR IN COLLISION DANGE AND IT STOPS THE CAR CRUISE CONTROL TO AUTOMATICALLY ADJUST THE CARS SPEED TO KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE. THE DEALER SAID THE BUMPER WAS DAMAGED AND THE SENSOR WAS POINTING DOWN BUT DON'T KNOW HOW THAT CAN BE WITH NO VISIBLE BUMPER DAMAGE.AT 38K MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR SENSOR ALMOST ALWAYS SAYS THE DOOR IS AJAR AS SOON AS ENTERING AND INDICATOR ILLUMINATES AND CHIMES AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON FOR A PERIOD AND THE CAR CAN'T BE LOCKED AT THIS TIME ALL WHILE DRIVING.SOMETIMES THERE IS CHIMING WITH NO INDICATOR LIGHTS TO WHAT THE PROBLEM IS WHILE DRIVING.OFTEN THE SHIFT TO PARK LIGHTS AND CHIMES WITH THE DOOR AJAR WARNING WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK AND AFTER IT IS TURNED OFF. NOW THERE ARE IS A CONSTANT WARNINGS CHIMING AND FLASHING BEFORE 39K. THE CAR CANTED BE LOCKED WHEN THE DOOR FALSELY INDICATES ITS AJAR.
I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE AND THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR REMAINS ILLUMINATED EVEN AFTER THE DOOR IS SHUT. IT WAS INTERMITTENT AT FIRST, BUT NOW THE SYSTEM ALWAYS THINKS THE DOOR IS AJAR. WHEN I LOCK IT WITH MY KEYFOB, IT LOCKS BUT THE LIGHTS STAY ON AND IT HONKS TWICE, INDICATING THAT IT THINKS A DOOR IS OPEN. THIS WILL CAUSE THE CARS INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, DRAINING THE BATTERY. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. NOT TO MENTION THE DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IT IMPEDES MY ABILITY TO DRIVE SAFELY BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE OUTSIDE AS WELL WITH LIGHTS ON INSIDE.
I BEGAN TO NOTICE A WHISTLING SOUND WHEN I STEP ON MY BRAKES AFTER STARTING BUT BEFORE MOVING. IN ADDITION THE BRAKES FELT SPONGY WHEN STOPPING. I GOOGLED THE SYMPTOMS AND CAME UP WITH FORD SERVICE BULLETIN 13N02 CONCERNING TEARS IN THE BRAKE BOOSTER MEMBRANE. THE DEALER INDICATED MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THE CAMPAIGN EVEN THOUGH IT IS A 2013 EDGE. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS SERVICE CAMPAIGN EXTENDED AS THE THERE APPEARS TO BE AFFECTED EDGES OUTSIDE THE CURRENT VIN # THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AS THOSE COVERED UNDER 13N02
I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE WHICH BEGAN EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SWITCH AT APPROXIMATELY 50K MILES. THE SWITCH WAS REPAIRED BY A FORD DEALER AT APPROXIMATELY 61K MILES AND WITHIN 6 MONTHS BEGAN TO REOCCUR. NOW A YEAR LATER AT 79K MILES IT COMES AND GOES MOST EVERYDAY IT IS DRIVEN. SOME DAYS IT IS WHEN YOU FIRST GET IN THE VEHICLE, OTHER DAYS IT MAY SUDDENLY UNLOCK THE DOORS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND SOUND THE ALARM TELLING YOU TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND CLOSE THE DOOR. THIS IS A CLEAR SAFETY HAZARD THAT FORD SHOULD BE MADE TO CORRECT. BLINDING LIGHTS AT NIGHT, DOORS THAT WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD POSES A SAFETY RISK FOR CHILDREN OPERATING DOORS AS WELL AS THE ADULT OCCUPANTS. NOT TO MENTION THE SECURITY RISK WHEN DRIVING THROUGH A QUESTIONABLE AREA AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. THE CONSTANT DISTRACTION FOR THE DRIVER AND OCCUPANTS ANYTIME YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE FROM THE AUDIBLE ALERT TELLING YOU TO PLACE THE CAR IN PARK AND CLOSE THE DOOR. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT APPEARS WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNTIL ENOUGH PEOPLE DIE. IT HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE FOR YEARS AND STILL NO RECALL. ALL AT THE RISK OF THE VICTIMS THAT BOUGHT THESE CARS FROM FORD. WHY SHOULD THE OWNERS OF THE VEHICLES BE FORCED TO PAY FORD TO REPAIR THESE DEFECTIVE COMPONENTS EVERY 6-12 MONTHS. WHY SHOULD THE PUBLIC BE EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF CRASHES FROM THE DISTRACTION AND PEOPLE HAVING TO REPEATEDLY SLAM THEIR DOORS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD TO TRY AND SATISFY THE DEFECTIVE SWITCHES? THE NHTSA NEEDS TO FORCE FORD TO DEVELOP A PERMANENT FIX FOR THIS ISSUE BEFORE KIDS FALL OUT OF A MOVING VEHICLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD EXHIBITED FRACTURES AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG AREA, WHICH CAUSED THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG TO BE EXPOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. A LOCAL UNKNOWN DEALER WAS CONTACTED. THE DASHBOARD WAS NOT REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000.
A WARNING PANEL DECLARING THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS AJAR COMES UP WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR WHETHER WE ARE DRIVING OR STATIONARY. ALSO, ANOTHER PANEL DIRECTS ME TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. WHEN THE DOOR IS AJAR THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON WHICH IS DANGEROUS AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT DIMINISHES VISIBILITY. IT IS A SAFETY DEFECT.
HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH THIS SPECIFIC MODEL AND YEAR ARE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE OF THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR GOING OUT. SOME PEOPLE SAY IT IS HAPPENING REPEATEDLY EVEN AFTER REPAIR. FORD HASN'T RECALLED IT THOUGH, AND IT IS COSTING AS MUCH AS $750 FOR CONSUMERS. MINE HAS BEEN OUT SINCE JUST AFTER BUYING THE CAR. THE FACT THAT THE REPAIRS ARE NOT EVEN WORKING PERMANENTLY IS A BIGGER ISSUE TOO. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED BY FORD. THIS IS A CONSTANT ISSUE REGARDLESS OF MOTION. STATIONARY VEHICLES AND MOVING VEHICLES ALIKE ARE SHOWING THIS ISSUE.
CLICKING BUT NOT STARTING
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY EXCESSIVE FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT HAD TO USE THE AUTOMATIC GEAR SHIFTER IN ORDER TO DOWNSHIFT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KEN GRODY FORD (6211 BEACH BLVD, BUENA PARK CA 90621, (714) 521-3110) AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED DUE TO THE DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR FEES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CALLED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE ISSUE WOULD BE ESCALATED TO KEN GRODY FORD. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,700.
THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT STAYS ON AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR. PER SOCIAL MEDIA IT IS A KNOWN AND COMMON PROBLEM. BECAUSE THE ESTIMATE FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND REPLACEMENT (QUOTED BY FORD DEALERSHIP) OF A FAULTY SWITCH IN THE DOOR IS APPROXIMATELY $525.00, THERE ARE SOCIAL MEDIA SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO DISABLE THE SWITCH (CUTTING A WIRE, ETC.). DISABLING THE SWITCH COULD CAUSE A SAFETY HAZARD. I THINK A RECALL SHOULD IS IN ORDER. MY VEHICLE (2013 FORD EDGE) HAS 29,300 MILES ON IT. THE PROBLEM FIRST STARTING OCCURRING IN AUG. 2017 AND HAS STEADILY GOTTEN WORSE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE SHIFTING INTO PARK, A "SHIFT TO PARK" MESSAGE APPEARED AND A BEEPING SOUND WAS HEARD. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE INTERIOR LIGHTING AND INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING REMAINED ILLUMINATED AFTER EXITING THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO RE-ENTER THE VEHICLE, RESTART THE VEHICLE, AND SHIFT THE GEAR SHIFTER SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL THE MESSAGE AND INTERIOR LIGHTING TURNED OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC OR DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED THE FAILURE ONLINE AND FOUND OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 55,000.
TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND JERKING. ENGINES REVS HIGH WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT. I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET WHEN THIS PROBLEM STARTED. I BARELY MADE IT THRU SEVERAL INTERSECTIONS TO A SAFE LOCATION. THE CAR IS UNDRIVABLE AND TOWED TO DEALER ON 8/14/2017. FORD CASE NUMBER 19010926. CSM JUDY RIZZO. NO ONE FROM FORD WILL TALK TO ME OR RETURN MY PHONE CALLS.
DOOR WON'T STAY LOCKED WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION. I HAVE SMALL CHILDREN AND THE DOORS WON'T LOCK WHEN I'M DRIVING. DOOR ALARM KEEPS GOING OFF, SHOWING THAT DOOR ISN'T LATCHED PROPERLY.
13N02 HAS ALREADY BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS SAME ISSUE ON MY SAME MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE; NAMELY THE BRAKE BOOSTER. HOWEVER, MY VIN WAS NOT VALID FOR THE AGREED UPON 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY/ONE TIME LABOR & MATERIAL REPAIR PROGRAM. OUR VEHICLE HAS EXPERIENCED A BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE AT 32288 MILES. PREMATURE FAILURE AND WHAT MY FAMILY CONSIDERS A SAFETY RISK. SOFT PEDAL RESULTS WHEN PUMPING THE BRAKES ON JUST THE SECOND PUSH DOWNWARD.
9/1/17, I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE FREEWAY. THE CAR LOST POWER BUT I WAS ABLE TO LIMP OUT OF TRAFFIC. HERE IS THE UNSAFE THING'.. WHILE COMING TO A STOP THE ACCELERATOR SURGED TWO OR THREE TIMES FORCING ME TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE TO KEEP IT FROM ACCELERATING FURTHER. THE ENGINE RPMS WENT FROM IDLE (APPROX. 600RPM) TO 3000RPM WHILE MY FOOT WAS PRESSING ONLY ON THE BRAKE AND THE WRENCH SYMBOL DISPLAYED ALONGSIDE THE SPEEDO. 15 MINUTES LATER, IT HAPPED AGAIN. I LOST ALL ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, THE WRENCH DISPLAYED, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WHILE STOPPING, THE CAR SURGED FORWARD AND FORCED ME TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL TO CONTROL IT WHILE PRESSING THE BRAKE. IF THERE WAS ANYONE INFRONT OF ME, I WOULD HAVE SURGED AND REAR-ENDED THEM CAUSING DAMAGE OR INJURY. THERE IS A LOT OF HISTORY ON THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODIES AND THEIR ELECTRICAL CONNECTION PROBLEMS IN THE EDGE, ESCAPE, EXPLORER, AND MUSTANGS. PLEASE GET THIS MAKE MODEL INCLUDED IN A RECALL.
AUGUST 31, 2017: TRAVELING 80MPH (WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL, IN LEFT HAND LANE THAT HAD NO SHOULDER), ENGINE SUDDENLY LOST POWER, DROPPED BELOW IDLE SPEED, & RUNNING ROUGH. MANAGED TO LIMP CAR TO RIGHT SHOULDER WITHOUT INCIDENT! INFO SYSTEM DISPLAYED A "YELLOW WRENCH" "SEE OWNER'S MANUAL." HAS OCCURRED 4 TIMES PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT UNDER 40 MPH. ENGINE DIED COMPLETELY ONE TIME WITH "LOW OIL PRESSURE" MESSAGE. EVERYTHING HAS BEEN CHECKED. NO CODES & OIL SYSTEM IS FINE. HAVE DISCOVERED ON LINE THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THROTTLE BODY ACROSS SEVERAL FORD MODELS. THE SECOND TIME THIS FAILED WAS RIGHT AFTER MAKING A TURN. THIS LAST INCIDENT WHICH HAS BROUGHT ME HERE TO LODGE A COMPLAINT, WAS VERY SCARY AND COULD HAVE CAUSED MAJOR LOSS OF LIFE. WHY ARE THERE NO RECALLS! I HAVE JUST FOUND A CALIFORNIA CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT REGARDING FORD THROTTLE DECELERATION DEFECT. AFTER EACH INCIDENT THE CAR RESTARTS & RUNS NORMAL. I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT GOING TO QUIT!
DOOR AJAR WILL NOT GO OFF, BECAUSE IF THIS THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK, INTER LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF.HEATS UP INTER LIGHT AREA, DRAINS BATTERY.
1. THE 'DOOR AJAR' SENSOR IS TELLING THE CAR THAT THE DOOR IS ALWAYS OPEN. AS A RESULT, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON ALL THE TIME, WHICH CAUSES VISIBILITY ISSUES WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. IT ALSO LEAVES THE LIGHTS ON EVEN AFTER THE ENGINE IS TURNED OFF AND DOORS ARE LOCKED, WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY, AND HAS CAUSED MY WIFE TO BE STRANDED A COUPLE OF TIMES. WE REPLACED THE SWITCH AND A YEAR LATER, WE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. OUR DAUGHTER OFTEN DRIVES THE CAR TO COLLEGE AT NIGHT AND HAS BEEN STRANDED AT LEAST TWICE AFTER GETTING OUT OF CLASS AT 10 PM. THIS PROBLEM HAS GONE BEYOND A NUISANCE AND IS NOW A SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I CALLED FORD DEALER TO COMPLAIN AGAIN, THEY TOLD ME THEY CAN FIX IT, BY REPLACING THE SWITCH ASSEMBLY ON THE DOOR LOCK, FOR $400. SO FAR, THIS SENSOR HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE IN 4 YEARS AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. 2. OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS, THE LIGHT FOR "SHIFT TO PARK" COME ON RANDOMLY. MOST OFTEN, IT IS WHEN MY WIFE IS STOPPED AT THE LIGHT. THE MOMENT SHE TAKES HER FEET OFF THE BREAK, THE LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON UNTIL SHE STEPS ON THE GAS AND THE CAR STARTS TO MOVE. WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND ANY PROBLEMS. RIGHT AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP, AT THE STOP LIGHT, THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AGAIN. WE TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IF WE WANTED THEM TO LOOK AT IT, THEY WILL HAVE TO CHARGE US ANOTHER $140 FOR THE TESTS. EITHER THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING OR THEY HAVE A GOOD SCAM GOING. THEY CHARGE PEOPLE AND TELL THEM THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, AND HAVE THEM BRING IT BACK AGAIN FOR ANOTHER CHARGE.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH SENSOR INDICATING DOOR AJAR FAILED AND THE ENTIRE DOOR LATCH HAD TO BE REPLACED.
LOAD HISSING SOUND WHILE PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL AND FEELS SPONGY. WHILE DRIVING, ESPECIALLY WHEN TRYING TO COME TO A FULL STOP, THE PEDAL MUST BE FORCIBLY SLAMMED TO THE FLOOR OR THE VEHICLE WILL CONTINUE TO TRAVEL. THE DEALER CONFIRMED I HAVE A FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTER. FORD HAS ALREADY RECALLED THE BRAKE BOOSTER ON 2013 EDGE MODELS MANUFACTURED UNTIL MARCH 2013. MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN JULY 2013.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AND PASSING OTHER VEHICLES, THE CONTACT NOTICED A STRONG ODOR OF EXHAUST FUMES INSIDE THE VEHICLE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JACKY JONES FORD OF HAYESVILLE (1493 US-64, HAYESVILLE, NC 28904, 828-389-6325), BUT COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN SUGGESTED THAT THE SOURCE OF THE ODOR COULD BE THAT THE REAR SPOILER WAS HOLDING EXHAUST FUMES. THE REAR SPOILER WAS RESEALED WITH SEALANT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ISSUE PERSISTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER. THE SERVICE MANGER WAS ADVISED BY THE FORD CORPORATE OFFICE TO SEAL ALL THE HOLES, ESPECIALLY BY BOLTS WHERE ANY ODOR COULD ENTER THE VEHICLE FROM UNDERNEATH. THE HOLES WERE SEALED, BUT FUMES STILL ENTERED THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED MANY TIMES BY THE CONTACT, BUT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 19,905.*BF *JS
IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS MY FORD EDGE HAS SHUT DOWN 6 TIMES AND GOES TO LUMP MODE. AFTER PULING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTING VEHICLE EVERYTHING IS FINE THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING AND AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS SO FAR I HAVE AVOIDED HAVING AN ACCIDENT BUT ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME.I HAVE CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE WITH NO HELP I HAVE TAKEN IT TO FORD FOR SERVICE AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOT ANY CODES IN SYSTEM AND WITHOUT THEM THERE ISN'T ANYTHING THEY CAN DO. AFTER DOING RESEARCH THERE ARE MULTIPLE REPORTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESSED THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT
YOU CAN BE DRIVING AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON WHICH TURNS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON MAKING DRIVING AT NIGHT VERY DIFFICULT DUE TO THE UNEXPECTED LIGHTING THAT REDUCES VISIBILITY GREATLY AT AN INSTANCE. ALSO IT MAY TAKE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS CLOSING THE DOOR TO GET THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO GO OUT CAUSING ONE TO WONDER IF THE DOOR IS TRULY CLOSED OR NOT.
PTU LEAKING AND GOING OUT. WHEN YOU DRIVE YOU GET A SMELL LIKE PROPANE. INSIDE THE CAR. MAKE A GRINDING NOISE AFTER YOU STOP AND THEN START MOVING AGAIN. THIS WILL SHUT DOWN THE VEHICLE AND STOP IT INSTANTLY. VERY DANGEROUS. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT ON THIS. PLEASE HELP MANY PEOPLE SO WE CAN GET THI SAFETY PROBLEM FIXED SO IT DOES HURT MORE PEOPLE.
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS VEHICLE FAILS TO START. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START ENGINE IT WILL TURN OVER BUT NOT FIRE. TURNING SWITCH OFF THEN ATTEMPTING TO START ENGINE AGAIN USUALLY RESULTS IN THE ENGINE STARTING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT DOES NOT MATTER IF THE ENGINE IS HOT OR COLD, BRAND OF GAS USED OR LENGTH OF TIME OR MILES DRIVEN. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT TWICE. THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM.
DRIVER'S DOOR FALSELY INDICATING AJAR. FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS AT 29K MILES AND LOCAL FORD DEALER CLEANED IT PER TSB 15-0013 AND THE SYSTEM WORKED FINE FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. ISSUE WOULD REOCCUR SPORADICALLY FOR VARYING DURATION. IT IS NOW A DAILY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND IS "NOT A WARRANTY ITEM". THIS ISSUE PRESENTS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AS THE INTERIOR LIGHT COMES ON AS IF THE DOOR WAS OPENED CAUSING REDUCED VISIBILITY AS WELL AS REMOVING FOCUS FROM THE ROAD TO MANUALLY OVERRIDE THE INTERIOR LIGHTING SYSTEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE HEATER DID NOT WORK WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (SETHWABLEY CHEVROLET IN ADA, OK) WHERE THE SOFTWARE WAS RESETTLED. THE FAILURE RECURRED A YEAR LATER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 39,000.
DOOR AJAR MESSAGE CONSISTENTLY ON, ISSUE US IN LATCH CAUSING CONSISTENT MESSAGE AND DOME LIGHTS ON.
2013 FORD EDGE WITH 82,638 MILES, YELLOW WARNING LIGHT CAME ON INDICATING, " CHECK FUEL FILL INLET" I HAVE TRIED NUMEROUS TIME OPENING AND CLOSING THE GAS CAP COVER WITH NO RESULTS. MY SUV CAME WITH NO GAS CAP. PROBLEM CONTINUE TO PERSIST EVEN WHEN CAR IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WRENCH WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED AND THE VEHICLE HAD A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED TO RESET THE CODE. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT THERE WAS NO RECALL TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.
THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON MY FORD EDGE STAY ON AT ALL TIMES WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED ON. THIS CAUSED MY WINDSHIELD WIPER TO FLY OFF AND BREAK. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND VERY DISTURBING WHILE DRIVING. I HAD TO PUT A TOWEL ON THE METAL PART TO GO BACK HOME TO KEEP THE METAL FROM SCRAPING AND RUINING MY WINDSHIELD.
TRAVELLING AT 70 MPH ON FREEWAY, YELLOW WRENCH SHOWS AND VEHICLE SLOWS DOWN TO 2-5 MPH VERY QUICKLY. UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OR STEER. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FORD NEEDS TO RECTIFY. TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND NO ERROR CODES OR RECURRING PROBLEM AT DEALERSHIP. THIS IS ALSO A PROBLEM AS HOW DO YOU HAVE A MASSIVE DECELERATION AND WARNING LIGHTS WITHOUT AN ERROR CODE REGISTERING.
I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE SET A 70 MPH. I FELT THE CAR JERK AND LOOKED DOWN TO SEE THE ORANGE WRENCH IN THE CONTROL PANEL. THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY LOST POWER AND ACCELERATION. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE TO THE SHOULDER/COASTING TO GET OFF A VERY LARGE BRIDGE. DURING THIS PROCESS I ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND TRY TO RESTART IT AND IT WOULD NOT. ONCE I GOT THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER, I PLACED IT IN PARK AND TURNED IT COMPLETELY OFF. AFTER A MINUTE OR TWO I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT STARTED FINE AND RAN FINE THE REST OF THE WAY TO MY EXIT...WHICH WAS ABOUT 37 MILES. (I DID NOT USE THE CRUISE AGAIN) I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO O'REILLYS FOR THEM TO CHECK THE CODE AND THERE WAS NOT ANYTHING ACTIVE OR INACTIVE. THE ALSO CHECKED MY BATTERY, ALTERNATOR AND STARTER AND FOUND THOSE TO BE IN PERFECT CONDITION. I'VE ONLY OWNED THE CAR 30 DAYS SO I WILL BE CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR
NOISE STARTED COME FROM MY DRIVER SIDE TIRE. STARTED TO JEFT WHILE MOVING FROM IDLE. TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT WAS THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT. CAR ONLY HAS 81,500 MILES ON IT. LOOKED AROUND AND IT SEEMS THIS IS A VERY COMMON COMPLAINT WITH THIS MODEL CAR. AS FOUND HERE HTTP://GOTACLASSACTION.COM/15796-2/
UNSAFE ELECTRIC ISSUES, VERY CONCERN.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED. FORD ISSUED A LETTER COVERING THIS DEFECT EARLIER, BUT REFUSED TO REPAIR OR PAY FOR REPAIR. SITUATION WAS DANGEROUS, AND I HAD IT REPAIRED FOR $591.05. PLEASE HELP ME OBTAIN REIMBURSEMENT. BRAKES WOULD LOOSE POWER.
HAD THE CAR FOR A YEAR AND NEVER A PROBLEM UNTIL NOW. MY 2013 FORD EDGE HAS 43,000 ON IT. MY CAR WILL NOT START (BATTERY IS GOOD). SOMETIMES WILL CLICK BUT NOT START. SOMETIMES IT STRUGGLES TO START. SOMETIMES IT STARTS, RATTLES AND THEN SHUTS OFF BY ITSELF. I HAVE READ HORROR STORIES OF THIS PARTICULAR YEAR OF THE FORD EDGE. PEOPLE LOSING POWER OF CAR ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS, CUTTING OFF UNEXPECTEDLY!!! I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY CAR. I HAVE 4 KIDS WHO OFTEN ARE IN MY CAR WITH ME ESPECIALLY NOW THAT IT'S SUMMER TIME. AFTER READING COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND WORST, IT'S TIME FOR FORD TO RECALL ALL THESE CARS AND FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED AND THEY HAVE MAJOR LAWSUIT SINCE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED TIME AND TIME AGAIN. I LOVED MY CAR UNTIL I READ ALL THE PROBLEMS AND COMPLAINTS. I WANT TO GET RID OF IT NOW BUT OWE TOO MUCH STILL ON IT. SO FIX THE PROBLEM FORD!!!!! NOW.....
POTENTIAL EARLY TIRE FAILURE. THIS TIRE LINE (FEDERAL COURAGIA XUV) IS FIRST MANUFACTURED IN SEPTEMBER 2015, AND ALL FOUR OF MINE HAVE DISPLAYED NOTICEABLE RUBBER CRACKING IN THE TIRE BODY AREA (DOWN INSIDE THE TREAD GROOVES). FORD DEALER AND TIRE DEALER HAVE BOTH STATED THIS IS VERY PREMATURE CONDITION AND ADVISED TIRE REPLACEMENT.
TL* THE CONTACT'S WIFE OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED TO THE NHTSA HOTLINE AND NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.
DRIVER'S DOOR SWITCH FAILED. CONTINUOUSLY RECEIVE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME WHEN VEHICLE IS NOT MOVING OR MOVING SLOW.
SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE ENGINE AND ALL SYSTEMS SHUTS DOWN WHILE GOING 50 MILES AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY. HAVE TO COAST TO A STOP AND RESTART. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 2 OCCASIONS IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. I'M GOING TO GET MYSELF KILLED IN THIS THING. ALSO REAR BACK UP CAMERA IMAGE UPSIDE DOWN WHEN IT DOES APPEAR AND DRIVER DOOR INDICATOR ALARM IS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLEARLY SHUT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO DEALER TO NO AVAIL. THEY WERE TO CONTACT THE FACTORY BUT NEVER GOT BACK WITH ME ON THE CLEAR ELECTRICAL COMPUTER MALFUNCTIONS OF THIS VEHICLE.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT. AT FIRST AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES THE LIGHT WOULD GO OUT, NOW THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON.
DRIVERS DOOR STATES DOOR AJAR WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. THE LOCKS WILL NOT WORK ON ANY OF THE DOORS WHEN THIS OCCURS. ANY ONE CAN JUMP IN THE CAR WHEN STOPPED. IF KIDS ARE IN THE BACK SEAT, THEY ARE ABLE TO OPEN THE DOORS WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. WHEN LEAVING THE CAR WE CANNOT LOCK THE VEHICLE, BELONGINGS AND PETS CAN BE STOLEN. ALMOST $500 TO FIX THIS COMMON SAFTEY ISSUE.
THE 2013 FORD EDGE DOOR AJAR KEEPS LIGHTING UP SAYING THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN THE DOOR IS CLEARLY SHUT. THE MAJOR PROBLEM IS THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR WON'T TURN OFF AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. REPEATED SLAMMING OF DOOR DOESN'T RELEASE DOOR AJAR SENSOR. DOOR AJAR WILL COME ON DURING OPERATION OF VEHICLE. INTERIOR LIGHT REMAIN ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON DRAINING THE BATTERY CAUSING 2ND TIME IN THREE MONTHS IVE CHANGED THE BATTERY.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. FORD FIXED AT AROUND 38,000 MILES NOW IT HAS COME BACK. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD DO THE CHEAP FIX AND IT WOULD RETURN AND THAT HAS BEEN THE CASE NOW I AM OUT OF WARRANTY. FORD THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. IF THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AT NIGHT OR DOORS WONT LOCK THIS IS A HUGE LIABILITY. ALSO ITS SETS OFF THE ALARM AND DRAINS MY BATTERY.
PARKING DOESN'T ENGAGE AT TIMES. I GET A MESSAGE "SHIFT TO PARK".
I WAS SLOWLY TURNING RIGHT INTO A GAS STATION WHEN MY VEHICLE DIED. THE STEERING FROZE AND NOTHING WORKED. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO THE GAS STATION WHERE I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURNED IT OFF, AND THEN BACK ON. IT STARTED FINE. IF I HAD BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY, I WOULD BE DEAD!!!! THIS IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS!!!!
CAR DOOR IS SHUT AND ALERTS THAT DRIVER DOOR IS OPEN WHEN NOT MOVING AND DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. DOME LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF, CAN'T LOCK DOOR WITH KEY PAD ON DOOR. ALARM CONTINUES TO GO OFF THAT DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT'S NOT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT ONLY HAPPENED OCCASIONALY IN MAY, NOW TODAY 7/17/17 IT WILL NOT GO OFF, SHOWS DOOR IS AJAR ALL TIME!
THE BRAKES HAVE FAILED ON ME 3 TIMES NOW, THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS BAD AND REPLACED IT THE FIRST TIME, THE SECOND TIME CLAIMS IT WAS A BAD PISTON INSIDE THE BREAK BOOSTER. THE BRAKES FAILED ONCE WHEN A CAR PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES, THE SECOND TIME WAS DRIVING NORMALLY AND THE THIRD TODAY AFTER THE FRONT TIRES LOST TRACTION IN WET GRASS. THIS MAKES IT TO WERE YOU HAVE TO PUSH THE PEDDLE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND HOPE THE CAR COMES TO A STOP.THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON EVERY TIME YOU ACCELERATE TO HARD (LIKE ENTERING AN INTERSTATE) THEN WILL GO AWAY AFTER A FEW DAYS. THE CODE THAT POPS UP FOR IT IS TURBO/SUPER CHARGER UNDER BOOST. THIS MAKES THE CAR REALLY SLUGGISH AND HARD TO GET UP TO SPEED.
2ND TIME IN MONTH THIS VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD IN PERFECT ROAD CONDITIONS. JUNE 17TH 2017 AND JULY 16TH 2017 MY VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WITH A PICTURE OF A WRENCH. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD THAT WILL GET SOMEONE KILLED AND HAS BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED. MUST FIX ASAP
I HAVE A STRONG SMELL OF GAS FUMES INSIDE MY CAR WHILE DRIVING
ON 6-22-17 I PURCHASED THE FORD EDGE FROM TOWN AND COUNTRY TOYOTA. LESS THAN A WEEK LATER THE CAR COMPUTER INDICATOR CONSISTENTLY BEGAN TO DENOTE DOOR AJAR. THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT REMAINED FOR 4 DAYS. ON 7-13-2017 WHILE DRIVING ON BUSY STREET IN CHARLOTTE NC AROUND 4:30 PM IN THE AFTERNOON THE FORD EDGE COMPUTER SYSTEM FLASHES THAT THE OIL PRESSURE IS LOW. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS INFORMATION WAS PLACED ON THE CAR COMPUTER SCREEN THE BREAKS LOCKED, THE STEERING LOCK AND THE CAR STOPS WHILE IN TRANSITION WITH NO WARNING AND I AM SITTING UNDERNEATH THE GREEN LIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION ON THE STREET.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED AT 65,375 MILES. FORD HAS ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON BRAKE BOOSTERS, INCLUDING 2013 MODELS, HOWEVER I WAS TOLD MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AFTER THE MANUFACTURE DATES OF CARS INCLUDED IN THE WARRANTY - SO THERE WAS NO WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR THIS $891.82 REPAIR. THE BRAKE RESPONSE ON MY CAR WOULD INTERMITTENTLY BECOME VERY STIFF (HARD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL) AND DIFFICULT TO BRAKE. THIS OCCURRED IN VARIOUS PLACES - INCLUDING STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN BEFORE TURNING ONTO A VERY BUSY STREET, AND AT INTERSECTIONS. A LITTLE HISSING NOISE COULD BE HEARD WHILE BRAKING, AS WELL. THIS UNPREDICTABLE RESISTANCE TO BRAKING EFFORTS CREATED A DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITION. I HAVE READ MANY ACCOUNTS OF OTHER DRIVERS WHOSE BRAKES ALSO DEPRESSED COMPLETELY, WITHOUT SATISFACTORY BRAKING, DUE TO THIS DEFECTIVE BRAKE BOOSTER. I WAS TOLD THAT THE BOOSTER INSTALLED ON MY CAR WAS NOT DEFECTIVE, BUT I AM CONVINCED IT WAS, AS WELL AS THE OTHERS THAT HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. I FEEL STRONGLY THAT THIS SHOULD BE A FORD RECALL ISSUE, RATHER THAN BEING ADDRESSED AS A WARRANTY ITEM, DUE TO THE DANGER OF OPERATING A VEHICLE WITH A DEFECTIVE BRAKING SYSTEM (DUE TO FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTER DESIGN), AND I BELIEVE MY CAR WAS BUILT WITH A FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTER. I WAS TOLD MY CAR WAS BUILT WITH A FORD MOTORCRAFT BRAKE BOOSTER (MOTORCRAFT PART #2005(BRB-47, FORD PART #BA1Z2005A). THE REPLACEMENT BOOSTER INSTALLED TO REPLACE THE FAILED BOOSTER WAS THE SAME NUMBER.
7/9/17 BRAKE PEDAL ON MY 2013 FORD EDGE WENT TO THE FLOOR WHILE MAKING A SUDDEN STOP ALMOST REAR ENDING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. BRAKE PEDAL MADE A SOUND LIKE A BALLOON DEFLATING AS IT WENT TO THE FLOOR. EVEN IN PARK THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD TRAVEL TO THE FLOOR MAKING THE SOUND OF A DEFLATING BALLOON. TOOK THE CAR TO THE SHOP AND WAS DIAGNOSED AS A BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE COSTING ME $630. MILEAGE IS 46,000
NO BRAKES.. CAR IS 4 YEARS OLD WITH ONLY 58,000 MILES AND BRAKE BOOSTER HAD TO BE REPLACED.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON WHILE THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED AND SEATED. FORD STATES THAT THE LATCH HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $465. MULTIPLE OTHER PROFESSIONAL OPINIONS HAVE STATED THAT THE LATCH IS UNNECESSARY AND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINING ON AFTER CLEANING VARIOUS PARTS, REPLACING PARTS, AND SPENDING LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY ON PATCH FIXES. THE LIGHT CAME ON INTERMITTENTLY APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH AGO AND GRADUALLY STAYED ON AS TIME PROGRESSED. ORIGINALLY, I COULD CLOSE THE OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR UP TO 3 TIMES AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WOULD TURN OFF. OVER TIME THE LIGHT WOULD CONTINUALLY STAY ON. THIS BEGAN TO DRAIN THE VEHICLE BATTERY AS WELL.
BUILT ONLINE NOVEMBER 2012 AND DELIVERED TO SEARCY AR APRIL 22, 2013 NOW WITH MILEAGE 120,000 BRAKES HISSING TOLD IT IS POWER BRAKE BOOSTER WHICH WAS RECALLED BUT ENDED ON MARCH 2013 BUT MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT BY THEN AND BEING DELIVERED SO WHY NOT BE PART OF THE RECALL??? PLEASE SEE YOUR RECORDS ON THIS. BEING REPAIRED MCCLUNG FORD MOUNTAIN VIEW AR WANTING PAYMENT FROM ME.
THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED AT AROUND 40,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY WITH PRESSURE APPLIED TO THE BRAKE THE CAR SLOWS BUT THEN WHEN I APPLY ADDITIONAL PRESSURE TO STOP THE BRAKE IS HARD AND ROLLS TO A STOP INSTEAD OF STOPPING WHERE IT SHOULD. IF I AM PARKING IT WILL ALMOST ROLL INTO THE CAR PARKED IN FRONT. DEALERSHIP SAID THE BOOSTER IS GONE.
WHEN PUTTING THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AFTER DRIVING IT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE CAR IS IN PARK. THE VEHICLE IS IN FACT IN PARK AND WILL NOT MOVE, BUT THE PARK INDICATOR LIGHT WILL NOT LIGHT UP AND THE CAR WILL NOT SHUT OFF UNTIL 20 SECONDS TO SEVERAL MINUTES WHEN IT FINALLY FIGURES OUT THAT IT IS IN PARK.
2013 FORD EDGE , THE DOOR LATCH SWITCH, NOT WORKING PROPERLY, CAUSING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO STAY ON AND ALSO THE INSIDE LIGHTS, THE DOOR AJAR ALARM SOUNDS , SIGNALING THAT A DOOR IS OPEN WHEN THEY ARE CLEARLY ALL CLOSED, ON ONE INSTANCE THE BATTERY WAS DEAD REQUIRING ME TO GET A JUMP START. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL, AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM NO MATTER IF YOU ARE PARKED OR DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 95
DOOR LATCH SENSOR INDICATED DOOR OPENED (LEFT REAR), TURNING ON CABIN LIGHTS AND STARTLING DRIVER. HAD TO MAKE EMERGENCY STOP TO IDENTIFY CAUSE. PROBLEM KEEPS REPEATING.
I HAVE A FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT THAT IS ON. IT CAME ON JUST AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. AS TIME WENT ON, IT CAUSED MY BATTERY TO GO DEAD LEAVING MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER STRANDED. AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY I DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS IS UNFORTUNATELY A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THAT FORD IS UNWILLING TO ADDRESS. I ALSO DETERMINED THAT I NEEDED TO REMOVE THE DOME LIGHT FUSE TO DISABLE THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS FROM STAYING ON AND CAUSING ANOTHER BATTERY FAILURE. CHECKING WITH THE FORD DEALERSHIP, I FOUND TO REPAIR THE WOULD COST ME $385.00, AND THAT THE PROBLEM HAS NO RECALL. THIS CONDITION IN MY OPINION IS DANGEROUS, NOT ONLY DOES IT CAUSE THE BATTERY TO EVENTUALLY FAIL, BUT IF YOU REMOVE THE DOME LIGHT FUSE, IT CAUSES THE DOOR LOCKS NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK, SO YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY LOCK EACH DOOR AND THE HATCH, BECAUSE WHEN THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION, THE DOOR LOCKS WON'T LOCK. ALSO, YOU HAVE NO INTERIOR LIGHTNING AT NIGHT WHEN YOU OPEN THE DOORS, PLUS YOU LOSE THE LIGHTING ABILITY ON THE STEERING WHEEL COMPONENTS. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE THAT FORD NEEDS TO STEP UP AND ADDRESS. EVERYONE THAT I HAVE SPOKEN WITH THAT HAS AN EDGE, HAS HAD ONE OF THESE SENSORS PROBLEMS ON AT LEAST ONE OR MULTIPLE DOORS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT FORD IS MORE THAN AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT DOESN'T CONSIDER IT RECALL WORTHY. I REALLY THOUGHT MORE OF FORD MOTOR COMPANY THAN THIS, BUT I GUESS I WAS WRONG
DRIVERS "DOOR AJAR WARNING" DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AND ALARM RINGS BUT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. SECOND REPLACEMENT OF DOOR LATCH IN 100,000 MILES NEEDED. MOVING OR STOPPED ANY ROAD.
THE DOOR AJAR WARNING CONTINUOUSLY COMES ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND LOCKED. THIS CAUSES THE BATTERY TO DRAIN AND THE ALARM TO GO OFF AT RANDOM TIMES. THE ONLY WAY TO DEACTIVATE IS BY SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT MULTIPLE TIMES.
THE ENGINE WILL NOT START WHEN THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE IS HIGH (105+ DEGREES). DURING THE HEAT OF THE DAY, ENGINE WILL NOT START (NO CLICKING, NO SOUNDS, NOTHING). RADIO COMES ON, AIR COMES ON, I AM ABLE TO CHANGE GEARS, ROLL DOWN WINDOWS, ETC. THERE ARE NO ISSUES IN THE MORNING OR EVENING WHEN THE DAY IS COOLER. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DOES COME ON ONLY WHEN I AM HAVING THE ISSUE. ONCE CAR EVENTUALLY STARTS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON. VEHICLE WAS NOT IN MOTION AND THE DOOR IS CLOSED.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT KEEPS SAYING THE DOOR IN MY 2013 FORD EDGE (WITH LESS THAN 35,000 MILES) IS OPEN WHEN IN FACT IT IS CLOSED. IT WILL POP ON WHILE I AM DRIVING, SOUNDING AN ALERT AND TURNING ON THE INTERIOR LIGHTS. (WHICH IS ENOUGH TO SCARE THE HECK OUT OF YOU) OTHER TIMES, WHEN I GET IN OR OUT OF THE DOOR IT WILL JUST STAY ON. THIS LEAVES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON DRAINING THE BATTERY TO DEAD.SO AS OF LATELY, I HAVE BEEN GETTING IN AND OUT THROUGH THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR.
A YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT WARNING COMES ON THE DASH. WHEN THAT HAPPENS THE VEHICLE LOSES ALL ACCELERATION POWER. YOU HAVE TO LIMP THE VEHICLE THE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND THEN START IT BACK. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN IN TRAFFIC. I FEEL THIS COULD CAUSE A WRECK. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AS WELL AS OTHER PEOPLES SAFETY. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10 TIMES IN THE LAST 10 DAYS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALER. THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AND INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY OR RECALL. I KNOW THAT OTHER FORD VEHICLES HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR WAS CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED EVEN THOUGH ALL THE DOORS WERE CLOSED. THE CONTACT STATED AS A RESULT, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS IN THE VEHICLE REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BILL COLLINS FORD WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER-SIDE DOOR LATCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE HOWEVER NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 88,000.
DRIVER DOOR LATCH READS DOOR AJAR ALARM,SHIFT INTO PARK,AN DOORS WANT LOCK AUTOMATICALLY AN LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF SOME TIMES FOR FORTY FIVE MINUTES OR LONGER.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CONTINUES TO STAY ON EVEN WHEN IT IS SHUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED FOR THE FRONT DRIVER-SIDE DOOR AND THE BACK DRIVER-SIDE DOOR. THE FRONT WAS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. I CAN NOT AFFORD THE BACK DOOR TO BE FIXED, AND I SHOULDN'T BECAUSE THIS IS AN OBVIOUS DEFECT! THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION WHEN THIS IS HAPPENING. I DON'T EVEN OPEN THE DOOR ANYMORE AS IT TAKES ABOUT THREE DAYS FOR THE SYSTEM TO REGISTER THAT IT IS CLOSED. BUT ONCE OPENED, THE LIGHT STAYS ON!!
DOOR LATCH DOES NOT PROPERLY SECURE. DOOR AJAR SENSOR LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND VEHICLE ALARM WILL NOT ACTIVATE BECAUSE DOOR LOCKS DO NOT ENGAGE. THIS HAPPENS CONSTANTLY; WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, STANDING, PARKED, ENGINE RUNNING AND ENGINE NOT RUNNING. LOW TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR LIGHT ALSO REMAINS ON AT ALL TIMES, EVEN THOUGH IT APPEARS TIRES ARE INFLATED TO PROPER PRESSURE.
LOW TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR LIGHT REMAINS ON AT ALL TIMES, EVEN THOUGH IT APPEARS TIRES ARE INFLATED TO PROPER PRESSURE. DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE IF THERE IS A VALID PROBLEM WITH TIRE PRESSURE - IF I IGNORE THE WARNING LIGHT AND THE TIRES REALLY ARE NOT AT CORRECT PRESSURE, I TAKE THE RISK OF HAVING A BLOW-OUT TRAVELLING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR WARNING WILL NOT GO OFF. FOUND OUT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE LATCH AND I REPLACED THE LATCH. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS I FOUND THIS IS A PREVALENT PROBLEM THAT FORD WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR CONSTANTLY SHOWS AS " DOOR AJAR" I HAVE TRIED LUBRICATING SWITCH AND BLOWING AIR ACROSS SWITCH AND IT STILL STAYS ON. I HAVE TRIED CLOSING DOOR WITH FORCE AND IT STILL REGISTERS AS AJAR. THE PROBLEM IS IT CONSTANTLY MAKES A NOISE WHILE DRIVING AND THE DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED AND I AM AFRAID THAT IT WILL DRAIN MY BATTERY AND I WONT KNOW FOR SURE THAT THE DOOR ISN'T AJAR AND I WILL NOT BE AWARE IF IS IN REALITY AJAR. THIS COULD BEE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THIS OCCURS WHEN I GET IN THE CAR AND START THE IGNITION, ALSO OCCURS WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND CLOSE AND LOCK THE CAR DOORS. THERE IS NOTHING TO TAKE A PICTURE OF, IT IS JUST A MICRO SWITCH MALFUNCTION. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR THE LAST YEAR PLUS.
WHILE ON THE FREEWAY, MY HAD COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE AND I HAD LESS THEN 20 SECONDS TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER HOWEVER EVERYTHING LOCKED UP AND I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I LET THE CAR SIT FOR 30 SECONDS AND RESTARTED THE CAR. I TOOK IT TO GET LOOKED AT BY 2 DIFFERENT SERVICE CENTERS AND THEY DIDNT FIND A PROBLEM. I DROVE IT AGAIN, AND IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES ON THE FREEWAY FROM SAN DIEGO TO ORANGE COUNTY. I HAD MY CAR TOWED, DID MY OWN RESEARCH AND LEARNED THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH FORD EDGES FOR MY SPECIFIC YEAR. THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT COVERING IT. I AM SELLING THIS CAR BECAUSE I AM FEARFUL FOR MY LIFE AND MY BABY GIRL THAT WAS IN THE CAR WITH ME.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE SIMILAR TO SAME MODEL YEAR VEHICLES WHICH HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLES VIN IS NOT COVERED BY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH IT HAS THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM.
LEFT FRONT DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING. REPEATING ALARM. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. WHILE DRIVING.
DRIVER DOOR LATCH PROBLEM. THE DOOR SHUTS BUT THE WARNING SAYS THAT THE DOOR IS STILL OPEN AND THE CABIN LIGHTS AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON. THIS DRAINS THE BATTERY AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHEN DRIVING OR BACKING UP AT NIGHT.
DOOR AJAR ISSUE SEE ATTACHED. 5TH COMPLAINT AND NO RESPONSE SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DOOR FLUNG OPEN WHILE DRIVING , 8 YEAR OLD CHILD WAS IN THE VEHICLE!!!
DRIVERSIDE DOOR LATCH IS MESSED UP,IT IS SHOWING DOORS AJAR WHEN IT IS CLOSED.
ALL FOUR ROTORS FAILED BEFORE THE BRAKE PADS FAILED. THE DEALER SAYS THIS IS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. HOWEVER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN LIGHTLY USED. IT SEEMS THE BRAKE ROTORS ARE MADE OF DEFECTIVE MATERIALS SUBJECT TO ABNORMAL CORROSION. FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE REFUSED TO COVER THE PARTS UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT I WILL HAVE TO RESOLVE AND PAY FOR.
DEFECTIVE DOOR LATCH - THE DEFECT IS NOT COVERED IN OTHER RECALL FOR FORD MODELS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS SAFETY CONCERN AND FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE WILL NOT REPAIR THE VEHICLE.
WHEN CAR IS STARTED AND PUT IN DRIVE, "ENGINE ON" WARNING COMES ON, FOLLOWED BY, "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" WARNING. NEXT MESSAGE IS TO PUT CAR IN PARK. DOOR IS NOT AJAR, BUT OPENING AND SLAMMING DOOR SOLVES THE PROBLEM. INTERMITTENTLY, THE CAR WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK WITHOUT THE KEY BEING USED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. PASSENGER DOOR IS UNAFFECTED.
LEFT FRONT DOOR SENSOR REGULARLY INDICATES DOOR AJAR, WHEN IT IS NOT. EFFECTS WHETHER I CAN LOCK DOORS TO PROTECT CHILDREN AND OTHER PASSENGERS. ALSO ADVERSELY IMPACTS BATTERY LIFE; IF SENSOR INCORRECTLY INDICATES DOOR AJAR, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AFTER DEPARTING THE VEHICLE, THUS DRAINING BATTERY AND INCREASING LIKELIHOOD OF NOT BEING ABLE TO START LATER.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT LIGHT WILL COME ON WHILE DRIVING AS THERE WAS NOT LIGHT ON WHEN ONE STARTED THE TRIP BUT COMES ON AFTER DRIVING A BIT, AND HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES AND ALSO CAUSE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON. HAVE TO BE CAREFUL AS SOME TIMES THE LIGHT DOES NOT GO OFF WHEN CAR IS PARKED. FEEL IT IS A HAZARD TO BE DRIVING AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COME ON AFTER DRIVING A WHILE IN TRAFFIC
DOOR AJAR SENSORS ARE FAULTY, CAUSING UNSAFE CONDITIONS WHILE DRIVING, MOSTLY AT NIGHT TINE..
SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, NO SPECIAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, ENGINE RPM DROPPED WITHOUT WARNING TO 400 RPM, CAR SPEED LIMITED TO 1 MPH. HAD TO QUICKLY PULL OFF 45 MPH, 4-LAND HWY. THRU HEAVY TRAFFIC TO REACH SIDE STREET (NO SHOULDER AVAILABLE). ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN - BUT NO RESPONSE TO THROTTLE PEDAL. CONDITION KNOWN AS "LIMP MODE". TURNED ENGINE OFF, WAITED FEW MINUTES, STARTED BACK UP NORMALLY. DEALER UNABLE TO PULL ERROR CODE. HOWEVER, RESEARCH AND COMPLAINTS FILED ON-LINE SHOW THIS IS RECURRING PROBLEM WITH FORD ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. THIS IS DEFINATELY A SAFETY ISSUE. MANY OTHER FORD MODELS HAVE HAD RECALL FOR DEFECTIVE ETB'S - BUT NOT MY VIN. SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER IS INDICATED BY "YELLOW WRENCH" INDICATOR - BUT SUDDEN COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER IS SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE ON ROADS WITHOUT SHOULDER, OR WORSE, HEAVY MULTI-LANE TRAFFIC OR NARROW BRIDGES. FORD ACCEPTED COMPLAINT - BUT REFUSED EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE - DEALER CHARGES FOR REPLACEMENT ETB INSTALLATION WERE NOT SUBSIDIZED BY FORD. IF FORD ETB'S HAVE BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER MODELS, ALL ETB'S SHOULD BE RECALLED. SEVERE, SCARY, RELIABILITY & SAFETY ISSUE.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYING ON FOR DRIVER DOOR. ALERT KEEPS TELLING ME TO PUT CAR IN PARK WHILE CAR IS IIN MOTION. DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION. DONE LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION. THIS HAPPENED IN EARLY 2016 AS WELL, FORD DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE ENTIRE DOOR MECHANISM SO THIS PART IS ONLY 16 MONTHS OLD.
THIS IS MY SECOND TIME REPORTING NON-WORKING DOOR LOCK SYSTEMS. HAS BEEN REPAIRED BUT CONTINUES TO NOT WORK. WHAT CAN BE DONE
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY EXCESSIVE FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN. THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, ALAN CAR CARE, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000.
CONSTANT DOOR ADJAR WARNINGS. UPON CLOSING THE DRIVERS DOOR, THE DOOR ADJAR WARNING GOES OFF, AND I CAN NOT LOCK MY DOOR AFTER THIS WARNING GOES OFF. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT IF IT IS THROWING THIS DOOR ADJAR WARNING WHEN YOU PARK YOUR CAR, THE DOME LIGHTS WILL STAY ON AND DRAIN YOUR BATTERY. THIS IS AN ENGINEERING FAILURE, AND NEEDS HAVE A RECALL ISSUED. IF YOU CAN NOT LOCK YOUR DOORS WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING....NOW DAYS THAT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. CAN YOU SAY CARJACKING WAITING TO HAPPEN?? THINK ABOUT YOUR FAMILY, DRIVING IN A CAR WITH THIS PROBLEM...NOT A GOOD FEELING HUH? MAKE THIS A RECALL FORD! STAND BEHIND YOUR VEHICLES THAT YOU SELL !!!!!
2ND AND 3RD CYLINDERS IN MY 2.0 ECOBOOST ENGINE ARE MISFIRING. CAR HAS 63000 MILES. CAR SHAKES WHEN IDLING AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. CAR DRIVES AT 6000 RPM WHEN GOING 60MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. CAR SHAKES AND JERKS WHEN DRIVING. CHANGED ENGINE COILS AND SPARK PLUGS AND THAT DID NOTHING.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON. WITH THAT THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CAR WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING. DRAINS BATTERY. ALARM KEEPS BEEPING AS I'M DRIVING. ALL ARE SAFETY CONCERNS.
VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT NEW AND NOW HAS 60000 MILES. WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS BEFORE 06/14/17. DRIVING TO WORK, THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, ACCELERATOR WOULD NOT FUNCTION AND SPEEDOMETER QUIT REGISTERING. THE YELLOW WRENCH CAME ON INDICATING THERE WAS SOME TYPE OF POWERTRAIN FAILURE. VEHICLE WAS ON A TWO-LANE BRIDGE AND HAD TO LIMP TO THE OTHER SIDE TO SAFELY PULL OVER. WAS NOT ABLE TO TRAVEL MORE THAN 1-2 MILES PER HOUR. PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND DECIDED TO RESTART THE CAR. VEHICLE WORKED NORMALLY AND WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE INTO WORK. CONTACTED FORD SERVICE AND MAKE APPOINTMENT TO BRING IT IN THE NEXT MORNING FOR DIAGNOSIS. TECHNICIAN VERIFIED CONCERN, TRIED TO PULL A CODE, WAS NOT ABLE TO GET ONE, BUT DETERMINED THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE THROTTLE BODY INTERNAL FAILURE AND REPLACED AND REPROGRAMMED PCM. A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALED A RECALL FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM AND PART BY FORD BUT NOT FOR THE EDGE. HOWEVER, IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE MANY EDGE OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND CORRECTED BEFORE SOMEONE DIES OR IS SERIOUSLY INJURED.
WHEN YOU SHIFT INTO DRIVE THE DOOR ADJAR LIGHT COMES ON, THE CHIME AND MESSAGE TO SHIFT TO PARK AND THE INABILITY TO LOCK THE DOORS. IT CAUSES A SAFETY PROBLEM FOR THE DRIVER. VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR.
DOOR AJAR LAMP STAYS ON, DRAINS BATTERY. COMES ON WHILE DRIVING, FORCES PULL OVERS ON FREEWAYS TO GET THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO GO OFF.
THE LEFT REAR DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION LIGHT ON THE DASH WILL NOT GO OFF, EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS SHUT. WHICH MEANS THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. THIS HAPPENED WHEN THE DOOR WAS OPENED, BUT NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES, OR HOW MUCH FORCE IS USED TO CLOSE THE DOOR, THE NOTIFICATION WON'T GO AWAY, AND THE DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE IN MOTION.
DOOR LATCH SENSOR STAYS ON. DEALERSHIP STATES IT IS A TYPICAL FAULTY PART THAT THEY HAVE TO REPLACE. EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE SAME PART CONTINUES TO FAIL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE'S SPEED REDUCED AND WOULD ONLY ACCELERATE TO 4 MPH. A WRENCH WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, IT RETURNED TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (PINES FORD LINCOLN LOCATED AT 8655 PINES BLVD, PEMBROKE PINES, FL 33024; (954) 443-7000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ELECTRIC THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AT 866-436-7332 AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. CASE NUMBER: CAS12510115 WAS PROVIDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000.
FORD HAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER ON THE EDGE. BEING PROACTIVE TO HAVE MINE MY ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED.
INTERIOR HEADLIGHTS WITH DOOR AJAR LIGHT COME ON AND OFF RANDOMLY
THERE IS WATER LEAKING INTO MY FORD EDGE LEAVING A PUDDLE ON MY DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR, COMPLETELY SATURATING THE CARPET. THE WATER IS LITERALLY POOLING ON THE FLOOR UNDER MY FEET. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR SITS IDLE, UNDRIVEN, WHEN THERE IS RAIN. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AN A/C LEAKAGE, CONDENSATION, ETC. THERE IS WATER LEAKING FROM THE OUTSIDE INTO MY VEHICLE AND HAS NOW RESULTED IN RUSTING OF MY FLOORBOARD AND MOLDING TO MY CARPET. THERE IS A STRONG MOLD ODOR AND IS INTOLOERABLE UNLESS THE WINDOWS ARE OPEN WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE A CHILD WITH ALLERGIES AND HE CAN NOT BE EXPOSED TO THIS. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES AFTER RAIN . I HAVE VACUUMED UP THE WATER, DRIED THE CARPETING BUT IT REOCCURRES OVER AND OVER. MY FIRST INCIDENT WAS JUST A MONTH OR SO AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED. I WILL GET INTO MY VEHICLE IN THE MORNING AND YOU CAN VISUALLY SEE A PUDDLE ON MY DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR, SOMETIMES EVEN SUBMERSING MY FLOOR MAT, WHEN THERE WAS RAIN DURING THE NIGHT AND THE FLOOR WAS DRY WHEN I PARKED IT THE NIGHT BEFORE.
LAST YEAR I BROUGHT MY EDGE IN FOR DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO A FORD DEALER. THEY FIXED IT AND IT COST 225.00. THIS WAS JULY 14 2016. IT HAS STARTED TO DO THE SAME THING LESS THEN A YEAR. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IF YOU JUST PRESS THE OK AND THE LIGHT GOES OUT THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. AND IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN IN THE BACK THEY CAN STILL OPEN THE DOOR.. FORD SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO HAVE THIS FIX NOT THE CONSUMER.
THE DOOR AJAR WARNING WILL NOT GO OFF WITH THE DOOR CLOSED . IT WILL DO IT AFTER DRIVING FOR A FEW MILES AND WHEN FIRST STARTED. I CAN NO LONGER LOCK MY CAR AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE ALARM WILL GO OFF DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND WAKE EVERYONE UP. I HAVE BEEN READING MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE,AND FOR AS MUCH AS THESE CARS COST , I CAN'T BELIEVE FORD HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL TO FIX IT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO ME NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK MY DOORS AT NIGHT, AND BECAUSE WHILE DRIVING, THE DOORS UNLOCK. PLEASE EXPEDITE THIS INVESTIGATION FOR MYSELF AND THE THOUSANDS OF OTHERS THIS HAS AFFECTED.
I HIT JUST A LITTLE OVER 60 K MILES ON MY 2013 FORD EDGE AND I WAS ALSO DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND WHEN IT WAS GETTING SERVICED, THEY OFFERED ME MAINTENANCE ON MY CAR AS IT WAS DUE. I DECLINED. WHEN I GOT IN MY CAR THE 'DOOR AJAR' LIGHT STARTED TO SOUND SO I OPENED AND SHUT MY DOOR BUT THE PROBLEM WOULD NOT CORRECT. I WENT ABOUT MY DAILY ROUTINES AND IT HAS NOT STOPPED AND IT'S VERY ANNOYING AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T SHUT OFF CAUSING THE PANELS TO BECOME VERY HOT. NOW THE INSIDE PANEL/SCREEN HAS FROZEN UP AND I KEEP HAVING TO RESET IT. I CALLED FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY ONLY WANT ME TO BRING IT IN (SO THEY CAN CHARGE ME THE $500+ TO FIX IT). THIS IS A RIPOFF!!! MY DOOR WON'T LOCK EITHER. I LIVE ALONE IN A RATHER LARGE CITY AND THERE ARE BEGGARS ON JUST ABOUT EVERY CORNER. THIS MORNING, ONE CAME UP TO MY CAR AND TAPPED ON MY WINDOW WANTING MONEY. MY DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK AND I WAS SCARED TO DEATH. ANYONE CAN OPEN MY DOOR AT A STOP LIGHT OR WHEREVER I AM AND I AM NOT SECURE. FORD KNOWS THIS IS HAPPENING AND WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. IT'S A SCAM TO GET MONEY FROM EVERYONE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND I AM NOW CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY.
DOOR AJAR SIGNAL & INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. CAUSES A NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD SINCE LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN DRIVING, LEAVES INTERIOR LIGHTS ON WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY WHEN CAR IS OFF & IN PARK, & UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHEN IN VEHICLE WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE IN DRIVE. HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY OVER MULTIPLE WEEKS & MONTHS.
SHIFT TO PARK WARNING ON THE DASH COMES ON WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK. THIS CAUSES THE BATTERY TO RUN DOWN. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM IS IN THE SHIFT ASSEMBLY.CAR HAS 19,000 MILES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO APPLY THE BRAKES, THE CONTACT HAD TO PLACE EXTRA PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO BEGIN TO STOP. THE BRAKES ALSO MADE A HISSING TYPE NOISE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS REGARDING THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 69,000.
DOOR AJAR ALARM WILL NOT TURN OFF WITH DOOR FULLY SHUT. THIS IS SECOND TIME AFTER WE PAID TO HAVE REPAIRED APPROX. ONE YEAR AGO.
THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT COMES WHEN THE DOOR IS FULLY LATCHED, THE DOOR CAN BE SLAMMED REPEATEDLY AND THE LIGHT STAYS ON. THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT STAYS LIT CREATING NIGHT VISION PROBLEMS, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, THESE TWO PROBLEMS CREATE VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUES. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM AND HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED NUMEROUS TIMES
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON LONG AFTER CAR IS PARKED OR DRIVING ALONG WITH INTER LIGHTS STAY ON TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR STAYS LOW PRESSURE RANDOM TIMES COLD OR HOT WEATHER
DOOR AJAR SENSOR GOES OFF EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS CLOSED PROPERLY. THIS HAPPENS WHILE STATIONARY. DINGS TO 'SHIFT TO PARK'. STARTED OFF WITH HAVING TO CLOSE AND RECLOSE THE DOOR ON OCCASION. NOW IT'S UP TO 8-10 TIMES IN A ROW BEFORE THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR STOPS. CAR ALARM WON'T ENGAGE. HAVE ALSO HAD TO DRIVE WITH INDICATOR CONSTANTLY DINGING WHILE DRIVING TELLING ME TO STOP AND CLOSE DOOR. LOCKS WON'T ENGAGE WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE. CALLED MY LOCAL FORD SERVICE CENTER AND THEY SAID THEY HAD TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC...WHICH WILL COST ME OVER 100 DOLLARS EVEN THOUGH I HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. THERE SEEMS TO BE QUITE A FEW COMPLAINT REGARDING THIS ISSUE. COSTS TO REPAIR RUN BETWEEN $350-500 ACCORDING TO REPORTS ON FORUMS. MY CAR HAS 50,000 AND IS MAINTAINED IMPECCABLY. WOULD SEEM BECAUSE THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS AND THE SAFETY ISSUE OF DRIVING WITH THE SENSOR GOING OFF AND NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING, THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE. THIS STARTED A COUPLE MONTHS AGO AND HAS GOTTEN CONTINUALLY WORSE AND MORE OFTEN.
ENGINE SUDDENLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING. YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND THERE IS NO POWER WHEN APPLYING ACCELERATOR. HAS HAPPENED WHILE ON HIGHWAY (APPROX 70 MPH) AND SURFACE STREETS (APPROX 30 MPH). PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE. THE RESTART WAS SPUTTERY BUT CAME ON AND NO MORE WRENCH LIGHT, THE VEHICLE RAN AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. AFTER TAKING IT TO A DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED AND NO FIX COULD BE MADE.
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT AND ALARM COMES ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES THE DOOR IS CLOSED OR HOW HARD IT IS SLAMMED, THE WARNING CONTINUES. ALSO, THE DOME LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF, AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE THE WARNING IS ON. THE NOISE IS DRIVING ME NUTS! HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR WAS 1 YEAR OLD AND NOW IT IS BACK AGAIN. 40,000 MILES SO NO WARRANTY. OBVIOUSLY THEY DO NOT HAVE A PERMANENT FIX FOR THIS RECURRING PROBLEM. THE DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON AS SOON AS I START THE CAR, AND CONTINUES WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. AGAIN - THE DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED!!!
DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON CONSTANTLY
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE CHIME SOUNDED. THE "ENGINE ON, DOOR OPEN, PARK CAR" MESSAGE FLASHED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, BUT THE CHIME CONTINUED AND THE MESSAGE REMAINED. THE CONTACT HAD TO UNPLUG THE BATTERY IN ORDER TO STOP THE WARNING INDICATOR AND THE CHIME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE CAPELL FORD WOODSIDE NEW YORK DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH WAS DAMAGED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000.
DOOR AJAR WARNING REMAINS ON AFTER DOORS HAVE BEEN CLOSED TIGHTLY. LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND DRAINS BATTERY. DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY.
BREAK BOOSTER WENT OUT. THIS CAUSES THE BREAK PEDAL TO BE HARD TO PRESS AND DELAY IN BREAKING.
DOOR LATCH SYSTEM MALFUNCTION. THIS TRIGGERS A DOOR ADJAR SIGNAL IN THE VEHICLE. THIS ULTIMATELY KEEPS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON AND PROHIBITS YOU FROM LOCKING THE DOORS OF THE VEHICLE
THE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED, FOR NO REASON! THE CAR WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE AND HADN'T BEEN DRIVEN FOR 3 HOURS.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT WOULD NOT TURN OFF WITH THE DOOR CLOSED. THIS PREVENTS THE DOOR LOCKS FROM WORKING WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION, INCLUDING THE REAR DOORS WHERE THE BABY SEAT IS LOCATED. THIS COULD ALLOW A CHILD TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE IN MOTION. ALSO, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS SHINE ON THE WINDSHIELD AT NIGHT MAKING I DIFFICULT TO SEE ONCOMING TRAFFIC AT NIGHT.
MY BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED. IT HAD A HISSING SOUND WHEN THE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, AND THE BRAKES WERE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ACTUATE WHEN DRIVING UNDER ANY CONDITIONS. I KNOW THERE WAS A SIMILAR RECALL ON THE FORD EDGE BUT THEY TELL ME THAT MINE IS NOT AFFECTED OR COVERED. I JUST PAID TO HAVE IT REPLACED AT 23,126 MILES.
WHILE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY, DOOR AJAR SENSOR INDICATED DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WAS AJAR WHEN IT WASN'T. DEALER CLEANED SENSOR AND IT WORKED FOR AWHILE. NOW VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND SENSOR IS FAILING AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME WHILE IT WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE FOR THE NIGHT THE PARKING LIGHTS AND DOME LIGHTS CAME ON BECAUSE SENSOR INDICATED THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WAS AJAR.
2013 FORD EDGE 3.5L V6 SEL THE DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON RANDOMLY, EVEN WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT (MOSTLY 2 LANE COUNTRY ROADS). I HAVE TO STAND OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE WHEN I AM DONE DRIVING AND OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR ANYWHERE FROM 10-20 TIMES BEFORE IT GOES OFF. THIS HAS DRAINED AT LEAST 2 BATTERIES BY RANDOMLY COMING ON IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. I HAVE REPLACED THE SWITCH, THE ENTIRE LOCK SYSTEM TWICE NOW. THE DEALER WANTS $500 TO FIX. I CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY $500 EVERY FEW MONTHS FOR A BAD DESIGN BY FORD. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A KNOWN ISSUE AND HAS BEEN FOR QUITE SOMETIME. JUST ABOUT EVERY EDGE OWNER HAS HAD TO DEAL WITH THIS. FORD NEEDS TO COME UP WITH THE PROPER FIX FOR ALL DOORS AND AT THEIR EXPENSE. THE CONSUMER IS GETTING RIPPED OFF BY FORD WITH THIS ISSUE.
THE DOOR SENSORS IN THIS VEHICLE DO NOT SENSE THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED WHEN IT IS. THIS LEADS TO BEING UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHILE DRIVING, IT ALSO CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON WHEN THE CAR IS OFF EVEN AFTER THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND THE CAR IS LOCKED WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY. OCCASIONALLY, THE DOOR WILL SENSE THAT IT IS CLOSED AFTER SLAMMING IT. THIS HAS LED TO AN ARM INJURY THAT I SUSTAINED WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DO THIS REPEATEDLY FROM THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND NOT A ONE-TIME OCCURRENCE.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR ALARM IS ALWAYS ON. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE DRIVING. HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT. DRAINS BATTERY WHEN OFF.
THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT STAYS ON SHOWING DRIVERS SIDE DOOR OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. DRAINS THE BATTERY, IT CAUSES THE ALARM TO GO OFF RANDOMLY AND IT IS NOT SAFE AS I AM NOT ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS. TODAY WILL BE THE 7TH TIME I AM TAKING IT TO A CERTIFIED FORD DEALER FOR REPAIR.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY (DOING 70 MPH) MY VEHICLE RANDOMLY STALLED OUT. I WAS FORCED TO COAST TO A STOP, PULL OVER, AND TURN MY CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON TO BEGIN DRIVING AGAIN. IT LATER HAPPENED AN HOUR LATER AT A STOP LIGHT WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AND THEN AGAIN AT THE NEXT LIGHT ON THE ROAD. AFTER LOOKING UP POSSIBLE PROBLEMS, IT WAS FOUND THAT COUNTLESS OTHERS WITH THE SAME VEHICLE HAVE THE SAME STALLING PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING. THIS CREATES A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS RISK FOR DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE FORD DEALERSHIP LOOK AT MY VEHICLE, HOWEVER FROM OTHERS WHO HAVE SPOKEN ON THEIR EXPERIENCES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THEY CANNOT "RECREATE THE PROBLEM". THUS SENDING THE CUSTOMER ON THEIR WAY STATING THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. JUST 1 OF THE MANY FORUMS WHERE OTHERS VOICE THE SAME PROBLEM. HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/FORD/EDGE/CAR-STALL-PROBLEMS.PHP THIS VEHICLE MUST BE RECALLED BEFORE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH OCCURS DUE TO FORD'S NEGLIGENCE.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR SWITCH DOES NOT WORK. THE DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT, BUT THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE WARNING SIGNAL KEEPS GOING OFF. HAVE HAD THIS WORKED ON, BUT THE FIX DOES'T LAST. TERRIBLE DESIGN THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED!
DOOR AJAR CONSTANTLY COMES ON AND OFF WHEN DRIVING. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AS CAR THINKS DOOR IS OPEN. AS SEVERAL OTHERS HAVE STATED...I'M WAITING FOR THE DAY WHEN I GET IN THE CAR AND BATTERY IS DEAD AS WE CAN NOT TURN OFF LIGHTS ! JUST CALLED JIM CLICK FORD AND THEY HAVE FOUND NO RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM...THEREFORE I HAVE TO PAY OVER 500 DOLLARS TO FIX WEIRD HOW OVER 150O PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE WITH VEHICLE BUT FORD DOESN'T THINK IT'S A PROBLEM. I GUESS AN "ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN" WILL CHANGE THAT THINKING. WHEN INTERIOR. LIGHTS AUTOMATICALLY COME ON AT NIGHT WHEN DRIVING I WILL DO MY BEST TO SEE THE ROAD AND CARS AROUND ME. THANKS FORD!
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALARM CONTINUALLY IS INITIATED EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED. THIS CAN CAUSE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON AND DRAIN BATTERY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED. THIS ALARM WILL CONTINUE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. RE-OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR SOMETIMES SOLVES THE PROBLEM. IF ALARM CANNOT BE CANCELLED, DOORS DON'T ALWAYS LOCK WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.
WHEN THE DRIVERS DOOR IS SHUT, THE SENSOR WILL SHOW THAT IT IS STILL OPEN AND WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS COME ON AT RANDOM TIMES AND STAY ON SOMETIMES ONE MINUTE, SOMETIMES 5 MINUTES AND IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. THE DOOR IS SHUT BUT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AS WELL AS INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ONE. I HAVE HAD THIS "FIXED" BY FORD A YEAR AGO AND IT IS STILL HAPPENING.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND SIGNAL REMAIN ON ALL THE TIME.
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE-PCM. AFTER 3 YEARS OF REPLACING/REPAIRING ITEMS ON MY CAR, THEY NOW SAY THAT THE PCM IS THE CAUSE. I HAVE REPLACED MULTIPLE SENSORS, CATALYTIC CONVERTER, DRIVE SHAFT, TURBO, COOLING SYSTEM, AND THE LIST GOES ON. HAD THE PCM BEEN DIAGNOSED THE FIRST TIME MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND REPLACED THE SENSOR, I COULD OF SAVED A LOT OF TIME. EVERY TIME I WOULD GO IN, THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST WOULD SHOW 02 SENSOR WHICH WAS REPLACED NUMEROUS TIMES, THEN THEY WOULD SAY CATALYTIC CONVERTER, SO ON SO ON GOING DOWN THE LIST. I WOULD GET STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. NOT ONE PERSON IN THE PAST 3 YEARS SAID THE PCM WAS TO BLAME. AFTER A WEEK OF TRYING TO DIAGNOSIS MY CAR AFTER ONCE AGAIN BEING STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY, THEY ARE SAYING THE PCM. THE MECHANIC STATES THAT THE COMPUTER MODULE IS ON BACK ORDER WITH FORD. THE FORD REP STATES THAT THEY ARE SELLING THEM FASTER THAN THEY CAN BE MADE. IF THIS PART IS ON BACK ORDER (2 WEEKS) AND CAN'T KEEP THEM IN STOCK, THERE SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE PCM FOR FORDS. EVERYTHING THAT I HAVE READ STATES IT IS VERY HARD TO DIAGNOSIS A PCM BUT THERE NEEDS TO BE A CODE THAT APPEARS WHEN IT IS FAULTY BECAUSE THIS COULD OF BEEN COVERED UNDER WARRANTY 3 YEARS AGO BUT INSTEAD, I HAVE PAID A LOT OF OUT OF POCKET TO GET TO THIS POINT OF REPLACING THE PCM. PCM IN HIGH DEMAND WITH FORD INDICATES A RED FLAG FOR THIS PART AND ISSUE. PLEASE REVIEW.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAY AND WHICH CAUSES THE BATTERY TO DIE. I HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR NUMEROUS TIMES IN ORDER TO GET THE INTERIOR LIGHTS OFF. SOMETIMES THE DOOR WON'T EVEN CATCH AND HAS FLOWN OPEN WHILE DRIVING WITH MY 8 YEAR OLD CHILD IN THE VEHICLE
THE DOOR SENSOR IN DRIVERS DOOR IS NOT WORKING. IT SAYS IT'S AJAR WHEN IT'S CLOSED TIGHTLY. ISSUE IS WHEN I AM DRIVING IT WILL JUST POP ON AND INTERIOR LIGHTS POP ON AND I HAVE TO SHUT DOOR SEVERAL TIMES FOR IT SENSE IT'S SHUT AND IT MAY NOT STAY THAT WAY. IT IS DANGEROUS WHEN LIGHTS POP ON AT NIGHT MAKE IT HARD TO SEE ROAD HAVE TO PULL OVER. OTHER DOWN SIDE IS IF I DON'T STAND OUTSIDE MY CAR WHEN I GET OUT TO MAKE SURE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS SHUT OFF OTHERWISE WILL DRAIN MY BATTERY AS IT IS NOT SENSING DOOR IS CLOSED.
DOOR ADJAR STAYS ON AND LIGHTS DO NOT SHUT OFF WHICH LEADS TO MY BATTERY DYING AND I CAN'T TELL IF THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS EVER SHUT PROPERLY.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND NOTIFICATIONS REMAIN ON AFTER THE DOOR HAS BEEN CLOSED. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME WE DRIVE THE CAR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE INDICATOR DIMMED AFTER HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LOCK MECHANISM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.
THE FORD EDGE HAS DEVELOPED A PROBLEM WITH THE PDU UNIT WHICH ACTUALLY FAILED. ACCORDING TO THE FORD MECHANICS THIS IS A CHRONIC PROBLEM WITH SOME OF THE FAILURES CAUSING THE UNITS TO SPLIT OPEN REDENDERING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE. IF THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE DRIVEN IF FAILURE OCCURS WHEN DRIVING IT COULD EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IN SOME CIRCUMSTANCES. LUCKILY IF ONE IS VERY OBSERVANT AND NOTICES THE UNIT LEAKING OIL AND GET IT CHECKED OUT IT CAN BE REPLACED PRIOR TO TOTAL FAILURE. WHEN THE LEAK WAS SEEN ON OUR GARAGE FLOOR I GOT IT CHECKED OUT. NOT KNOWING WHAT WAS WRONG THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN ON A TRIP PRIOR TO GETTING IT CHECKED OUT AND LUCKILY DID NOT FAIL DURING THE 400 MILE TRIP. WHEN WE GOT HOME THE UNIT WAS LEAKING ALOT AND WAS TOLD NOT TO DRIVE IT UNTIL THE REPLACEMENT WAS INSTALLED. THE DEALER FOUND THAT THERE WERE NO REPLACEMENTS IN THE FORD WAREHOUSE SYSTEM AND THAT IT COULD TAKE 2 TO 3 WEEKS TO GET IT IN. THIS REAFFIRMS THAT ALOT OF THESE UNITS ARE FAILING AND WILL CONTINUE TO FAIL UNTIL A MORE PERMANENT IS MADE. REPLACING A BAD PART DESIGN WITH THE SAME THING IS NOT A PERMANENT FIX, JUST A BAND-AID WHICH ONLY DELAYS ANOTHER FAILURE.
THE DOOR AJAR WARNING FOR MY DRIVERS SIDE STAYS ON ALL THE TIME, EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. THIS HAS CAUSED INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON AND BATTERY LIFE TO BE DRAINED. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE DOME LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. ALSO, WHILE IDLING AT ANY STOP, THE VEHICLE BEEPED AND THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR LOCKS DID NOT LOCK. THE FAILURES WERE NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.
THE WIPERS RANDOMLYTURN ON WHEN SWITCH IS IN OFF POSITION
THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR STAYS ON EVEN WITH THE DOOR CLOSED AND LATCHED. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR KEEPS TELLING YOU TO STOP AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK BECAUSE THE DOOR IS NOT LATCHED. WHEN THE CAR IS OFF THE LIGHTS STAY ON DRAINNING THE BATTERY BECAUSE IT STILL DOES NOT SENSE THE DOOR IS CLOSED.
BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE
THE LEFT DOOR AJAR SENSOR LIGHT STAYS ON AFTER ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED SECURELY. THE DOORS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AFTER STARTING TO DRIVE. THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON FOR A LONG TIME. THE WARNING SIGNAL BEEPS EVERY TIME WE STEP ON THE BRAKE AND IS VERY ANNOYING.
WHEN THE DRIVER DOOR IS CLOSED THE DOOR AJAR WARNING REMAINS ON. THIS CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHEN CAR IS TURNED OFF CAUSING A BATTERY DRAIN. ALSO THE DOOR AJAR WARNING SOUNDS AND DOME LIGHT TURNS ON WHENEVER YOU COME TO A STOP AND THEN LIFT FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. THIS MAKES IT VERY UNSAFE AT NIGHT WHEN TRYING TO BACKUP. THIS ALSO CAUSES THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS TO NOT ENGAGE EITHER. THIS CAR IS A LITTLE OVER THREE YEARS OLD AND THIS SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. VERY POOR DESIGN ON THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR. RESEARCHING I HAVE FOUND MANY EDGE OWNERS WITH THIS ISSUE. FORD SHOULD ADDRESS THIS IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.
DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION WILL NOT GO OFF EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. THIS KEEPS THE OVER HEAD DOME LIGHTS FROM GOING OFF AS WELL AS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING. IT'S DANGEROUS AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT'S HARD TO SEE TO BACK UP WHEN THE DOME LIGHTS ARE ON. IT MAKES VISIBILITY VERY LOW. IT'S ALSO NOT SAFE THAT THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK.
DOOR AJAR REMAINS ON WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED. CANNOT LOCK DOORS WHEN IN VEHICLE. VERY UNSAFE WITH CHILDREN. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND DRAIN BATTERY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE INTERIOR LIGHTING SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, AND THE DOOR CHIME BEGAN TO SOUND. WHEN THE CONTACT STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND OPENED AND CLOSED THE DOOR, THE CHIME STOPPED. THE FAILURE RECURRED SHORTLY AFTERWARDS. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURES OCCURRED EVERY DAY FOR THE PAST THREE WEEKS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO CALL NHTSA AND FILE A COMPLAINT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,200.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS COMING ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS IS PREVENTING THE DOME LIGHTS FROM TURNING OFF IN ORDER TO DRIVE AND ALSO DRAINING THE BATTERY. IS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AT NIGHT AND WHEN I PARK MY CAR AND THE BATTERY DIES.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF ON MY 2013 FORD EDGE WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR DOME TO REMAIN ON WHILE DRIVING CAUSING A SERIOUS DRIVING OBSTRUCTION AND DANGEROUS CONDITION. IT IS ALSO DRAINING THE BATTERY.
TWICE NOW WITHIN TWO DAYS, MY WIFE OR I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ALONG AT 20-30 MPH THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE VEHICLE HAS LOST PROPULSION. I SAY THIS BECAUSE THE MOTOR STAYS RUNNING, BUT DOESN'T ACCEPT INPUT FROM THE GAS PETAL. SERVICE WRENCH COMES ON, BUT VEHICLE DIAGNOSTICS COME BACK OK. TURN VEHICLE OFF, CRANKS UP AND DRIVES FINE. THE INTERWEBS SAYS ITS A THROTTLE BODY ISSUE.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF EVEN WHEN ALL DOORS ARE PROPERLY CLOSED. THIS LEAVES THE DOME LIGHTS ON THE ENTIRE TIME, WASTING BATTERY. IT ALSO CAUSES WARNING BELLS AND LIGHTS TO COME ON WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING A DISTRACTION.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON. HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR AT LEAST 3-4 TIMES BEFORE IT GOES OFF. HAD IT LOOKED AT THE DEALER ONLY TO HAVE THEM ONLY CLEAN THE DOOR LATCH. WHEN PROBLEM RETURNED THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, TOO MANY MILES AND WOULD COST OVER $350.00 TO REPLACE DOOR LATCH. THERE IS CLEARLY A PROBLEM WITH THIS AS MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE ONLY VEHICLE DOING THIS. THE OTHER CONCERN BESIDES THE DOOR POSSIBLY FLYING OPEN, IS HAVING TO REPLACE THE BATTERY AS THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME AFTER SHUTTING THE CAR OFF AND NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE CAR BECAUSE IT THINKS THE DOOR IS AJAR. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.
LH DOOR AJAR LAMP WONT LET THE INTERIOR LAMPS TURN OFF DURING VEHICLE IN USE, A REAL PROBLEM AT NIGHT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE "DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR" INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WHILE THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT THE CONTACT WAS NOT AWARE OF THE RESULTS. THE DEALER OFFERED A TEMPORARY REPAIR, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST BECAUSE THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO RETURN TO THE DEALER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27,000.
BRAKE PEDAL DROP TO FLOOR AND VEHICLE DIES, ALSO TURNS ON CHECK ENG LITE DUE TO VACUUM LOSS DEALER THEN TRIES TO SELL YOU EMISSION PARTS DUE TO CODE, MY CAR IS MAY BUILD 5/1/ THE 3/1 ARE UNDER RECALL SAME PLEASE PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS. THE DEALER ONLY PULLS UP WHAT IS ON HIS COMPUTER . YOU WILL NEVER KNOW THE AMOUNT OF VEHICLES THAT ARE AFFECTED.DO TO THERE RECORDS NOT BEING AVAILABLE TO YOU..
DOOR AJAR SENSOR DOESN'T REGISTER AND TELLS THE CAR THAT THE DOOR ISN'T CLOSED WHEN IT IS. LEADS TO DRAINED BATTERIES WHEN PARKED DUE TO CAR THINKING THE DOOR IS OPEN AND WE HAVE BEEN STRANDED MULTIPLE TIMES. IT ALSO TRIGGERS MULTIPLE ALARMS DURING THE ENTIRE DRIVING EXPERIENCE THAT ARE HAZARDOUS DUE TO TAKING ATTENTION OFF OF THE ROAD TO READ WHAT'S WRONG AND LOOK AT THE SCREEN.
DOOR AJAR/ DOOR LATCH ISSUE. WHEN MY DOOR ARE CLOSED IT STILL SAYS ITS OPEN I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR YEAR AND HALF AND I WANT TO REFUSE TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE I HAVE 2 KIDS AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING AND MY LIGHTS IN THE CAR STAY ON. I BEEN READINGS ITS HUGE ISSUE WITH FORD, I REFUSE TO PAY $500 BUCKS FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE FIX ALREADY. WHAT DO I DO?>
DOOR AJAR CONTINUES TO STAY ON DESPITE DOORS BEING CLOSED. UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS (ALL DOORS) WHILE DRIVING. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON WHILE DRIVING MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT. UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS WITH KEYPAD. UNABLE TO TELL IF DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED OR NOT WHILE DRIVING.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR LIGHT AND INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT SHUT OFF WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. WILL NOT ALWAYS LOCK IF SENSOR BELIEVES DOOR IS AJAR. TAKES MANY ATTEMPTS TO GET SENSOR TO TURN OFF.
AT 89000 MILES I KEEP GETTING A "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" WARNING WHILE I AM DRIVING. I LOOKED ONLINE TO SEE THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE AT OR ABOUT THE 90K MILE MARK. THE BATTERY WILL DRAIN BECAUSE THE CAR THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN,THE LIGHTS STAY ON IN THE CAR THUS DRAINING BATTERY.
MY DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR IS FLAGGING THAT IT'S AJAR WHEN IT'S NOT.

ENGINE SURGED WHILE PARKING, FELT LIKE IT WOULD HIT CAR PARKED IN FRONT. REMINDED ME OF MY LINCOLN TOWN CAR 2007 THAT WOULD SUDDENLY ACCELERATE
MY 2013 FORD EDGE SEL HAS A "DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE INDICATOR THAT PREVENTS MY DOORS FROM LOCKING AND INTERIOR LIGHTS FROM GOING OFF WHILE DRIVING AND AFTER PARKING. I HAVE TO "REPEATEDLY" OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR TO TRY AND GET THE "DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE TO GO OFF AND ALLOW THE DOORS TO LOCK AND INTERIOR LIGHTS TO GO OFF. WHEN PARKING CAR AND LEAVING CAR, I REMOTELY LOCK THE DOORS, BUT THE "DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE STAYS ILLUMINATED AND INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON (WHICH ARE HARD TO NOTICE IN THE DAY TIME AND HAS CAUSED MY BATTERY TO DRAIN ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS) (THIS HAS "COST" ME ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO HAVE A TOW TRUCK TO COME AND ELECTRICALLY JUMP MY VEHICLE TO GET IT STARTED)... I THEN HAVE TO "REPEATEDLY" CLOSE THE DRIVER DOOR TO TRY AND GET THE "DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE TO GO OFF ALONG WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO A POLE. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED ARM, KNEE, AND BACK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED MAJOR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.
DOOR AJAR WARNING REGARDING DRIVER FRONT DOOR IS CONSTANTLY ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF. IN ADDITION, EVERY TIME I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, A SHIFT TO PARK NOTIFICATION APPEARS ON MY DASHBOARD AND IT MAKES A BEEPING SOUND. THIS IS A HUGE CONCERN AND MAJOR PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE. NEEDS TO BE FIXED IMMEDIATELY.
MY "DOOR AJAR" SENSOR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. I CAN NOT LOCK MY DOORS WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. IT HAS ALSO RUN DOWN MY BATTERY SO I HAD TO REPLACE MY BATTERY.
DRIVERS DOOR LATCH DOES NOT LOCK DUE TO A MALFUNCTION IN THE LATCH MODULE. THIS OCCURS WHILE IN MOTION WITH THE 'DRIVERS DOOR AJAR" WARNING COMING UP ON THE DASH.

ISSUE OCCURRED TWICE IN MY CAR WITHIN A MONTH. 1ST ONE, I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY IN SPEED OF AROUND 60 MILE/HOURS DUE TO TRAFFIC, ALL OFF SUDDEN A MESSAGE POOPED UP ON MY SCREEN TO PARK THE CAR. AS I WAS DRIVING INNER LANE SO COULD NOT PARK ON SHOULDER SIDE BUT PARKED INNER SIDE WHICH WAS VERY DANGEROUS. CAR LOST POWER AND DID NOT START BUT HEATER WAS ON WITH HIGH HEAT AND FAN. ALL LIGHTS WERE OFF COULD NOT SWITCH ON EMERGENCY LIGHTS. I TOWED MY CAR TO LOCAL SHOP IN THAT TOWN TO FIND THE ISSUE BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. THEY COULD MANAGE TO SHUT OFF THE HEATER AND NEXT DAY IT WORKED BUT THEY ASKED ME TO TAKE TO FORD DEALER SHOP. I TOOK THE CAR TO FORD DEALER SHOP IN MY TOWN BUT THEY ALSO DID NOT FIND ANY ISSUE AND ASSURE THAT ISSUE WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN AND SAFE TO DRIVE. WHICH WAS STRANGE TO ME THAT WITHOUT KNOWING THE ACTUAL REASON HOW THEY CAN BE SO SURE THAT THIS CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE AGAIN. 2ND INCIDENT WAS IN LOCAL STREET WHEN MY WIFE WAS REVERSING THE CAR FROM THE DRIVEWAY THEN STARING SUDDENLY LOCKED AND CAR GOT SHUT OFF. AS CAR WAS MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITH BABY SO FEW PEOPLE CAME TO HELP AND PUSH THE CAR BACK INTO THE DRIVEWAY. MY WIFE TRIED TO START AGAIN AND CAR GOT STARTED. WE TOOK THE CAR TO FORD DEALER SHOP AGAIN AND AGAIN THEY DID NOT FIND ANY ISSUE. FORD GAVE US CAR BACK AND MAKE SURE THAT THIS CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

DRIVER'S-SIDE DOOR CONSTANTLY SAYS "DOOR AJAR." LIGHT ON DASH DOES NOT GO OUT. IN-CAR ALARM CONSTANTLY DINGING, SAYING THE DOOR IS OPEN, WHEN IT IS CLEARLY LATCHED. AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS DO NOT WORK. CANNOT USE KEYLESS ENTRY BECAUSE THE CAR BELIEVES THE DOOR IS OPEN.
THE LATCH CAUSED A PROBLEM SO THE VEHICLE KEPT GIVING ME A "DOOR AJAR" WARNING. SINCE IT THOUGHT THE DOOR WAS AJAR, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD NOT GO OFF, EVENTUALLY CAUSING A DEAD BATTERY. THIS WAS A PROBLEM DRIVING AT NIGHT SINCE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WERE ON CONTINUALLY CAUSING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. IT ALSO WAS A PROBLEM FOR ME, AS A WOMAN I DIDN'T FEEL I COULD USE MY CAR FOR ACTIVITIES, ESPECIALLY IN THE EVENING, IF I HAD TO WORRY ABOUT COMING OUT TO A VEHICLE WITH A DEAD BATTERY AND NO HELP AVAILABLE. I HAD THIS REPAIR THROUGH MY LOCAL SHOP, SO I COULD TRUST USING MY CAR. THE COST OF THE REPAIRS WAS $392 WHICH WAS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON MOST OF THE FORD MODELS FOR THIS YEAR, BUT NOT THE EDGE. SAME PROBLEM...WHY AREN'T WE GETTING THE REPAIRS NEEDED AT NOT COST.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE CONTACT CLOSED THE VEHICLE'S DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, WHEN THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE SHIFT TO PARK WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS RELEASED, THE INDICATOR DIMMED. THE FAILURES RECURRED EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN. IN ADDITION, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE INTERIOR LIGHTING REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND DRAINED THE VEHICLE'S BATTERY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 22,000.
I HAD TO REPLACE DRIVER DOOR LATCH DUE TO ISSUES WITH DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING CONSTANTLY COMING ON WHEN DOOR WAS CLOSED WHILE PARKED OR MOVING ALSO CREATING PROBLEMS WITH DOME LIGHT, DOOR LOCKS AND ENTRY PAD. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE IT SEEMED TO BE PRETTY COMMON AMONG OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS WHICH CONFIRMED MY DECISION TO REPLACE THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LATCH. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 28,000 MILES.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT FOR DRIVER SIDE DOOR COMES ON INSPITE OF BANGING DOOR LOCKED AND DOES NOT GO AWAY AFTER SEVERAL TIME CLOSING HARD. CHECKED DOOR IS LOCKED AND LIGHT IS FALSE. SENSOR DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. SOMETIME THIS COME ON WHEN VEHICLE IN MOTION ON THE STREET. THIS WAS REPAIRED BY FORD DEALER IN TURNERSVILLE NJ 1.5 YEARS BACK WHEN VEHICLE WAS IN WARRANTY.
I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH TWICE. TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. JUNE 2015 AND FEBRUARY 2016
I HAVE A DOOR AJAR ISSUE WITH MY 2013 FORD EDGE. THE LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF WITHOUT SLAMMING MY DOOR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH, ALL THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED AND THE DRIVER SIDE WAS AJAR. THE CONTACT HAD TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE IN ORDER TO SECURE THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR AND PREVENT THE DOME LIGHTS FROM ILLUMINATING. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE LATCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR LATCH WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.
AT APPROXIMATELY 76,000 MILES, MY 2013 FORD EDGE'S BRAKES FAILED. I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES. THE BRAKES WERE HARD TO PRESS & THE VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN. I PRESSED DOWN HARDER & CAME TO A VERY HARD & SUDDEN STOP. THANKFULLY THERE WAS NO ONE FOLLOWING & I WAS ABLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I SLOWED & WITHIN A COUPLE OF SECONDS BRAKES BECAME RESPONSIVE AGAIN. I NEEDED TO GET HOME SO I DROVE AS SLOW AS POSSIBLE STAYING AWAY FROM OTHER CARS, HOWEVER BRAKES WORKED WITHOUT ISSUES. APPROACHING HOME THERE WERE MULTIPLE STOP SIGNS & AGAIN THE BRAKES LOCKED & THE CAR DID NOT STOP. I ALSO HEARD A LOUD WHISTLING NOISE IN THE CAR. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER & EVEN THOUGH THE DEALER SAYS THEY KNOW BRAKES ARE FAILING IN THE 2010-2013 FORD EDGES, THERE IS NO RECALL, ONLY A CUSTOMER SERVICE PROGRAM THAT DOES NOT APPLY TO MY VIN. THIS PROGRAM NUMBER IS 13N02 AND EXTENDS THE COVERAGE OUT TO 150K MILES ON SELECTED VEHICLE'S. I CONTACTED FORD @ 1-866-436-7332 TO EXPRESS MY PROBLEM & CONCERN. I SPOKE TO 4 DIFFERENT REPRESENTATIVES THAT ALL RECITED THE SAME SCRIPT. THE SCRIPT BASICALLY SAID SORRY YOUR CAR IS EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM AND TO HAVE A CERTIFIED FORD DEALERSHIP FIX IT AT MY COST. APPARENTLY SOMEONE DECIDED THAT THE EXPENSE OF THE ESTIMATED NUMBER OF PEOPLE THEY PUT AT RISK OF DEATH OR INJURY IS STILL LESS THAN WHAT IT WOULD COST THEM TO FIX THEIR FAULTY BRAKES. HERE IS THE KICKER, I BOUGHT THIS CAR CERTIFIED PRE OWNED IN EARLY 2016. HOW WAS FORD OF PORT RICHEY, ABLE TO CERTIFY THIS CAR WHEN THE BRAKES WERE ALREADY FAILING!!!!! THEY SOLD ME A DEATH TRAP! I HAVE DECIDED TO HAVE A LOCAL AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED SHOP FIX MY VEHICLE RATHER THAN LINE THE POCKETS OF FORD THAT SEEMED OK WITH PLACING MY FAMILY & OTHERS AT RISK WHILE BEING AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THE INSTALLED FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTERS.
MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN MY DOOR IS SHUT AND I HAD A DEAD BATTERY 2 TIMES
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GEAR SHIFTER FAILED TO DISPLAY THE PARK LIGHT WHEN THE CONTACT PLACED THE GEAR INTO PARK. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH A REPRESENTATIVE AT THE DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE GEAR SHIFTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 35,000. UPDATED 08/08/17*LJ
THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING ON BOTH THE DRIVER DOOR AND DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR. IT IS SO BAD ON THE PASSENGER DOOR THAT I DO NOT EVEN USE IT ANY MORE BECAUSE IT IS SO HARD TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OFF, SINCE IT STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE DRIVER DOOR IS ALSO EXTREMELY HARD TO GET THE SENSOR TO GO OFF, EVEN AFTER OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR MANY TIMES. I HAVE ALSO TRIED FLIPPING THE LOCK SWITCH OPEN AND CLOSED IN AN EFFORT TO GET THE SENSOR WORKING RIGHT SO THE LIGHT WILL GO OFF. MANY TIMES I AM DRIVING WITH THE INSIDE DOME LIGHTS ON. THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN TIMES WHEN THE LIGHT COMES ON WHILE I AM DRIVING. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING I HAVE GOOGLED FROM COMPRESSED AIR TO WD40 TO ELECTRICAL PARTS CLEANER, BUT THE FIX IS ONLY TEMPORARY. I AM ALMOST TO THE POINT OF CUTTING THE WIRE TO THE SENSOR SO THE DOOR AJAR ALARM AND LIGHT WILL GO OFF, BUT THEN THAT DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF THE SENSOR IN CASE THE DOOR WAS ACTUALLY AJAR. I HAVE SEEN THIS AS AN ISSUE SINCE 2011 AND I CANNOT BELIEVE IT HAS TAKEN FORD THIS LONG TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MY BROTHER-IN-LAW HAS AN EXPLORER WITH THE SAME LATCH/SWITCH AND HAS THE SAME PROBLEM.
DRIVER DOOR NOT LOCKING, DOOR MUST BE OPENED AND RE CLOSED SEVERAL TIMES. IF NOT ENGAGED, INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON DRAINING BATTERY AND CAR REMAINS UNSECURED AND PRONE TO THEFT. ALSO SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING THE UNLOCKED INDICATOR LIGHTS UP AND SOUNDS AND NOT SURE IF DOOR HAS TRULY UNLATCHED.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR MALFUNCTION. WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED THE ALARM WARNING KEEPS GOING OFF AND INSIDE LIGHTS STAY ON.
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHTS UP, DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND DOORS WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. WARNING DOES NOT GO OFF SO YOU HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE DOME LIGHT ON FOR A WHILE AND WHEN YOU PARK YOUR CAR THESE STAY ON AND IT CAN DRAIN YOUR BATTERY STRANDING YOU. THIS IS AN ONGOING EVERYDAY PROBLEM.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT WON'T GO OUT.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON EVEN WHEN ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED. LIGHT WILL COME ON WHEN DRIVING, DOME LIGHTS COME ON AND DURING NIGHT DRIVING THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND BLINDING. THIS WILL DRAIN THE BATTERY, NOT TO MENTION THE OUTRAGEOUS COST TO GET THIS "FIXED" AT A FORD DEALERSHIP. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE CARD USED FROM A FORD DEALER ONE YEAR AGO.
I HAVE HAD A RE-OCCURRING DOOR AJAR ISSUE WITH MY FORD EDGE EVER SINCE I PURCHASED IT. OVER TIME, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHTS COME ON AND OFF EVEN AS ALL THE DOOR ARE CLOSED. HAVE HAD THE ISSUE LOOKES AT BY FORD DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY CHARGE A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT TO REPAIR IT. WITHIN THE PAST WEEK, THE DOOR AJAR ISSUE IS NOW CAUSING THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON. I DID NOT USE MY CAR OVER THE WEEKEND, AND NOTICED 3 DAYS LATER THAT MY INTERIOR LIGHTS HAD BEEN ON FOR A WHILE. THE LIGHTS WERE EXTREMELY HOT, THAT ONE OF THEM WAS SMOKING. THE LIGHTS NOW WILL NOT TURN OFF BECAUSE OF HE DOOR AJAR ISSUE. WHEN I OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR OVER AND OVER AGAIN, THE DOOR AJAR ISSUE GOES AWAY AND THEN THE LIGHTS GO OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE ONE OF THE LIGHTS SMOKING. IN ADDITION, TOUCHING THE LIGHTS AFTER BEING ON FOR DAYS, COULD HAVE CAUSE BURNS ON THE SKIN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO A PARKING LOT AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND RESUME DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND WARNING COME ON WITH DOOR CLOSED. OPENING AND CLOSING DOOR ALLEVIATES THE PROBLEM AT TIMES.
THE DRIVERS SIDE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. IN THIS CONDITION THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AUTOMATICALLY AND THE WARNING CONTINUES TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY WHICH IS A DISTRACTION TO THE DRIVER. THE WARNING LIGHT AND ANNUNCIATOR COME IN WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY AND WILL GO QUIET WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION ONLY AFTER ACKNOWLEDGING THE WARNING BY DEPRESSING OK ON THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS. THE ALARM COMES IN AGAIN WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT
DOOR AJAR WARNING MALFUNCTION. THE DOOR AJAR ALARM WILL NOT CLEAR EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. THIS CAUSES THE DOORS TO REMAIN UNLOCKED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS UNDERWAY, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ILLUMINATED(EVEN AT NIGHT) WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR AND THE 'PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK' WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY AND CAUSED THE DOORS TO NOT BE ABLE TO LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,000.
DOOR AJAR SIGNAL ALARM FOR DRIVER SIDE DOOR SOUNDS WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. SHIFT INTO PARK AND CLOSE DOOR MESSAGE SHOWS ON SCREEN. TAKES THREE OR MORE TIMES CLOSING THE DOOR BEFORE SIGNAL WILL GO OFF. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK UNTIL THAT SIGNAL GOES OFF. OPTION TO PRESS OK IS GIVEN BUT THAT DOES NOT SOLVE THE SAFETY ISSUE. WARNING CONTINUES AT SPEED RATE OF 60 MPH OR MORE. INTERIOR DOME LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF IF DOOR AJAR SIGNAL IS STILL SHOWING ON COMPUTER SCREEN WHICH CAUSES DRAIN OF BATTERY POWER. 24,557 MILES ON 2013 EDGE. SAFETY RECALL NEEDED!!!!!!!
DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF. QUOTED $400 TO FIX FROM FORD DEALER
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR RANDOMLY FLASHED FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. THE CONTACT CONSTANTLY HAD TO OPEN AND CLOSE VARIOUS DOORS. THE INTERIOR LIGHTING AND DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR CONTINUED TO FLASH. THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM A MANUFACTURER RECALL TO ADDRESS THE DOOR AJAR FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WHEN DOORS CLOSED. SHIFT TO PARK COMES ON. MAKES THIS VERY DANGEROUS IN THE EVENT OF A REAL OCCURRENCE OF THE DOOR NOT BEING CLOSED PROPERLY. TAKES SEVERAL SLAMS OF THE DOOR TO SOMETIMES FIX IT. SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT TAKE CARE OF THE SITUATION. HAPPENS WHEN IN MOTION AND NOT OR SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT. FORD NEEDS TO MAKE A RECALL ON THIS AS MANY OTHERS ARE AFFECTED.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALERT COMES ON AND STAYS ON WILL NOT RESET, AT THE SAME TIME INTERIOR LIGHTING REMAINS ON FOR AN EXTENDED TIME AFTER TURNING CAR OFF AND EXITING. DRAINS THE BATTERY. THE DOOR LACKS ARE ALSO EFFECTED UNABLE TO LOCK WHILE CAR IS ON, THE AUTO LOCK NOT FUNCTIONING PLACING DRIVER AND PASSENGERS IN JEOPARDY. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ALSO EFFECTED WHEN DRIVING ESPECIALLY AT DARK DUE TO AN EXTENDED DELAY IN GOING OFF AFTER STARTING PROHIBITS BEING ABLE TO SEE OUTSIDE AND DRIVE SAFELY. HAVE REVIEWED MANY REPORTS FROM OTHER FORD OWNERS ON THIS SUBJECT ON YOU TUBE MANY OF WHIZ HAVE HAD VERY COSTLY REPAIRS DONE REPEATEDLY ON THE SAME PROBLEM, SOME PURCHASING PARTS TO REPAIR ONLY TO FIND THE PARTS WERE FAULTY AS WELL.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH WARNING EVEN WHEN DOOR IS LATCHED AND CLOSED PROPERLY. HAVE ALREADY TAKEN IT TO DEALER FOR A "FIX" APPROXIMATELY 1 YEAR AGO, AND NOW IT STARTED AGAIN. DOOR OPEN SENSOR STAYS ON, DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE WAS RECENTLY SERVICED TO CORRECT A PROBLEM WHICH WAS THE CAR ALARM COMING ON AND RANDOM TIMES AND AN INTERIOR LIGHT COMING ON TO SAY DRIVER DOOR AJAR. THIS DOOR AJAR LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING OFF AND ON FOR OVER A YEAR, I JUST LIVED WITH IT. WOULD SLAM THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING TO SEE IF IT WOULD GO OFF. ANNOYING. THE FORD DEALERSHIP IN ROSEBURG OR DID MY SERVICE WORK AS THEY DO SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED THE CAR FROM THEM. LOOKING ONLINE, I SEE THAT THIS PROBLEM WITH A FAILED DRIVER DOOR LATCH IS SOMETHING MANY FORD OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT. I FEEL THAT FORD HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THEIR PRODUCT AND I DON'T FEEL THAT US VEHICLE OWNERS SHOULD BE THE ONES FOOTING THE BILL TO GET A NEW LATCH INSTALLED TO FIX THEIR PROBLEM!! I PAID $555 TO GET THIS PROBLEM DIAGNOSED AND A NEW LATCH INSTALLED. THE PART ITSELF WAS $214.70 AND THE REST WAS FOR LABOR AND THE DIAGNOSIS. SEEMS VERY, VERY HIGH PRICE TO PAY FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT FORD SHOULD BE PAYING FOR.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON SAYING DOOR IS OPEN AND NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU SHUT THE DOOR IT STILL STAYS ON. BECAUSE OF THIS INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE STAYING ON AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN IN DRIVE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN YOU TURN ON THE VEHICLE EVEN IF YOU DID NOT OPEN THAT DOOR. IT STARTED WITH THIS JUST HAPPENING ONCE A WEEK AND NOW IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I START MY CAR. IT IS JUST ON THE PASSENGER DOOR.
I WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN IN THE MIDDLE OF A LARGE INTERSECTION WHEN I LOST ACCELERATION AND I HAD EXTREMELY LIMITED POWER ABOUT 2 TO 3 MILES PER HOUR. I COULD JUST BARELY "SLOWLY LIMP" OFF TO A SAFE PLACE OUT OF THE TRAFFIC. MY VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO MECHANIC AND MOST LIKELY WILL BE THE ETB ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. FORD SAID MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT LISTED ON THEIR RECALL LIST OR THEIR "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" YET THEY FIXED 1.6 MILLION OTHER CARS WITH THIS SAME VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT. FORD EDGE 2013. I AM VERY FEARFUL TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE ANYMORE AS IT IS NOT SAFE AND CAN BE A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITHOUT ANY WARNING!! ONLY 37,000 MILES. I CALLED AND MADE A FORMAL COMPLAINT TO FORD. ALSO THE ETB IS ON A LONG BACK ORDER WHICH MAKES SENSE BUT YET NO COMPLETE RECALL FROM FORD?? THIS IS INDEED A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT FOR THE CONSUMERS AND THE PUBLIC'S SAFETY!
DOOR AJAR SWITCH IS IS INOPERABLE, WHICH PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM BEING LOCKED WHEN THE CAR IS UNDERWAY. IT ALSO CAUSES THE LIGHTS THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE TO STAY ON (ILLUMINATED) AT ALL TIMES CAUSING A TREMENDOUS DRAIN ON THE BATTERY , LEADING TO REPEATED BATTERY REPLACEMENT (WHICH IN ITSELF AN ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN). FORD KNOWS THIS SWITCH IS INFERIOR AND STILL THEY REFUSE TO RECALL IT.
MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH SEEMS TO BE FAILING. MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ONE WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. I'M NOT SURE IF IT ACTUALLY IS OR NOT. IT HAS YET TO OPEN ON ITS ON, BUT UPON SOME RESEARCH IT APPEARS THIS COULD HAPPEN. WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SAYS ITS AJAR THE DOORS WON'T LOCK. I'VE HAD TO OPEN AND CLOSE MY DOOR A DOZEN TIMES JUST TO GET THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO SHUT OFF. THIS HAPPENS ON A DAILY BASIS. I'VE ALSO HAD THE GOOD FORTUNE OF GETTING IN THE CAR AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON. THEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, START MY WAY DOWN THE ROAD ONLY FOR THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO COME ON AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON AS WELL. MORE OFTEN THAN NOT THOUGH, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON IMMEDIATELY. AGAIN, I'M NOT SURE IF IT'S SENSOR, OR IF THE DOOR LATCH IS MALFUNCTIONING. I'M NOT SURE IF THE DOOR IS EVEN LATCHED WHEN I'M DRIVING. I'VE LOOKED ONLINE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A COSTLY ISSUE TO REPAIR. FORD SEEMS TO HAVE DONE A RECALL ON CERTAIN MAKES EXCEPT THE EDGE.
VEHICLE DOES NOT LOCK CORRECTLY. THIS OCCURS DAILY AT RANDOM PLACES WHILE PARKED. LIGHTS STAY ON DRAINING THE BATTERY. ALARM GOES OFF RANDOMLY AT DAY OR NIGHT WAKING ME AND NEIGHBORS ALMOST EVERY NIGHT. IT IS 4 AM ALARM WENT OFF AND I JUST SPENT 30MIN TRYING TO FIX THE DOOR BECAUSE LIGHTS ARE STILL ON.
A FEW THOUSAND MILES AGO I REPLACED THE DOOR LATCH ON THE DRIVERS DOOR DUE TO FAILURE, AND NOW THE LEFT REAR SENSOR HAS FAILED. THIS RESULTS IN CABIN LIGHTING SUDDENLY COMING ON, REFUSING TO GO OFF, AND LEAVING MY VEHICLE ILLUMINATED WHEN PARKED. WHEN FIRST OCCURRED, I PULLED OVER ON A BUSY HIGHWAY TO ASSURE MY DAUGHTER (IN THE REAR SEAT) WAS SAFE AND THE DOOR WOULDN'T FLY OPEN. RECOGNIZING IT NOW AS A SENSOR, AND THE SECOND ON THIS VEHICLE, I'M SHOCKED TO SEE THAT FORD STILL THINKS THIS IS OK AND SHOULD NOT BE ADDRESSED.
DOOR LATCH SENSER IS MALFUNCTIONING. WITH IT DOING THIS THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE OPERATING THE CAR. LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN NOT IN USE. AND ALARM WILL GO OFF WHEN EVER IT DECIDES TO WHILE NOT IN USE. DUE TO CAR SENSING THE DOOR IS AJAR. THIS MAKES THE CAR AVAILABLE TO BE PLUNDERED BY BURGLARY. WHILE IT DRAINS THE BATTERY. THE LIGHTS WILL GO OFF EVENTUALLY. BUT DRIVER DOOR ( THE ONE CAUSING ISSUES) WILL NOT RESPOND KEYFOB. WHEN I USE SET OF KEYS NUMBER 2 ( MY SET) IT WON'T RESPOND TO THEM TILL I LOCK CAR AND REMOTE START SITTING INSIDE THE AUTOMOBILE. EVERY TIME YOU STOP THE CAR WILL SOUND AN ALARM AND TELL YOU TO SHIFT INTO PARK AND CLOSE DOOR, EVERYTIME!! EVEN WHEN YOU PHYSICALLY LOCK DOORS THE CAR WILL UNLOCK THEM. (POSABLY SO WE CAN GET CAR JACKED) IT IS A DESIGN FLAW. REPLACING THE MECHANISM ISN'T THE WHOLE ANSWER. I HAVE FRIENDS WHO HAVE DONE THAT ONLY TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE POP UP IN SEVERAL MONTHS. THEN THEY ARE OUT ABOUT $600. PLEASE DEAL WITH THIS IT IS ON SEVERAL MAK S AND MODELS OF FORD. I LIKE THE COMPANY, BUT AM GETTING TIRED OF THE RUN AROUND. IT STARTED IN 11/01/16 TO CURRENT. SAD PART IS IT USE UP COME AND GO. NOT ANYMORE.
DOOR AJAR LATCH/SENSOR CONTINUES TO STICK WHICH KEEPS THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON AND KEEPS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS AND PARK LIGHTS ON AFTER TURNING OFF CAR, CLOSING DOOR, AND LOCKING CAR. INTERIOR LIGHTS AND PARK LIGHTS ARE HARD TO NOTICE DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS AND THIS RESULTS IN DRAINING BATTERY WHICH LEAVES THE OWNER STRANDED. THIS HAPPENS REPEATEDLY!
DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS CONTINUALLY ON AND REQUIRES STOPPING PUTTING IN PARK AND OPENING AND CLOSING DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND IS BEING ADDRESSED FOR OTHER FORD MODELS BUT NO THE EDGE PLEASE CONSIDER INCLUDING IT IN THE CURRENT RECALL 16S30. THIS OCCURS WHILE BOTH STATIONARY AND MOVING.
CONTROL PANEL STATES DOORS AJAR AND LIGHTS WON'T TURN OFF OR DOORS WON'T LOCK. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CREATES DANGEROUS CONDITIONS AT NIGHT WHEN TRYING TO BACK OUT OR WHILE DRIVING. LIGHTS WILL ALSO COME BACK ON WHEN STOPPED AT STOP LIGHT AND WON'T GO BACK OFF UNTIL A CERTAIN RATE OF SPEED HAS BEEN MET DUE TO THE SYSTEM THINKING THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT'S NOT. DOORS WILL ALSO NOT LOCK WHEN CAR IS OFF AND DOME LIGHT STAYS ON DRAINING BATTERY TILL THE BATTERY IS DEAD SITTING IN PARKED POSITION. IT IS ALSO CLIMATE SENSITIVE AND IS WORSE ON COLD OR HUMID DAYS. BOTH THE DRIVER AND THE DRIVERS PASSENGER DOOR IS AFFECTED AND CREATES EXTREMELY DANGERS DRIVING CONDITIONS. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS AND CONTINUES TO GET WORSE.
RECEIVED A DOOR AJAR MESSAGE FOR DRIVER SIDE DOOR ON INSTRUMENT PANEL AND INTERIOR LIGHT WOULD STAY ON EVEN THOUGH DOOR WAS CLOSED. DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING AND WOULD HEAR A CONSTANT DINGING SOUND AND WOULD RECEIVE A MESSAGE ON CONSOLE SAYING SHIFT TO PARK. THE DOOR LATCH HAD TO BE REPLACED ON 3/13/17 AND COST $590. THE MILEAGE ON THIS VEHICLE IS 42,716 WHEN THE LATCH FAILED AND WAS REPAIRED.
THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT KEEP COMING ON FOR MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR EVEN THOUGH ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED AND FULLY LATCHED. THE LIGHTS STAY ON AFTER THE THE CAR HAS BEEN PARKED AND ALL DOORS CLOSED, CAUSING THE BATTERY TO DRAIN QUICKLY. THE WARNING WILL ALSO COME ON WHILE I AM DRIVING AND EACH TIME I COME TO A STOP. PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. IT WILL DO IT MOST OF THE TIME AND THEN OCCASIONALLY, THE DOOR AJAR WILL WORK PROPERLY.
THE ADVANCE TRAC WARNING LIGHT COMES ON IF THE CAR HAS BEEN IDLING FOR MORE THAN 5 MINUTES. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON AND SAY MY TRACTION CONTROL IS OFF. THE CAR ONLY HAS 38,000 MILES. I HAVE HEARD THAT OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE WITH THE FORD EDGE. ONCE I START MOVING THE WARNING LIGHT WILL EVENTUALLY GO AWAY AFTER A FEW MINUTES.
THE FRONT, DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH IS DYSFUNCTIONAL. THE SENSOR DOES NOT CORRECTLY READ WHEN THE DOOR IS OPEN AND CLOSED. IT WILL NOT READ WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED, SO THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. PLUS, THE DOOR AGAR SWITCH DINGS. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT DRIVING DURING THE NIGHTTIME WHEN THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF BECAUSE OF THIS DYSFUNCTIONAL SENSOR. PLUS, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK BECAUSE THE SENSOR READS INCORRECTLY. I RECENTLY ATTEMPTED TO LOCK MY DOORS BECAUSE I WAS AT A STOP-LIGHT IN A ROUGH PARTY OF TOWN, BUT THEY WOULD NOT LOCK BECAUSE THE SENSOR READS MY DRIVER'S DOOR AS "OPEN." I WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER FORD BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON WHEN DOOR IS SHUT AND INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. IN ADDITION, EACH TIME YOU STOP AND RESUME DRIVING THE CHIMES DING WHICH DISTRACT DRIVER. IF YOU DO NOT NOTICE INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE ON WHEN YOU LOCK YOUR CAR, BATTERY WILL BE DEAD WHEN YOU RETURN. IN ADDITION TO A INCREASED POSSIBILITY OF A MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT THIS DEFECT ALSO SUBJECTS YOU TO BEING VICTIM OF A CRIME WHEN YOU RETURN TO A STRANDED VEHICLE AND HAVE TO WAIT FOR ASSISTANCE TO ARRIVE.
SENSOR FOR DRIVER DOOR KEEPS COMING ON WHEN DOOR IS CLEARLY SHUT. THIS CAUSES BATTERY TO DRAIN, INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON, DOORS TO NOT LOCK, AND CONSTANT BEEPING. RESEARCHED IT AND TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND ARE PAYING $300+ TO FIX IT AND HAVING IT HAPPEN A YEAR LATER AGAIN.
COMPLAINT--NOT SURE DRIVERS DOOR IS SECURLELY LATCHED WHILE DRIVING. DRIVER DOOR WARNING LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. OTHER TIMES WARNING LIGHT WILL COME ON WHILE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN. ANOTHER WARNING LIGHT SAYING "SHIFT TO PARK" COMES ON WHILE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON. TSB 150013 DONE BY DEALER 7/23/2015 @ 31,833 MILES. THIS TSB IS TO CLEAN THE SWITCH CONTACTS BUT DO NOT REPLACE SWITCH. . CURRENT MILEAGE 3/7/2017 53,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT LATCH ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. CONTACTED FORD DEALER, I MUST PAY FOR REPAIR. CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE @ 888-270-1055 3/7/2017 WAS TOLD NO HELP FROM FORD. WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. COST OF REPAIR $150.00 PARTS $!87.00 LABOR PLUS 6% SALES TAX.
THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON WHILE STATIONARY. IT WILL NOT GO OFF EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED. THIS HAS DRAINED MY BATTERY. SUMMIT FORD HAS QUOTED $600 TO FIX.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR WAS CONSTANTLY DISPLAYED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE AFFECTED THE DOOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 35,760.
DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. CAUSED DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON AND HAS DRAINED THE BATTERY. ONLY SOLUTION IS TO SLAM THE DOOR.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD,AND WON'T SHUT THE DOME LIGHTS OFF AFTER SHUTING OFF VEHICLE AND EXITING AND SHUTING DOOR.ITS HAPPENED MANY TIMES MOVING AND STATIONARY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOME LIGHT INSIDE THE VEHICLE REMAINED ILLUMINATED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND LOCKED. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE ALARM SOUNDED AND THE DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR SENSOR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SWITCH MECHANISM INSIDE THE DOOR FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED, BUT RECURRED AFTER SIX MONTHS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO AGAIN DIAGNOSED AND REPLACED THE SWITCH MECHANISM. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,797.
2013 FORD EDGE HAS A CONTINUAL PROBLEM WHERE DOOR SENSORS ON 2 OF 4 DOORS INDICATE THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR, WHEN IT IS ACTUALLY CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON (AND STAY ON) WHEN STARTING THE CAR OR WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEED, WHICH IS DANGEROUS, PARTICULARLY AS IT INTERFERES WITH NIGHT VISION. THE DOORS WON'T LOCK DUE TO THIS WARNING MESSAGE. THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS AFFECTED BY THIS SENSOR PROBLEM, WHICH ALSO CAUSES A BELL WARNING THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR, AND REPEATED DASH WARNINGS TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. REPEATEDLY SLAMMING THE DOOR CLOSED TEMPORARILY HELPS, SOMETIMES. THE DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR WAS FIXED (BUT NOT REPLACED) WHILE THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. THE PROBLEM RETURNED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS. WHEN I TOOK IT IN THE SECOND TIME, I HAD THE DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR CLEANED (THE DEALER WANTED ALMOST $400 FOR THIS, BUT REDUCED IT TO $260 AFTER MY COMPLAINT, VS $500 TO REPLACE EACH SENSOR) WHICH WAS HELPFUL FOR LESS THAN 2 MONTHS. THIS IS A DANGEROUS, KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE DEFECTIVE DOOR SENSORS THAT IS HIGHLY DISTRACTING FOR DRIVERS, WHICH INTERFERES WITH NIGHT VISION, AND THE ABILITY TO LOCK THE CAR DOORS WHILE DRIVING. THE FORD DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, BUT WILL NOT REPAIR IT FOR FREE (NO RECALL ISSUED). THESE DOOR SENSOR ERRORS HAPPEN EVERY TIME I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE CURRENTLY (80,500 MILES), WHEREAS IT WAS A FREQUENT YET INTERMITTENT PROBLEM FROM ABOUT 30,000 TO 60,000 MILES. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON WHEN STARTING THE CAR, AS THEY SHOULD, THEN THE WARNING MESSAGES COME ON ON THE DASH, AND BOTH THE LIGHTS AND THE WARNINGS STAY ON WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. SOMETIMES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS AND WARNINGS WILL COME ON WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS, FOR NO APPARENT REASON; WHEN THIS HAPPENS AT NIGHT, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PART AND PROTECT DRIVERS.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS LIT ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHT TO STAY ON AS WELL! CAUSING BATTERY TO DRAIN. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED (12/8/14), WENT TO DEALERSHIP AND HAD TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED, FORD SPLIT THE COST. SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED 2/28/16; IF I HAVE TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED AGAIN, WILL SELL IT AND NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD!
THE "PASSENGER DOOR AJAR" SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE, CAUSING LIGHTS TO STAY ON AND PREVENTING LOCKING OF THE DOOR.. DOORS CAN NOT BE LOCKED FROM DRIVER SIDE WITH "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT ON, COMPROMISING SAFETY AND SECURITY.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE DRIVER'S DOOR INCORRECTLY STATES THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR AT ALL TIMES. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON INITIALLY WHEN DRIVING, OR EXITING CAR. CAR BEEPS AND FLASHES A WARNING WHICH IS DISTRACTING/DANGEROUS. CAR WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS RELATED TO THE ONGOING INVESTIGATION, I JUST WANTED TO ADD THAT MY VEHICLE STARTED EXPERIENCING THIS ABOUT A MONTH AGO. THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT AT FIRST, BUT IS NOW CONTINUOUS.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON THE DRIVER SIDE. MY LIGHT CAME ON 2 MONTHS AGO AND I HAVE READ 139 COMPLAINTS ON THIS PROBLEM. CUSTOMERS PAYING 400 FOR IT TO BE FIXED AND THEN THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND FORD SEEMS NOT TO CARE.
WHEN YOU GET IN THE CAR AND START THE ENGINE (WHILE STILL IN PARK) THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT. WE MUST OPEN AND RECLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES IN ORDER TO GET THE WARNING LIGHT TO GO AWAY.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND HAVE TO SLAM DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO FINALLY GO OUT. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAYS ON UNTIL DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS CLEARED AND OF COURSE DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED CONSTANTLY. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE BATTERY TO DIE EACH TIME. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,375.
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY GOING 65MPH ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WHEN MY CAR DECELLERATES AND I LOSE POWER. I MANAGED TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND HAD TO RESTART MY CAR.
02 VEHICLE KEEPS STALLING WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. LEAVING AN INTERSECTION, IN TRAFFIC, IT WILL NOT GO, IS GOING TO GET ME KILLED. DEALERSHIP IS AWARE OF PROBLEM AND HAS NOT SOLVED IT. I LOOK ON INTERNET AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS WITH SAME PROBLEM
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SWITCH/ALARM REMAINS ON WHEN THE DRIVERS DOOR IS FIRMLY CLOSED WHEN STATIONARY AND WHEN IN MOTION. THIS CAUSES THE DOME LIGHT TO REMAIN ON WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO SEE, DANGEROUS, TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN DRIVING WHICH CAN BE UNSAFE. THIS CONDITION IS CONSTANT ON ANY TYPE OF STREET OR ANY PARKING SITUATION. MY EDGE HAD AROUND 31,000 MILES WHEN THIS PROBLEM STARTED.
I HAVE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER'S DOOR OF MY '13 FORD EDGE LIMITED INDICATING THAT IT IS AJAR (WARNING AND INTERIOR LIGHTS ON) WHEN IT IS NOT. IN ORDER FOR IT TO QUIT, I HAVE TO EITHER VERY FIRMLY CLOSE THE DOOR (SLAM IT) OR OPEN AND CLOSE IT A FEW TIMES UNTIL IT SENSES THAT IT IS IN FACT FULLY CLOSED. IT IS ALSO DRAINING MY BATTERY BECAUSE WHEN I EXIT THE VEHICLE SOMETIMES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW OCCASIONS THAT I HAD TO JUMP START MY CAR. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND IN MOTION.
THE PASSENGER DOOR AJAR LIGHT UP SOMETIMES WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED SECURELY. THIS LEAVES ME UNCERTAIN IF I HAVE A HAZARDOUS CONDITION OR NOT. CONCERNED ABOUT IGNORING THE SAFETY WARNING LIGHT WHEN I HAVE A REAL DOOR PROBLEM. CREATES AN UNSAFE CONDITION THAT MUST BE PHYSICALLY CHECKED EACH OCCURRENCE.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN DRIVING
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AT ALL TIMES EVEN THOUGH ALL DOORS ARE FULLY LATCHED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON MAKING DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS AT NIGHT. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THE DOOR AJAR BELL GOES OFF AT ALL TIMES, EVEN THOUGH THE DOORS ARE FULLY LATCHED.
DRIVERS SIDE "DOOR OPEN" DASH INDICATOR IS ACTIVE WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED, BOTH IN PARK AND WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS OCCASIONALLY COME ON DURING DRIVING, THEN GONE OFF AGAIN. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN CAR IS OFF, LEADING TO A DRAIN ON THE BATTERY AND I EVENTUALLY HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY. THE ONLY WAY TO OCCASIONALLY MAKE THE LIGHT GO OFF IS TO REPEATEDLY OPEN AND THEN SLAM THE DOOR CLOSED. I ALSO FEEL THE ANTI THEFT FEATURES AND OVERALL LOCKING MAY BE COMPROMISED AS I HEAR THE HORN "DOUBLE BEEP" WHEN USING THE REMOTE CONTROL KEY FOB LOCK, INDICATING THAT A DOOR IS STILL "OPEN".
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS CLOSED, THE "DOOR AJAR" INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND A BELL-LIKE ALARM SOUNDED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE DOORS REMAINED UNLOCKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR SWITCH WAS STUCK AND THAT THE DOOR SWITCH ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 19,000.
FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS I HAVE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH A MESSAGE TELLING ME THAT THE DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR. THE MESSAGE TELLS ME TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND SHUT THE DOOR. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES TO GET THE MESSAGE OFF, SOMETIMES IT WILL WORK BUT MOST OF THE TIME I END UP SHUTTING AND RESHUTTING THE DOOR TO GET THE MESSAGE OFF. AND WHILE THE MESSAGE IS ON THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. SOMETIMES I SPEND HOURS TRYING TO GET THE MESSAGE OFF. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IT IS A SENSOR. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED. A RECALL MUST BE MADE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM. ALSO, IN ADDITION TO THE LIGHTS STAYING ON, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. IT IS VERY ANNOYING AND NOT SAFE. ALSO, I AM WORRIED THAT THE BATTERY WILL RUN DOWN. I AM GETTING TO THE POINT THAT I DON'T EVEN WANT TO DRIVE THE CAR.
DOOR ADJAR LIGHT STAYS ILLUMINATED EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. DOME LIGHTS STAY ON CAUSING BATTERY TO DIE. VEHICLE CHIMES WHILE DRIVING CAUSING MILD DISTRACTION.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON WHEN ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, DOME LIGHT COMES ON AND WARNING SOUNDS ARE CONSTANT WHEN STARTING FROM A STOPPED OR SLOW POSITION.
A LIGHT INDICATING 'DOOR AJAR' RANDOMLY APPEARS EVEN THOUGH DOOR SEEMS TO BE CLOSED. THERE IS NO SOLUTION EXCEPT TO REPEATED SLAM DOOR SHUT MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL LIGHT DISAPPEAR. FORD REFUSES TO COVER THIS PROBLEM UNDER WARRANTY.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF AND IS NOW CAUSING THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON AFTER THE CAR IS OFF - CAUSING A DEAD BATTERY. THE SENSOR IS PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE - HARDER AND HARDER TO GET IT TO SHUT OFF.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS PROPERLY CLOSED. CAUSES INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON MAKING IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND NOT LETTING THE DOORS LOCK.
CAR IS STATIONARY. DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS SHOWING THE INTERIOR LIGHT REMAINS ON WHICH MAKE IT DANGEROUS TO BACK UP AT NIGHT. THIS ALSO CAUSES THE BATTERY TO DIE. DOOR AJAR CHIME CONSTANTLY GOING OFF EVERY THREE TO FIVE MINUTES.
EVERYTIME I GET IN AND OUT OF MY CAR THE DRIVER'S DOOR WON'T LOCK. THIS LEAVES ME IN A VULNERABLE AND UNSAFE POSITION WHEN DRIVING OR PARKING AT WORK OR THE STORE. I COULD BE CARJACKED IF MY DOOR IS STILL UNLOCKED AND I COULD BE ROBBED OF MY POSSESSIONS WHILE IN THE STORE OR AT WORK SINCE MY DOORS WON'T LOCK. WOULD YOU WANT YOUR LOVED ONES/RELATIVES FOUND IN THIS POSITION/SITUATION? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL?
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF EVEN AFTER SHUTTING THE DOOR NUMEROUS OF TIMES. THIS CAUSES THE INSIDE LIGHT TO STAY ON DRAINING THE BATTERY AS WELL AS THE DOOR AJAR ALARM TO KEEP GOING OFF EVERY 3 MINUTES.
SENSOR SAYS DRIVERS DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS NOT IN AN STATIONARY POSITION. DOOR HAS TO BE CLOSED SEVERAL TIMES TO BE ABLE TO LOCK DOORS AND DRIVE.
WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE THE DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON. THIS HAPPENS ALL OF THE TIME. WHEN PARKED THE DOME LIGHT COMES ON AND RUNS THE BATTERY DOWN.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED AND LATCHED CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON UNTIL A CERTAIN SPEED IS ATTAINED. ALSO DOOR LOCKS DO NOT WORK WHEN THE WARNING LIGHT IS ON.
DOOR AJAR LIGHTS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM
DRIVER DOOR AJAR - COMES ON CONSTANTLY. RECENTLY HAD TO GET A NEW BATTERY BECAUSE THE INSIDE LIGHTS STAY ON. I PUT CAR IN PARK AS INSTRUCTED AND SLAM THE DOOR. IT DOESN'T WORK VERY OFTEN. 90% OF THE TIME IT DOESN'T WORK. ALSO THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK. IF THERE ARE CHILDREN IN THE CAR, THEY CAN OPEN THE DOOR AND FALL OUT OF THE CAR. THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.
ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS IN THE LAST THREE MONTHS THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR HAS MALFUNCTIONED ON THE FORD EDGE. THESE ISSUES SURFACED TWICE WITH THE DRIVER'S DOOR AND ONCE WITH THE REAR DRIVER'S PASSENGER DOOR. DESPITE BEING CLOSED, THE SENSOR ACTIVATES TO SHOW THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. THE LIGHTS ON THE VEHICLE STAY ON, THE ALARM SOUNDS. THE REPAIR COSTS FOR THIS PROBLEM ARE AROUND $500 PER INCIDENT. A QUICK SEARCH OF THE INTERNET FINDS THIS TO BE A REOCCURRING PROBLEM FOR MANY FORD EDGE OWNERS BUT NO ONE AT FORD OR THE GOVERNMENT WILL HELP ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. I'M WRITING FOR YOU TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE.
DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AT 70 MILES PER HOUR ON STRAIGHT LEVEL AND SMOOTH SECTION OF HIGHWAY WHEN A SUDDEN LOUD EXPLOSION OCCURRED, AND GLASS COULD BE HEARD FALLING. DRIVER STOPPED TO ASSESS DAMAGE. GLASS HAD SHATTERED AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE STATIONARY PORTION OF THE PANORAMIC SUNROOF. THERE WAS NO FLYING ROAD DEBRIS AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THERE WAS NO APPARENT EVIDENCE OF IMPACT. THIS APPEARS TO BE EITHER A PROBLEM WITH THE MANUFACTURING OF THE GLASS OR THE WAY IN WHICH IT IS ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE. TEMPERATURE WAS NEAR FREEZING AND WARMING.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON FROM BAD DOOR SENSOR ON DRIVERS DOOR. THIS IS OUR 2ND EDGE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THE ISSUES CAUSED BY THIS IS THE BATTERY DRAINS, LIGHTS STAY ON INSIDE VEHICLE WITH NO WAY TO TURN THEM OFF OTHER THAN BY REMOVING FUSES AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AS IT THINKS THE CAR DOORS ARE OPEN.
OPENING/CLOSING DRIVER SIDE DOOR; DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED WHICH LEAVES ON INTERIOR LIGHTS AFTER EXITING THE VEHICLE. IT HAS STARTED TO OCCUR MORE OFTEN WITHIN THE LAST MONTH, APPROX 85,000 MILES. WHEN THE DRIVER AJAR LIGHT IS ON MY DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT ENGAGE/INITIATE DURING DRIVING LIKE THEY SHOULD NORMALLY DO. CONTACTED USED CAR DEALER AND THEY SUGGEST THE CHARGE TO FIX CAN RANGE FROM 195.00-450.00, DEPENDING ON THE ISSUE, SENSOR REPLACEMENT ETC..... *TR
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT HAS STARTED COMING ON REGULARLY EVEN THOUGH ALL DOORS ARE SHUT. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING AND I GET A "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING. I THEN HAVE TO PULL OVER AND SLAM THE DOOR SHUT SEVERAL TIMES TO CLEAR IT. IT'S BECOMING A HASSLE AND LIGHTS STAY ON SO IT DRAINS THE BATTERY. THIS IS A DEFECT AND FORD SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND FIX THIS ISSUE. IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED. *TR
DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS CLOSED. VERY ANNOYING AND FRUSTRATING. HAVE TO CLOSE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET IT TO GO OFF. CAR HAS ONLY 36,000 MILES ON IT. AFRAID MAY RUN BATTERY DOWN BECAUSE LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF. TIRED OF HAVING TO KEEP SLAMMING DOORS TO GET IT STOPPED. RESEARCHED AND FOUND OTHER OF THEIR MODELS DID THIS AND WERE RECALLED BUT FOR SOME REASON THEY WON'T DO THE EDGE. *TR

I HAVE TO UNBOLT THE BATTERY TO MAKE THEM GO OUT. HAVE ALREADY HAD TO BUY ONE BATTERY. I CANT LOCK DOORS AT A STOP SIGN WHICH IS UNSAFE. THIS IS A DAILY CONSTANT OCCURRENCE. OTHERS ARE EXPRESSING SAME ISSUES. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. THE DOOR AJAR FIRST HAPPENED 10/9/14 AT 32,156 MILES. TOOK TO FORD DEALERSHIP. IT STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN IN NOVEMBER 2016 AND HAS MORE ISSUES AND NOW IS A SAFETY CONCERN. I ALSO AM NOTING THAT I HAVE GONE OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND MY OVERHEAD LIGHT IS ON INSIDE THE CAR. *TR

THE CONTACT HAD TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING WENT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000. .....UPDATED 03/08/17 *BF *CN
DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHT TO STAY ON AND ALARM TO GO OFF IF ITS PARKED AND LOCKED. CLOSING THE DOOR UP TO 10 TIMES MAY CAUSE THE WARNING LIGHT TO GO OFF. IF I START DRIVING THEN THE WARNING MESSAGE TELLS ME TO SHIFT INTO PARK AND CLOSE MY DOOR. IF I IGNORE IT THEN IT STARTS BEEPING AT ME TO GET MY ATTENTION. PRESSING THE OK BUTTON TO BYPASS IT DOES NOT WORK MORE THAN A FEW SECONDS ITS BACK. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR WEEKS NOW. *TR
DOOR AJAR WARNING SYSTEM WILL NOT DEACTIVATE. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON, VERY DANGEROUS WHEN BACKING UP AT NIGHT. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND WARNING IS VERY DISTRACTING NOTIFYING DRIVER TO SHIFT CAR INTO PARK. THIS WARNING OCCURS IN ALL PHASES OF OPERATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHENEVER THE HEATER OR AIR CONDITIONER WERE BEING USED, THE VEHICLE WOULD EMIT STRONG FUEL ODORS AND CAUSED THE OCCUPANTS TO FEEL LIGHT HEADED, HAVE HEADACHES, AND STOMACH ISSUES. THE DEALER REFUSED TO DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR WAS NOT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

FUEL LEVEL DROPS DRAMATICALLY, THE FUEL INDICATOR WILL DROP UP TO 20 MILES PER EVERY MILE OF ACTUAL MILEAGE. GAS SEEMS TO BE LEAKING AND ODOMETERS WILL SKIP NUMBERS.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR REMAINS ON.
DRIVER'S SIDE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT ALONG WITH ASSOCIATED ALARMS ("SHIFT INTO PARK") GOES OFF WHEN CLOSING THE DOOR. THIS WARNING ALSO KEEPS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON, THUS POTENTIALLY DRAINING THE BATTERY. BACKING UP IN THE DARK IS IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE SO BRIGHT, NOTHING CAN BE SEEN OUTSIDE. MY TEMPORARY SOLUTION HAS BEEN TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY WHEN I'M PARKED FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME. MY CONCERNS ARE; WILL THIS BE HAPPENING TO ALL 6 DOOR SENSORS, HOW LONG WILL THESE FAULTY SENSORS LAST, WILL THEY FIND A REDESIGN FOR THIS SENSOR THAT LASTS LONGER THAN 34K MILES AND WHAT IF THE DOOR REALLY ISN'T CLOSED? FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAS ALREADY RECALLED THIS SENSOR/MODULE ON OTHER MODELS (FOCUS, ETC) OF THIS YEAR. BECAUSE THERE AREN'T AS MANY EDGES ON THE ROAD ISN'T A GOOD REASON TO NOT WANT TO MAKE THE CORRECTION FOR ALL MODELS INVOLVED.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON, EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT. DRIVER FRONT AND PASSENGER FRONT.
FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR. THE FRONT DOOR MECHANISM WILL NOT LOCK. THERE IS A CONSTANT WARNING CHIME AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. THE WARNING IS " DRIVER DOOR AJAR".

THIS OCCURS AFTER STARTING THE CAR IN PARK AND CONTINUES WHILE DRIVING.
DOOR SENSOR REFLECTS DOOR OPEN 3RD OR 4TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND DOME LIGHT REMAINS ON.
MY TRUCK DISPLAYS "SHIFT TO PARK" WHEN IN PARK AND THE INDICATOR IS NOT ILLUMINATED WHETHER THE ENGINE IS OFF OR ON. I HAD TO REPLACE A BATTERY DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS OFF THE ELECTRONICS STAY ON DRAWING POWER BECAUSE IT'S NOT SENSING THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK. THIS PROBLEM IS WIDELY KNOWN AND FORD HAS A TSB FOR THE SHIFTER BUT NO RECALL. I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE AND WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER FORD AGAIN.
THE DRIVERS DOOR GIVES ERROR UPON CLOSING INDICATING THE DOOR IS AJAR. AFTER CLOSING DOOR MANY TIMES THE MESSAGE IS STILL THERE. WHEN THE DOOR IS AJAR THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT FUNCTION MEANING YOU ARE VULNERABLE TO A CAR JACKING BECAUSE YOUR DOORS WON'T LOCK. WHEN YOU GET OUT THE CAR THE SAME ISSUE BUT THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON UNTIL THE FAILSAFE TIMES THEM OUT FOR EMERGENCY SHUTOFF BUT, THE DOORS ARE STILL UNLOCKED. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BECOME WORST IN THE WINTER TIME. I DO NOT EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM DURING THE WARM SUMMER MONTHS.
BOTH FRONT LEFT AND REAR LEFT DOOR SENSORS SHOW THAT THE DOORS ARE OPEN ALTHOUGH ITS FULLY CLOSED. THEREFORE THE CABIN LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED. MY 2.5 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER OPENED THE DOOR WHILE I WAS DRIVING ALTHOUGH THE DOORS WERE SUPPOSED TO LOCKED. *TR
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF WHEN DRIVERS DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. THIS CAUSES DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON UNTIL CAR IS MOVING CAUSING A VISIBILITY PROBLEM.

2013 FORD EDGE FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE. A FUEL LEAK IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE MAY RESULT IN A FIRE. LEAVING THE RESIDENCE. ONCE PASSED THE CONTROL OF THE SECURITY AGENT OF THE RESIDENCE. I ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE NORMALLY AND THEN HEAR A RATHER DEAFENING NOISE. I STOP THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY AND PROCESS TO EXIT THE VEHICLE QUICKLY AS I FEEL THE BODY WARM. ONCE I GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND RUN TO A SAFE PLACE ABOUT 40 FEET AWAY, I THROW MYSELF ON THE GROUND AND LOOK AT THE VEHICLE AND SEE THAT THE VEHICLE IS BURNING. I CAN SEE THAT THE FIRE IS CONSUMING THE VEHICLE AND CAN OBSERVE FIRE INSIDE THE VEHICLE COMING OUT OF THE WINDOWS AND FIRE THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE THAT GOES FROM THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE DOWN THE SIDE. AND THE FIRE RUNS TO THE GAS TANK.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE DOORS WERE CLOSED, THE DOME LIGHT AND DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LATCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER THE WARRANTY, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED A SECOND TIME. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000. ..UPDATED 02/09/17 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE LATCH WAS REPAIRED AT THE COST OF $315.95. *TR
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHTS STAYS ON WITH DOOR SHUT.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON WHEN ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED AND LOCKED. DOME AND EXTERIOR SIDE MIRROR LIGHTS STAY LITE DUE TO THIS. CAR IS IN PARK AND IF YOU SHIFT INTO DRIVE WHEN THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON THEN THE CAR TELLS YOU TO SHIFT INTO PARK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAY ON. THIS STARTED THE WEEK ON DEC 19, 2016 AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING CONTINUOUSLY THROUGH OUT THE WEEK AND WEEKEND. CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN TO FORD TODAY 12/28/2016 AND OF COURSE THEY'RE ARGUING ITS NOT A SERVICE BULLETIN WHICH MEANS I WILL PROBABLY END UP PAYING THE DEDUCTIBLE ON MY EXTENDED WARRANTY TO GET IT FIXED WHEN THIS IS CLEARLY A FORD ISSUE.
AT APPROXIMATELY 46,000 MILES, MY 2013 FORD EDGE'S BRAKES FAILED. I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE BEHIND A SEMI TRUCK WHEN THEY HIT THE BRAKES. BRAKES WERE LOCKED, HARD TO PRESS AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THANKFULLY THERE WAS NO ONE ON THE FOLLOWING LANE AND I WAS ABLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I DECELERATED AND WITHIN A COUPLE OF SECONDS BRAKES BECAME RESPONSIVE AGAIN. I NEEDED TO MAKE IT HOME, DROVE TRYING TO GO AS SLOW AS POSSIBLE AND STAYING AWAY FROM OTHER CARS, HOWEVER BRAKES WORKED WITHOUT ISSUES. APPROACHING HOME THERE WAS A STOP SIGN AND AGAIN I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT WHEN THE BRAKES LOCKED AND THE CAR DID NOT STOP. THIS TIME A LOUD WHISTLING NOISE FILLED THE CABIN. TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY, EVEN THOUGH THE DEALER SAYS THEY KNOW BRAKES ARE FAILING IN THEIR F150'S AND FORD EDGES, THERE IS NO RECALL, AND THEY MADE ME PAY A DEDUCTIBLE TO FIX THE CAR THAT IS UNDER WARRANTY. APPARENTLY SOMEONE DECIDED THAT THE EXPENSE OF THE ESTIMATED NUMBER OF PEOPLE THEY PUT AT RISK OF DEATH OR INJURY IS STILL LESS THAN WHAT IT WOULD COST THEM TO FIX THEIR FAULTY BRAKES. HERE IS THE KICKER, I BOUGHT THIS CAR CERTIFIED PRE OWNED IN JULY 2016. I GOT MY CAR BACK TODAY, THEY FIXED THE FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTERS AND THE CABIN IS UNCHARACTERISTICALLY QUIET. SINCE I HAD BOUGHT THE CAR THERE WAS A QUIET HISS WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES AND THE SALES PERSON TOLD ME THAT WAS NORMAL FOR THE CAR, I NEVER HAD A FORD BEFORE AND THE BRAKES DID WORK ORIGINALLY SO I DIDN'T GIVE IT ANOTHER THOUGHT. BUT NOW THAT ITS QUIET I KNOW THAT THE BRAKES WERE FAILING AT THAT POINT. HOW WAS BILL CURRIE FORD IN TAMPA, ABLE TO CERTIFY THIS CAR WHEN THE BRAKES WERE ALREADY FAILING!!!!! THEY SOLD ME A DEATH TRAP!
SOUNDS LIKE THE AXEL IS FALLING COMPLETELY OFF COMPLETELY DISENGAGING FROM THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL. AFTER CONSULTING WITH LOCAL DEALERSHIP, THEY STATED IT APPEARS THE AXEL IS COMING OUT OF THE TRANSMISSION DUE TO SOME VALVE. DEALERSHIP STATED IT IS NOT COVERED ON THE SAME RECALLS AS THE OTHER 2013S THOUGH IT APPEARS IT IS THE SAME ISSUE.
I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH A SENSOR ON THE VEHICLE. I HAVE A "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. IT IS ON THE DRIVER DOOR AND NO OTHERS. I KNOW THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH FORD SUVS AND JUST WANT MY VEHICLE DOWN FOR DOCUMENTATION. IF ANY FURTHER INFORMATION IS NEEDED BY ME PLEASE EMAIL OR CALL ME.
DRIVER DOOR LATCH; DOOR WON'T LOCK OR STAY LOCKED INTERMITTENTLY; DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. WHEN THE INTERMITTENT PROBLEM OCCURS, THE DOORS UNLOCK, THE DOME LIGHT COMES ON, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT OR EARLY MORNING. THE BATTERY IS DRAINING-THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED. IT WILL NOT LOCK FROM OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY. THIS STARTED EARLIER THIS MONTH AN IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED NOW! FROM MY RESEARCH, THIS IS A LONG STANDING ISSUE WITH FORD PRODUCTS. *TR
REAR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMING ON WHEN DOOR CLOSED COMES ON WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING ALARM AND ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON. STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED AND LATCHED. DEALER SAYS DOOR LATCH MUST BE REPLACED, EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS PROPERLY LATCHING. *TR
THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING APPEARS EVEN WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED. RESULTING IN MULTIPLE ERRORS WITHIN THE SYNC SYSTEM AND THE INABILITY TO TURN OFF THE CABIN LIGHTS. THIS PROBLEM CAN OCCUR WHILE STATIONARY OR IN MOTION.
DRIVERS DOOR LATCH FAILED AGAIN. WAS REPLACED UNDER FORD ORIGINAL WARRANTY WITH CAMELBACK FORD BUT HAS FAILED FOUR MONTHS LATER AND NOT UNDER WARRANTY. DEALER CAMELBACK FORD HAS NO INTEREST AND REPAIRING WITHOUT PAYING $642.00 TO REPAIR. I GUESS NO WARRANTY ON THEIR WORK.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, NONE OF THE DOORS WOULD LOCK WHEN PROMPTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 86,000.
WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT, VEHICLE CONTINUES TO STATE THE DOOR IS AJAR. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON. WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO SEE OUT OF YOUR REAR VIEW MIRROR. BECAUSE OF THIS, WHEN YOU BACK UP, YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING BEHIND YOU.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING , AND THE LIGHTS STAY ON 10 MINS AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF . *TR
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR MECHANISM IS FAULTY AND WILL NOT READ MY DOOR AS CLOSED RESULTING IN BEING STRANDED WITH A DEAD BATTERY. AFTER BEING FIXED IT CONTINUES TO REAPPEAR.
MY DRIVER DOOR NO LONGER REGISTERS AS 'CLOSED' WHEN IT IS IN FACT CLOSED. THIS PROBLEM HAS PROGRESSIVELY WORSENED FOR A COUPLE MONTHS. THE PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR NOT REGISTERING AS LATCHED AND CLOSED MEANS THAT YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOOR WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING. EVERY TIME YOU ATTEMPT TO LOCK IT AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKS IT. AT THIS POINT I HAVE REMOVED ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS (THAT STAY ON) SO I CAN OPERATE THE VEHICLE SAFELY AT NIGHT UNTIL I HAVE TIME TO GET THIS FIXED. I'M JUST SIX MONTHS PAST THE NORMAL 3YR/36K MILES WARRANTY PERIOD AND FORD DEALERSHIP IS QUOTING A REPAIR CHARGE OF NEARLY $500 TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND HAS BEEN PART OF A LARGE RECALL FOR OTHER FORD VEHICLES, BUT NOT AT THIS TIME FOR THE EDGE. IT'S A REAL NUISANCE. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON CONSTANTLY WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED. THE INSIDE LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF CAUSING A DRAIN IN THE BATTERY. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY ONCE DUE TO THIS ISSUE. PLEASE FIX IT NOW FORD, WE WILL PROBABLY NOT BUY A FORD AGAIN IF THIS IS THE LEVEL OF CUSTOMER CARE THAT WE ARE EXPECTING TO RECEIVE.
THIS ISSUE STARTED A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO. I WOULD BE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY OR STREET AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY MAINTENANCE LIGHT WOULD COME ON, MY CAR WOULD BEGIN TO SHAKE/RATTLE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I COULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. IF I COULD, I WOULD PULL OVER, SOMETIMES I HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION ON AN INCLINE AND COMPLETELY SHUT MY CAR OFF. I WOULD WAIT A FEW SECONDS AND IT WOULD START BACK UP AND RUN NO PROBLEM. I TOOK IT INTO 1 FORD AND THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. I TOOK IT INTO A 2ND FORD EARLIER THIS YEAR IN MARCH AND THEY CLAIMED THEY FOUND THE ISSUE. I SPENT OVER $1,000 REPLACING THROTTLE BODY AND FUEL FILLER NECK, WHICH THEY CLAIMED HAD A LEAK IN IT AND WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. SINCE THEN, I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES, UNTIL YESTERDAY. AGAIN, I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND MY MAINTENANCE LIGHT CAME HOME, CAR STARTED SHAKING AND COULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AS I'M AFRAID EVERY TIME I MAKE A TURN IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC THAT MY CAR IS GOING TO LOSE POWER AND I'M GOING TO GET T-BONED. I'VE READ ON CARCOMPLAINTS.COM THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE FORD HAS A BIG LAWSUIT ON HAND. THEY BETTER FIX THIS! *TR
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL RANDOMLY COME ON LIGHTING UP THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR. OR IT WONT GO OFF WHEN ENTERING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 9 MPH, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. AFTER FOUR ATTEMPTS, THE DOOR WAS SECURELY CLOSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR SAYS IT IS AJAR, BUT IT'S NOT AJAR.
FORD DOOR LATCH ISSUE- THE DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT LATCH WHEN DOOR IS SHUT THIS CAUSES THE LIGHTS TO COME ON IN THE VEHICLE AND WARNINGS TO APPEAR ON THE DASH (DOOR AJAR, SHIFT TO PARK, ETC). I HAVE ISSUES WITH MY CAR LOCKING BECAUSE THE DOORS APPEAR TO BE OPEN. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP CLEANED THE LATCH FOR ME AND THIS TEMPORARILY SOLVED THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER A FEW MONTHS LATER AND ITS HAPPENING AGAIN. THIS IS UNSAFE WHEN I AM DRIVING AS I DO NOT KNOW IF THE DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT. IT ALSO IS A DISTRACTION WHEN ALL OF THE LIGHTS ARE ON AND THERE ARE WARNINGS FLASHING ON THE DASHBOARD. *TR
FAULTY ELECTRONIC SENSOR CAUSED DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO COME ON WHICH CAUSED SHIFT TO PARK LIGHT TO COME ON AND CAUSED INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS TO COME ON AND NOT DIM WHILE IN GEAR. PREVENTED WINDOWS FROM BEING RAISED OR LOWERED DURING ALLOTTED TIME ONCE CAR WAS TURNED OFF. VEHICLE WOULD NOT STAY LOCKED.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED WHILE DRIVING, AFTER EXITING THE VEHICLE. IT APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO THE DRIVER'S DOOR. I HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES AND VERY HARD. IN FACT, I HAVE TO SLAM IT SO HARD I FEAR I MAY BREAK THE WINDOW. IT IS A TREMENDOUS SAFETY ISSUE. ALL THE DOORS WILL UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE THE SENSOR IS NOT REGISTERING. THIS IS MY SECOND TIME DEALING WITH THIS MATTER. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY...UGH! *TR
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR SENSOR STATES THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. THIS LEAVES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON. THE INABILITY TO LOCK THE DOOR. IT ALSO DEPLETES THE BATTERY BECAUSE THE COMPUTER IS STILL ACTIVE.
MY DRIVER DOOR SENSOR CONSTANTLY TELLS ME THAT MY DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT, CAUSING THE DOORS NOT TO LOCK, INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON, A CONSISTENT BEEPING NOISE ALERTING ME, AND DRAINING MY BATTERY SEVERAL TIMES. THIS IS UNSAFE.
DOOR AJAR SWITCH ON DRIVERS DOOR MALFUNCTION. INDICATES DOOR AJAR AT ALL TIMES, THUS DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING, INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON, DASH TELL-TAIL LIGHT AND WARNING SIGNAL. UNSAFE CONDITION EXIST BECAUSE OF FAILURE OF LOCKS FOR CHILD SAFETY, DURING VEHICLE MOVEMENT. ALSO UNABLE TO ENGAGE VEHICLE LOCKS AND ALARM SYSTEM DUE TO FAULTY SWITCH, AS VEHICLE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE DOOR IS CLOSED. *TR
MY INTERIOR LIGHTING STAYS ON WHEN I AM IN REVERSE BECAUSE THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR IS ALWAYS ON, I ALMOST HIT MY NEIGHBOR AND CLIPED HIS DOG BECAUSE IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT THE BACK WINDOW WHEN BACKING WHILE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE ON. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM. I HAVE FILED ON THIS BEFORE BUT NOW IT HAS BECOME A REAL PROBLEM. WHAT IF I HAD HIT MY NEIGHBOR? SAFETY ISSUE.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET, THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING IS DISPLAYED ON THE DIGITAL INSTRUMENT PANEL, ALONG WITH INSTRUCTIONS TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AND THE DOME LIGHTS BEING TURNED ON. OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR WILL MAKE THE WARNING GO AWAY FOR A FEW MINUTES, BUT IT INVARIABLY RETURNS BEFORE MUCH TIME PASSES. THIS HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AS WELL. *TR
THE DOOR SWITCH TO LOCK DOORS DOES NOT ENGAGE LIGHTS STAY ON DOORS DO NOT LOCK IT DRAINS BATTERY
DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR SENSOR DOOR AJAR. TOOK TO DEALER IN JC, KS $315 PROBLEM "FIXED"APRIL 2016. JULY 27, 2016, I PUT MY MOTHER'S STUFF IN BACKSEAT AND LOCK DOOR. "PING AND A PLINK" AND SOMETHING FALLS TO THE BOTTOM OF DOOR. WHEN I REACH MY DESTINATION, THE DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK. CAR WAS STATIONARY.
DOOR OPEN SENSOR REMAINS ACTIVE EVEN WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE AUTO-LOCKING DOES NOT FUNCTION, INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN LIT AND INDICATOR LIGHTS/ALARMS DO NOT SHUT OFF. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND CAN ONLY BE SOLVED BY REPEATEDLY OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR UNTIL THE SENSOR ACTIVATES, WHICH DOESN'T ALWAYS HAPPEN. THE PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT 30 DAYS AGO.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH HAS FAILED RESULTING IN INABILITY TO LOCK THE DOORS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. ADDITIONALLY, AS THE DOOR IS NOT BEING SENSED AS BEING CLOSED, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON ALONG WITH THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT. THIS DRAINS THE BATTERY. THE INABILITY OF THE DOORS TO NOT STAY LOCKED AS A RESULT OF THIS LATCH FAILURE IS A SAFETY ISSUE.
I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY DOOR AJAR PROBLEM THAT I AM HAVING WITH MY VEHICLE. I HAVE CHILDREN AND IF THE DOOR AJAR IS ON THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK. IT ALSO MAKES THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN I STOP MY VEHICLE IT CONSTANTLY IS MAKING DINGING NOISES AND TELLING ME TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND SHUT MY DOOR. I AM STILL VERY CONCERNED ABOUT ALL THESE ISSUES, ESPECIALLY FOR MY CHILDREN. I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY RECALLS OUT FOR THIS ISSUE AND I HAVE SEEN MANY ISSUES ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS GOING ON IN SEVERAL FORD VEHICLES. *TR
2013 FORD EDGE RECENTLY STARTING SHOWING "DOOR AJAR" INDICATORS ON MY MESSAGE CENTER. ADDITIONALLY, THIS MESSAGE CAUSES A "SHIFT TO PARK" MESSAGE ON THE MESSAGE CENTER AS WELL. WHAT STARTED OUT AS A RANDOM MESSAGE IS NOW A DAILY MESSAGE AND I HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE DOORS REPEATEDLY IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET RID OF THE MESSAGE. NIGHT DRIVING IS NO LONGER AN OPTION AS I AM BLINDED BY INTERIOR LIGHTS WHEN I CAN'T GET THE SENSOR TO ENGAGE AND RECOGNIZE THAT THE DOORS ARE CLOSED. DURING THE DAY I RUN THE RISK OF HAVING A DRAINED BATTERY IF I CAN'T SEE WHETHER OR NOT THE LIGHT HAS GONE OUT WHEN I EXIT THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE SENSOR DOESN'T FUNCTION CORRECTLY MY KEYLESS ENTRY IS USELESS AS WELL. I FEEL THIS IS CERTAINLY A SAFETY ISSUE, FORD EVEN LISTS THE DOOR AJAR WARNING SWITCH ASSEMBLY AND LOCK LEVER ASSEMBLY UNDER "SAFETY" IN MY CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED COVERAGE GUIDE. I AM PAYING THE $100 DEDUCTIBLE TO HAVE THE SWITCH RESET AS THE DEALER DOESN'T WANT TO REPLACE SOMETHING THE DOESN'T HAVE TO. FORD SHOULD JUST BITE THE BULLET AND ISSUE THE RECALL FOR THIS, THEY LISTED IT UNDER THE SAFETY CATEGORY TO STAY IT'S NOT A SAFETY ISSUE IS WRONG. IF THE SWITCH ISSUE WAS THE FLIP AND THE LIGHT WARNING DIDN'T ILLUMINATE WHEN IN FACT THE DOOR WAS OPEN THAT WOULDN'T BE A SAFETY ISSUE? I THINK NOT. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD FORDS, THIS USED CPO EDGE IS CLOSEST AUTO I HAD TO NEW IN MY LIFE, I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH MY OTHER USED OLD FORDS, I'M DISAPPOINTED HOW FORD MANAGEMENT IS HANDLING THIS. FORD ISSUE THE RECALL AND LETS GET THIS DONE. *TR
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WITH DOOR CLOSED. WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO LOCK IT SOMETIMES. KEEPS INTERIOR LIGHT ON WEARING OUT THE BATTERY. PROBLEM IS PERSISTENT.
BRAKE BOOSTER ON FORD EDGE FAILED SUDDENLY AT 60-70K MILES. NOTICED IT SUDDENLY WHEN DRIVING THE CAR ONE AFTERNOON. AT THE FIRST STOP LIGHT, HAD TO STOMP ON THE BRAKES TO SLOW THE CAR TO A STOP, BECAUSE NORMAL BRAKE PRESSURE HAD HARDLY ANY EFFECT. KNEW SOMETHING ELSE WAS WRONG, BECAUSE BRAKE PADS AND CALIPERS WERE RECENTLY REPLACED. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE COVERED UNDER CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02, HOWEVER MY VEHICLE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED A FEW MONTHS AFTER THE 5/3/10-3/28/13 MANUFACTURING WINDOW COVERED BY THE PROGRAM. THEREFORE FORD HAS REFUSED TO FIX MY ISSUE. THIS IS INSANE SINCE MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED IN EXACTLY THE SAME WAY AND WITH THE SAME PARTS AS THE OTHER VEHICLES COVERED. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, AS THE BRAKES ARE VERY DIFFICULT TO ENGAGE FULLY. THE PROGRAM ALSO STATES THAT "THE FUNDAMENTAL BREAKING SYSTEM REMAINS FUNCTIONAL" AND "THE EFFORT REQUIRED TO STOP THE VEHICLE WILL INCREASE GRADUALLY" IN REALITY YOU HAVE TO STOMP THE BRAKE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR WITH HARD PRESSURE TO SLOW THE CAR EVEN A LITTLE BIT. I WOULD NOT CALL THAT "FUNCTIONAL". PEOPLE WILL PROBABLY DIE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. AND IT'S RECKLESS FOR FORD TO HAVE PICKED SOME ARBITRARY MANUFACTURING DATES TO BE COVERED. POSSIBLY THEY HAVEN'T RECEIVED ENOUGH COMPLAINTS YET FROM THE ONES PRODUCED JUST AFTER THIS BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL A LITTLE NEWER? THIS IS *TR
CAR DOOR SENSOR GOES OFF WHILE DRIVING AND WILL NOT STOP IN TILL I REPEATEDLY SHUT THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING THE ALARM GOES OFF AND PUTS THE DRIVER IN SUDDEN ALARMING MODE AND IN NEED OF PULLING OVER QUICKLY AND AT TIMES NOT ABLE. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK IN SEPT 2016 AND IT STARTED 1 WEEK AFTER DRIVING THE CAR AND CONTINUES. *TR
ON 9/6/16 I HAD TO HAVE THE LEFT REAR DOOR LATCH REPLACED BECAUSE IT CAUSED A 'DOOR AJAR' LIGHT TO COME ON. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE DOORS WON'T LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF AT THE PROPER TIME. NOW TWO MONTHS LATER THE LEFT FRONT DOOR LATCH NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM.
THE DASH SAYS THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS CLOSED. I HAVE SEEN WHERE THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SENSOR OR LATCH GOING BAD. I AM HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS. *TR
WHILE DRIVING THERE WAS AN SUDDEN UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER AND HAD TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER ON THE EDGE OF THE ROAD CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM THE THROTTLE. AFTER THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF FOR ABOUT 1 MINUTE THEN RESTARTED, IT WAS ACTING NORMAL AND WAS ABLE TO MERGE BACK INTO THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC ALSO IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. *TR
WHEN I CLOSE MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND START MY 2013 FORD EDGE, IT THINKS MY DOOR IS AJAR. THIS IS A LATCH PROBLEM AND THE VEHICLE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. AS A RESULT, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM ON THE WEB. I AM HOPING THAT THE NHTSA WILL FORCE FORD TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND FIX THE PROBLEM
DRIVER SIDE DOOR KEEPS ALARMING THAT IT IS NOT CLOSED EVEN IF DOOR IS CLOSED. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT WON'T LOCK THE VEHICLE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS THE ALARM WHICH DISTRACTS THE DRIVER.
"DOOR AJAR" LIGHT AND CHIME HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR.
WHEN GETTING READY TO START THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT WILL COME ON WHEN THE DOOR IS FIRMLY SHUT CAUSING US TO CONTINUALLY SLAM AND SHUT THE DOOR UNTIL IT EVENTUALLY GOES OFF. THE LIGHT WILL ALSO COME ON WHEN YOU SHIFT INTO DRIVE AND THE DOORS AUTO LOCK CAUSING THE REPEAT ACTION OF CLOSING THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET THE WARNING LIGHT TO GO OFF. THIS ALSO CAUSES THE DOORS TO NOT LOCK FORCING A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MY GRANDCHILDREN. THIS HAPPENS WHILE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION ON BUSY STREETS CAUSING US TO OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING AND/OR PULLING OVER TO DO THE SAME UNTIL THE LIGHT EVENTUALLY GOES OFF AND THE DOORS LOCK. MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN FORCED TO CLIMB IN AND OVER TO THE DRIVERS SIDE THROUGH THE PASSENGER SIDE TO AVOID OPENING THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. I CAN NOT DO THIS DUE TO A BAD BACK.
I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE SPORT EDITION THAT HAS HAD ISSUES WITH THE DOOR SENSORS SHOWING THAT THE DOOR IS A-JAR. THIS STARTED TO OCCUR SHORTLY AFTER WE PURCHASED THE CAR IN SEPTEMBER OF 2013. IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE TO WHERE THE DASH PANEL CONTINUOUSLY SHOWS THAT ONE OF THE DOORS IS A-JAR, EVEN WHEN OPEN AND CLOSING THE DOOR CONTINUOUSLY SEVERAL TIMES TO TRY TO CLEAR THE WARNING MESSAGE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE WE CANNOT BE CERTAIN THAT THE DOORS ARE SECURED PROPERLY AND SAFELY DURING TRAVEL. ALSO, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING, OR WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK WHILE IDLING. THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE DOORS COULD BE OPENED WHILE DRIVING, AND THE CAR CANNOT BE SECURED WHILE IN PARK AND IDLING. IF A STRANGER ATTEMPTED TO ENTER THE CAR WHILE STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION, OR WHILE DRIVING VERY SLOWLY, YOU CANNOT PREVENT THE INDIVIDUAL FROM ENTERING THE CAR BECAUSE THE DOOR LOCKS IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK DUE TO SENSING THAT THE DOOR IS A-JAR. THE PICTURE I UPLOADED OF THE WARNING MESSAGE CLEARLY SHOWS THE DRIVING SPEED WHILE THE DOOR A-JAR IS ILLUMINATED. I WISH I WOULD HAVE KNOWN THIS WAS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH THE 2013 FORD EDGE, I WOULD HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT SOONER. I HOPE THAT FORD WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DEFECT AND FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE. OTHER THAN THIS DEFECT I LOVE MY 2013 FORD EDGE SPORT.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND WARNING DINGS WHEN THE DOOR IS DEFINITELY SHUT. IF I OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES IT WILL SOMETIMES GO OFF. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE DOOR CANNOT BE LOCKED WHEN THIS HAPPENS, CREATING A SAFETY ISSUE. CAUSES BATTERY TO DRAIN BECAUSE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH LIGHTS ON WHICH MAKES NIGHTTIME DRIVING DANGEROUS. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THIS VEHICLE AND FORD NEEDS TO RECALL IT.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR INDICATOR WILL SOMETIMES GIVE FALSE READING THAT DOOR IS AJAR. DOME LIGHT WILL STAY ON AND NOT ABLE TO LOCK DOORS.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT AND IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE HOW MANY TIMES YOU SLAM THE DOOR CLOSED. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK IF THE CAR DOES NOT BELIEVE THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS, THE DOOR COULD POTENTIALLY OPEN DURING AN ACCIDENT OR I COULD BE CARJACKED OR MY FAMILY COULD BE PULLED OUT OF THE CAR WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT OR INTERSECTION. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE TO NOT BE ABLE TO LOCK YOUR AUTO WHILE TRAVELING. ALSO, SINCE THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS UNRELIABLE THE DOOR MAY NOT BE CLOSED AND COULD FLY OPEN WHILE TURNING CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. IN ADDITION IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE IF THE DOOR AJAR OR REVERSE SENSING IS DINGING, WHICH DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF THE BACK UP CAMERA. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE I DEPEND A GREAT DEAL ON THE BACK UP CAMERA TO MAKE SURE I DO NOT BACK INTO SOMEONE. AT FIRST THE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON ONLY ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME, BUT NOW THE LIGHT STAYS ON ABOUT 99% IF THE TIME.
THE (DRIVERS SIDE) DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND CHIME COMES ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED, CAUSING DISTRACTED DRIVING AND ENCOURAGES PEOPLE TO OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING OR PULL OVER IN LESS THAN IDEAL AREAS TO PERFORM THE PROCEDURE. EVENTUALLY THIS DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND YOU HAVE TO PRESS THE OK BUTTON ON THE STEERING WHEEL REPEATEDLY. EVENTUALLY THIS DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM EITHER AND PEOPLE ARE FORCED TO FIND COST EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS ONLINE. DISABLING THE FEATURE TO AVOID CONSTANT CHIMING AND ALARMS GOING OFF THEN RESULTS IN DISABLING THE FEATURE ALTOGETHER WHICH COULD RESULT IN A DOOR BEING PARTIALLY OR COMPLETELY OPEN WITH DRIVER OR PASSENGERS NOT KNOWING. MAY BE PART OF ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE INVOLVING DEFECTIVE LATCHES. WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER FORD VEHICLE AGAIN OR RECOMMEND THEM TO OTHERS. THIS HAPPENS WHILE STATIONARY OR MOVING, SO AFTER SLOWING TO AQ STOP (STOP SIGN) AND THEN MOVING AGAIN.
DOOR AJAR ERROR HAPPENING WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. ERROR CAUSES BEEPING, DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON, AND PREVENTS LOCKS FROM LOCKING, ALL WHILE CAR IS MOVING. THE LIGHTS STAY ON FOR EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME CAUSING ME TO REPLACE THE BATTERY.
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
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE CONTACT OPENED THE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. ALL OF THE DOOR LOCKS FAILED TO WORK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED FOR AT LEAST SIX MONTHS. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PREVIOUSLY FOR THE SAME FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED THIS TIME. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,948.
MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR FLEW OPEN WHILE I WAS TURNING ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. AS MENTIONED IN MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS, I TOO HAVE THE ISSUE OF THE DRIVER SIDE LIGHT DISPLAYING "AJAR". BECAUSE OF THIS ALMOST ACCIDENT, I NOW OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR AS MANY TIMES AS IT TAKES TO MAKE SURE THE LATCH IS CLOSE AND THE LIGHT IS OFF. MY LIFE MATTERS.
WHEN I CLOSE THE DRIVERS DOOR THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE LIGHTS SHINING IN MY EYES. ALSO, THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED WITH THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON. WITH THE DOORS NOT LOCKING I COULD BE CARJACKED OR MY GRANDDAUGHTER COULD BE PULLED OUT OF THE CAR WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT OR INTERSECTION. WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE AND THE DOOR IS NOT RECOGNIZED TO BE SHUT, THE INTERIOR AND OUTSIDE MIRROR LIGHTS STAY ON. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE SINCE MARCH AND HAVE LESS THAT 45000 MILES ON IT.. THE PROBLEM STARTED SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WITH LESS THAT 40000 MILES. FORD SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THE PROBLEM.
AFTER 30,000 MILES WE TOOK OUR 2013 FORD EDGE FOR SERVICE AND FOR $800 THEY CHANGED OIL, ROTATED TIRES, ETC. THEY ALSO NOTICED THAT OUR BRAKES AND ROTORS HAD TO BE REPLACED DUE TO WEAR AND RUST. THIS COST AN ADDITIONAL $700. WE HAVE DRIVEN NUMEROUS VEHICLES AND KEPT THEM TO 100,000 MILES AND HAVE NEVER HAD THIS CONCERN.

WHEN I CLOSE MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND START MY 2013 FORD EDGE, IT THINKS MY DOOR IS AJAR. THIS IS A LATCH PROBLEM AND THE VEHICLE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. AS A RESULT, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM ON THE WEB. I AM HOPING THAT THE NHTSA WILL FORCE FORD TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND FIX THE PROBLEM
LEAVING STORE PARKING LOT, WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AS I LOST ALL POWER TO ACCELERATOR. I COULD STEP ON GAS BUT NOTHING HAPPENED, ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS STILL WORKED. I QUICKLY THREW THE CAR IN REVERSE AND WAS ABLE TO AVOID ROLLING INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. WHEN I OPENED THE HOOD, THE ENGINE WAS SHAKING A LOT! I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND MY FAMILY AND I TOOK A TAXI HOME, LEAVING OUR 6 DAY OLD CAR IN AN EMPTY PARKING LOT. THE NEXT DAY THE CAR TURNED ON AND I DROVE IT TO A SAFER PARKING LOT WITH NO PROBLEMS?

HAD THE USED EDGE ALMOST ONE YEAR NOW AND THIS IS THE 3RD THIRD TIME TAKING TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME BLINKING PROBLEM. IT IS A 3 YEAR OLD CAR WITH ONLY 40K MILES. FIRST TIME WAS ANNOYING BUT THE DEALERSHIP WAS PROFESSIONAL AND FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. SECOND TIME I WAS PISSED BECAUSE I HAD GOTTEN ONLINE AND DID RESEARCH ABOUT THIS APPARENTLY VERY OBVIOUS AND COMMON ISSUE !!!!FORD!!!! AND TO TOP IT OFF THE WARRANTY HAD JUST RAN OUT SO I WAS FORCED TO PAY A 100 DEDUCTIBLE. I WAS REALLY STEAMED BY THIS POINT. AND GUESS WHAT NOW...THIRD TIME ... THE TECH SAID WELL MAYBE IT JUST A PROBLEM WITH THE PART? SO I ASKED ARE THE PARTS NOT COVERED HE SAID JUST FOR 30 DAYS !? SERIOUSLY? I TOLD THEM THEY ARE EATING THE COST ON THIS NOT ME. THE DEALER WILL BE PAYING FOR THE CRAPPY PART THAT DOESNT LAST NOT ME. I IMAGINE I WILL BE TALKING TO THE AUTONATION OWNER AT SOME POINT... THIS IS SO STUPID. MY WIFE WAS IN DOWNTOWN LA IN A PARKING GARAGE AND IN TRAFFIC AT NIGHT WITH UNLOCKED DOORS AND HER INTERIOR LIGHT ON BECAUSE FORD IS SO ATE UP WITH PROFIT THAT THEY WILL NOT FIX THIS. ALL THE DEALERSHIPS SHOULD EAT THE COST EVERY SINGLE TIME... MAYBE ONCE THEY DO IT SOMETHING WILL BE DONE.,SHE IS NOT DRIVING THE CAR UNTIL I GET SOMETHING DONE. POS. UNBELIEVABLE THAT IT TAKES THIS MANY REPAIRS AND COMPLAINTS AND NOTHING BEING DONE. I NEED TO FIND OUT ALL THE REPAIRS ON THIS CAR BEFORE I GOT IT.. BET I SEE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE PRIOR OWNER. SAME PROBLEM.WHILE ENGINE IS ON, CAR PLACED IN DRIVE, DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LITE IS ON AND THE DOORS ALL REMAIN UNLOCKED (NOT GREAT WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR IN PARKED TRAFFIC ) I LIVE IN LA. THE INTERIOR LITE STAYS ON AS WELL AND THE CHIME STAYS ON. ONCE PARKED AND ENGINE OFF, WE ALL EXIT CAR AND CLOSE DOORS AND THE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON... WONDERFUL HAVING YOUR CAR PARKED ON THE ROAD AT NITE LIKE THAT HERE IN LA.
2013 FORD EDGE SEL WITH 33000 MILES, DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES. IT KEEPS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON WHILE DRIVING, CONTINOUSLY WARNS DRIVER WITH DOOR OPEN MESSAGES ON DASHBOARD EVEN WHEN IT'S DOOR IS CLOSED. I BELIEVE THIS ISSUE ALSO DRAINED MY CAR BATTERY SINCE I HAD TO REPLACE IT BACK IN SEPT 2016. FORD PLEASE RECALL AND FIX THIS ISSUE ASAP.
TO WHOM IT MY CONCERN WE HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE. WE HAVE HAD IT TO FORD TO FIX DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON DASH WITCH WAS SAYING DRIVER DOOR WAS THE PROBLEM AT ABOUT 34000 MILES FORD FIXED IT BY CLEANING THE SENSOR WORKED FOR AWHILE UNDER WARRANTY. ABOUT A MONTH LATER SAME PROBLEM AND WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY COST ABOUT $380.00 TO FIX HAD TO CHANGE SENSOR NOW AT 42000 MILES DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS BACK ON SAY PASSENGER DOOR. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON WITCH AT NIGHT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NOW THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED HOW DO I KNOW IF DOOR IS NOT GOING TO COME OPEN. I FEEL FORD HAS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS ISSUE AND NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THERE RESPONSIBILITY AND ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS AND DON'T FEEL WE SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO KEEP PAYING OUT OF POCKET FOR FORDS PROBLEM THIS CAR IS A 4 DOOR WE'VE ALREADY PAID FOR ONE DOOR AND NOW HAVE TO FIX ANOTHER ONE. THANKS
DOOR AJAR STAYS ON FOR DRIVERS SIDE. MUST SHUT DOOR MANY TIMES BEFORE IT GOES OFF, IF IT GOES OFF AT ALL; LEAVING THE DOORS UNLOCKED AS WELL AS LIGHTS ON IN THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. VERY UNSAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT IN THOSE CONDITIONS. WAITING FOR DOOR TO OPEN AT ANY TIME.
I FIRST NOTICED A HISSING SOUND WHEN I WOULD PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL. IT THEN BECAME SOMETIMES DIFFICULT TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL BUT THEN ALSO LIKE IT DID NOT WORK AND WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. AT TIMES, WHEN I HAVE THE CAR STOPPED USING THE BRAKES IT FEELS AS THOUGH THEY ARE SLIPPING AND THE CAR WILL LUNGE. I SAW THERE WAS A BULLETIN ISSUED BY FORD TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON THIS ISSUE BUT WHEN I REACHED OUT THEY TOLD ME MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED TWO MONTHS AFTER THE CUTOFF. WHEN I ASKED WHAT WAS CHANGED TO EXCLUDE MY CAR THEY REFUSED TO GIVE ME AN ANSWER.
DOOR LATCH ON DRIVER SIDE DOOR BROKE
WHEN CLOSING THE DRIVER DOOR THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WITH THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IT STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING AND PARKED AND ALSO A NOISE INDICATOR EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND CLOSE THE DOOR. ALSO WHEN TRYING TO USE THE KEYPAD TO LOCK THE CAR FROM THE OUTSIDE SOMETIMES IT WON'T LOCK. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS INCONSISTENT, SOMETIMES IT WILL STAY ON, OTHER TIMES IT WILL TURN OFF. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. AFTER A $200 FEE TO JUST LOOK AT THE VEHICLE THEY SAID IT IS THE DOOR LATCH WHICH IS A COMMON DEFECT AND WILL COAST UPWARD OF $500 WITH LABOR AND PARTS TO FIX. AFTER DOING RESEARCH TO TRY AND SEE IF I COULD REPAIR IT MYSELF I FOUND I WAS NOT ALONE IN HAVING THIS ISSUE AND WAS ENCOURAGED TO FILE A COMPLAIN ON THIS SITE.
MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT STARTED COMING LAST WEEK AND WON'T GO OFF. I AN POSITIVE THE ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED. IT IS VERY DISRUPTIVE WHILE DRIVING, WHEN THE VEHICLE SLOWS AT SIGNAL LIGHTS, IN INTERSECTIONS OR IN TRAFFIC THE ALARM COMES ON. ALSO, I WAS IN A COMPLETELY DARK PARKING LOT WITH PEOPLE AND CARS MOVING AROUND AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULDN'T GO OFF. I COULD NOT SEE OUTSIDE BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR LIGHTS. THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT FUNCTION IN THIS STATE EITHER. SOMEONE COULD HAVE EASILY GOTTEN INTO THE VEHICLE WITH ME. HELP!
DOOR AGAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN DOORS IS LOCKED.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALARM WENT OFF LAST WEEK WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND WILL NOT STOP. THIS IS CAUSING ME TO GET A CONSTANT WARNING WHILE I'M DRIVING THAT MY DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR AND TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK. IT ALSO MAKES MY INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN MY CAR IS TURNED OFF (WHICH IS KILLING MY NEW BATTERY) AND MY DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE. NO AMOUNT OF SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT OR CLEANING OF THE DOOR LATCH CORRECTS THE PROBLEM. I AM HAVING TO DISCONNECT MY BATTERY IN ORDER TO NOT DRAIN MY NEW BATTERY DOWN FROM THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAYING ON.
"TAKATA RECALL" - DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON DASH. FRONT AND REAR DRIVERS SIDE
FORD EDGE 2013 PROBLEM WITH SENSOR OR OTHER CAUSING DRIVER DOOR ALARM TO ACTIVATE AFTER DOOR IS SHUT. DOME LIGHTS STAY ON; DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT BUT MESSAGE STATES THAT "DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR". MESSAGE AND ALARM SOMETIMES COMES ON WHEN DRIVING. SOMETIMES TAKES SEVERAL TRIES REPEATEDLY SHUTTING DOOR TO GET ALARM AND LIGHTS TO TURN OFF. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST WEEK. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. AS A RESULT, THE DOOR FAILED TO LOCK AND CAUSE THE OTHER DOORS TO LOCK AND UNLOCK WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE CHIMED AS IF THE DOOR WAS OPEN ALTHOUGH IT WAS LATCHED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT SIDE DOOR LATCH AND SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING INTO THE GARAGE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT SEEMED TO BE LOCKED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR SWITCH ALARMS ALMOST EVERY TIME CAR IS DRIVEN. RESULTS IN OVERHEAD LIGHTS STAYING ON WHICH CAUSES VISUAL IMPAIRMENT WHEN BACKING UP. ONCE GOING FORWARD ALARM AND LIGHTS GO OFF. MUST VISUALLY CHECK DOOR TO ENSURE DOOR IS CLOSED AND NOT AJAR. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS CURRENTLY BEING INVESTIGATED FOR SAFETY ISSUES.
DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR CONSTANTLY DISPLAYS THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT. THIS PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING WHILE DRIVING AND KEEPS THE LIGHTS ON WITHIN THE VEHICLE WHEN SHUT OFF. I WAS TOLD BY DEALER IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE EDGE AND IS EXPENSIVE FIX. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE INTERIOR LIGHTING TO REMAIN ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE DOORS COULD OPEN INDEPENDENTLY AND ALSO THAT THE BATTERY COULD BE DRAINED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCHES NEEDED TO BE RE-CALIBRATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE APPROACHING A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP. THE CONTACT HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKE PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAS HAD BRAKE ISSUES SINCE JANUARY 15, 2016. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTERS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.
THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR SENSOR WILL COME ON INDICATING THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS OPEN, WHEN IT IS IN FACT CLOSED TIGHT. IT WILL CAUSE MY LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON AWHILE AFTER DRIVING, AND ANYTIME I STOP THEN ACCELERATE, IT WILL DING TO NOTIFY ME THAT THE DOOR IS STILL OPEN. WHICH IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. ALSO, BECAUSE IT THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN, THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON LONGER WHICH HAS DRAINED MY BATTERY, TO THE POINT THAT I'VE HAD TO JUMP START MY CAR. THE SENSOR INDICATED THE DOOR IS OPEN DESPITE BEING STATIONARY OR MOVING. *TR
WHEN YOU ARE STOPPED AND 'SHIFT TO PARK' AND PUSH THE BUTTON TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, IT DINGS KEEPS TELLING ME TO 'SHIFT TO PARK'. YOU NEED TO CONTINUE TURNING OFF AND ON AND MOVING THE GEAR SHIFTER BETWEEN PARK AND DRIVE TO FINALLY GET IT TO TURN OFF. I SEE ONLINE THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH SOME AWD VEHICLE FROM FORD. *TR
DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF. INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND NONE OF THE VEHICLE LOCKS WILL LATCH BECAUSE VEHICLE BELIEVES A DOOR IS AJAR, WHEN IN FACT IT IS NOT. THE ISSUE BEGAN ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO (OCTOBER 10, 2016). I WAS ABLE TO OPEN AND SHUT DOOR TO TURN THE SENOR OFF THE FIRST FEW TIMES THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON AND THAT SOLVED THE PROBLEM...TEMPORARILY. AT THIS POINT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON, INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED AND TURNED OFF, BATTERY IS DRAINED DUE TO LIGHTS STAYING ON UNLESS I DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND DOORS NEVER LOCK - NOT WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, NOT WHEN IT IS PARKED.
ENGINE BECAME TOTALLY DISABLED AT 50 MPH ON A RURAL COUNTY HIGHWAY.STRUGGLED TO STEER VEHICLE TO SHOULDER OF ROAD BECAUSE OF LOST POWER.FORTUNATELY WE WERE ON A STRAIGHT SECTION OF ROAD.I CAN ONLY THINK THAT IN SO MANY OTHER DRIVING SITUATIONS THIS PROBLEM COULD HAVE PUT US IN A LIFE THREATENING POSITION.FORD REALLY NEEDS TO FIND THE PROBLEM AND FIX IT! *TR
MY 2013 FORD EDGE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS LOSES ALL ENGINE POWER. THE RPM'S DROP TO ABOUT 600 AND DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR HAS NO EFFECT ON THE RPM'S. THE 5 TIMES IT HAPPENED DURING THE MONTH OF OCTOBER 2016 I WAS TRAVELING AT SPEEDS RANGING FROM 40 TO 50 MPH. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY COAST TO THE NEAREST SHOULDER WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE POTENTIAL FOR A CATASTROPHIC INCIDENT IS OBVIOUS.
"DOOR AJAR" LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR CLOSED. THIS RESULTS IN LOCKS NOT WORKING, INTERIOR LIGHTS NO TURNING OFF ETC. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. ! YEAR AGO, FORD 'CLEANED' THE SENSOR AND THAT WORKED, - FOR A YEAR!
WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS CLOSED SECURELY THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND WARNING SOUND ACTIVATE ALMOST DAILY, MORE OFTEN ON COOLER MORMINGS. AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO CLOSE THE DOOR SECURELY THE PROBLEM PERSISTS AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ALSO HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS AND AT ALL SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING OR AS A RESULT OF UNUSUAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. IN ADDITION, WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, ALL OF THE DOORS UNLOCK WHEN THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ACTIVATES AND THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT IS ENABLED MAKING THE VEHICLE, IN MY OPION, UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND OCCUPY. THIS PROBLEM IS DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT AND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. HAD I KNOWN OF THIS PROBLEM EXISTED BEFORE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED ANY VEHICLE MADE BY FORD.I AM NOW AWARE THE PROBLEM IS WELL DOCUMENTED AND WIDELY KNOWN ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND THROUGH COMMENTS I HAVE READ ON VARIOUS CONSUMER WEBSITES. I DO NOT RECALL THE FIRST TIME THIS PROBLEM OCCURED, BUT THE LAST TIME WAS TODAY WHILE TAKING MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL. I AM REQUESTING A RECALL FOR THE ENTIRE DOOR ASSEMBLY THAT CONTROLS THE DOOR AJAR WARNING SYSTEM. *TR
DRIVER DOOR LOCK WOULD NOT LOCK. WARNING LIGHT, DOME LIGHT AND WARNING SINGLE STAYED ON. DOOR WOULD NOT LATCH, HAD TO HAVE LOCK REPLACED BY DEALER.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR AND INTERIOR LIGHTING ILLUMINATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE CLEANED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON CONTINUALLY. IT IS NOT AJAR. AN IRRITATING ALARM IS SOUNDED REPEATEDLY. RE-CLOSING THE DOOR DOES NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE ALARM CONTINUES TO SOUND WHETHER IN MOTION OR STOPPED.
THE DRIVERS DOOR SENSOR INTERMITTENTLY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND THEREFOR WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK THE DOORS WHEN THE CAR MOVES. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK MANUALLY WITH THE DOOR LOCK SWITCH AS THE SENSOR SEES THE DOOR AS BEING OPEN AND WILL AUTOMATICALLY AND IMMEDIATELY UN-LOCK THEM. MANUALLY LOCKING EACH DOOR WILL LOCK THE DOORS BUT THIS IS INCONVENIENT AND NOT A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTING REMAINED ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE ELECTRONIC PANEL FAILED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND THE LIFTGATE FAILED TO REMAIN CLOSED. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT AND REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOORS RANDOMLY FAILED TO REMAIN CLOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE SENSORS WERE CLEANED. TWO MONTHS LATER, THE FAILURES RECURRED.

BAD FUNCTION DOOR SENSOR, DASHBOARD SHOWS OPEN DRIVER DOOR, EVEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. IT HAPPENS ALL TIME
DOOR AJAR SENSOR - LEADING YOU TO BELIEVE THE DOOR IS AJAR. THE DOOR IS CLOSED BUT THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AS THOUGH THE DOOR IS AJAR. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS MAY OR MAY NOT TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING THIS IS DANGEROUS AT NIGHT. DOOR LOCK BUTTON WON'T ACTIVATE DOOR LOCKS SENSING A DOOR IS AJAR AGAIN VERY DANGEROUS.THIS SENSOR COMES ON AT WILL DRIVING NOT DRIVING NO RHYME OR REASON. PROLONGED LIGHTING MAY SHORTEN THE LIFE OF MY BATTERY OR LEAVE US STRANDED. FORD REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS DESIGN PROBLEM AND THE BURDEN OF REPAIR ON THEIR CUSTOMERS A RECALL IS IN ORDER. *TR
THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR ALARM ACTIVATES WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT OPEN. THIS CAUSES INTERIOR LIGHT TO REMAIN ON FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES BEFORE SHUTOFF. WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION, THEN COMES TO A STOP SAY, AT AN INTERSECTION, AN ALARM SOUNDS AGAIN AND REQUESTS THAT YOU SHIFT TO PARK. I HIT THE OK BUTTON ON THE STEERING WHEEL, BUT THE PROCESS REPEATS. I HAVE SOMETIMES BEEN ABLE TO STOP THE ALARMS BY WIGGLING THE WIRING HARNESS AT THE DOOR HINGE, BUT THIS MAY BE COINCIDENTAL. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING, AND WHEN STILL. THE AUTO LOCK WILL ALSO NOT ENGAGE DURING THE ALARM, AND EVEN WHEN MANUALLY ACTIVATING IT WON'T ENGAGE. I NEVER KNOW IF THIS IS A TRUE ALARM OR NOT. I ASSUME ALWAYS IT IS FALSE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS ASSUMPTION. REPEATED DOOR SLAMMING OR NORMAL CLOSING DOES NOT STOP THE ALARM. THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAY AND HAS BEEN FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. I SEE THE ISSUE ON CAR COMPLAINT SITES, THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE FALLS FROM A MOVING VEHICLE THINKING THE ALARM WAS FALSE WHEN IT WAS NOT. *TR
MY CAR, FORD EDGE 2013 HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER DOOR SENSOR WHICH SHOWS THAT THE DOOR IS NOT CLOSED CAUSING THE ALARM BELL TO STAY ON, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T TURN OFF, HAD TO HAVE A JUMP START. TOOK TO FORD DEALER AND WAS CHARGED FOR REPAIR. QUITE EXPENSIVE FOR ME TO PAY FOR WHAT FORD SHOULD BE PAYING FOR. I UNDERSTAND THAT ARE QUITE A LARGE NUMBER OF OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. ALSO SMELL EXHAUST FUMES WHEN SHUTTING SHUTTING OFF THE ENGINE AS I GET OUT OF THE CAR. COMING FROM ENGINE COMPARTMENT. UNDERSTAND THIS IS ALSO A PROBLEM FOR OTHER OWNERS. THESE FACTORS TOGETHER SHOULD BE REASON FOR THE NHTSA TO GET INVOLVED AND FORCE A RECALL TO REVIEW OUR GROUPS PROBLEMS. I PAID $229.00 TO CLEAN CONTACTS. NEW PARTS MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE. HELP US WITH THIS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE ENGINE WAS OPERATING, THE ODOR OF FUEL WAS PRESENT INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT FUEL LEAKED FROM A FUEL LINE UNDER THE HOOD. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000. UPDATED 01/10/17*LJ CONSUMER STATED SHE COULD SMELL GASOLINE COMING THROUGH HEAT VENTS WHEN SHE OUT OF THE CAR COULD SMELL GAS OUTSIDE FRONT END OF CAR.

I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR LESS THAN A YEAR AND 2 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON. IT COMES ON EVERYTIME I START THE CAR. A MESSAGE APPEARS SAYING TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND SHUT THE DOOR, I HAVE DONE THIS NUMEROUS TIMES TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE TIRED DRIVING FORWARD AND OPENING THE DOOR THEN SHUTTING IT WHILE STILL DRIVING FORWARD SLOWLY (SOMETIMES THIS WILL WORK TEMPORARILY) AND I HAVE ALSO TIRED DOING THE SAME IN REVERSE. I HAVE CALLED FORD AND BEEN TOLD TO TAKE IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE TEST IS GOING TO COST $120 PLUS TAX THEN THE PARTS AND LABOR SO I'M LOOKING AT A COST OF $500 OR MORE! FORD KNOWS THIS VEHICLE HAS THIS ISSUE, SO WHY DON'T THEY DO A RECALL. I LIVE IN A RURAL AREA WHERE WE HAVE BEAR AND MOUNTAIN LIONS AND I STAND OUTSIDE FOR 10 MINUTES OR MORE WAITING FOR THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO GO OFF, WHEN THEY STILL DON'T, I AROUND THE CAR AND OPEN AND CLOSE ALL THE DOORS AGAIN AND WAIT SOME MORE. (AS A WOMEN I TRULY AM NERVOUS WHILE I'M OUT THERE) NOT TO MENTION HAVING TO DRIVE AT NIGHT HOPING I WON'T GET A TICKET BECAUSE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. NO WONDER WHY CONSUMERS GET MAD AND DON'T WANT TO BUY AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS ANYMORE. COME ON FORD MAKE THE RECALL HAPPEN ALREADY!!!!! *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE "DOOR AJAR" INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOORS WERE CLOSED. WHEN THE CONTACT MANAGED TO GET THE "DOOR AJAR" INDICATOR TO GO OFF, IT CAME BACK ON WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED AND MADE A LOUD BANGING NOISE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GEAR DID NOT FEEL PROPERLY ENGAGED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVE, IT STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER FOR A WEEK, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REMEDIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 26,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR REAR HATCH WOULD NOT OPEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.
CLAD WHEEL RUBBED A CURB WHILE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 1000 MILES, LOCAL DEALER ADVISED THIS WASN'T WARRANTED, PAID $1000.+ TO HAVE A NEW RIM ORDERED AND INSTALLED WITHIN LESS THAN TWO MONTHS THIS SAME WHEEL (WITH THE OTHER OWNER DRIVING) RUBBED THE CURB AND ONCE AGAIN, RIM WAS RUINED. IT HAS SHARP JAGS JUST LIKE RAZORS, WE JUST REFUSE TO PAY ANOTHER $1000.+ FOR ANOTHER WORTHLESS RIM WRAPPED IN FOIL. THE OTHER COMPLAINT IS THE FUEL FILL DOOR COVER LATCH IS NO LONGER WORKING, FUEL DOOR STANDS AJAR AT ALL TIMES. PHOTOS OF BOTH ATTACHED. DATES WHEN HAPPENED ARE APPROXIMATE, 1ST WHEEL WAS WITHIN 1ST MONTH OR SO AFTER AUTO WAS PURCHASED. FUEL FILLER DOOR LATCH WAS WITHIN THE PAST MONTH,APPROXIMATELY SEPTEMBER 10, 2016., WE DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT AND A CO-WORKER JUST ASKED WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO IT, WE WERE NOT AWARE ANYTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. *NOTE, MILEAGE ON NEXT PAGE IS FOR FIRST RIM, PROBABLY SECOND RIM DAMAGE IN PHOTOS, WAS WITHIN ANOTHER MONTH FROM FIRST ONE DAMAGED. DEALER KEPT FIRST RIM AFTER THEY REPLACED IT, DID NOT RETURN TO US. *TR
WE RECENTLY HEARD THAT THE EDGE WAS BEING INVESTIGATED BECAUSE OF PROBLEMS WITH THE DOOR LATCH. WE WANT TO REPORT THAT WE HAVE HAD THAT PROBLEM. WE BOUGHT A 2013 EDGE IN DEC 2015. DURING THE FIRST WEEK WE STARTED GETTING THE WARNING MESSAGE THAT THE DRIVER'S DOOR WAS OPEN WHEN IT WAS ACTUALLY NOT. IT DID NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME WE DROVE THE CAR, BUT WHEN IT DID HAPPEN, THE MESSAGE KEPT REPEATING & THERE WAS NO WAY TO STOP IT. ON JULY 26, 2016, WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER & FOUND OUT THE PROBLEM WAS THE DOOR LATCH. IT COST $486.57 FOR REPLACEMENT (SEE INVOICE). WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THE INVESTIGATION, I TALKED TO THE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP & HE SAID THAT IT WAS 'POSSIBLE' THAT WE WOULD BE REIMBURSED BY FORD IF A RECALL WERE ISSUED. ANOTHER FORD WORKER IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID HE DOES NOT THINK THERE WILL BE A RECALL BECAUSE THERE HAVE NOT BEEN THAT MANY INCIDENTS. AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION INDICATES THAT THERE MUST HAVE BEEN PLENTY OF INCIDENTS. IF THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW, FORD SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE. WE ARE LIVING ON SOCIAL SECURITY AND $486.57 IS A SUBSTANTIAL PART OF OUR INCOME. WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR FORD'S MISTAKE. WE URGE YOU TO ISSUE A RECALL SO THAT WE CAN ATTEMPT TO OBTAIN REIMBURSEMENT. *TR
DOOR AJAR WARNING DESPITE DOOR BEING CLOSED. DOORS REMAIN UNLOCKED AND INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON.
SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE NO LONGER REGISTERED ONE OF THE DOORS AS BEING CLOSED. IT ALWAYS HAD THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ON THE SCREEN AND THE DOME LIGHTS STAYED ON AND DOORS WOULDN'T LOCK WHILE DRIVING AS IF A DOOR WAS OPEN. THIS MADE IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT NIGHT BECAUSE ALL THE LIGHTS WOULD BE ON IN THE CAR. ALSO, MY 4 YEAR OLD WAS ABLE TO REACH AND OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION SO I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT FIXED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE ONE OF MY CHILDREN WAS HURT. THE CAR ONLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES ON IT AND IS WELL CARED FOR BUT OUT OF WARRANTY SO THE REPAIR COST US 474$ AND I WAS OUT OF A VEHICLE FOR TWO DAYS. *TR
2013 FORD EDGE, THE BRAKES ARE DIFFICULT TO APPLY AND MAKE A HISSING NOISE. WITHOUT WARNING THE PEDAL WILL GO TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE WILL STALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS, AND ALWAYS WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO STOP. AT TIMES YOU LITERALLY HAVE TO USE BOTH FEET TO FULLY STOP THE VEHICLE. THE ISSUE STARTED AT THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE FREQUENT. I WILL NO LONGER BRING THIS VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY. WHY HAS THERE BEEN NO RECALL ISSUED ON THIS, OR ARE WE WAITING FOR PEOPLE TO DIE OR BE SERIOUSLY INJURED?
LEFT FRONT DOOR AJAR. AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STILL STAYS ON AND CABIN LIGHTS ON. NEED TO CLOSE VERY HARD COUPLE OF TIMES TO GET RID OF "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT AND CABIN LIGHTS TO OFF.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS UNABLE TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 72,000. UPDATED 12/20/16*LJ UPDATED 12/22/16.*JB
DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED
THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON. THE DOORS WON"T LOCK AND I DON'T KNOW IF THE DOOR IS REALLY CLOSED. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONERY OR IN MOTION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED PER A WARRANTY, BUT THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED A YEAR LATER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 42,000.
DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON. MAYBE ONE OUT OF TEN DOOR CLOSURES WILL TURN OFF LIGHT. AS A CONSEQUENCE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND DRAINS BATTERY. PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY BUT CONTINUES WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.
LOW OIL ENGINE PRESSURE AT ALL TIMES INDICATED, OLMOST SINCE PURCHASE 2 YAERS AGO.WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON A CITY OR HIGHWAY .
DOOR AJAR- FRONT DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT LATCH PROPERLY AND THEREFORE DOOR AJAR ALERT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHEN FIRST DRIVING WHICH CAUSES SAFETY HAZARD AT NIGHT AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING, ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE.
VEHICLE LOST TOTAL POWER WHILE GOING 70MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. NEEDED TO PULL OVER. A MESSAGE ICON "WRENCH" APPEARED ON THE INFORMATION PANEL. "WRENCH" REFERRED TO POWER TRAIN PROBLEM.DID A INTERNET SEARCH IN REFERENCE THE POWER TRAIN ISSUE AND FOUND OTHER SIMILAR SITUATIONS.
DOOR AJAR INDICATOR STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS CORRECTLY CLOSED. MY 2013 EDGE HAS LESS THAN 38000 MILES. BUT FORD WILL NOT FIX WITHOUT OWNER PAYING FOR IT. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST 2013 EDGE WITH THIS PROBLEM AND FORD SHOULD FIX WITHOUT OWNER'S COST
MY 2013 FORD EDGE HAS A MECHANICAL/ELECTRIC DOOR JAR SWITCH WHICH FAILS THUS YOU END UP WITH A 'DOOR AJAR' WARNING ON YOUR DASH. THUS YOU CAN'T LOCK YOUR DOORS AND THE LIGHT AND RADIO REMAIN ON AFTER TO EXIT THE VEHICLE.
PASSENGER FRONT DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYING ON CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON.
THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT COMES ON EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS PROPERLY CLOSED. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION. DOME LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF WHEN CAR IS STOPPED. THE PROBLEM BEGAN TWO WEEKS AFTER THE CAR CAME OFF OF WARRANTY AND HAS BEEN DOING THIS INTERMITTENTLY EVER SINCE.
WHILE DRIVING CAR HAS COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER.
CAR WILL STALL AND GO INTO LIMP MODE, YELLOW WRENCH APPEARS ON LEFT HAND DISPLAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE WITHIN THE LAST 3 MONTHS, ONCE IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A RUSH HOUR FREEWAY TRAVELLING AT 40MPH. I WAS LUCKY TO GET ACROSS TO THE SHOULDER BEFORE I LOST ALL MOMENTUM. NO RESPONSE WHEN PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR, ENGINE SHAKES BADLY. HAVE TO RESTART THE CAR IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TRAVEL. ALL RESEARCH POINTS TO FAULTY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. FORD SERVICE CENTER ADVISERS AGREE BUT REFUSE TO PERFORM REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY AS THERE ARE NO CODES. THE CODES GET WIPED AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR FAILURE. SYSTEM WOULD INDICATE DOOR WAS AJAR EVEN THOUGHT DOOR WAS CLOSED. LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ON, AND DOOR INDICATOR WOULD CHIME EVERYTIME THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. DOOR SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $585.
AFTER APPROXIMATELY 60,000 MILES THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK AND THE "DOOR AJAR' WARNING LIGHT AND ALARM WILL SOUND CONTINUALLY. THE VEHICLE CAN BE DRIVEN, BUT ONLY IN AN UNLOCKED CONDITION WHILE LISTENING TO THE WARNING CHIMES AND FLASHING DASH LIGHTS. THE CONDITION OFTEN LASTS A WEEK OR SO, GOES AWAY FOR SOME TIME AND THEN RETURNS.
CAR DOOR AJAR MESSAGE AD DOME LIGHT ON AT ALL TIMES, LOW ELECTRICAL POWER, CAUSED THE BATTERY TO GO BAD, LATCH ON DOOR PROBLEM, CAR WOULD NOT LOCK, CAR STATIONARY AND YOU COULD NOT LOCK THE DOOR TO START CAR
FUEL ODOR IN CABIN. EVERY TIME I PUT GASOLINE ON IT, WHEN TRYING TO TURN ON, IT FAILS AND I HAVE TO TRY SEVERAL TIMES. WHILE PARKED IT TURN OFF BY IT SELF AND A RED NOTIFICATION SAYING SOMETHING LIKE OIL PRESSURE APPEARS. I WENT TO DEALER AND THEY SAY IS OK. I ENTERED THE VIN IN YOUR SITE AND THERE ARE 2 RECALLS. DEALER NEVER CONTACT ME ABOUT THAT.
TWO PROBLEMS:1) DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON - DOOR HAS TO BE SLAMMED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE LIGHT GOES OUT, SOMETIMES LIGHT STAYS ON FOR ENTIRE 15 MILE DRIVE TO WORK. PROBLEM 2) SHIFT TO PARK LIGHT COMES ON- CAR IS IN PARK , MUST JAM SHIFTER FORWARD TO GET LIGHT TO GO OFF. SOMETIME MUST PUT CAR INTO DRIVE, MOVE FORWARD FEW FEET AND BACK TO PARK. BOTH PROBLEMS ARE INTERMITTENT BUT HAPPENS 8 OF 10 TIMES WE DRIVE THE VEHICLE.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE. THE DRIVERS DOOR CONTINUES TO TELL ME IT IS OPEN EVEN AFTER REPEATEDLY OPENING AND FIRMLY CLOSING THE DOOR. THE INSIDE LIGHTS STAY ON, WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE AT NIGHT, AND THE DOORS WON'T LOCK. I SPOKE TO FORD AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME 500 FOR THE PART.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS ALWAYS REPORTED AS AJAR. THE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED WHILE DRIVING, IF YOU MANUALLY LOCK THEM THEY ARE IMMEDIATELY UNLOCKED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL SOMETIMES STAY ON WHICH MAKES DRIVING AT NIGHT DIFFICULT. IF YOU LEAVE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AFTER PARKING, LIKE IN THE GARAGE, IT WILL RUN DOWN THE BATTERY.
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.
MY VEHICLE BEGUN HAVING PROBLEMS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AT AROUND 40,000 MILES WHENEVER I WOULD OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR. IT WOULD FLASH "DOOR AJAR" AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT WOULD STAY ON WHEN I STARTED TO DRIVE. ONCE I WOULD SLOW, THE DASH WOULD ALSO HAVE A "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING FLASHING. THE DOORS WOULD NO LONGER LOCK WHEN I WAS DRIVING, AND I WAS UNABLE TO SECURE THE VEHICLE WHEN IT WAS PARKED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ON. IT TOOK MY LOCAL FORD DEALER ALMOST 2 WEEKS TO FIT ME INTO THEIR SCHEDULE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, AND IT COST ME OVER $500 TO HAVE IT REPLACED. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED AS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THESE VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS A SAFETY HAZARD. IT WAS VERY DISTRACTING AND UNSAFE WHEN YOU CAN NO LONGER SECURE YOUR VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY SOMEONE WITH A CHILD.
DOOR LATCH DID NOT PROPERLY SIGNAL WHETHER OR NOT THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. DROVE AWAY ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WITH A DOOR THAT WAS NOT LATCHED PROPERLY BECAUSE THE LIGHT WAS ALWAYS GIVING A FALSE SIGNAL THAT THE DOOR WAS OPEN.
THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AFTER THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND THE ALARM SOUND COMES ON WARNING YOU OF THE DOOR PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT TWO TIMES A WEEK AND SOMETIMES TIMES YOU HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR ABOUT FIVE TIMES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN AND I HAVE TO STOP THE VEHICLE TO RECLOSE THE DOOR.
IN APRIL 2014 AT 20,000 MILES A SHIFT TO PARK NOTICE WAS BEEPING WHEN ENGINE WAS SHUT OFF AND VEHICLE PUT IN PARK. HAD TO KEEP FOOT ON BREAK AND JIGGLE SHIFTER TO GET SHIFT TO PART NOTICE TO STOP TO ENSURE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK AND WOULD NOT ROLL AWAY AND TO PREVENT BATTERY FROM DRAINING. WAS REPAIRED BY DEALER UNDER WARRANTY IN JUNE 2014. IN SEPTEMBER 2016 AT 47,000 MILES THE SHIFT TO PARK NOTICES ARE HAPPENING AGAIN. DEALER SAYS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND WANTS TO CHARGE FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR. OBVIOUSLY THE REPAIR PEFORMED UNDER WARRANTY DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE AND THIS CAR IS DEFECTIVE. I HAVE SAFETY CONCERNS THAT THE SHIFT TO PARK ISSUE COULD RESULT IN CAR ROLLING AWAY AFTER DRIVER BELIEVES THEY HAVE PARKED CAR.
IN APRIL 2014 AT 20,000 MILES DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINED ON WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE. WAS REPAIRED BY DEALER UNDER WARRANTY IN APRIL 2014. IN SEPTEMBER 2016 AT 47,000 MILES THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS BACK ON AGAIN. DEALER SAYS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND WANTS TO CHARGE FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR. OBVIOUSLY THE ORIGINAL REPAIR PERFORMED UNDER WARRANTY DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE AND THIS CAR IS DEFECTIVE. I HAVE SAFETY CONCERNS WHETHER DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED WHILE DRIVING.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND ALARM BELLS REMAIN AFTER THE DOOR IS SHUT, EVEN AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO SHUT THE DOOR. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHICH AFFECTS ABILITY TO SEE AT NIGHT. THE WARNING LIGHTS AND ALARMS ARE DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. THE DOOR STAYS SHUT BUT THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW IF IT IS SECURE. THE ISSUE EXISTS AFTER ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR IT BY A MECHANIC.
PASSENGER DOOR AJAR ICON IS LIT ON THE BOARD AFTER I CLOSE DOOR AND DOORS NEVER LOCK, DRIVING WITH DOOR UNLOCKED. LIGHTS STAY ON ALL THE TIME,DRAINING BATTERY, SO I PULLED BULBS FROM CEILING TO SAVE BATTERY. WHEN I STOP OR PARK THE CAR, LOCKING THE CAR WITH KEY REMOTE SOUND TWICE AND LIGHTS NEVER SHUTS. I BELIEVE IS HAZARDOUS TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH DOOR UNLOCK.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON
I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS DOOR LATCH SENSOR ISSUE FOR THE DURATION OF MY OWNERSHIP ON MY FORD EDGE. I DON'T SEE HOW IT IS POSSIBLE THAT OUR VEHICLES MEET NHTSA STANDARD FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD (FMVSS) NO. 206, DOOR LOCKS AND DOOR RETENTION COMPONENTS. THE TESTING FOR THAT STANDARD WOULD HAVE BEEN DONE IN A LABORATORY, AND IT IS APPARENT THAT CONTAMINANTS OUT IN THE FIELD ARE MAKING THEIR WAY INTO THE DOOR LOCK ASSEMBLY AND COMPROMISING THE SENSOR - IT IS NOT A STRETCH TO CONSIDER THE LATCH ITSELF MAY BE DETERIORATING AS WELL. THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW IF THE DOOR IS FULLY SHUT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COMING ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHTTIME FROM THE UNPREDICTABLE SENSOR. I JUST REPLACED A BATTERY 10/3/16, FAILED FROM THE SENSOR DRAINING IT REPEATEDLY, BOUGHT THE LARGEST CAPACITY OEM REPLACEMENT I COULD GET FOR IT FROM FROM THE DEALER. WHILE PARKED, EVEN FOR HOURS AND DAYS ON END UNTOUCHED, THE CAR WILL PERIODICALLY SENSE THE DOOR IS OPENED AND CLOSED (THOUGH IT HASN'T BEEN), AND THE PARKING/CONVENIENCE LIGHTING WILL COME ON AND GO BACK OFF AGAIN.
FOR THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS MY CAR IS INDICATING THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. IT NOTIFIES ME CONSTANTLY USING LIGHTS AND DINGING WHICH IS VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. EVERY TIME YOU TURN ON THE CAR OR STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR FROM A STOP OR SLOW SPEED IT STARTS DINGING. WHEN BACKING UP IT IS DINGING MAKING IT HARD TO DISTINGUISH WHETHER THERE IS AN OBJECT IN THE PATH. IT ALSO KEEPS THE DOME LIGHT FROM GOING OFF WHICH CAUSED THE BATTERY TO FAIL WHICH COST $162 TO REPLACE. ADDITIONALLY, THE FIRST TIME I PAID $120 TO HAVE IT FIXED AT THE DEALER. 'WHEN THE PROBLEM RECURRED I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WHICH SHOULD BE RECALLED BY FORD. A SMALL INEXPENSIVE PLASTIC PIECE WHICH AN EXPERIENCED MECHANIC SHOULD BE ABLE TO REPLACE IN 15 MINUTES. "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN" AND "HOW FAST WERE YOU GOING" DOES NOT FIT INTO A SINGLE DATE OR SPEED; THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND OCCURS AT ALL SPEEDS.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR. IT STAYS ON AT ALL TIMES. IT KILLS MY CAR BATTERY AND NOW IM ON MY 2ND NEW BATTERY. I CANT BACK UP OR DRIVE SAFE AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON. I CANT LOCK MY DOORS WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED BECAUSE IT SAYS DOOR AJAR.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON, FAULTY SENSOR DOES NOT READ WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. LIGHTS STAY ON AND WARNING PROMPT APPEARS ON DASH WHILE DRIVING WITH ALARM. VEHICLE MILEAGE 51,000.
THIS IS FOR A 2013 FORD EDGE SEL AWD MODEL, RECENTLY THE DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR INDICATOR KEEPS COMING ON , AND INTERIOR LIGHTS ON WITH IT, SLAMMING THE DOOR A FEW TIMES , SOMETIMES CORRECTS IT. BUT IT IS AN ONGOING ISSUE, AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING MORE AND MORE FREQUENT, VERY ANNOYING, AND IF IT DOES IT UPON LEAVING THE VEHICLE PARKED , INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND RUN DOWN THE BATTERY. WHILE DRIVING IT SOMETIMES COMES ON, AND UNLOCKS THE DOORS, BECAUSE IT THINKS THIS DOOR IS AJAR, WHEN IN FACT THE DOOR IS CLOSED TIGHT. FORD SHOULD RECALL AND FIX THIS ISSUE, APPARENTLY IT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT MODELS, AND THEY WANT MORE THAN $400 TO REPAIR THEIR FAULTY SWITCH ISSUE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE AT SLOW SPEEDS, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. ALSO, WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND THROTTLE SYSTEM WERE FAULTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS OBVIOUSLY CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON UNTIL CAR ACCELERATES BEYOND 5 MPH (?) AND DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON FOR LENGTH OF TRIP. 'SHIFT TO PARK' YELLOW WARNING APPEARS WHILST DRIVING BUT STOPPED AT A LIGHT. WHEN CLOSING AND LOCKING DOOR AFTER PARKING, CAR HONKS TWICE SIGNIFYING UNLOCKED DOOR. LIGHT STAYS ON, POSSIBLY DRAINING BATTERY.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS CONTINUALLY ON, RARELY DOES THE DOOR SHUT AND THE LIGHT GOES OFF. THIS LEAVES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DOOR IS NOT SECURE. THE CAR DOES THIS BOTH WHEN STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AND ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON FOR THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR ALTHOUGH THE DOOR IS LATCHED PROPERLY. THIS HAPPENED AND WAS "FIXED" WITH A NEW SENSOR 1 YR AGO. NOW IT HAS STARTED AGAIN. WHILE THE LIGHT IS ON THE DOORS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHILE DRIVING (ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WITH 2 KIDS), THE LIGHTS INSIDE REMAIN ON AFTER THE CAR IS SHUT OFF (ALTHOUGH I CANNOT PROVE IT IS RELATED TO THIS I HAVE ALREADY CHANGED THE BATTERY ONCE ON THIS CAR), IF THE CAR IS LOCKED WHILE OFF AT TIMES THE SENSOR TRIPS ITSELF AND THEN THE ALARM STARTS GOING OFF ON ITS OWN RANDOMLY, THEREFOR NOW I HAVE TO LEAVE THE CAR UNLOCKED SO THAT THE ALARM DOES NOT BOTHER MY NEIGHBORS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON DASH CONTINUES TO STAY LIT AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS CREATES AN ISSUE AS THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT ENGAGE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING.
THE WARNING "DOOR AJAR" ON DRIVER'S DOOR KEEPS DINGING EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS LATCHED. SOMETIMES SLAMMING THE DOOR ONCE (OR 3-8 TIMES) WILL GET THE WARNING OFF THE DISPLAY PANEL. MANY TIMES I HAVE TO LISTEN TO THE WARNING THE WHOLE TIME I'M DRIVING AS IT INSISTS THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. VERY ANNOYING TO THE POINT OF BEING A DRIVING DISTRACTION!
THE "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" LIGHT DOES NOT TURN OFF WHEN YOU CLOSE THE DOOR. IT WILL REMAIN ON THE ENTIRE TIME THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN. THE LIGHTS WILL STAY ON WHEN YOU ARE NOT IN THE VEHICLE AND WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS FROM THE KEYPAD BECAUSE THE VEHICLE THINKS THE DOOR IS STILL OPEN. THE HORN BEEPS TWICE WHEN YOU TRY TO LOCK THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEY FOB INDICATING THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN. THE RADIO WILL ALSO REMAIN ON AFTER YOU EXIT THE VEHICLE AND LOCK THE DOORS.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALARM INDICATOR IS ON ALL THE TIME EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE AUTO LOCKING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK, INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON. IN MOTION OR STATIONARY, UNDER ALL CONDITIONS.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR ALARM CONTINUES TO GO OFF, MY DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, DOME LIGHT STAYS ON WHICH IS DISTRACTING AND UNSAFE, WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO STOP, ALARM GOES OFF TO "PUT CAR IN PARK", WHICH IS DISTRACTING. EXTERIOR LIGHTS AND INSIDE INSTRUMENT PANEL STAYS LIT UP AFTER CAR TURNED OFF, HAS DRAINED MY BATTERY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 1.5 YEARS.
DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON, EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. THIS PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING AND THEY CAN ONLY BE LOCKED MANUALLY, THE DOME LIGHTS WILL NEVER GO OFF AND EVENTUALLY THE BATTERY DIES, AND THE AC WILL ONLY BLOW COLD ON 1 SETTING. IT WILL NOT BLOW HEAT. THE KEYPAD WILL NOT LET THE VEHICLE LOCK WHEN THE WARNING IS ON. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING OR STATIONARY, AND INTERMITTENTLY. SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T HAPPEN, SOMETIMES I HAVE TO SHUT THE DOOR 20 TIMES TO GET IT TO LOCK PROPERLY WITH THE LIGHTS OFF.
I HAVE ALSO RECEIVED THE "DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE AND WARNING BELL THAT WOULD SOUND WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. ADDITIONALLY, THE KEYPAD ENTRY WOULD NOT WORK AND THE HANDS FREE ENTRY DID NOT WORK. THE DEALER REPLACED THE DOOR LATCH AT A COST OF ABOUT $700.
THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR CLOSES BUT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON AND IS ANNOYING. MY WIFE TOOK IT IN AND THEY WANTED 500.00 TO FIX IT ON A 3YR. OLD CAR THEY CAN'T MAKE A LATCH TO LAST LONGER THAN 3 YRS.?
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR OPENED WITHOUT BEING PROMPTED AS THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE 'SHIFT TO PARK' WARNING MESSAGE ALSO DISPLAYED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT LOCK DUE TO FAILURE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE 'SHIFT TO PARK' WARNING MESSAGE ILLUMINATED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING OPERATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
DOOR AJAR LATCH NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. DOOR IS CLOSED BUT LIGHT STILL ON.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE POWER SHUT DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS ELECTRICAL FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE ISSUE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,500.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT FOR DRIVERS DOOR WILL INTERMITTENTLY STAY ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. AS A RESULT THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS GO ON OBSTRUCTING DRIVERS VISION AT NIGHT. ADDITIONALLY IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHEN THIS CONDITION EXISTS. WHEN DRIVING AN IRRITATING MESSAGE COMES ON SAYING TO SHIFT TO PARK AND CLOSE DOOR WHICH ARE ALREADY CLOSED. THIS APPEARS TO BE A BAD DESIGN FLAW WHICH CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIPS CHARGE SOMEWHERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF $450.00 TO REPLACE ASSEMBLY WHICH IN SOME CASES STILL DOES NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS IN A RECALL.
THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT AND BELL STAYS ON AFTER THE DOOR IS SHUT. THIS HAPPENED ON MY EDGE IN JANUARY 2015. I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALER, AND FIRST THEY ADJUSTED THE DOOR LATCH. THAT ONLY LASTED A COUPLE OF MONTHS. WHEN I TOOK IT BACK, THE DEALER SAID THAT FORD TOLD THEM THE LATCH WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE BILL TO REPLACE THE LATCH WAS $132.08, WHICH I PAID. THAT FIXED MY PROBLEM. I SAW ON THE NEWS TODAY THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM YOU ARE INVESTIGATING, AND I WANTED YOU TO KNOW MY SITUATION.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINED LIT ON DASHBOARD AS WELL AS INTERIOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. HAPPENED SOMETIMES ONCE DOOR WAS SHUT AND VEHICLE STILL IN PARK CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO TRY MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET SENSOR TO REGISTER PROPERLY AND WOULD HAPPEN SOMETIMES SHORTLY AFTER TAKING OFF AND GETTING UP TO SPEED ON CITY STREETS, OR SHORTLY AFTER I WOULD GET UP TO 10 MPH CAUSING THE AUTO LOCK FEATURE TO ACTIVATE AND DOOR AJAR LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE. ALSO WAS ABLE TO GET SENSOR TO REGISTER DOOR WOULD BE SHUT AND I WOULD CLIMB OUT THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND BACK IN LATER, NOT OPENING DRIVER DOOR AFTERWARDS AND WOULD GET DOOR AJAR LIGHT WHEN VEHICLE WAS STARTED. TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS AND WAS TOLD IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE CAUSED BY FAULTY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. DEALER REPLACED CLUSTER AND STILL HAD ISSUE WITH DOOR AJAR REMAINING LIT SHORTLY AFTER GETTING BACK HOME.
DOOR LATCH ON DRIVERS DOOR DOES NOT TURN CAR COMPUTER OFF WHEN IT IS OPENED. COMPUTER AND RADIO WILL REMAIN ON UNLESS PASSENGER DOOR IS OPENED AND CLOSED. CAUSING A DRAIN ON THE BATTERY CAUSING IT TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS NO ALARM WARNING WHEN DRIVERS DOORS IS OPENED. THE SENOR IS NOT WORKING AT ALL. WHILE DRIVING ON ANY ROAD THE SENSOR WILL NOT NOTIFY YOU THAT YOUR DRIVERS DOOR IS OPENED OR NOT CLOSED CORRECTLY. THE DOOR COULD OPEN WHILE DRIVING I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ADVISED BY THE SERVICE ADVISER THAT IT IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE BUT I SHOULD WAIT FOR THE RECALL TO GET IT FIXED. THEY HAVE HAD A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE DOOR LATCH AND SENSORS NOTICED THE ISSUE AND HAD IT IN THE SHOP 7/14/2016 FOR THIS ISSUE AFTER NOTICING THE DOOR WAS NOT CLOSED WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT TO GET ON FREEWAY AND NO ALERTS OR WARNING SIGNS NO LIGHTS NOTHING THIS IS A ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN AND A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE TO MY FAMILY
THE CAR IS AT 50,000 AND THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR SIGNALS THE DOOR IS OPEN AND IT IS NOT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE DOORS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AS THEY SHOULD. ALSO, IT CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON AND OTHER SENSORS TO COME ON WHEN THE CAR IS AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. DUE TO THIS BEING AN ISSUE READ ABOUT WIDELY FORD SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THIS.
DOOR IS CLOSED AND YET IT SHOWING THAT DOORS ARE OPEN UNABLE TO LOCK CAR ALARM BEEPING ALL TRUE THE DRIVE
DRIVER DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY BECAME FAULTY AT 53000 MILES. CAR DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK AUTOMATICALLY AS DESIGNED WHEN THE VEHICLE REACHED 15 TO 20 MPH.. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE DRIVEN WITH DOORS UNLOCKED AT ALL TIMES. STOPPING AT AN INTERSECTION WITH DOORS UNLOCKED CREATED A SAFETY SITUATION. AUDIO ALARMS KEPT GOING OFF AS THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THE AUDIO ALARMS INDICATED THE DRIVER DOOR WAS AJAR WHICH WAS NOT TRUE. INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAYED FALSE VISUAL ALARMS WHILE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN RESULTING IN DRIVER DISTRACTION. DRIVER WAS INSTRUCTED TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. ENGAGING THE BRAKE PEDAL AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN RESULTED IN THE VEHICLE AUDIO ALARMS GOING OFF ONCE THE BRAKE WAS RELEASED. AUDIO ALARMS WERE ANNOYING, DISTRACTING AND FRUSTRATING TO DRIVER. VEHICLE LATCH WAS REPLACED BY PRIVATE MECHANIC, COMPUTER WAS REPROGRAMMED FOR A TOTAL COST OF $454 OUT OF OWNER'S POCKET. OWNER WAS INFORMED BY MECHANIC THAT FORD HAD ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN SO FORD WAS AWARE THE ISSUE WAS COMMON.
THE DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON CAUSING THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON AND INABILITY TO LOCK THE CAR DOORS WHILE DRIVING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTING RANDOMLY ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
THE DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AND THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT FAILED TO RESPOND. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DIFFICULT TO APPLY AND MADE A LOT OF NOISE. WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPPED ,THE ENGINE TURNED OFF AND THE "ENGINE LOST POWER" WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,520.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THERE WAS A HISSING SOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS SLOW TO DECELERATE AND THE ENGINE SHOOK AND NEARLY STALLED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,057.
THE DRIVERS DOOR (ADJAR) SIGNAL KEEPS INDICATING THE DOOR IS OPEN EVEN IF THE DOOR IS FIRMLY CLOSED. THIS CAUSE THE CABIN LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON AND THE ALARM GOING OF EVERY SO MANY SECONDS. IT DISTRACTS ME CONSTANTLY.
MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WHEN I SHUT IT, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON ALONG WITH THE DOME LIGHTS. IT ONLY TOOK A FEW TIMES RE SHUTTING THE DOOR TO MAKE THIS GO AWAY. HOWEVER, JUST RECENTLY IT HAS BEEN STAYING ON LONGER AND HARDER TO GET TO GO OFF. IT HAS ALSO BEEN COMING ON WHEN DRIVING AND I HAVE TO PULLOVER TO TRY TO GET THIS TO TURN OFF. I CANNOT LOCK THE DOORS WHEN THIS HAPPENS CAUSING A VERY UNSAFE TRAVEL ALONG WITH THE LIGHTS STAYING ON. IF I HAD KIDS IN MY VEHICLE I WOULD FEEL THEY COULD OPEN THE DOORS DUE TO THIS FAILURE AND FALL OUT. WHEN DRIVING AND THIS HAPPENS THE LIGHT COMES ON AND CAUSES A GLARE AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT! EVEN AFTER FORD DOES THEIR "CLEANING" TO THE DOOR IT STILL HAPPENS AFTER A COUPLE MONTHS. THE DOOR LATCH AND COMPONENTS HAVE TO BE REPLACED COMPLETELY TO HAVE THIS FIXED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND PREVENTED THE DOORS FROM LOCKING. THE DOME LIGHT ABOVE THE PASSENGER REMAINED ILLUMINATED, WHICH INDICATED THAT THE DOORS WERE OPEN. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED AND DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR AJAR SWITCH ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.
WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, THE VEHICLE WENT INTO A LIMP-TYPE MODE. THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING BUT I COULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE PROBLEM WAS A FAULTY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY WHICH I HAVE COME TO FIND OUT IS A VERY WIDESPREAD PROBLEM IN FORD VEHICLES AND THAT FORD IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT HAS REFUSED TO ISSUE A RECALL. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE AND FORD IS PUTTING ITS CUSTOMERS AT RISK FOR ACCIDENTS.
MY DRIVER "DOOR AJAR" SENSOR WILL NOT GO OFF, CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON FOR EXTENDED PERIODS, BEEPING WHEN COMING TO A STOP, INABILITY TO LOCK THE DOORS INSIDE WHEN DRIVING AND IGNITION DINGING CONSTANTLY WHEN KEYS ARE IN. THIS OCCURS BOTH WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AS WELL AS MOVING AND IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW HARD OR LIGHT THE DOOR IS SHUT. IN LOOKING ONLINE, IT APPEARS THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM FOR PEOPLE, HOWEVER HAS YET TO BE RECALLED.
ON 9/19/2016, REPORTED PROBLEM OF UNABLE TO STOP WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. FIRST TIME HAPPENED WHEN EXITING PARKING LOT AND RAN STOP SIGN. SECOND TIME HAPPENED AS APPROACHED STOPLIGHT. LATER ON WIFE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS STOPPING FROM 35MPH AT STOP SIGN AND OTHER STOPLIGHTS. PROBLEM WAS LEAKING BRAKE BOOSTER COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY RECALL #13N02. THIS RECALL WAS NOT PREVIOUSLY NOTED ON FORD.COM, BUT IT SHOWED UP TODAY, 9/20/2016.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND WON'T REGISTER WHEN THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS SHUT. LIGHTS WILL NOT DIM WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED, LOCKS WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY EITHER. BATTERY IS BEING DRAINED BECAUSE OF THE FAULTY SENSOR. FORD WILL NOT COVER REPAIRS, EVEN THOUGH MY VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY.

THREE OCCURRENCES: DRIVING 30 MPH, ALL FORWARD MOVEMENT STOPPED. ENGINE WRENCH CAME ON, NO POWER, NO RPM, NO RESPONSE. HAD TO CROSS 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC (COASTING) TO PREVENT US BEING T-BONED IN THE INTERSECTION. NEXT : DRIVING 70 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. SAME THING HAPPENED, ALL POWER STOPPED, NEARLY RUN OVER BY AN 18 WHEELER. HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE. THIRD : THE VERY NEXT DAY, SAME THING HAPPENED ON A COUNTRY ROAD. NO TRAFFIC. NO NEAR MISS THIS TIME. HAD IT FIXED AT FORD THE FOLLOWING DAY. COST NEARLY $250. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT FORD HAS REPLACED 1.6 MILLION ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODIES. THIS NEEDS RECALLED. I'M FIGHTING FORD FOR A REFUND THAT I PAID FOR. I HAD TO HAVE MY FAMILY SAFE. PLEASE HIT FORD HARD. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I THINK THEY'VE HAD A RECALL ON FUSION / ESCAPE. WHY NOT EDGE. I'D LIKE TO KNOW HOW MANY EDGE VEHICLES HAVE HAD ETB REPLACED.

THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING OR WHEN PARKED. IF I AM DRIVING THEN THE DOME LIGHT REMAINS ON UNTIL I CAN GET THE SENSOR TO TURN OFF.
"DOOR AJAR" LIGHT KEPT COMING ON, STARTED EARLY 2015 WHILE IN WARRANTY. IT WAS REPAIRED BUT IS NOW DOING IT AGAIN AS OF AUG., 2016 AND OUT OF WARRANTY. ALSO, DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF SOMETIMES.
APPROACHED STOP SIGN, FROM PARKING LOT AT APPROX 8-10 MPH. APPLIED BRAKES, BUT THEY WENT SOFT AND ENTERED TWO LANE HIGHWAY APPROX. 2 FEET. DUMP TRUCK SWERVED TO MISS ME. CAUTIOUSLY DROVE HOME BUT AT FIRST STOPLIGHT I ENCOUNTERED, SAME THING HAPPENED, NEARLY RUNNING INTO CAR IN FRONT OF ME. WIFE LEFT THAT EVENING TO DELIVER MEAL TO MY ELDERLY MOTHER. SHE SAID THAT SAME THING HAPPENED TO HER AT ONE STOP SIGN AND TWO STOPLIGHTS. (CAR WAS IN MOTION DURING ALL INCIDENTS. MINE HAPPENED WHILE LEAVING A PARKING LOT AND ENTERING A TWO-LANE HIGHWAY. HERS HAPPENED ON TWO LANE ROAD NEAR HOME AND FOUR-LANE INTERSECTION ACROSS TOWN. THIS IS REALLY A SCARY SCENARIO. MADE APPOINTMENT TO TAKE CAR TO DEALER ON MONDAY SEPT. 19. 2016.
WHEN CLOSING THE DOOR THE DOOR AJAR MESSAGE COMES UP ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF CAUSING PROBLEMS WITH NIGHT DRIVING. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. WHEN TURNING VEHICLE OFF THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND IN TURN PUTS A DRAIN ON THE BATTERY. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS AS IT HAS BECOME AN UNSAFE PROBLEM FOR NIGHT DRIVING. THIS STARTED FEB. 2016 AND HAS BEEN A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM SINCE THEN. SPEED MAKES NO DIFFERENCE FOR THIS PROBLEM.
LEFT DOOR SENSOR/LATCH IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY AFTER 65,000 MILES. AFFECTS DOOR LOCKS WHILE DRIVING AND PARKED. THE DOOR LOCKS GO UP AND DOWN INTERMITTENTLY AND UNEXPECTANTLY. AFFECTS OVERHEAD LIGHTING AND THE REMOTE START. DANGEROUS TO HAVE THE DOORS NOT LOCKED ESPECIALLY IF YOUNG KIDS ARE IN BACK SEAT.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH IS FAULTY. CLAIMS THE DOOR IS OPEN, EVEN WHEN IT'S NOT. UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS, AND NOW JUST GOT A DEAD BATTERY BECAUSE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON.
WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON 9/8/16 ON A MAIL THOROUGHFARE, I HAD TO HIT THE BRAKES HARD BECAUSE A VEHICLE PULLED OUT IT FRONT OF ME. SINCE THAT TIME THE BRAKE PEDAL HAS BEEN INCONSISTENT (FIRM/SOFT) AND WHEN IT GOES SOFT IT REQUIRES MORE STOPPING DISTANCE. IN ADDITION WHEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN AND PRESSING DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THERE IS A SQUEALING SOUND COMING FROM UNDER THE DASH/FIREWALL AREA. AFTER TAKING VEHICLE TO LOCAL MECHANIC IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE BRAKE BOOSTER/VACUUM PUMP ATTACHED TO THE MASTER CYLINDER THAT HAS FAILED.
THE REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME AND THE DOOR IS NOT OPEN. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AT LEAST 5 MINUTES AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF, THEREFORE RUNNING DOWN THE BATTERY. WE JUST HAD TO PUT IN A NEW BATTERY. THE DOORS WON'T AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE IT THINKS THE REAR DOOR IS OPEN. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU SHUT THE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON. VERY FRUSTRATING!! SO MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM, IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!!!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR RANDOMLY FLASHED AND ALL FOUR DOORS FAILED TO LOCK APPROPRIATELY WHEN NECESSARY. IN ADDITION, UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE, THE DOME LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND THE CONTACT HAD TO CLOSE THE DOORS SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THE LIGHT TO DIM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.
DOOR LATCH DOES NOT FULLY SHUT DRIVERS SIDE. LIGHTS AND DOOR AJAR REMAIN ON. EVEN IF OFF DURING DRIVING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT MAY COME ON SUDDENLY AFTER TURNING CORNERS. ONLINE COMMENTS SUGGEST LATCH SENSOR ARM CONTINUES TO TOUCH DOOR LATCH WHEN CLOSED OR DOOR LATCH DOES NOT FULLY ENGAGE.
DOOR LOCKS DO NOT WORK, CAN POP OPEN WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION.
THE DRIVER'S DOOR WARNING DRIVERS DOOR IS AJAR WILL NOT GO OFF. EVEN WHEN CAR IS OFF, LIGHTS REMAIN ON INSIDE THE CAR. WHILE DRIVING, LIGHT AND WARNING CONTINUALLY STAY ON, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK BECAUSE SENSOR FOR DOOR REMAINS ON. WHEN I COME TO A STOP WHILE CAR IS RUNNING, WARNING TO SHIFT CAR TO PARK WILL COME ON..THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM WITH LITTLE CHILDREN IN CAR.. DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED..
ABOUT A YEAR AGO HAD ISSUE WITH CAR BATTERY AND CAR NOT STARTING. TOLD DEALERSHIP OF ISSUE WITH DOME LIGHT COMING ON AND THE DOOR AJAR ALARM NOISE BUT NOT THE AJAR LIGHT. THEY SAID THIS SOMETIMES HAPPENS WITH BAD BATTERY. NOW THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON, THE INTERIOR LIGHT COMES ON, THE DOOR AJAR ALARM SOUNDS, MY DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, AND AN ALARM ON MY DASH TELLS ME TO STOP AND PUT MY CAR INTO PARK. THIS STARTED OVER A YEAR AGO WITH THE BATTERY AND NOW A YEAR LATER WE HAVE HAD CONSTANT ISSUES WITH THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT THAT IS NOW PROGRESSING. LIGHT AND ALARMS OUT OF NOWHERE, DOORS NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK, AND THE PROBABILITY OF CAR BATTERIES GOING DEAD BECAUSE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T STAY OFF IS A HAZARD NOT TO MENTION TRYING TO SEE AT NIGHT WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTS UNABLE TO GO OFF. SOMETHING NEEDS DONE. ALL OF THIS CAN HAPPEN WHEN IN MOTION OR AT A STAND STILL. IT STARTED OFF BEING JUST WHEN YOU FIRST GOT IN TO START THE CAR, NOW IT CAN BE WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING.
THERE IS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING, THE ENGINE IDLES ROUGHLY, AND THE ACCELERATOR STOPS WORKING - THIS IS ALL WHILE IN THE PROCESS OF DRIVING THE CAR. THERE WERE COMPLAINTS FILED BACK IN 2013 AND A LAWSUIT RELATED TO OTHER FORD VEHICLES REGARDING THIS ISSUE (DEFECTIVE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL). THIS MODEL AND YEAR, HOWEVER, IS NOT PART OF THE GROUP FORD AGREED TO FIX AND THERE WAS NEVER A FORMAL RECALL. THIS PUTS DRIVERS IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION...LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING SENSOR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000. UPDATED 11/01/16*LJ *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR FOR THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR ILLUMINATED AND A CHIME SOUNDED EVEN THOUGH ALL THE DOORS WERE CLOSED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT A SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THE TURBO CHARGER FAILED, AND NO PART IS AVAILABLE FOR 3 MONTHS. THE CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED MANY TIMES PRIOR TO 60,000 MILES BUT NOW SUDDENLY I AM BEING TOLD THE PART JUST FAILED. MY COMPLAINT IS A MAJOR ENGINE PART FAILING AT UNDER 60,000 MILES AND NO PART AVAILABLE FOR 3 MONTHS.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE KEEPS SAYING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS AJAR, CHIMES KEEP GOING OFF, THE DOME LIGHT KEEPS GOING OFF & ON & I AM UNABLE TO LOCK MY DOORS. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN ESPECIALLY WITH MY 4 YEAR OLD IN THE CAR WITH ME. AND NOW THEY RECALL 1.5 MILLION VEHICLES BECAUSE THE DOORS CAN FLY OPEN!?!?! WHERE IS THE RECALL ON MY VEHICLE???????? ARE YOU ALL WAITING ON FATALITIES?!?!?! COME ON FORD!!
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR FAILS TO DETECT THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND LATCHED. THIS CAUSES THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS TO UNLOCK THE DOORS EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY ISSUE IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WAS CONTINUING TO TURN ON, EVEN WHILE DRIVING, CREATING AN UNSAFE DRIVING SITUATION AS ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL YOU PULL OVER, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, OPEN THE DOOR, PUSH IN THE DOOR LATCH, AND THEN SHUT IT AGAIN AND AGAIN UNTIL THE DOOR AJAR COMES OFF. I HAD THIS FIXED AT WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY. IT STARTED DOING THIS AGAIN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS LATER. I WAS THEN INFORMED THAT THE DRIVERS DOOR LATCH IS FAULTY AND THE SWITCH INSIDE IS CAUSING THE LIGHT TO STAY ON. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO REPLACE THE LF DOOR LATCH AT $445. IT WAS "CLEANED" ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE GENTLEMEN, BUT NOT REPLACED IN JANUARY WHEN IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. HE SAID IT WILL DO THE SAME THING IT CURRENTLY IS IN ABOUT 6 MONTHS IF THEY JUST CLEAN IT AGAIN AND NOT REPLACE IT. IT IS A HAZARD WHILE DRIVING AND A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. I AM UNSURE WHY IT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN REPLACED ORIGINALLY. I ASSUMED WHEN I TOOK IT IN IT HAD BEEN FIXED AND REPLACED, NOT JUST CLEANED.
DOOR AJAR WARNING BACK PASSENGER DOOR IS CONSTANTLY ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. THIS IS A HUGE CONCERN AND MAJOR PROBLEM. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. FIRST TIME WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALL ISSUE AND FIXED IMMEDIATELY.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING. CANNOT LOCK DOORS, INTERIOR LIGHTS GO ON, WARNING CHIME SOUNDS. VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON WITH DOORS UNLOCKED. DEALER SAID NO RECALL. HAD TO PAY $366.10 FOR A "POSSIBLE" FIX BY CLEANING CONTACT LATCH WITH TOOL AND RECYCLED PER TSB 15-0013.
THE CAR CANNOT RECOGNIZE WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS CLOSED. THE LIGHT PANEL WILL SHOW DOOR OPEN, A LIGHT WILL COME ON TELLING ME THE DOOR IS OPEN, SHIFT INTO PARK, AND IF I AM DRIVING, SOUNDS WILL CHIME UNTIL I PARK. THE DOOR OCCASIONALLY WILL BE RECOGNIZED AS CLOSED, BUT 80% OF THE TIME, IT WILL NOT. I,WAS TOLD AT THE DEALER THAT THE PROBLEM IS COMMON IN FORDS AND THEY NEED TO REPLACE THE LATCH MECHANISM IN THE DOOR.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED.
THE REAR DOOR IS CONTINUALLY STATING THAT IT IS AJAR AND ALL DOORS REFUSE TO LOCK AUTOMATICALLY WHEN PUT IN "DRIVE".
DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON LEAVING DOME LIGHTS ON CAUSING BATTERY TO DIE AND EVERYTIME STOP AT RED LIGHT-CHIMES
WAS DRIVING APPROX. 45 MPH COMING THRU A 5 CORNERS MAJOR INTERSECTION AT PEAK TRAFFIC TIME OF 5:15PM. DRIVING ON STATE FARM TO MARKET ROAD IN TOWN OF 100K RESIDENTS. HAD BEEN DRIVING APPROX. 3 MILES. TEMP IN 80'S, ROADS DRY. COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER, NEARLY REAR ENDED. CAR CREPT A LITTLE, MOVED TO MIDDLE TURN LANE, STRONG FORWARD LURCH/JERK, YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT ON. PUT CAR IN PARK, TURNED IT OFF. TRIED TO START, NOTHING. SAT ABOUT A MINUTE, TRIED, STARTED. LIMPED TO PARKING LOT. TURNED VEHICLE OFF, SAT FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES. THEN TOOK ROUTE HOME GOING THRU SUBDIVISIONS WHERE STALL WOULD NOT JEAPORDIZE LIFE. COULD NOT DRIVE TO DEALER AS THAT WOULD INVOLVE HIGHWAY, AND RISK OF FATAL ACCIDENT. I WAS VERY FORTUNATE TODAY, HAVE NEVER BEEN THAT SCARED DRIVING A VEHICLE IN 40 YRS OF DRIVING.
A FAULTY SWITCH IN DRIVER DOOR CAUSING A CONSTANT FAULTY DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALARM IN CAR...DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AT NIGHT WHILE CAR IS IN REVERSE...DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE THE SENSOR IS SAYING THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN...AFTER PARKING/SHUTDOWN LIGHTS REMAIN ON ADDITIONAL MINUTES, AGAIN SENSING THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN CAUSING UN-NEEDED BATTERY DRAIN...NO RECALL...$400 REPAIR TO REPLACE A CHEAP FAULTY DOOR SWITCH...MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ON INTERNET ABOUT THIS VERY PROBLEM...
DOOR LATCH SENSOR SAYS THE DOORS ARE OPEN. EVEN AFTER REPEATED SHUTTING/SLAMMING OF DOOR. FIRST IT STARTED WITH THE DRIVER SIDE REAR PASSENGER DOOR. RECENTLY IT IS ALSO HAPPENING WITH THE DRIVERS DOOR. WITH BOTH DOORS THE DASH BOARD SENSOR 'DOOR AJAR' COMES ON, SOME LIGHT STAYS ON FOR A FEW MINUTES(WHICH AT NIGHT IS A HUGE PROBLEM). WHEN THE DRIVER DOOR SENSOR MALFUNCTIONS THE AUTO LOCKS ASLO WON'T ENGAGE, WHICH IS ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING OR PARKED AT CERTAIN LOCATIONS. THE DRIVER DOOR SENSOR WILL ALSO ISSUE A WARNING TO 'SHIRT IN PARK'. REPEATED SLAMMING OF DOORS DOES NOT FIX THIS ISSUE. REAR DOOR ISSUE OCCURRED FALL/WINTER 2015 DRIVER DOOR ISSUE OCCURRED 8/30/16
DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY MAKING IT SEEM THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED MAKING FOR UNSAFE CONDITIONS FOR PASSENGERS. CARJACKING VERY POSSIBLE!
FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH WARNING LIGHT AND INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON WHILE DRIVING, DOOR NEEDS TO BE SLAMMED SHUT A COUPLE OF TIMES FOR WARNING LIGHTS TO TURN OFF. WARNING LIGHT APPEARS MORE FREQUENTLY AND NOW APPEARING WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE ON HIGHWAY. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE ON, UNTIL DOOR IS SLAMMED SHUT.
FOR WELL OVER A MONTH, THE DRIVER'S DOOR WARNING WILL NOT GO OFF. EVEN WHEN CAR IS OFF, LIGHTS REMAIN ON INSIDE THE CAR. WHILE DRIVING, LIGHT AND WARNING CONTINUALLY STAY ON, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK BECAUSE SENSOR FOR DOOR REMAINS ON. WHEN I COME TO A STOP WHILE CAR IS RUNNING, WARNING TO SHIFT CAR TO PARK WILL COME ON.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYING ON EVEN AFTER DOOR HAS BEEN COMPLETELY SHUT.
THE DOOR OPEN WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN ITS CLOSED, THIS IS NOT ALLOWING THE DOORS TO CLOSE PROPERLY , THIS ALSO CAUSES THE PANIC ALARM TO GO OFF AND IT KEEPS THE DOME LIGHT ON WHILE DRIVING CAUSING GLARE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE BRIGHT DOME LIGHT STAYING ON. THIS ALSO DRAINS THE BATTER DUE TO THE CONSTANT INTIRIOR LIGHTS STAYING ON WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED AND CLOSED
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REFUELED, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL FILLER PIPE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. IN ADDITION, WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND CAUSED THE BATTERY TO BECOME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR AJAR SWITCH NEEDED TO BE CLEANED AND REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE HEATING SYSTEM FAILED TO OPERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEATING SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,338.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK
THE PASSENGER LEFT REAR DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED. THE SENSOR IS LOCATED ON THE DASHBOARD SCREEN.THE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED WHILE DRIVING EVEN THOU THEY LOCK YOU CAN STILL OPEN THE LOCKED DOOR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAVE A CHILD WHO CAN OPEN THE DOOR AT ANY TIME SINCE THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK! ANOTHER HUGE ISSUE IS BECAUSE THE DOOR SENSOR IS SAYING THE DOOR IS OPEN IT DRAINS THE BATTERY BECAUSE THE LIGHTS STAY ON LONGER. I HAVE ALREADY HAVE TO BEEN JUMPED ONCE AND GET THE BATTERY SAVER IS OFF POP UP ON MY SCREEN WHEN TURNING OFF MY CAR. THE SENSOR LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR THE PAST 2 MONTHS NOW. MY CAR IS ONLY A 2013 WITH 39000 MILES.
THE DOOR SENSOR IS FAULTY SAYING THE DOOR IS AJAR AND KEEPING THE DOME LIGHTS ON. I HAVE ALREADY PUT IN A NEW BATTERY BECAUSE OF THIS THE LIGHTS STAY ON ALL NIGHT AND DAY. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR MOVING THE PROBLEM IS THE SAME
DOOR AJAR LIGHT
THE DOOR AJAR SENSING MECHANISM FAILS CHRONICALLY, RESULTING IN ONGOING ALARMS, WHICH IS DISTRACTING THE DRIVER, AND AN A LEARNED DISREGARD TO THE DOOR POSITION.
DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT LOCK WHILE CAR IS RUNNING. I GET DOOR AJAR MESSAGE EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. WHEN I STOP I GET SHIFT VEHICLE TO PARK MESSAGE. IN ADDITION,THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. THIS IS A BIG DISTRACTION AT NIGHT TIME.
AFTER STARTING VEHICLE, THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. IT STARTED THE FIRST TIME, APRIL OF 2015, 42,799 MILES. TOOK TO DEALER AND SAID IT WAS FIXED. APRIL 2016, 54,629 MILES DID SAME THING. RETURNED TO DEALER, SAID IT WAS FIXED. TODAY AT 58,770 MILES IT IS DOING SAME THING AGAIN. VEHICLE IS PRESENTLY AT THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. DO NOT FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR AGAIN. THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD MAKE FORD RECALL THIS PROBLEM AND GET IT FIXED. DO NOT FEEL IT IS SAFE TO BE DRIVING AND THIS HAPPENS, NO LOCKED DOORS AND INTERIOR LIGHTS CAN COME ON. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, YOU CAN HIT THE OK SWITCH ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO STOP THE WARNING BUZZER FROM CONSTANTLY RINGING TO THE OCCASIONAL REMINDER, BUT THE DOORS STILL DO NOT LOCK. THIS HAPPENS RIGHT AFTER YOU GET IN THE VEHICLE, SHUT THE DOOR AND START THE ENGINE. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN DRIVING AND IT WILL COME ON.
PAST YEAR CAR WARNS TO SHIFT INTO PARK; ALTHOUGH IN PARK. WARNING THAT DRIVERS DOOR IS AJAR, WHEN IT IS CLOSED. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON, CANT LOCK THE DOORS AND CAUSES MY CAR ALARM TO GO OFF AT ANY GIVEN TIME. THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIX. PLEASE RECALL THIS. THERE AND TONS OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE AND ALL OVER THE INTERNET. HOW CAN FORD IGNORE THIS???
DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR SWITCH MALFUNCTIONED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD INDICATE THE DOOR WAS OPEN AT VARIOUS RANDOM TIMES, EVEN WHEN IT WAS CLOSED. TOOK CAR TO DEALER 3/2013 WHERE THEY SERVICED THE LATCH AND THE ISSUE RESOLVED FOR ABOUT A YEAR. TOOK CAR BACK TO DEALER AND THEY WOULDN'T REPAIR IT UNLESS I PAID FOR A NEW LATCH. CLEANING AND LUBRICATING THE LATCH SOMETIMES HELPED FOR A FEW HOURS OR DAYS BUT THE PROBLEM ALWAYS RETURNED. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WITH THE VEHICLE RUNNING OR NOT, AND BOTH STATIONARY AND MOVING. REPLACED THE DRIVER DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY 8/2016 (WHICH CONTAINS THE DOOR SWITCH) AND THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED. THE REPLACEMENT LATCH ASSEMBLY PART NO. 8T4Z-7821813-B HAS BEEN UPDATED TWICE PER FORD PARTS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE 'DRIVER'S DOOR OPEN SHIFT TO PARK' WARNING MESSAGE ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AS A RESULT THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE SECURELY LOCKED ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT OCCUPIED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR MECHANISM FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 42,000.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT, WHEN ALL DOORS ARE PROPERLY CLOSED THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT APPEARS. WHEN VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND SECURED THE SYSTEM STILL SAYS THE DOOR IS AJAR CAUSING THE DOME LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON, THUS DRAINING THE BATTERY. IF DRIVING AT NIGHT THE SYSTEM AGAIN KEEPS THE DOME LIGHT ON WHILE THE VEHICLES MOVING MAKING IT HARD TO SEE OUT OF THE VEHICLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ENGAGE THE BRAKES, AN ABNORMAL SQUEAKING SOUND EMITTED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ROTORS WERE CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR INDICATES THE DRIVERS DOOR IS OPEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURED AND SHUT. INTERIOR LIGHTS AND CHIME COME ON. THIS OCCURS WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED AND WHEN IT IS IN MOTION. THIS WAS NEVER A PROBLEM WITH MY 2007 FORD EDGE. IT IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM THAT FORD NEEDS TO STEP UP AND TAKE OWNERSHIP OF.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. IT WON'T ALLOW YOU TO LOCK THE DOORS AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT WILL STAY LIT. WHEN DRIVING IT WILL TELL YOU TO SHIFT TO PARK. EVEN WHEN YOU OPEN THE DOOR AND CLOSE IT NUMEROUS TIMES IT STILL SAYS DOOR AJAR. ALSO, IF YOU HIT A BUMP OR ROLL DOWN YOUR WINDOW THIS WILL RANDOMLY HAPPEN AS WELL. I CALLED MY LOCAL FORD GARAGE AND THEY SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF THIS ISSUE WITH THE EDGE.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR - WHILE DRIVING DOOR AJAR INDICATOR COMES ON. IT DRAINS MY BATTERY WHILE PARKED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE ISSUE HAS REPEATED ITSELF ON THE DRIVER DOOR.
FOR THE PAST 4 MONTHS THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON. NOT ABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN OR OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. WHILE DRIVING (STREETS OR HIGHWAY) THE SHIFT TO PARK INDICATOR LIGHTS UP, THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR COMES ON, INTERIOR LIGHTS TURN ON, ALL THE DOORS UNLOCK AND THE DOOR OPEN CHIMES ARE HEARD. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY AND OPERATION ISSUED WITH THE PASSENGERS AND VEHICLE.
DRIVER'S DOOR ALERTING AS NOT CLOSED. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON, DOOR OPEN ALERT STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE TO MANUALLY MOVE THE DOOR LATCH TO GET IT TO WORK CORRECTLY. SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT LOCK, AND SOMETIMES IT REMAINS LOCKED SO I CAN'T CLOSE MY DOOR. SINCE THIS STARTED, AS I'M DRIVING, THE ALERT COMES ON TO SHIFT MY CAR IN PARK, BECAUSE THE DOOR IS OPEN!! I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR I DRIVE MY KIDS AROUND FREQUENTLY, AND I DON'T KNOW WHETHER IT WILL CLOSE, LOCK OR OPEN!! WHEN I MANUALLY MOVE THE LATCH, THE ALERTS GO OFF COMPLETELY.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND SENSOR STAY ON INTERMITTENTLY, AS DOES INTERIOR LIGHT. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN THIS OCCURS WHILE DRIVING.
FOR ABOUT A MONTH THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON. NOT ABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN OR OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. WHILE DRIVING (STREETS OR HIGHWAY) THE SHIFT TO PARK INDICATOR LIGHTS UP, THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR COMES ON, INTERIOR LIGHTS TURN ON, ALL THE DOORS UNLOCK AND THE DOOR OPEN CHIMES ARE HEARD. WHEN I INITIALLY CHECKED FOR RECALLS THERE ARE SEVERAL INTERNET STORIES FROM 2014 RELATED TO THIS ISSUE ON THE FORD EDGE. I WAS TOLD ABOUT A RECALL THAT HAD BEEN ISSUED ON FORD VEHICLES SO I TOOK MY EDGE TO SOUTH BAY FORD ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 5, 2016. I WAS TOLD THAT MY EDGE WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. ON AUGUST 4, 2016 CNBC REPORTED THE RECALL OF ABOUT 830,000 FORD VEHICLES (HTTP://WWW.CNBC.COM/2016/08/04/FORD-RECALLS-830000-2012-2016-FORD-AND-LINCOLN-VEHICLES-TO-FIX-LATCHES.HTML) . TO MY SURPRISE THE 2013 FORD EDGE IS NOT LISTED.
THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT COMES ON AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS SHUT. IT'S BLINDING AT NIGHT DUE TO THE FACT IT LEAVES THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS ON CAUSING YOU NOT TO SEE OUTSIDE AND UNSAFE DRIVING WITH UNLOCKED DOORS WITH KIDS
DOOR LATCH MALFUNCTION. DOOR IS PROPERLY CLOSED BUT SENSOR DOESN'T COMMUNICATE TO COMPUTER. DOME LIGHTS STAYS ON, DOOR AJAR WARNING- DRAINS BATTERY WHEN NOT BEING DRIVEN. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK/STAY LOCKED WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. POOR VISIBILITY WHEN REVERSING IN THE DARK AS DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND REFLECTS ON WINDOWS. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE- IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION
WHEN TURNING KEY TO START VEHICLE, "DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR" INDICATOR LIGHT DISPLAYS. WHILE DRIVING, SAME INDICATOR LIGHT REMAINS ON, ALONG WITH CONSTANT "DOOR AJAR" CHIME. AFTER PARKING THE VEHICLE, INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT DIM EVEN THO LATCH IS SECURE--- AND SECURITY ALARM IS ON. ALL OF STATED COMPLAINTS IMPEDE VISIBILITY, AND CREATE ATTENTION AND SAFETY ISSUES. DEALER RESOLVED SAME ISSUES 16 MONTHS AGO BY REPLACING A 5-YEAR BATTERY WITH A BRAND NEW 5-YEAR BATTERY; NOW YET ANOTHER NEW BATTERY IS BEING RECOMMENDED BY DEALER. HARD TO BELIEVE THAT FORD INTENDED FOR CUSTOMERS TO REPLACE AUTO BATTERY EVERY 1.5 YEARS, ESPECIALLY FOR A 3-YEAR OLD VEHICLE.
FORD EDGE 2013 "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT REMAINS ON WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED. IT STAYS ON CONSISTENTLY. IT CAUSES THE DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON LONGER, EFFECTING MY BATTERY AND SAFETY WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE WARNING SIGNAL COMES ON EVERY TIME I STOP CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD AS MY ATTENTION IS SHIFTED OFF THE ROAD TO MY GAUGE AND THE NOISE. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE I HAVE NO WAY OF TELLING IF MY DOOR IS REALLY AJAR BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS ON CONSISTENTLY, EVEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. I HAD THE MECHANISM CLEANED AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP, IT WENT OFF FOR ABOUT A MONTH, AND NOW IS ON AGAIN ALL OF THE TIME. I TOOK IT AGAIN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I NEED A NEW LATCH KIT. MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW THROTTLE BODY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,400.
2013 FORD EDGE WITH 37K MILES. DRIVER "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT COMES ON WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. CAUSING DOORS NOT TO LOCK WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION GOING DOWN ROAD/HIGHWAY. ALSO CAUSES INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON, UNABLE TO SEE OUT THE WINDOWS WHILE THE DOME LIGHTS ARE ON WHILE NIGHT DRIVING. REAR VIEW CAMERA GLITCHES ON AND OFF AND FLIPS UPSIDE DOWN WHICH CAUSES DISTRACTION WHILE BACKING UP AND UNSAFE OPERATING CONDITIONS.
DRIVE'S SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT CONSTANTLY DISPLAYS. INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT DIM BECAUSE CAR THINKS DOOR IS OPEN WHEN LATCH IS SECURE. IN ADDITION, DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED. AS A WOMAN WHO TRAVELS A LOT AND GETS IN HER CAR, ALONE, OFTEN LATE AT NIGHT, I DO TRULY BELIEVE THIS TO BE A TERRIBLY SAFETY ISSUE!!! DOME LIGHTS OFTEN REMAIN ON EVEN WHEN CAR IS OFF A NO ONE IS IN IT. I FEAR IT COULD DRAIN THE BATTERY DEAD WHEN CAR LEFT IN PARK AND OFF. IN ADDITION, I OFTEN HAVE DIFFICULTIES WITH THE CAR'S SYNC SYSTEM AND THE CAR ALMOST ALWAYS HAS EXHAUST/FUEL FUMES WHEN TRAVELING ABOVE 60 MPH. I DON'T KNOW IF ALL OF THESE ISSUES ARE RELATED, BUT WITH A VEHICLE SO DEPENDANT ON ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS FOR OPERATION I WORRY ABOUT A LIFE-THREATENING ISSUE!!!
DRIVER DOOR AJAR WON'T GO OUT OR COMES ON RANDOMLY WILE DRIVING AND INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON AND WON'T GO OFF. DEALER SAYS IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE? WHY CAN POLICE TICKET YOU FOR DRIVING WITH INTERIOR LIGHTS ON IF IT NOT A SAFETY ISSUE? WHY DO THE DOORS LOCK AUTOMATICALLY IF IT IS NO A SAFETY FEATURE? 42,000 MI
THE DOOR ADJAR STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING LEAVING LIGHT DOME ON CAUSING VISIBILITY PROBLEMS AT NIGHT. WHEN I GET HOME I ALWAYS HAVE A HARD TIME CLOSING MY DOOR FOR THE LIGHT DOME TO TURN OFF. MY BATTERY ALREADY DIED HAD TO BUY A NEW BATTERY AND THE CAR WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN 2013! A BATTERY SHOULD NOT DIE THAT SOON! ALL BECAUSE THIS DOOR ADJAR. PLEASE HAVE THIS RECALLED. ALSO. I HAD THIS PROBLEM FIXED FOR A MINUTE WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO GET CHECKED AT FORD WHEN IT WAS STILL IN WARRANTY! THEY FIXED IT FOR THE TIME BEING BUT IT STARTED TO HAPPEN AGAIN. AND MY WARRANTY IS OVER!
MY FORD EDGE INAPPROPRIATELY LEAVES THE DOME LIGHT ON, WON'T LET THE DOORS LOCK, AND SAYS THERE IS A DOOR AJAR. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MY WIFE AND KIDS WHO ARE THE PRIMARY USERS OF THE CAR. I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON TELLS ME TO PUT CAR IN PARK ..I DO THIS AND IT STILL SAYS DOOR IS AJAR ...AS I AM DRIVING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS STILL ON AND THE BELL DINGS EVERYTIME I STOP AND TAKE OFF AGAIN..IF YOU MANUALLY LOCK DOOR THEY IMMEDIATELY COME UNLOCKED...THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING...
2013 FORD EDGE - DOOR AJAR SWITCH HAS GONE BAD IN DRIVERS DOOR. THIS CAUSES DOME LIGHT TO COME ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. MY WIFE HAD TROUBLE GETTING THE EDGE BACK HOME AT NIGHT BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T SEE WITH THE DOME LIGHT ON. SEARCHING INTERNET INDICATES THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR MANY NEWER FORD VEHICLE OWNERS. THE ALARMS AND DASH WRITTEN WARNINGS ABOUT A DOOR BEING AJAR (WHEN IT'S NOT) IS A NUISANCE AND BEGIN TO TRY AND IGNORE IT. UNFORTUNATELY, WHEN IT IS AJAR, YOU WILL NOT PAY THE WARNINGS ANY ATTENTION. THE NIGHT DRIVING WITH THE DOME LIGHT ON IS THE BIGGEST SAFETY ISSUE.
THE DOOR AJAR ERROR KEEPS COMING ON AND WON'T GO OFF, WHICH IN TURN KEEPS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON.
DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS SHUT PREVENTING INTERIOR LIGHTS FROM GOING OFF.
THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL REMAINS LIT WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED, PREVENTING THE ABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHILE DRIVING, AND CAUSING INTERNAL CAR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON.
WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON, WHICH THEN CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHT IN THE CAR TO STAY ON. I HAVE TO OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES TO TRY AND GET THEY DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO SHUT OFF SO THE DOORS CAN LOCK AND I CAN DRIVE. *TR
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT CONSTANTLY DISPLAY. INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT DIM BECAUSE CAR THINKS DOOR IS OPEN WHEN LATCH IS SECURE. AND DOOR IS PROPERLY CLOSED. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT SHUT OFF. I FEAR IT COULD DRAIN THE BATTERY DEAD WHEN CAR LEFT IN PARK AND OFF. NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. *TR
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR ALWAYS SAYS MY DRIVER DOOR IS OPEN NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I CLOSE IT. BECAUSE THE CAR THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN I CAN'T LOCK THE CAR DOORS THEREFORE I CAN'T GO ANYWHERE. THE SENSOR ALSO MAKES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS GO ON AND THEY DON'T SHUT OFF. IT MAKES IT VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING AT NIGHT. IT JUST STARTED HAPPENING AFTER I STARTED MY CAR AND LEFT FOR WORK.
DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY IS FAULTY AND THE PASSENGER DOOR ALWAYS SHOWS AJAR.
IN 2015 WE TOOK OUR EDGE IN TO THE SHOP BECAUSE THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR WOULD STILL BE ON WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. THIS WOULD NOT ALLOW THE DOORS TO LOCK GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND WOULD HAVE AN ANNOYING MESSAGE TELLING ME TO SHIFT TO PARK AS I CAME UP TO A RED LIGHT. THEY SAID THAT THEY COULD CLEAN IT AND THAT SHOULD FIX IT BUT THAT WOULD ONLY BE TEMPORARY AND THAT THEY WOULD PROBABLY EVENTUALLY REPLACE THE SWITCH. AGAIN THIS MONTH, JULY 2016, IT HAS STARTED AGAIN. THE "SHIFT TO PARK" MESSAGES AND NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE DOOR AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON ALL HAPPENING AGAIN. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, EVEN AFTER THEY REPLACE THE SWITCH, THIS DOESN'T COMPLETELY FIX THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT WILL START TO OCCUR AGAIN AFTER A FEW MONTHS. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. THE DEALERS ARE MAKING A FEW 100 BUCKS FROM EVERY PERSON THAT SHOWS UP TO GET IT "REPAIRED". IT IS GOING OFF RIGHT NOW, AS I TYPE THIS, AS MY WIFE IS DRIVING AND I AM AT WORK AND SHE CALLED ME.
ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO (AROUND JULY 8, 2016) I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMING ON. IT WOULD SOMETIMES GO OFF ON ITS OWN OR WHEN I OPENED AND CLOSED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR A FEW TIMES. THIS HAS PROGRESSED TO THE POINT TO WHERE THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON ALL THE TIME WHEN THE CAR IS ON. MY DOME LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHTS, HEADLIGHTS AND DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT WILL COME ON RANDOMLY WHEN THE CAR IS SHUT OFF, OF COURSE CREATING PROBLEMS WITH RUNNING THE BATTERY DOWN. AS I DRIVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR DRIVING IN TOWN, WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES CREATE A DRIVING HAZARD WHEN THEY GO OFF. I HAVEN'T HAD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT YET, BUT THE DOME LIGHT COMING ON RANDOMLY WILL DEFINITELY CAUSE A DRIVING HAZARD. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.
MY FORD EDGE HAS A DOOR AJAR PROBLEM WHICH IS VERY WELL KNOWN AND SHOULD BE RECALLED THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS YOU WOULD NOT KNOW IF THE DOOR IS CLOSED OR REALLY OPEN DUE TO THE FAULTY SWITCH
TAKATA RECALL DASH IS COMING APART AT SEAM OF AIR BAG ON PASSAGES SIDE07/01/2016.
THE DOOR AJAR SWITCH IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY, MY INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AFTER I LOCK THE DOORS, THE DOOR AJAR CHIME RINGS THE WHOLE TIME I'M DRIVING. THIS IMPEDES VISIBILITY, ATTENTION, AND COULD HAVE ADVERSE SAFETY CONSEQUENCES.
DOOR AJAR, LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF EVEN WITH DOOR CLOSED
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON WHILE DOOR IS CLOSED (IN MOTION, IDLE AND OFF), RESULTING IN THE BATTERY TO BE DRAINED IF LEFT OFF TOO LONG. THIS HAS LEFT ME NEEDING TO GET A JUMP IF OUT AND MULTIPLE TIMES CHARGE MY BATTERY IF IT SITS TOO LONG.
DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET. STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND WHEN IT WAS GREEN WE GOT UP TO ABOUT 45 MPH, THE CAR STARTED SPUTTERING WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. IT WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND WE HAD TO PULL OVER INTO THE TURN LANE. WE COULD NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO A DEALER. DEALER ADVISED FAULTY THROTTLE BODY WHICH I UNDERSTAND IS A KNOWN ISSUE.
DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. PREVENTS DRIVER FROM KNOWING OF A REAL DOOR AJAR SITUATION. INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON, CREATING A NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD AND WHEN SITTING IN CAR AT NIGHT. DOORS NO LONGER LOCK WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. FAULTY LATCH OR SENSOR. ALL ISSUES STEMMING FOR FAULTY DOOR LATCH OR SENSOR. THIS HAS CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL WEEKS.
DRIVERS DOOR SHOWS AJAR WHEN DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUES AS THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN THIS IS HAPPENING. BATTERY WILL DIE BECAUSE THE DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED. THIS IS AN ISSUE AND THESE CARS NEED TO BE RECALLED. JUST PURCHASED CAR.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON AND WILL NOT SHUT OFF EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SHUT AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. THIS IS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING. THE WARNING TELLS YOU TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK EVEN WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT MAKES A SIGNAL SOUND THAT WILL NOT STOP. THE INSIDE LIGHT WILL NOT SHUT OFF. WILL IT RUN THE BATTERY DOWN?
2013 FORD EDGE VEHICLE LOOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY POINT WHILE DRIVING OR SIMPLY BACKING UP IT WILL STALL AND SHAKE AND PRESSING THE GAS DOES NOTHING. THE CAR BASICALLY SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING.. THE ONLY THING YOU CAN DO IS COAST AND PRAY THAT YOU MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER OF THE FREEWAY SAFELY. THE THROTTLE BODY HAS BEEN FIXED LESS THAN 8 MONTHS AGO AND STILL ISSUE HAS STARTED AGAIN. I'VE SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUNDS PAGES AND PAGES AND PAGES OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS... THERE WAS ALSO A RECALL OF OTHER FORD VEHICLES WITH THAT SAME ISSUE... WHEN I INITIALLY TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP (JOE MYERS FORD ON NWO FREEWAY) MY SERVICE REP ADVISED THAT IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE EVEN IN THE 2016 MODELS. HE DROVE ONE THE SAME DAY WITH THAT ISSUE.. BUT OF COURSE I PAID $900 TO HAVE THIS ISSUE RESOLVED.. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED BEFORE SOMEONE DIES.
DOOR AJAR WARNING IS PRESENT WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES WE CLOSE THE DOOR, THE LIGHT STAYS ON. WE ARE ABLE TO BOTH PARK AND DRIVE WITH THIS ALARM ON BUT THE CABIN LIGHTS STAY ON THE ENTIRE TIME. WE EXPERIENCED THE FIRST ISSUE IN JANUARY 2015 AND THE FORD FULLER DEALERSHIP IN CHULA VISTA, CA REPLACE IT BECAUSE THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. JULY 2016, THE SAME WARNING WAS APPEARING ON THE DASH BOARD WITH THE SAME ISSUE. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED IT, AND HAD THE FIRST REPAIR DONE, AND THEY WOULD NOT COVER THEIR FAULTY WORK. THEY STATED THAT SINCE OUR 3 YEAR WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED THE ISSUE WOULD NO LONGER BE COVERED, REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT THEY "FIXED" THE ISSUE WHEN IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY GUARANTEE THEIR REPAIRS FOR 2 YEARS. WE ENDED UP HAVING TO REPLACE OUR DOOR LATCH AGAIN AS WELL AS A NEW BATTERY FOR THIS ISSUE. WE HOPE A RECALL IS MADE SOON BECAUSE THIS IS GETTING OUT OF CONTROL AND PRICEY.
"DRIVER DOOR AJAR" AROUND 40K PLUS MILES WE STARTED GETTING THIS ISSUE. EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSE IT KEEPS SAYING "DRIVER DOOR AJAR". IT WON'T LOCK THE DOOR BECAUSE OF THIS. EVEN WHEN YOU PARKED AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE ONCE YOU TRY TO LOCK THE DOOR IT WON'T. THIS MAY CAUSE POTENTIAL BATTERY DAMAGE OR WORST PEOPLE CAN JUST SIMPLY OPEN YOUR DOOR WHEN YOU ARE IN A STOP WHILE ON THE ROAD. APPARENTLY I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE. THIS ISSUE IS VERY COMMON, TRY YOUTUBE AND SEARCH FOR FORD DOOR AJAR. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE GETTING THIS ISSUE BUT STILL NO RECALL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DOOR LATCH WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR DISPLAY IS ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. TAKES MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO CLOSE DOOR FOR THE DISPLAY LIGHT TO GO AWAY. WHEN LIGHT IS ON, DOORS WON'T LOCK AND DO NOT KNOW IF A REAL DOOR AJAR MESSAGE IS VALID. ALSO, CAR LOSES POWER WHEN DRIVING. JUST LOSES POWER AND IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IF YOU CAN'T GET OFF THE ROAD IN TIME BEFORE GETTING HIT. HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT BOTH SAFETY ISSUES WITH THE EDGE, DOOR LOCK SENSOR AND HALFSHAFT RETENTION CIRCLIP COMING LOOSE.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON DUE TO A FAULTY SWITCH WITHIN THE DOOR. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AS THE DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE DRIVING AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHICH IS DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND FORD FAILS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUED TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. IT KEEPS ME FROM LOCKING THE DOORS WHILE INSIDE. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE ISSUE FIXED WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY FOR THE DRIVER DOOR BUT THE SAME ISSUE IS HAPPENING AGAIN WITH THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. THIS ISSUE IS PRESENT AT ALL TIMES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, A CHIME SOUNDED AND THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED; HOWEVER, THE DOOR WAS CLOSED SECURELY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN DRIVING AND AFTER THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. THE DRIVER'S SIDE INTERIOR DOOR WOULD NOT UNLOCK WHENEVER THE FAILURE OCCURRED AND THE CONTACT HAD TO EXIT FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED TEN MONTHS AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR THE MOST RECENT FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000. UPDATED 09/08/16*LJ *JS
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR IS STAYING ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT AND VERIFIED TO BE SHUT ALL THE WAY. THE BELL CHIMES AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON MAKING DRIVING THE VEHICLE AWKWARD AND HAZARDOUS. THE INDICATOR STAYS ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. THIS IS LISTED AS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT YET FORD HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. COST TO REPAIR APPROXIMATELY $400.
MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF WHEN I CLOSE THE DOOR. MY CAR DOORS WILL NOT LOCK EVEN MANUALLY WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. MY BATTERY IS ALSO GOING TO DIE DUE TO THE DOME LIGHT NEVER SHUTTING OFF.
DRIVERS AND DRIVER SIDE DOOR SAY A JAR EVEN WITH DOORS CLOSED TIGHTLY.
I REPEATEDLY GET A DRIVER DOOR AJAR MESSAGE EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS CAN OCCUR AS SOON AS I START THE ENGINE OR WHEN THE AUTOMATIC LOCKS TRY TO ENGAGE AS I START TO DRIVE. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN IT CAME ON AFTER DRIVING FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME. THE LOCKS DO NOT ENGAGE AND THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON AND A CHIMING SOUND ALONG WITH A MESSAGE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. IT IS A MAJOR DISTRACTION TO DRIVE WITH THE CHIMING WHICH GOES OFF BRIEFLY WHEN BRAKING BUT THEN RIGHT BACK ON WHEN I HIT THE GAS AGAIN. BESIDES THAT IF I'M DRIVING AT NIGHT THE INTERIOR LIGHTS MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHERE I'M GOING. IT ALSO MAKES ME FEEL VERY UNEASY DRIVING WITH CHILDREN OR IN AN UNSAFE NEIGHBORHOOD KNOWING THAT I CANNOT KEEP THE DOORS LOCKED. I'VE TRIED CLOSING THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES. I USUALLY GIVE UP AFTER 6 OR 7 TRYS. I'VE HAD THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE 4 TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. IT SEEMS TO BE FIXED TEMPORARILY BUT AFTER A FEW MONTHS IT STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THIS IS NOT A SAFETY HAZARD AND THAT THERE ISN'T A PERMANENT FIX.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED ME OF THE LOCKING SENSOR/ASSEMBLY BEING FAULTY AND THAT I NEED TO HAVE THIS CHANGED BECAUSE THE BATTERY CAN DRAIN. REPAIRS COST ABOUT $400 SINCE I WAS 3,000 MILES BEYOND OF THE WARRANTY.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH IS DEFECTIVE. THE DOOR IS AJAR LIKE STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED. INSIDE CABIN AND DOME LIGHTS STAY ON WHICH CREATES A HAZARD AT NIGHT. MORE IMPORTANTLY THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WITH THE "DOOR IS AJAR" SIGNAL ON. THIS REALLY CONCERNS ME BECAUSE MY WIFE (WHOSE CAR IT IS) CAN BE SUBJECT TO A POTENTIAL CARJACKING OR ROBBERY. ADDITIONALLY IT POSES A THREAT TO MY GRANDCHILDREN BECAUSE WE CANNOT ENGAGE THE CHILD LOCK SAFETY FEATURE. FORD TOLD ME IF WOULD COST $400 JUST IN LABOR AND NOT INCLUDING PART TO REPAIR. TO KEEP MY BATTERY FROM DRAINING I HAVE HAD TO REMOVE THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS. ANOTHER PERSONAL SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FROM A MAJOR MANUFACTURER. APPARENTLY THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM. NO ONE SEEMS TO WANT TO CORRECT IT. MY CAR ONLY HAS 42K. WHAT'S TO BE DONE.
IN A CRASH INVOLVING A FRONT END COLLISION WHERE A TRUCK TURNED LEFT STRIKING OUR EDGE IN THE FRONT LEFT, THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WE WERE TRAVELING ABOUT 25 MPH AND THE OTHER VEHICLE AT ABOUT 15-20 MPH. MY WIFE SUFFERED A FRACTURED LEG AND I BACK ISSUES. THE CRASH WAS SEVERE ENOUGH TO TOTAL THE VEHICLE. IT HAPPENED SO FAST I DID NOT APPLY BRAKES. THE OTHER VEHICLE WAS AN OLDER DODGE DAKOTA PICKUP.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT. CONSTANT CHIMES WEB PAID $139.55 TO FIX AND IT HAS STARTED TO DO IT AGAIN
THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT COMES ON ALL OF THE TIME WHICH DOESN'T ALLOW TO LOCK THE DOOR AND KEEPS THE LIGHTS ON WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY. I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR ($500)
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR LATCH. " DOOR AJAR" DOES NOT GO OFF. CAUSES DOOR LOCKS TO NOT ENGAGE WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION. CHIME RINGS WHENEVER CAR STOPS IN TRAFFIC. YOU CAN RESET WITH ACKNOWLEDGMENT, BUT THE ALARM IMMEDIATELY GOES OFF WHEN CAR STOPS AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. STARTED HAPPENING OFF AND ON, BUT AS TIME WENT ON IT HAPPENED EVERY TIME DRIVING CAR.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATION WHEN DOOR IS SECURED CLOSED. WHILE CAR IS IN GEAR THE "DOOR AJAR" INDICATION ALONG WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTING ILLUMINATING. AT TIMES THE INDICATION DOES NOT COME ON UNTIL THE DOOR AUTO LOCK LOCKS DURING DRIVING. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM BUT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE FORD MANUFACTURER. THE RANDOM FAULTY INDICATION TAKES DRIVER'S FOCUS AND ATTENTION FROM DRIVING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
BRAKE BOOSTER - THERE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH A DEFECTIVE PART (BRAKE BOOSTER) ON THE FORD EDGE AS IDENTIFIED BY FORD IN THE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02. DESPITE FORD'S KNOWLEDGE OF THE FAULTY/DEFECTIVE PART, THEY ONLY ISSUED A RECALL FOR VEHICLES BUILT AT THE OAKVILLE ASSEMBLY PLANT. MY CAR BEGAN TO FAIL ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO AND I TOOK IT TO BE SERVICED. THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THE SYMPTOMS WERE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE CAR WAS SHUTTING DOWN WHEN STOPPED AT RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGNS. AFTER A WEEK OR SO MY BRAKES GAVE OUT SUDDENLY CAUSING ME TO VEER OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID HITTING A CAR. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE FORD SERVICE AREA AND WAS TOLD THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS BAD AND THAT WAS CAUSING THE BRAKE FAILURE AND THE ENGINE CUTTING OFF. FORD IS AWARE OF THE DANGEROUS BRAKE FAILURE CAUSED BY THE FAULTY/DEFECTIVE BRAKE BOOSTER, BUT REFUSES TO RECALL ALL VEHICLES THAT ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A ROAD HAZARD AND CONSUMER SAFETY ISSUE THAT CAUSES UNSAFE CONDITIONS THAT FORD NEEDS TO ACKNOWLEDGE ON ALL FORD EDGE VEHICLES AND NOT A SELECT FEW.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON, UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHILE CAR IS IN GEAR. WARNING ALARM SOUNDS TELLING DRIVER TO PUT VEHICLE IN PARK., INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING CAR SINCE YOU CANNOT LOCK DOORS CHILDREN IN BACK CAN OPEN DOOR.. DEALER REPAIRED AT A COST OF $ 305. THIS SHOULD HAVE HAD A SAFETY RECALL BY FORD
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

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE MARCH 29, 2016. LESS THAN 2 MONTHS LATER THE VEHICLE STARTED RANDOMLY STALLING AND GOING INTO LIMP MODE AND I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE BUSY DC HIGHWAY WITH 2 SMALL CHILDREN IN THE BACK WHICH WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND A WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON BUT IT CUT OFF AFTER A RESTART. AUTO ZONE COULDNT READ THE CODES UNLESS THE CAR WAS MALFUNCTIONING AT THE TIME WHICH HAPPENS RANDOMLY. SINCE THE CAR IS STILL WITHIN THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS P2111 ELECTRIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. THE ADVISOR AGREED THAT THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM IN FORD MODELS AND I READ THAT A CONSUMER SAFETY PROGRAM WAS STARTED FOR OTHER FORD MODELS WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THE ADVISOR SAID IT IS NOT COVERED BY THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AND SINCE THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM WITH FORD EDGES I HAVE TO PAY $800+ DOLLARS TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. APPARENTLY SOMEONE HAS TO LOSE THEIR LIFE BEFORE FORD ISSUES A RECALL ON THIS KNOWN ISSUE. I HOPE THE NHTSA STEPS IN BEFORE SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENS! IVE ATTACHED A PICTURE SHOWING THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH AFTER ABOUT THE 10TH TIME THE CAR STALLED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,570.
THE FAULTY DOOR CLOSED SWITCH AND/OR DESIGN IS INDICATING THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. THIS ISSUE IS CAUSING ALL THE DOORS TO REMAIN UNLOCKED WHILE DRIVING OR UNLOCK DURING DRIVING IF IT GOES OFF. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ADDRESSED BY THE FORD DEALERSHIP TWICE AND NOW IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY THEY DO NOT WANT TO FIX IT. IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.
MY REAR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS CLOSED AND YET THE DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON THEREFORE MY DOORS DON'T AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHEN IN MOTION. AND WHEN THE KEY IS PULLED OUT OF THE IGNITION ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS AND THE LIGHTS ON MY SIDE MIRRORS STAY ON UNTIL I START THE CAR AGAIN SO THEY STAY ON FOR HOURS AT A TIME, MAKING EVERY BULB VERY HOT AND DRAINING MY BATTERY. I FIGURED THIS WAS JUST MORE WEAR AND TEAR BUT AFTER LOOKING INTO IT IT SEEMS MANY OTHER EDGE OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE.
THE DRIVER SIDE LATCH AND DOOR AJAR SENSOR ARE DEFECTIVE. THE CAR DOES NOT PROPERLY REGISTER THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS FORCES THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND SOUND TO REPEATEDLY GO OFF. THIS ALSO KEEPS THE DOME LIGHT ON WHEN SHUTTING THE DOOR THUS KILLING THE BATTERY. ALSO, YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH KIDS AND WITH ITEMS IN THE CAR BEING STOLEN.
I CURRENTLY OWN A 2013 FORD EDGE 2013 THAT IS EXPERIENCING BRAKE FAILURE. DURING BRAKING (WHILE IN MOTION, IN THE CITY, HIGHWAY, INTERSTATE, AND TURNING THE VEHICLE LOSES SIGNIFICANT BREAKING PERFORMANCE. WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE THE VEHICLE DOES NOT STOP AT TIMES AND THE BRAKE PEDAL HARDENS AND HISSES DURING BREAKING. THIS BEGAN WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 2016. IN REVIEW FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKE BOOSTER FOR YEARS 2010-2013. WHEN CONTACTING FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SPEAKING TO AARON EMPLOYEE NUMBER 62306, HE STATED THAT MY VEHICLE FELL A FEW MONTHS OUTSIDE OF THE COVERED VEHICLES. SPOKE TO JEREMY AT STIVERS FORD DEALERSHIP IN MONTGOMERY, AL. THEY WILL NOT REVIEW THE ISSUE UNLESS I PAY $ 99.95 DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT FORD NOR STIVER WILL RELIEVE THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF THE REPAIRS NOR SUPPLY A LOANER FOR THE DURATION OF FIXING. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET HELP, INCLUDING CONTACTING THE SERVICE MANAGER OF STIVER'S FORD JEFF ANDERSON, THERE HAS BEEN NO URGENT MATTER TO FIX OR HELP WITH GETTING THIS RESOLVED. AS IT STANDS THIS VEHICLE IS SAFETY HAZARD AND IS LOSING ITS BRAKING PERFORMANCE WHICH WILL LEAD TO ROAD HAZARD OF POSSIBLE FATALITY. THIS IS ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION FOR MY FAMILY OF MYSELF (SINGLE MOTHER AND TWO SMALL CHILDREN).
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.

DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT WON'T GO OFF WHEN YOU CLOSE THE DOOR. IT'S BEEN TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY DON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. SEEMS LIKE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM AMONGST ALL FORD EDGE PRODUCTS.
MY DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALERT WILL POPUP, OF COURSE THE DOOR IS SHUT, I HAVE TO ON A DAILY BASIS RESHUT THE DOOR TO CLOSE OUT THE ALERT, THIS IS INTERMITTENT, I KNOW THE PROBLEM IS BECOMING WORSE, IT WILL OCCUR DURING THE DRIVE OF THE CAR, THE USUAL STUFF, WHEN THE DOOR IS AJAR, LITES COME ON, THE TONE, DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK. I KNOW AS WELL THAT SOMETHING IS REALLY GOING ON AS I SHUT THE CAR OFF, GO AND REMOTE LOCK THE CAR, THE CAR HORN BEEPS TWICE, ITS SUPPOSED TO BEEP ONCE AND THEN LOCK, OTHERWISE, THE DOME LITES REMAIN ON FOR OVER 5 MINUTES, AND THE CAR WILL NOT LOCK, WHICH TO ME IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. YOU CAN NOT LOCK THE MANUALLY EITHER THIS PROBLEM IS SLOWING DRAINING MY BATTERY. TO THE POINT I WILL BE STUCK SOMEWHERE. ANOTHER SAFETY HAZARD.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR FAILED TO REMAIN CLOSED AND THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED.

DRIVER SIDE "DOOR AJAR" ALERT REMAINS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHT REMAINS ON, DRAINING BATTERY. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE VEHICLE IS MOVING. IF DOORS ARE LOCKED MANUALLY, AUTOMATIC UNLOCK OCCURS IMMEDIATELY.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE VEHICLE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT A WEEK AGO. I CAN NOT GET THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO SHUT OFF. IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW HARD OR SOFT IS SHUT IT, IT WILL STAY ON. I DRIVE 20 MILES TO WORK EVERYDAY. IT IS A BIG SAFETY HAZARD. WHEN I DO GET IT TO SHUT OFF , WHILE DRIVING IT WILL POP BACK ON.. THEN MY INTERIOR LIGHTS COME AND I HAVE A HARD TIME GETTING THEM OFF. I HAVE 2 KIDS AND THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME. I SEE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE BUT NO RECALL. THE LOCKS WILL LOT LOCK WITH THIS LIGHT ON. LIKE I SAID BEFORE I HAVE KIDS AND THIS IS A BIG CONCERN FOR ME.
MY CAR KEEPS SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND THERE ARE MULTIPLE SITES THAT INDICATE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE ELECTRIC THROTTLE BODY. FORD SAYS MY VIN IS EXCLUDED FROM THIS WARRANTY. I FEEL THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT SINCE IT MAY BE AFFECTING A WIDER RANGE THAN PREVIOUSLY DISCOVERED.
ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE RESULTING IN LOSS OF POWER . ENGINE STALLED WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. DRIVER AND 3 PASSENGERS ENDANGERED WHILE TURNING LEFT ACROSS 2 LANES OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC, VEHICLE STALLS CREATING A DEADLY SITUATION. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP WHERE UPON TESTING THE FAULTY ETB WAS CONFIRMED . FORD WON'T COVER IT. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN DEC. 2012( 35000 MILES ). FORD HAS A PROBLEM WITH ETB'S ON OTHER MODELS AND EXTENDED COVERAGE TO 10 YEARS/ 150000 MILES . WHY IS MY VEHICLE NOT COVERED WITH SUCH A DANGEROUS PART FAILURE?
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WAS PERSISTENTLY ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOORS WERE COMPLETELY SHUT. THE FAILURE WAS PERSISTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000.
LESS THAN 24 HOURS AFTER I PURCHASED THIS CERTIFIED USED VEHICLE FROM A FORD DEALER, DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR WARNING APPEARS WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS FIRMLY LATCHED. ALL DOORS INSTANTLY AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING. DOORS CANNOT BE RE-LOCKED BECAUSE THEY IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK AGAIN. THIS REPRESENTS AN ACCIDENT HAZARD BECAUSE IT ALLOWS OCCUPANTS TO POTENTIALLY BE THROWN FROM THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION. THIS CONDITION IS APPARENTLY DUE TO A FAULTY DOOR LATCH SWITCH AND IS WELL DOCUMENTED BY HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR ISSUE- WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE PARKED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON EVEN WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE DOOR LOCKS WILL ALSO NOT STAY LOCKED. THIS WILL HAPPEN WHETHER DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY OR IN THE CITY. EVERY TIME YOU DRIVE THE CAR THIS WILL HAPPEN. WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND PARKED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON. I HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES IN ORDER FOR THE LIGHTS TO FINALLY SHUT OFF.

DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALWAYS ON, SOMETIMES DOORS WANT LOCK WITH DOOR AJAR, MAKES CAR UNSAFE INSIDE LIGHTS STAY ON, UNSAFE. ENGINE LIGHT ON, HAS CAME ON TWICE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, FIRST CODE CHECK EVAP EMISSION SYSTEM.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY FORD THEY EVEN HAVE A TECHNICAL BULLETIN ON THE ISSUE. MANY DISCUSSION ON LINE EXIST ABOUT THE SAME CONDITION. THESE ARE NOT OLD VEHICLES. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. 1. INTERIOR LIGHTS CAN COME ON DUE TO THIS ISSUE AT ANY TIME CAUSING A BLINDING ISSUE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. 2. UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN VEHICLE. 3. UNABLE TO KNOW IF THE DOOR IS REALLY CLOSED PROPERLY. 4. THREE WARNINGS CONTINUE TO POP UP CONTINUALLY WHILE DRIVING THAT ENGINE IS ON, SHIFT TO PARK AND DOOR AJAR. PLEASE REQUEST THAT FORD DOES THE RIGHT THING FOR SAFETY AND RECALLS THIS DEFECTIVE PART.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SHOWS IT IS AJAR WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS WILL NOT ALLOW THE DOORS TO BE LOCKED WHILE DRIVING. ALSO THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF. THIS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD BOTH DURING THE DAY AND NIGHT. READING ONLINE A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN MADE DATING BACK TO THE 2011 MODELS. HTTP://M.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/FORD/EDGE/2013/ACCESSORIES-INTERIOR/DOOR_AJAR_LIGHT_ON.SHTML THERE DOZENS OF POSTS ONLINE REGARDING THIS SAME PROBLEM BUT YET NO RECALL TO DATE
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE WITH ALL THE DOORS CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.
WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE, I COMPLETELY LOST POWER. MY CAR WAS DRIVING ON ITS OWN, ABOUT 2MPH ON THE ROAD, WHILE EVERYONE ELSE WAS DRIVING 45MPH. THIS HAPPENED SUDDENLY, AND MY CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP WHEN I WAS AT A RED LIGHT. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY SCARY SITUATION BECAUSE WHILE I WAS DRIVING, MY CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED. THE CARS AROUND ME COULD HAVE EASILY COLLIDED WITH MINE, ESPECIALLY WHEN MY CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD AND PUT IT IN PARK. WHILE MY CAR WAS IN PARK, IT WAS SHAKING. I HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT I HAVE A THROTTLE BODY PROBLEM. THIS IS SOMETHING I NEVER HEARD OF. BUT TO KNOW THAT AT ANY TIME, MY CAR CAN RANDOMLY STOP ON ITS OWN IS SCARY. I WAS TOLD THAT FORD IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM, BUT IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED. FORD HAS A DUTY TO MAKE SURE THAT ITS PRODUCT IS SAFE FOR THE ORDINARY CONSUMER. A BREACH OF THAT DUTY IS PUTTING AN UNSAFE PRODUCT OUT THERE, AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, AND NOT TAKING REMEDIAL MEASURES. SOMEONE CAN LOSE THEIR LIFE BY A CAR COMPLETELY LOSING POWER ON THE ROAD, AND THAT LIFE COULD HAVE BEEN MINE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM THAT FORD IS CLEARLY AWARE OF.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLES DOOR AJAR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD ALSO ILLUMINATE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND TURNED OFF, AS IF THERE WAS A DOOR AJAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR SWITCH GOES BAD. WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY FORD WANTS $450.00 TO REPAIR. THE PART IS $38.00 ON LINE. THERE ARE TONS OF COMPLAINTS ON LINE FOR THIS SAME ISSUE.
DOOR AJAR WARNING WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. SAME SYMPTOMS AS EVERYONE ELSE. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS WILL IT TAKE TO GET A RECALL?
VEHICLE WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH. YELLOW WRENCH ICON CAME ON, AND ENGINE POWER WAS LOST. COASTED OUT OF TRAFFIC AND INTO PARKING LOT. TURNED CAR OFF AND BACK ON, AND VEHICLE RAN NORMALLY WITH NO ERROR LIGHTS. TURNED CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND DROVE APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES WITH NO RECURRENCE. DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERNS OF HAVING THE ENGINE STALL AGAIN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR, TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP STATED NO ERROR CODES WERE STORED, AND RECOMMENDS REPLACING THROTTLE BODY FOR $700+ BASED ON THEIR HISTORY WITH SIMILAR SITUATIONS.
WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, DRIVING DOWN A STATE HIGHWAY, IT STOPPED RESPONDING TO PRESSURE ON THE ACCELERATOR.A LIGHT ON THE DASH ADVISED ME TO CHECK THE MANUAL. I HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD, TURN OFF THE ENGINE, THEN RESTART IT, WHICH RESET THE THROTTLE AN ALLOWED ME TO CONTINUE HOME. THIS PROCESS WAS REPEATED THREE TIMES ON THE INTERSTATE ON MY WAY TO WORK. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM IN JANUARY, WHEN THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM, AND SENT ME HOME IN A FAULTY VEHICLE, ONLY TO HAVE IT DELIVERED TO THEM VIA TOW TRUCK A DAY LATER, RESULTING IN THEM REPLACING THE THROTTLE BODY. FIVE MONTHS LATER, I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY, SO THEY WONT REPLACE IT. THEY DO, HOWEVER WANT TO CHARGE ME A $120 DIAGNOSTIC FEE, AFTER I TOLD THEM EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. THIS HAS PUT MY LIFE IN DANGER A TOTAL OF SIX TIMES, TO DATE. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR ADJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON. CLOSING THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN WARNING LIGHT IS ON. THIS IS A HAZARD FOR PARENTS WITH SMALL CHILDREN.
VEHICLE DOOR SHOWS OPEN ALL THE TIME AND COMES ON DURING DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THIS WILL LIGHT THE DOME LIGHTS IN THE CAR AT NIGHT AND MAKES IT HARD TO SEE, VERY UNSAFE. ALSO CAR WILL NOT LOCK WHEN DOOR LATCH STICKS OR WHATEVER IT IS DOING. FLASHES ERROR WHEN CAR IS MOVING TO SHIFT TO PARK.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. AFTER CLOSING THE DRIVER'S DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR WAS NOT CLOSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOSS POWER TO TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE AND ENDED UP GOING 1 MPH. COULD NOT ACCELERATE AND BARELY MISSED BEING STRUCK BY OTHER VEHICLES. "WRENCH" WARNING INDICATOR CAME ON AND I PULLED MY AUTO OVER TO SIDE OF ROADWAY. TURNED THE IGNITION OFF, WAITED 1 MINUTE AND RESTARTED AND THE AUTO WAS NORMAL AGAIN. DAY LATER PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC SAME EPISODE AGAIN JUST BARLEY AVOIDING A COLLISION AGAIN. DEALERSHIP ADVISES FAULTY ELECTRIC THROTTLE BODY DEFECTIVE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THIS RESULTS IN A FATALITY. I HAD TWO SEPARATE INCIDENTS THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A FATALITY. WHEN THE VEHICLE GOES LIMP YOU ARE POWERLESS TO DO ANYTHING IF YOUR LUCKY TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT GETTING HIT FROM THE REAR OR T-BONED.
I WAS DRIVING AT 50 MPH DOWN A STATE ROAD AND THE CAR STALLED WITH NO WARNING. THERE WAS NO PLACE FOR ME TO PULL OVER AS THERE IS NO BREAKDOWN LANES AND CAR DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO GO OVER CURB. CAR WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS TOLD IT IS THE TROTTLE BODY. THE PART IS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER AND WAS TOLD THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVALIABLE. THIS CAR HAS 44120 MILES. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY BAD SITUATION IF THE TOW COMPANY I CALLED WAS NOT 4 MILES AWAY AND HURRY TO MY RESCUE KNOWING THAT I WAS ON A VERY FAST ROAD AND COULD NOT GET OUT OF ROAD TO SAFETY.
DOOR AJAR WARNING ON DRIVER SIDE DOOR CAUSES DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON. SLAMMING THE DOOR WILL SOMETIMES MAKE THE LIGHT GO AWAY. BUT USUALLY HAVE TO DRIVE WITH DOME LIGHT ON AND WARNING MESSAGE BEEPING AND FLASHING EVERY TIME I STOP.
DOOR AJAR WARNING SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED AND SOMETIMES IT JUST COMES ON WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, ALL THE DOORS FAILED TO REMAIN LOCKED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.
TAKATA RECALL WE BOUGHT THE 2013 FORD EDGE NEW AND WITHIN A WEEK STARTED TO HERE NOISE IN THE BRAKES , WE CALLED THE DEALER AN THEY SAID ITS PROBABLY BECAUSE THE CAR SITS GARAGE TOO MUCH. SO WE PUT MORE MILES ON THE CAR DROVE IT MORE NOW AT JUST OVER 22,000 MILES THE BRAKES STARTED GETTING REALLY NOISY AN BECAME A BUMPING SOUND YOU COULD HERE WHILE STARTING TO STEP UP THE SPEED . WE GOT SCARED TO DRIVE IT SO TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC . THEY TOOK APART THE BRAKES AND THEY PADS AND ROTORS WERE ALL SHOT AND WILL COST ME OVER $500 TO FIX . WE CALLED THE DEARLER WHO SAID THAT IT IS OUT OF WARRENTEE.

DRIVER DOOR SAYS AJAR UNABLE TO SET ALARM AND INTERIOR LIGHTS AND CHIME STAYS ON,YOU HAVE TO SLAM DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES FOR SENSOR TO GO OFF
ON Y 2013 FORD EDGE SEL AWD WITH 36,600 MILES THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR STAYS ON, EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED AND LATCHED. THIS CAUSES A NUMBER OF ISSUES: THE DOOR CHIME SOUNDS WHEN CAR STARTS IN MOTION, WHICH IS VERY ANNOYING IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC; DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED, WHICH IS A SAFETY CONCERN; INTERIOR DOME LIGHT STAYS LIT AT NIGHT WHEN FIRST STARTING IN MOTION, WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I WAS HOPING THAT THE ISSUE, WHICH OBVIOUSLY IS A MANUFACTURING/DESIGN DEFECT, WOULD BE COVERED IN A RECALL NOTICE. SO FAR IT HAS NOT AND I HESITATE TO PAY SEVERAL HUNDRED $ FOR A DEALER "FIX" THAT DOES NOT REALLY RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.I HAVE READ THAT THE COST (PARTS & LABOR) IS IN THE $400.00. OF COURSE THIS PROBLEM COMES UP JUST AS THE VEHICLE GOES OUT OF WARRANTY DUE TO MILEAGE
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON EVEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED SO THAT WHEN DRIVING ALL OF DOORS CAN'T LOCKED. INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DRIVING.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DRIVERS DOOR IS FIRMLY CLOSED. WON'T ALLOW DOORS TO LOCK WHEN DRIVING, AND AN ERROR MESSAGE COMES ON TO "SHIFT THE CAR INTO PARK"
AS SOON AS DRIVER DOOR IS CLOSED WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND CONTINUES WHILE DRIVING STATING THAT DOOR IS AJAR
DRIVER DOOR AJAR ONCE IN MOTION. SOMETIMES IT LOCKS PROPERLY BUT OTHER TIMES OPENING AND CLOSING WILL NOT FIX IT. DONT' KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. IT IS VERY UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING WITH THIS ISSUE.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHEN INSIDE FAULTY LATCH
DOOR AJAR LIGHT RANDOMLY COMES ON SAYING DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS OPEN. TAKES SEVERAL DOOR SLAMS TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OFF. SAFETY ISSUES: LIGHT STAYS ON DAY OR NIGHT. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING AND THERE ARE KIDS IN THIS CAR. CAN'T LOCK DOORS OR SET YOUR ALARM WHEN LEAVING YOUR CAR=THEFT. I DID THE RECALL JUNE 6, 2015 AND NOW IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN. BROUGHT IT TO FORD TODAY JUNE 2, 2016 AND QUOTED FIX PRICE IS $600.00. CALLED FORD AND THEY SAID THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR US.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE DOOR WAS PROPERLY CLOSED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR ALARM GOES OFF AFTER THE DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. THE ALARM BEGINS AS SOON AS THE KEY ENTERS THE IGNITION. HAVE CLOSED THE DOOR IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS (LIGHTLY, LITTLE HARDER), IT DOES NOT CORRECT THE SITUATION. ALARM ALSO GOES OFF WHILE DRIVING.
FORD EDGE LATCH DOOR AJAR DOME LIGHTS STAY ON
DOOR AJAR SENSOR REMAINS IN THE OPEN DOOR POSITION, SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM, WHEN STOPPED AT STREET LIGHTS, INSIDE LIGHTS COME ON , TELLS YOU TO PUT CAR IN PARK, ALSO SEEMS TO BE DRAINING BATTERY LIFE , REPLACED 2ND BATTERY IN A THE LAST 3 MNTHS SINCE THIS PROBLEM STARTED
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. EVERY TIME THE KEY WAS INSERTED INTO THE IGNITION, THE DOOR AJAR AND SHIFT TO PARK WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES THE DOOR WAS SLAMMED SHUT. THE DOOR CHIME SOUNDED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED EVERY DAY FOR THE PAST THREE WEEKS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHEN INSIDE FAULTY LATCH
THE SWITCH THAT CONTROLS THE CIRCUIT THAT DETECTS IF THE DRIVER DOOR IS CLOSED OR NOT IS DEFECTIVE. AN INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE ON THESE VEHICLES. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT THE DOORS WILL UNLOCK (INCLUDING THE REAR DOORS) AUTOMATICALLY WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. ALSO, DUE TO THE VEHICLE BELIEVING THE DOOR IS OPEN, IT WILL DRAIN THE BATTERY AND LEAVE THE CAR UNABLE TO START AFTER PARKING. THIS HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY, OR WHEN MOVING, AND WILL EVEN FAIL WHILE DRIVING EVEN AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR MANY TIMES TO ENSURE THE SWITCH ENDS UP IN THE RIGHT CONDITION. AT TIMES, IT TAKES 30 OR MORE OPEN CLOSE CYCLES FOR THE SWITCH TO OPERATE CORRECTLY, BUT WILL SOMETIMES "OPEN" AGAIN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.
DRIVER'S DOOR "AJAR" ALARM IS ON CONTINUOUSLY, EVEN WHEN DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED. ALARM NOTIFICATION AND CHIME COMES ON EVERY TIME CARE STARTS MOVING FORWARD. NOTIFICATION STATES TO PUT CAR IN PARK. INTERNET SEARCHES REVEAL THIS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE FORD EDGE.
DOOR AJAR ON DASH COMES ON AND STAYS ON. LIGHTS COME ON THEN. DOORS DO NOT AUTO LOCK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. GRANDCHILDREN ARE ABLE TO OPEN DOOR WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS KEEPS DOME LIGHTS ON AND SIDE MIRROR LIGHTS ALONG WITH THE DOORS NOT LOCKING WHICH IS A SECURE/SAFETY ISSUE. ALSO THE FACT THAT THE DOME LIGHT CAN BLIND THE DRIVER AT NIGHT AND THIS RUNS THE BATTERY DOWN. FORD DEALERSHIPS SAY ITS A KNOWN DEFECT FOR NEW AND USED VEHICLES AND I OPENED UP A CASE WITH FORD AND THEY REFUSE TO OFFSET THE COSTS TO FIX IT. THEY JUST SAY KEEP YOUR RECEIPT IN CASE THEY EVER DO A RECALL. THERE IS A PETITION ON LINE BECAUSE IT AFFECTS SO MANY PEOPLE. FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS TO AVOID LAWSUITS! ITS A BURDEN TO CONSUMERS BECAUSE THE COST TO FIX IS OVER $500 AT A DEALERSHIP. THIS HAPPENS WHEN STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. MY WIFE AND BABY ALMOST RAN OFF THE ROAD BECAUSE THE LIGHT WON'T GO OFF AT NIGHT AND BLINDS HER VIEW. PLUS IT HAS LEFT HER STRANDED AT WORK WITH A DEAD BATTERY. SEE LINK FOR DETAILS. HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=8RLMGEEHQ38
I HAVE TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS AND SAFETY ISSUES WITH THIS CAR. FIRST IS THE POWER BOOSTER, WHICH IS COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. SYMPTOMS OF BOOSTER ISSUE ARE SPONGY BRAKES THAT THEN WENT HARD WITH LITTLE RESISTANCE ACCOMPANIED BY HISSING SOUND COMING FROM BRAKES. THE SECOND ISSUE IS A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY. THREE TIMES IN AS MANY DAYS WHEN FOOD IS ON BRAKE, THE BRAKE PUSHES BACK ESSENTIALLY HAVING LOST POWER BRAKES AND REQUIRING BOTH FEET FIRMLY PRESSED ON BRAKE TO EVEN REMOTELY SLOW CAR DOWN, UNABLE TO COMPLETELY STOP VEHICLE, AT THE SAME TIME I LOSE POWER STEERING AND CANNOT CONTROL DIRECTION OF CAR, THE WARNING LIGHT "LOW OIL PRESSURE" ILLUMINATES ON THE DASH. THIS DOES NOT SEND CAR INTO SO CALLED "LIMP HOME" MODE IT RENDERS THE CAR ESSENTIALLY INOPERABLE. IF I TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON AGAIN IT RETURNS TO NORMAL DRIVING FUNCTION....UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN. I'VE BEEN LUCKY THAT THIS HAPPENED BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND IN STRAIGHT LANE STOP AND GO TRAFFIC ON CITY STREETS. HAD THIS HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DRIVING ALONG A CURVY MOUNTAIN ROAD, ALONG THE COAST OR ON A LOS ANGELES FREEWAY MOVING 65 MPH..I DOUBT I WOULD HAVE BEEN SO LUCKY. I CANNOT BELIEVE THE THROTTLE ISSUE IN THE EDGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY GIVEN TO OTHER FORD MODEL CARS OR EVEN MORE THAT THIS ISN'T A SWEEPING SAFETY RECALL. I AM RISKING LIFE AND LIMB OF MYSELF AND MY TWO YOUNG CHILDREN DRIVING THIS CAR. THIS IS MY FIRST FORD AND WILL PROBABLY BE MY LAST. FORD SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES.
DOOR AJAR INDICATOR STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS OBVIOUSLY CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHICH MAKES FOR UNSAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT. HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY TIME I GET IN THE CAR.
VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED BUT IT NEVER SHUT DOWN. VEHICLE STALLED BUT THE AIR CONDITIONING, RADIO, WINDOWS ETC CONTINUED TO WORK. VEHICLE'S ENGINE STAYED ON AND CONTINUED TO SPUTTER AND THE "YELLOW WRENCH" ENGINE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. THE VEHICLE WAS IN A STRAIGHT FORWARD MOTION, MOVING LESS THAN 35 MPH, IN USE FOR LESS THAN 5 MINUTES, THE WEATHER WAS HOT AND THE ROADWAY WAS DRY. THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROADWAY PARTIALLY IN THE INTERSECTION. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, APPARENTLY THERE ARE OTHERS WHO HAVE HAD A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE RESULTING IN THE REPLACEMENT OF THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY.
THE DOOR LATCH SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH FORD VEHICLES AND TO DATE HAVENT BEEN RECALLED. MY VEHICLE KEEPS SHOWING THE DOOR IS AJAR NO MATTER HOW GENTLE OR HARD I CLOSE THE DOOR. THIS CAUSES PROBLEMS LIKE THE INTERIOR LIGHT NOT SHUTTING OFF WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD DURING NIGHTTIME. THIS ALSO DRAINS THE VEHICLE BATTERY. THE DOOR WON'T LOCK WHICH IS ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE AS ANYONE CAN OPEN.
DOOR AJAR WARNING KEEPS COMING ON WHEN THE DOOR IS FULLY SHUT. WHEN IT IS SHOWING, THE CAR IS UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS AS THE CAR IS MOVING AND THE LIGHTS STAY ON MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. NOT HAVING THE DOORS LOCK IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS WE HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN THAT RIDE IN THE CAR. ALSO, IT ALLOWS OTHERS TO OPEN THE DOORS UNEXPECTEDLY. FORD SHOULD STAND UP AND FIX THE SAFETY ISSUE. BEYOND THE SAFETY ISSUE THE BATTERY IS BEING DRAINED AS THE LIGHTS STAY ON AND WE DON'T NOTICE IT UNTIL WE GO TO USE THE CAR AGAIN.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT!INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AND IT TELLS YOU TO SHIFT THE CAR TO PARK. DOES NOT MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU SHUT THE DOOR IT IS STILL SENSING IT IS OPEN. I HAVE TO SHUT THE DOOR MULITPLE TIMES AND USE THE KEY FOB UNTIL THE LIGHTS GO OFF SO THE BATTERY DOES NOT RUN DOWN. YOU CAN SHUT THE DOOR AND FINALLY GET IT TO TURN OFF, THEN START DRIVING AND IT WILL TELL YOU TO SHIFT TO PARK THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR AND THE DOME LIGHTS COME ON. THE ESTIMATE FROM THE DEALER TO REPAIR IS $500.00. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE MY DOOR WILL NOT LOCK WHILE IT IS SHOWING ITS AJAR AND I HAVE CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT THAT COULD OPEN IT, IT IS VERY DISTRACTING, FRUSTRATING AND WHEN IT HAPPENS AT NIGHT MY LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF AND YOU CAN NOT SEE CLEARLY. I HAVE SEEN SO MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS AND IS VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT FORD IS NOT CONCERNED AS WELL!!!!
DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND WARING STAY ON AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. WARNING INCLUDES PUT 'VEHICLE IN PARK' WHILE DRIVING DOWN ROAD.
DANGEROUS AND FAULTY BRAKING SYSTEM. BRAKES SOMETIMES FEEL SPONGY AND TO THE FLOOR AND OTHER TIMES HARD LIKE A BRICK WITH VERY LITTLE GIVE AND THE CAR IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STOP AND IMPOSSIBLE TO BRAKE QUICKLY. THERE IS A HISSING SOUND PRESENT WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. MOST CHALLENGING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC OR COMING OFF OF HIGH SPEEDS GOING DOWNHILL. TERRIFYING TO DRIVE ESPECIALLY WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR.
MY DOOR AJAR ALARM STAYS ON EVEN AFTER THE DOOR IS CLOSE SECURELY. GOT FIX LAST YEAR AND IT HAD AGAIN. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE I AM DRIVING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE ON ALL THE FORD VEHICLES APPARENTLY. PLEASE RECALL THIS ERROR.
DOOR AJAR, LIGHTS ON WARNING. DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED BUT DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON CAUSING INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON AND BEEPING NOISE. SAFETY HAZARD. COST IS ABOUT $400 TO FIX. GRRRR.
DRIVER AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. AN AUDIBLE WARNING REPEATS AND VISUAL WARNING TO PLACE THE CAR IN PARK. INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS SOMETIMES STAY ON IN THAT THE SENSOR INDICATES THE DOOR IS OPEN. DEALER VERIFIED SENSOR ERROR ALSO NOTED THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM FORD EDGE VEHICLES. THE ESTIMATE FROM THE DEALER TO REPAIR IS IN EXCESS OF $400.00. THIS IS A NON-WARRANTY PROBLEM THAT HAS MAJOR SAFETY CONCERNS.
DRIVER DOOR SENSOR DOES NOT REGISTER THAT DOOR IS CLOSED (SAYS DOOR IS AJAR) AND AUTOMATIC LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK AS A RESULT. TOUCH LOCK AND UNLOCK WILL NOT RESPOND UNLESS SENSOR REGISTERS THAT DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED. DOME LIGHTS REMAIN LIT BECAUSE THE VEHICLE THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. ONGOING ISSUE SINCE FEBRUARY 2016.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH AROUND A CURVE, THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.
DRIVER AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. A WARNING DINGING KEEPS SOUNDING. INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS SOMETIMES STAY ON IN THAT THE SENSOR INDICATES THE DOOR IS OPEN. DEALER VERIFIED SENSOR ERROR ALSO NOTED THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM FORD EDGE VEHICLES. THE ESTIMATE FROM THE DEALER TO REPAIR IS $444.00, VEHICLE HAS 18,000 ACTUAL MILES. THIS IS A NON-WARRANTY PROBLEM THAT HAS MAJOR SAFETY CONCERNS.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS COMING ON EVEN THOUGH I HAVE HAD THIS IN FOR SERVICE TWICE. FORD HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL, BUT THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING IN MANY VEHICLES. WHEN I TAKE IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP THEY KNOW THE CODES TO TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITHOUT LOOKING THEM UP IN THE COMPUTER. THE DEALER SAID THEY CAN ONLY CLEAN THE SENSOR AND NOT REPLACE THE LATCH BECAUSE THERE IS NOT A RECALL
GOING UP A HILL, STALLS OUT "LOW OIL PRESSURE" INDICATOR CAME ON. ALSO THE DOOR SECURITY BEEPS WHEN THE PASSENGER DOOR OPENS FIRST.
DURING ACCELERATION A STRONG EXHAUST ODOR ENTERS THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THE FORD SERVICE AT THE DEALER STATED THAT FORD HAS ISSUED A BULLETIN STATING THAT THE BODY SEAMS IN BACK NEAR THE REAR BUMPER NEED TO BE RESEALED, VENTS REPLACED AND A FUSER USED TO SEAL THE BODY. THIS SEEMS TO ME TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE - ALLOWING DANGEROUS EXHAUST FUMES TO ENTER THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. FORD REFUSES TO CORRECT THIS AT THEIR EXPENSE ALTHOUGH IT SEEMS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW THAT CREATES A SAFETY ISSUE.
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND MY BRAKES FAILED. I HAD TO HIT THE CURB TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THIS IS TRULY A SAFETY ISSUED , I WAS TOLD MY BOOSTER FOR THE BRAKES FAILED AND IT WAS TOO NEW OF A VEHICLE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND THAT IT NEEDED TO BE REPORTED AND ADDRESSED BY THE FORD COMPANY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS NO WARNING AT ALL AND THIS REPAIR WAS VERY COSTLY.

DOOR SENSOR IS NOT WORKING. THE SIGNAL COMES ON THAT SHOW DOOR AJAR WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT TIGHTLY. ALSO A DINGING NOISE STARTS AS SOON AS I PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, WITHOUT EVEN TURNING THE KEY.
EXPERIENCED 2 SEPARATE INCIDENTS OF CONSISTENT PROBLEMS WITH DOOR AJAR LIGHT BEING SIGNALED WHEN IN FACT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. FIRST INCIDENT AT 37027 MILES, SERVICED UNDER WARRANTY. SAME PROBLEM AGAIN AT 54000 MILES. SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO NEEDING TO PUT CAR IN PARK IN ORDER TO ATTEMPT ANOTHER DOOR CLOSE. MUST OFTEN SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THE LIGHT TO TURN OFF. TSB 14-0083 SUGGESTS THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR SEVERAL FORD VEHICLES.
THE DRIVER DOOR LOCK DOOR AJAR SENSOR HAS GONE BAD AND THE THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON WHICH DRAINED THE BATTERY. I HAVE BEEN READING ON THE INTERNET AND THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR FORD SINCE 2012 ON THIS VEHICLE BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED .
DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSE. INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON DUE TO DOOR AJAR SIGNAL. INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN VEHICLE. FAULTY LATCH. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON & CREATES A NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN.
MY DOOR AJAR INDICATOR WILL NOT STOP ALERTING ME THAT MY DOOR IS OPEN REGARLESS OF THE DOORS STAET CLOSED OR NOT. SO NOW WHEN DRIVING MY INTERIOR OVER HEAD LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF EVEN AT NIGHT IMPAIRING MY VISION. FORD DEALER SHIP REFUSES TO FIX THIS PROBLEM I ONLY HAVE 35000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE TAKEN IT IN FOR THIS SAME FAILURE. THE FIRST TIME THEY FIXED IT AND IT LASTED ABOUT A YEAR NOW THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT. NOT ONLY DO I HAVE TO DISCONNECT MY BATTERY AT NIGHT OR THE LIGHTS WEAR IT DOWN BUT NOW THAT MY INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AT NIGHT IT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE THE TRAFFIC AROUND ME.

I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AD THE TOLD ME TO TRY TO GET MY THIRD PARTY WARRANTY TO COVER THE REPAIRS.THIS IS ALL BULL CRAP, FORD NEEDS TO RECALL AND REPAIR EVERYONE'S PROBLEM.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON CONSTANTLY EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED, ALSO THE VEHICLE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION, THE INTERIOR COURTESY LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN WHICH MAKES NIGHT VISION IMPOSSIBLE. ALARMS GO OFF CONSTANTLY WHILE DRIVING CALLING FOR THE DRIVER TO STOP AND SHIFT INTO PARK
DOOR AJAR IS CONTINUALLY COMING ON. THE DOORS LOCKS, BUT UNLOCK IMMEDIATELY WHEN IN MOTION AND DOME LIGHT STAY ON FOR A PERIOD OF TIME THEN GOES OUT. WHEN CAR IS IN PARK CHIME AND DOOR AJAR ICON DOES NOT GO OFF UNTIL KEY IS OUT OF IGNITION. WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED THE DOME LIGHTS ALSO STAY ON FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, UNTIL LATELY WHEN INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON INDEFINITELY.
BRAKE EXTENDED WARRANTY 13N02: WARRANTY COVERS VEHICLES THROUGH BUILD DATE 3/2013 MY VEHICLE HAS BUILD DATE 7/2013 BUILT AT SAME PLANT LISTED IN WARRANTY EXTENSION 13N02. I EXPERIENCED SAME PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN 13N02.MY VEHICLE ISN'T COVERED. I'M SURE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE. ITS THE BRAKES. SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. ALL VEHICLES WITH THE BRAKE PROBLEM SHOULD BE COVERED.

I WAS AT A GAS STATION. I FORGOT TO PUT THE CAR INTO "PARK". HOWEVER, I WAS ABLE TO TAKE OUT THE KEY AND LOCK THE DOOR. I HAD MY BACK TO THE CAR WHEN I WAS PUTTING MY CREDIT CARD INTO THE PUMP. I HEARD SCREAMS AS PEOPLE RAN OUT OF THE MARKET AND YELLED THAT THE CAR WAS MOVING DOWN A HILL. AS I TURNED I SAW MY CAR CRASH INTO A PARKED TRAILER (18 WHEEL TYPE.) ALTHOUGH THERE WAS A LOT OF DAMAGE TO MY FRONT END AND I BENT THE STEEL STEP ON THE CAB NO ONE WAS HURT. MY DOG MERELY FLEW INTO THE WELL OF THE CAR. I HAVE HAD MANY FRIENDS CHECK THEIR CARS AND NO ONE WAS ABLE TO TAKE OUT THE KEY UNLESS THE CAR WAS IN PARK. HOWEVER, THESE CARS WERE NOT A FORD EDGE. SINCE THE ACCIDENT I HAVE TESTED MY CAR MANY TIMES AND I CAN ALWAYS PULL THE KEY OUT. AS YOU KNOW WHEN A CAR IS IN DRIVE IT ACTS LIKE ITS IN NEUTRAL AND CAN REACT TO INERTIA. AT THE TIME I WOULD NOT HAVE NOTICED THAT THE CAR WAS ON A SLANTED DRIVEWAY. A CHILD IN MY CAR COULD HAVE HAD A SERIOUS INJURY. SOMEONE NOT PAYING ATTENTION COULD HAVE BEEN HIT BY MY CAR. I CHECKED WITH MY DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THE FORD EDGE ABOUT MY SAFETY ISSUE. LOCAL DEALER NOT INTERESTED IN HELPING AND I CAN NOT REACH A LIVE PERSON AT THE FORD'S WORLD HEADQUARTERS. THERE IS NO PROMPT FOR A SAFETY CONCERN.. AS OF NOW I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMGES TO MY CAR AND TO THE CAB. LEFT FRONT BUMPER AND LIGHT DAMAGED.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF ON DRIVERS DOOR (FRONT LEFT) WHEN STARTING VEHICLE. WHEN TURNING OFF VEHICLE DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF BOTH INSTANTS I HAVE TO CONTINUE TO OPEN AND CLOSE DOOR AND PLAY WITH THE LOCK UNTIL THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT OR DOME LIGHTS GOES OFF. I HAVE READ THAT THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM THAT FORD DOES NOT RECOGNIZE.
THE PASSENGER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON ALONG WITH DOME LIGHT WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. CAUSED MY BATTERY TO DIE.
FORD EDGE 2013 ERROR CODE "DOOR AJAR" WOULD RANDOMLY COME ON WHILE PARKED OR DRIVING WHEN THE DOOR WAS ACTUALLY CLOSED. DOOR WOULD HAVE TO BE REPEATEDLY CLOSED IN ORDER TO MAKE THE "DOOR AJAR" ERROR GO AWAY. "DOOR AJAR" ERROR WOULD COME BACK EVEN IF THE DOOR WAS CLOSED SUCCESSFULLY WITHOUT THE ERROR BEFORE. WHILE DRIVING, "DOOR AJAR" WARNING WOULD SOUND OFF TRIGGERING DASHBOARD LIGHTS WHICH WOULD STARTLE THE DRIVER AND CAUSE A SAFETY HAZARD. WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED, "DOOR AJAR" ERROR WOULD PREVENT LIGHTS IN THE VEHICLE FROM TURNING OFF. "DOOR AJAR" ERROR WOULD PREVENT THE DOORS FROM BEING LOCKED VIA REMOTE OR LOCK BUTTON IN THE CAR.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OFF, EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR SEEMED TO BE CLOSED. THUS DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK AND OCCASIONALLY WARNING LIGHTS WOULD FLASH, DISTRACTING ME AS I DROVE. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A FAULTY FRONT DOOR LATCH, WHICH THEY REPLACED FOR $425.65. SEE #2 ON THE ATTACHED.

IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR THE CONTACT TO LOCK THE DOORS WHILE THE LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE RESULTS WERE UNKNOWN. THE MECHANIC SPRAYED COMPRESSED AIR IN BETWEEN THE DOOR CONTACTS, WHICH REMEDIED THE ISSUE TEMPORARILY. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.
THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR REMAINS LIT EVEN WHEN DOOR IS PROPERLY SECURED. THIS RESULTS IN THE INTERIOR LIGHTING REMAINING ON AND FAILURE OF THE DOOR LOCKS TO PROPERLY ACTIVATE, EVEN AT HIGHWAY SPEED. I AM A FORMER INVESTIGATOR FOR THE U.S. DOT AND I FIND THIS TO BE A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHICH SHOULD BE RECALLED. IF THE DOORS ARE NOT PROPERLY LOCKED THERE IS AN INCREASED RISK TO OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS CLEARLY CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHT REMAINS ON THE ENTIRE TIME.
THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR DOESN'T SEEM TO BE WORKING. THE DOOR IS CLOSED BUT IS SAYS IT'S NOT. I CAN NOT LOCK THE DOORS AND MY OVERHEAD LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE BATTERY WILL DIE.

CAR DOOR SENSOR ON DRIVER'S SIDE NO LONGER REGISTERING THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. LIGHTS REMAIN ON, WARNING MESSAGE CONSTANTLY FLASHES, AND MESSAGE TO SHIFT TO PARK WITH WARNING CHIME GOES OFF EVERY TIME I STOP THE VEHICLE, AND THE CAR DOES WILL NOT LOCK.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR WILL NOT SHUT OFF. THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT STAYS ON UNTIL APPROX MOVING 5MPH. A FEW TIMES THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON WHEN STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED, AS THE SYSTEM THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN. AFTER STOPPING AND EXITING THE VEHICLE, YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOOR USING THE KEY LESS ENTRY KEYPAD. THE ONLY WAY TO LOCK THE DOORS IS TO USE THE KEY FOB. THIS WAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, NOW THE WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATER STAYS ON AFTER DOOR HAS BEEN CLOSED. OVERHEAD LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN DOOR AJAR INDICATED IS ENGAGED WHICH IS A DRIVING HAZARD AT NIGHT. THIS ISSUE OCCURS BOTH WHEN IDLE AND WHILE DRIVING.

AT THE END OF FEBRUARY MY "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT KEPT STAYING ON AFTER CLOSING IT- I HAD TO REPEATEDLY CLOSE IT TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OFF. ON MARCH 5TH MY VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE TRAVELING DOWN A MAIN HIGHWAY AT NIGHT WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO COME HELP US. I AM JUST THANKFUL I WASN'T ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I CALLED FORD ON MARCH 7TH TO QUESTION IT AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT IN. I LEARNED ON MARCH 15TH THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LATCH HAD GONE BAD AND SINCE IT STAYED ON IT KILLED MY BATTERY ALONG WITH MY THROTTLE BODY HAD GONE BAD IN MY CAR AS WELL. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND SEVERAL OTHER FORDS MODELS THAT HAD THESE SAME ISSUES WITH RECALLS OR CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAMS BUT MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE AND PARTS WEREN'T COVERED. I HAVE IN TURNED BEEN WAITING NOW 5 WEEKS FOR THE THROTTLE BODY PART FOR MY CAR, WHICH HAS LEFT ME HAVING TO BORROW A WAY TO GO BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX MY CAR AND PAY FOR A RENTAL. FORD STILL WILL NOT TELL ME WHY THE PART IS BACKORDERED. I DON'T SEE WHY ITS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY FOR THESE REPAIRS WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER FORDS IN THIS YEAR RANGE WITH THESE SAME ISSUES THAT ARE BEING COVERED. I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD TAKE 5 WEEKS TO COME UP WITH A PART AND NOW THE ANTICIPATED SHIP DATE HAS BEEN MOVED FROM APRIL 8TH TO APRIL 28TH. THIS IS UNCALLED FOR. MY CAR IS MY ONLY WAY TO GO AND TOO NEW TO BE HAVING THESE TYPES OF ISSUES. MY ONLY ASSUMPTION IS THERE ARE AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FORD VEHICLES WITH THESE SAME ISSUES AND FORD SHOULD BE COVERING THEM FOR FAULTY PARTS.
MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR ALARM IS CONSTANTLY ACTIVATED, EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT TIGHTLY. BECAUSE THE DOOR AJAR IS ALWAYS ACTIVATED MY CAR ALARM HAS STARTED GOING OFF RANDOMLY, SO NOW I CAN NO LONGER LOCK MY CAR WITHOUT FEAR THAT THE ALARM WILL BE SET OFF WHILE I'M AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE. WHILE DRIVING THE SENSOR FOR THE DOOR AJAR KEEPS DINGING, WHICH IS VERY DISTRACTING AND CAUSES CONFUSION. IT ALSO REFUSES TO GO OFF NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I TRY CLOSING THE DOOR, SO THERE IS NO WAY SO STOP THE DINGING OR ALARMS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION.
THE R/L DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON. UPON INVESTIGATION I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A CHRONIC DESIGN PROBLEM WITH MANY FORD VEHICLES.
MY DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND WILL NOT LOCK THE DOORS EVEN THOUGH IT IS CLEARLY SHUT COMPLETELY. THIS ALLOWS THE DOME LIGHT TO REMAIN ON ALSO. AFTER SEVERAL TIMES OF OPENING AND SHUTTING IT FINALLY REGISTERS THAT IT IS CLOSED. HAD MY MECHANIC LOOK AT IT HE CLEANED IT AND LUBED IT WHICH CLEARED IT FOR A DAY BUT IS DOING IT AGAIN. LOOKS LIKE IT NEEDS A WHOLE NEW DOOR LATCH. I HAVE FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE BUT NO RECALL FROM FORD. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR APPROX. 1 MONTH BUT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE.
VEHICLE CONTINUES TO ALARM DRIVERS DOOR AJAR EVEN THOUGH IT IS SHUT, I AM TOLD IT IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR, BECAUSE OF THIS THE VEHICLE DOES NOT SENSE THAT THE DOOR IS SHUT, IT CONTINUES TO DING AND FLASH BETWEEN "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" AND "SHIFT TO PARK" BECAUSE OF THIS, NONE OF THE DOORS LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON (VERY TROUBLESOME AT NIGHT)
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND SOUNDS WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION. DOME LIGHTS COME ON AND WON'T GO OFF.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND IN MOTION, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS PROPERLY CLOSED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V246000(LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000. ..UPDATED 05/19/16 *BF UPDATED 11/29/2017*JS
DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND DINGS WHEN THE DOOR IS CLEARLY CLOSED. AFTER OPENING AND CLOSING SEVERAL TIMES IT WILL SOMETIMES GO OUT BUT AND SOON AS I SLOW TO STOP IT COMES BACK ON. SOMETIMES THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON TOO.
VEHICLE WAS ENROUTE ON NORTHBOUND I-95 IN LORTON ON A SATURDAY WHEN WE HEARD A LOUD BANG. I PULLED OVER AND LOOKED AROUND AND UNDER THE BACK OF THE CAR. SEEING NOTHING I GOT BACK UNDERWAY. AFTER A FEW MINUTES I STARTING HEARING WIND NOISES. AFTER ANOTHER FEW MINUTES THE HEADLINER STARTING TO SAG. TURNS OUT THE SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED IN THE FRONT AND BACK. THE CENTER WAS STILL INTACT BUT CRACKING MORE AND MORE. TAKING IT INTO SERVICE ON MONDAY.
THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN DEC. 2013 AND AS OF TODAY HAS 54,500 MILES ON IT. AS OF TODAY IT HAS NOW GONE THROUGH 2 HEADLIGHT BULBS, ONE FOR EACH SIDE. THE FIRST WAS JAN. 2016 AND THE SECOND YESTERDAY. I BELIEVE THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE WAY THE HEADLIGHT HIGH/LOW BEAM SYSTEM IS MADE IN THE EDGE. A SINGLE BULB IS USED FOR BOTH HIGH AND LOW BEAM. WHEN THE DRIVER SWITCHES TO HIGH BEAM THE ENTIRE BULB SOCKED OR LIGHT HOUSING IS COMMANDED UP. THIS IS NOTICEABLE INSIDE THE VEHICLE WITH A LOUD BUMP FROM THE HEADLIGHT AREA. I BELIEVE THE FORCE OF THIS MOVEMENT CONTRIBUTES TO THE SHORTENED LIFE OF THE BULBS. IF DRIVING AT NIGHT IT'S POSSIBLE BOTH BULBS COULD BE BROKEN WHEN SWITCHING FROM LOW TO HIGH BEAM. SHOULD THIS OCCUR AT NIGHT IT COULD LEAD TO A VEHICLE CRASH DUE TO LOSS OF VISIBILITY, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN INJURY OR DEATH.
LEFT REAR DOOR AND REAR HATCH DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THEY ARE CLOSED
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON & ALSO SHIFT TO PARK. WHILE IM DRIVING
DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DRIVING (VERY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT). FAULTY LATCH SENSOR COULD AFFECT PASSENGERS.
WHEN CLOSING MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON AND THE CHIME GOES OFF, AND THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON, EVEN AFTER SLAMMING THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOOK THE DOOR PANEL OFF AND "PERFORMED A HIGH CURRENT CLEANING OF DOOR AJAR CONNECTIONS" AT A COST OF $154.00 + TAX FOR ME.
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.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND DINGS AT EVERY STOP SAYS DOOR IS OPEN AND ITS CLEARLY SHUT WILL NOT LOCK DO TO PROBLEM, ALSO POWER BOOSTER ON BRAKES ARE BAD AND ONLY FOUND OUT WHEN TRIEN TO STOP AND SCARES ME WHILE APPROACHING LIGHTS AND STOPS HARD TO PRESS. ONLY HAD A FEW MONTHS AND ITS NOT LOOKING GOOD
DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS PREVENTS THE INTERIOR LIGHT FROM GOING OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT DUE TO IT CAUSING VISIBILITY ISSUES TO HAVE THE LIGHT ON. IT ALSO PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM AUTOMATICALLY LOCKING WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS A BIG SAFETY CONCERN. ANYONE COULD OPEN MY CAR DOORS WHILE STOPPED AT A SIGNAL LIGHT OR PARKED IN PARKING LOT. IF YOU TRY TO MANUALLY LOCK THE DOOR IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK AGAIN. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PART IMMEDIATELY. THIS ISSUE IS AFFECTING MANY FORD OWNERS WITH VARIOUS MODELS SPANNING 2007-2014 AND IT HAPPENS AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRES. MY PROBLEM STARTED AT 39,0000 MILES AND THE WARRANT EXPIRED AT 36,000 MILES.
WHEN TURNING INTO A DRIVE WAY AT LOW SPEEDS THE POWER STEERING GAVE OUT AND THE BREAKS AND GAS PEDAL WERE NOT RESPONDING AND THE LOW OIL PRESSURE TO ENGINE MESSAGE CAME ON THE DASH. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND GAVE IT A FEW MINUTES, AND WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON AND HAD IT TOWED TO A DEALER THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY CODE NOR COULD THEY REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AFTER HAVING FOR 3 DAYS. I AM WORRIED IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN AND AT HIGHER SPEEDS LIKE WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE RESEARCHED THAT FORD HAD SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE THROTTLE BODY ON OTHER MODELS AND YEARS BUT NOT THE 2013 EDGE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.
THE DOOR LATCH ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS NOT LATCHING PROPERLY. THE INDICATOR LIGHT SHOWING THE DOOR OPEN APPEARS AND THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT REMAINS ON. IT WILL SHOW THIS WARNING RANDOMLY, AS WELL AS ANYTIME THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS OPENED AND SHUT.
MANY MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE IM HAVING, THE FRONT DRIVERS DOOR CENSOR GOES BAD. MY VEHICLE WONT LOCK BECAUSE ITS READING DRIVERS DOOR AJAR. ITS A SAFETY HAZARD AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.
'DRIVERS DOOR AGAR' WARNING LIGHT DOES NOT TURN OFF.
THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR GIVES OFF THE WARNING THAT IT IS OPEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. CHECKING ONLINE IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS THE DOOR AJAR SWITCH WHICH HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH FORDS AND I BELIEVE THEY NEED TO RECALL THIS ISSUE
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.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND WARNING TONES REMAIN ON WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON. DOORS CAN NOT BE LOCKED PROPERLY...
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON. FORD SAID NO RECALL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. AFTER SHUTTING THE VEHICLE'S DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE CONTACT OPENED THE DOOR AND SHUT IT, BUT THE WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING SIGN AND THE DOOR WOULD NOT LOCK WHETHER STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. IT POSES A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT PREVENTS YOU FROM LOCKING THE DOORS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM LAST YEAR AND I HAD IT FIXED AT A LOCAL FORD SERVICE CENTER BUT THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING AGAIN. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS PART MALFUNCTION AS IT PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD.
THE DRIVER DOOR IS CLOSED, BUT AJAR STAY ON!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD THE VEHICLE RUN OVER SOMETHING THAT LEFT DEBRIS IN THE ROADWAY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED PREVIOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE SHIELD COVER DISLODGED FROM THE VEHICLE AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNKNOWN.
AFTER CLOSING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON. THE DOORS USED TO AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AS YOU PUT IT IN REVERSE/DRIVE IF ALL OF THE DOORS ARE CLOSED PROPERLY, BUT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR TELLS THE CAR DOOR IS AJAR. THIS NOT ONLY ANNOYING TO SEE THE POP UP, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHICH IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE. FORD HAS RECEIVED MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE BUT IS REFUSING TO DO A RECALL.
WHILE DRIVING I LOST ALL ACCELERATION. THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING BUT MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. I WENT FROM 50MPH TO NOTHING WHILE GOING UP AN OVERPASS. THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH MY FORD FUSION AND IT WAS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. IN BOTH CASES THE ONLY THING THAT KEPT ME FROM CAUSING OR BEING INVOLVED IN VERY BAD ACCIDENTS WAS THE GRACE OF GOD! I JUST CALLED FORD AND THEY HAD NO THROTTLE BODIES IN STOCK BECAUSE FORD HAD PLACED A HOLD ON ORDERING THEM! NOW ISN'T THAT INTERESTING!! I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD PROMISED 2,000 TO BE SHIPPED OUT THIS WEEK. THAT SEEMS OBVIOUS TO ME THAT FORD KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN LOOKED AT FOR YEARS....WHY ISN'T SOMEONE DOING MORE THAN SLAPPING FORD'S HAND?
TAKATA RECALL: DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR INDICATOR STAYS ON WHICH CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHT TO STAY ON. AT NIGHT IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE WILL BACKING UP THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND HAS CAUSE ME TO BACK INTO TRASH CAN. I'M VERY FORTUNATE IT WASN'T A PERSON OR VEHICLE. MY DOORS WILL NOT LOCK THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO THE FACT I TRANSPORT DOWN SOME HIGH CRIME AREAS. ALSO MY GAS CAP SEAL DOESN'T SEAL PROPERLY WHEN I GET GAS MY CAR IS HARD TO START.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE PARKED, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR SENSOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND CHIMED IN THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE PREVENTED THE DOORS FROM LOCKING MANUALLY AND ELECTRONICALLY. THE FAILURE PREVIOUSLY OCCURRED ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR TOO. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000. UPDATED 05/10/16*LJ *TR
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.
DOOR AJAR COMES ON WHILE THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND YOU HAVE THE OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR MORE THAN 50 TIMES FOR IT TO GO OFF ......FORD NEEDS TO REDESIGN OR REPLACE SENSORS/ DOOR LOCK MECH. ESPECIALLY NOT EVEN BEING 2,000 MILES AFTER REPLACEMENT AND FROM WHAT I'VE READ ONLINE WITH OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS AND OTHER FORD VECHICAL OWNERS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM
DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR CLAIMS THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. THE LIGHTS INSIDE THE VEHICLE STAY ON AND THE DASH WILL SAY DRIVER DOOR AJAR. IF YOU SHIFT TO DRIVE, THEN THE CAR WILL DING AND ASK YOU TO SHIFT TO PARK.
THE DOOR AJAR WARNING MESSAGE (ALWAYS INDICATING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR) COMES ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. I HAVE TO SHUT THE DOOR HARD SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THE WARNING MESSAGE OR DOOR AJAR REMOVED. NOW THERE HAVE BEEN INSTANCES WHEN I AM DRIVING AND THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING APPEARS. THE WARNING MESSAGES ALSO SAY SHIFT TO PARK WHEN THE DOOR AJAR WARNING MESSAGE APPEARS.
THE FRONT DRIVER DOOR SENSOR WILL NOT GO OFF NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU OPEN AND RE-CLOSE THE DOOR. THIS CAUSES THE FOLLOWING TO OCCUR: 1) WHEN DRIVING THE CAR, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE FOR THOSE WITH CHILDREN 2) WHEN LEAVING THE CAR, THE DOOR IS NOT RECOGNIZED AS CLOSED SO THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT AND SIDE-VIEW MIRROR LIGHTS ALL REMAIN ON. THIS DRAINS THE BATTERY WHILE THE CAR SITS IDLE.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON AFTER DOOR IS SHUT. THE DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON. SHIFT TO PARK WARNING COMES ON. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AS WELL. THE ALARM WILL NOT ACTIVATE. I HAVE TO TRY SEVERAL TIMES TO CLOSE THE DOOR ON ORDER FOR IT TO GO OFF.
AFTER CLOSING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, A WARNING IMAGE POPS UP ON THE SPEEDOMITOR DISPLAY. THE DOORS USED TO AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AS YOU PUT IT IN REVERSE/DRIVE IF ALL OF THE DOORS ARE CLOSED PROPERLY, BUT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR TELLS THE CAR DOOR IS AJAR. THIS NOT ONLY ANNOYING TO SEE THE POP UP, INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND SLAMMING THE DOOR CONTINUOSLY, BUT ITS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ALL OF THE PASSANGERS. FORD HAS GOTTIN' MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND PHYSICAL DEALERSHIPS.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AFTER SHUTTING THE DRIVERS DOOR, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON, WHEN YOU STOP IT TELLS YOU TO PUT IN PARK. IT CAN HAPPEN ANY TIME, AND STOP AT ANY TIME. SOMETIMES YOU CAN SHUT THE DRIVERS DOOR A LITTLE HARDER AND IT WILL GO OUT. SOMETIMES, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.
MY FORD EDGE 2013 IS NOT TURNING OFF THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS WHEN I CLOSE THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND WHEN DRIVING I GET A WARNING STATING THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR.SOMETIMES AFTER SLAMMING THE DRIVER DOOR TWO TO THREE TIMES IT GOES AWAY.IT HAS BECOME QUIET ANNOYING AND DANGEROUS WHEN I DRIVE SINCE IT BECOMES A CONSTANT DISTRACTION.I HAVE GONE TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATE THAT EITHER THE SENSOR OR THE LATCH HAVE BECOME FAULTY..REALLY?...I THINK ITS ABOUT TIME FOR FORD TO DO A RECALL AND CORRECT THIS ISSUE SINCE I HAVE TALKED TO OTHER FORD OWNERS WITH THE SAME EXACT ISSUE IN THERE OFFICES.
MY DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON, THE DOME LIGHTS STAY LIT. I HAVE TO KEEP CLOSING THE DOOR UNTIL THE LIGHTS GO OFF WHEN I LOCK IT. THE CAR WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING WHEN THIS WARNING LIGHT COMES ON.
PROBLEM WITH DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR ACTIVATING WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. WAS REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY, THEN PROBLEM RECURRED ABOUT 10 MONTHS LATER AFTER VEHICLE WARRANTY LAPSED. FORD WILL NOT COVER REPAIRS NOW. AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT FUNCTION WITH THIS SENSOR PROBLEM. INTERIOR LIGHTS ALSO STAY ON WHICH REDUCES VISIBILITY.
THE DRIVERS DOOR IS SHOWING OPEN ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL EVEN WHEN CLOSED. THERE IS ALSO AND AUDIBLE ALARM WARNING THAT THE DOOR IS NOT CLOSED. THE DOOR LOCK FEATURE WILL NOT ENGAGE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I AM UNSURE IF THE DOOR IS SAFELY LATCHED AT ALL
MY DRIVERS DOOR IS CLOSED COMPLETLY AND MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON, MY INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE ON, THEN WILL TELL ME TO SHIFT TO PARK WHEN STOPPING, ANNOYING,DRIVING AT NIGHT IS DANGEROUS, LIGHT ON , RED LIGHT ON DASH DISTRACTING THE DRIVER, MY CAR HAS ONLY 58,000 MILES ON IT! CALLED 2 FORD DEALERSHIPS , BOTH ADVISED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS?? WELL WHY HASN'T THE FORD COMPANY DID A RECALL AND FIX IT!! FORD PRIDES THEMSELVES ON BEING "FORD TOUGH" WE'LL STAND BEHIND YOUR VEHICLES!!
DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON AS IF DOOR IS OPEN. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CAR WILL NOT LOCK PROPERLY. WHETHER I AM IN MOTION PARKED OR JUST IDLE THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON AND I HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR 2-10 TIME EVERY TIME. ALSO, MY BACK UP CAMERA IS FUNCTIONAL BUT THE PICTURE WON'T COME UP ON THE SCREEN.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AFTER SHUTTING THE DRIVERS DOOR, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON, WHEN YOU STOP IT TELLS YOU TO PUT IN PARK. IT CAN HAPPEN ANY TIME, AND STOP AT ANY TIME. SOMETIMES YOU CAN SHUT THE DRIVERS DOOR A LITTLE HARDER AND IT WILL GO OUT. SOMETIMES, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.
THE DOOR OPEN SENSOR COMES ON WHEN I AM DRIVING WHEN THE DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED AND THEN THE INTERIOR LIGHT COMES ON, IT WILL ALSO COME ON WHEN I AM PARKED WHEN IT IS CLOSED. I HAD IT REPLACED WITHIN THE LAST YEAR AND IT IS DOING EXACTLY THE SAME THING AGAIN. ALSO WHEN MY EDGE IS PARKED IN THE GARAGE OVERNIGHT IT WILL SMELL LIKE FUEL IN THE MORNINGS. IT SMELLS LIKE THERE IS A LEAK.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALARM COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF WHICH CAN BE A DRIVING HAZARD AND WILL ALSO DRAIN THE BATTERY. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. THIS PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED AT ABOUT 47,000 MILES AND I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER IN JUNE 2015. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, SO I HAD TO PAY $107 DEDUCTIBLE FOR THEM TO CLEAN THE SWITCH. THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED AGAIN IN MARCH 2016.
WHEN STARTING CAR I GET MESSAGE: DRIVERS DOOR AJAR-THE DOOR IS SECURELY LATCHED, OVERHEAD LIGHTS COME ON AND STAY ON
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE PARKED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT FOR THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS PROPERLY CLOSED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000.
THE PASSENGER SIDE INSIDE BRAKE PAD WAS WORN DOWN TO THE METAL. THE OUTSIDE OF THE PASSENGER BRAKE PAD AND THE DRIVER SIDE BRAKE PADS WERE ALMOST LIKE NEW. I'VE PAID OVER $300 IN PARTS AND LABOR TO HAVE ROTORS AND PADS REPLACED. THIS INCIDENT WILL MOST LIKELY HAPPEN AGAIN. THE VEHICLE IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHERS WHO HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT I'M NOT SURE HOW MUCH OF A SAFETY ISSUE IT IS. HOPEFULLY NOTHING HAPPENS DURING OUR DAILY COMMUTE.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT GOES ON. HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE SAME THING STILL NOT FIXED. THIS WEEKEND SOON AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR I DO NOT REMEMBER THE DATE THEY WILL HAVE IT AT THE MECHANIC I'M SURE OR SOMEWHERE IN MY FILE FOLDERS
WHEN STARTING CAR I GET MESSAGE: DRIVERS DOOR AJAR-THE DOOR IS SECURELY LATCHED, OVERHEAD LIGHTS COME ON AND STAY ON, LOCKS WILL NOT ENGAGE WHEN MESSAGE IS ON. WARNING STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING. MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE WITH OWNERS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR SWITCH STICKS AND THE VEHICLE COMPUTER THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR REMAINS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. WHEN DRIVING, FRONT INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK FROM INSIDE.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR SECURELY. DOORS WON'T AUTO LOCK AFTER MOVEMENT OF CAR. DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AND JEOPARDIZE BATTERY LIFE.
"TAKATA RECALL" I WENT TO THE DEALER UNDER WARRANTY TO HAVE THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR FIXED AND REQUESTED A NEW DOOR LATCH AND WAS TOLD FORD SENT A TOOL TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHICH LASTED 8 MONTHS UNFORTUNATELY OUT OF BUMPER TO BUMPER. CALLED LOVELAND FORD AND WAS TOLD FORD IS BEING FINICKY ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND I NEED TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET PER THE CORPORATION REALLY!!!!!!! THE CAR DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND THE COMPUTER MODULE TELLS ME TO PUT IN PARK AND THE DOOR AJAR WILL NOT GO OUT. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND WHEN I START THE CAR. I SLAM THE DOOR 5-10 TIMES I AM NOT GOING TO PAY THEM FOR A CAR THAT WAS OVER 30K FOR A PROBLEM THEY COVERED UP? SHAME ON YOU FORD!,,,,,,,,,,
DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR WARNING KEEPS COMING ON. IT WOULD GO AWAY AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS, OR SOME CLEANER SPRAYED INTO THE LOCKING MECHANISM AREA. BUT NOW, IT'S WARNING AT ALL TIMES. DOME LIGHTS STAY ON, WARNING CHIMES WHEN THE CAR ISN'T MOVING QUICKLY, AND CAR DOORS WON'T LOCK B/C IT THINKS THE DOOR IS AJAR. I THINK THAT AND HAVING LIGHTS ON WHEN YOU'RE REVERSING AT NIGHT ARE THE TWO BIGGEST SAFETY ISSUES. THE OTHER ISSUES ARE JUST ANNOYING AND LIKELY WEARING OUT BATTERY POWER WITH THE LIGHTS STAYING ON. I'VE READ THAT SOME OTHER FORD AND LINCOLN MODELS HAVE HAD RECALLS ON THIS LOCKING MECHANISM SO HOPING THAT THE EDGE GETS THE SAME TREATMENT. SEEMS LIKE A SILLY ISSUE FOR A 2013 CAR WITH 37K MILES ON IT.
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON AT ALL TIMES WHEN THE DOOR IS DOOR IS SHUT. THE DOME LIGHTS ARE ON WHEN DRIVING AND FREQUENT FLASHING LIGHTS ON THE DASH WARN THAT THE DRIVERS DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS NOT. THIS IS A HAZARD WHEN DRIVING AND VERY DISTRACTING. THIS STARTED HERE AND THERE ON 2/29 AND IS CONSTANT SINCE 3/7. THE MILEAGE OF THE CAR IS AROUND 65,000
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. AFTER CLOSING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED, WHICH INDICATED THAT THE DOOR WAS STILL OPEN. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT TO REMAIN ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,690.
ON OR ABOUT DECEMBER 2015, THE DRIVERS' SIDE DOOR WILL BE FIRMLY CLOSED AND THE 'DOOR AJAR' ALARM WILL CONTINUALLY SOUND WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED. THE DOOR AJAR ALARM WILL REPEATEDLY SOUND DESPITE REPEATED OPENING AND CLOSING OF THE DOOR. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION FOR ABOUT 100 FEET, THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT FUNCTION (STAY UNLOCKED), AND THE DOOR AJAR ALARM WILL CONTINUALLY SOUND WHEN THE VEHICLE COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP OR SLOWS DOWN TO LESS THAN 5 MILES PER HOUR. THIS HAPPENS APPROXIMATELY 9 TIMES OUT OF 10 THAT THE VEHICLE IS TURNED ON AND DRIVEN. THIS OCCURS WHEN IN MOTION, STATIONARY, ON OUR DRIVEWAY, ON THE CITY STREETS OR OTHER ROADWAYS, ETC.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THERE WAS A LOSS OF ENGINE POWER FOR A FEW SECONDS AND THE VEHICLE RESUMED AS NORMAL. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.
THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR STOPPED WORKING (MAKING THE CAR THINK THE DOOR WAS OPEN WHEN IT WAS IN FACT CLOSED). THIS PREVENTS THE CAR FROM LOCKING WHILE DRIVING (A SAFETY ISSUE) AND ALSO CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON WHILE DRIVING (A FURTHER SAFETY ISSUE). IT ALSO CAUSES THE DRIVER DISPLAY TO BEEP AND MAKE DISTRACTING POPUP MENUS WHILE DRIVING, WHICH CAN DISTRACT THE DRIVER. I PREVIOUSLY HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT IT HAS RE-OCCURRED ON THE SAME DOOR. THEN I GOOGLED IT AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH LOTS OF FORD DOOR SENSORS DATING BACK SEVERAL YEARS.
DOOR ADJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT TIGHT AND MOST OF THE TIME THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON, WHICH IS VERY AGGRAVATING IF DRIVING AT NIGHT,.
DOOR AJAR ISSUE, DOOR IS CLOSED AND IT CONTINUALLY POPS UP WHICH MAKE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON MAKING IT DANGEROUS AT NIGHT. I'VE HAD THIS ISSUE "FIXED" ONCE BY THE DEALERSHIP LESS THAN A AGO AND IT HAS POPPED UP AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS WHILE I THE CAR IS STOPPED AND IN MOTION, REGARDLESS TO WHERE I AM AT.
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON CONSTANTLY. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND THIS ENDANGERS THE SAFETY OF THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE. THE WARNING BELL RINGS WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. ALSO, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHICH IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR NIGHT DRIVING.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT OFTEN STAYS ON OR SUDDENLY COMES ON WITH THE DOOR CLOSED. WHEN IT HAPPENS, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK (OR WILL UNLOCK) AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT COMES ON. THIS MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE WHEN IT HAPPENS AT NIGHT AND NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BACK UP AT NIGHT. IT WILL SOMETIME HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS JUST SITTING IN THE GARAGE WITHOUT THE ENGINE RUNNING AND NO PASSENGERS IN IT. I BELIEVE THIS IS DANGEROUS FOR MANY REASONS. AGAIN, IT HAS HAPPENED SITTING, WHEN FIRST STARTED AND WHEN I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I WILL PUT IN A DATE BELOW BUT IT HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS.
WHEN I SHUT DRIVER DOOR WITH ENGINE ON THE DOOR ADJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. TURN CAR OFF AND EXIT AND SHUT DRIVERS DOOR INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND EVENTUALLY RUN BATTERY DOWN.DEALER SAYS THE CONTACTS IN DOOR LATCH SWITCH NEED TO BE CLEANED. FIX LASTS ONLY ABOUT 2 WEEKS. BROUGHT BACK UNDER WARRANTY 3 TIMES. DEALER WILL NOT REPLACE PART ONLY CLEAN. MY WARRANTY RUNS OUT IN ONE MONTH.
DOOR AJAR IS CONSTANTLY ON AND IF IT GOES OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF ME DRIVING THE DOOR AJAR WILL GO OFF WITH INTERIOR LIGHTS ON. THIS PROBLEM IS HAPPENING ALL THE TIME
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH HAD TO BE CHANGED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,927. UPDATED 04/06/16*LJ CONSUMER STATED THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED ALMOST EXACTLY 1 YEAR APART. DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH THE DOME LIGHTS ON ABOVE THE EYES, PLUS WARNING LIGHTS AND WARNING SOUND GOING OFF. AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED THEY CHANGED THE LATCH ( CHECKED ONLINE) LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING SAME ISSUE. CONSUMER CALLED FORD MOTOR CO. BUT NO HELP! UPDATED 6/7/18*JB
I AM THE OWNER OF A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN LIT AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. SOMETIMES IT WILL GO OFF AFTER REPEATEDLY SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT BUT NOT ALWAYS. I FEEL THIS IS A DANGER BECAUSE OF DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH THE LIGHT ON. I ALSO HAVE CHILDREN IN THE CAR THAT COULD POSSIBLY OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE CAR IS GOING.
I JUST PURCHASED MY FORD EDGE 2 WEEKS AGO AND THE REAR LEFT DOOR AJAR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT OPEN. I HAVE STOPPED THE CAR, OPEN AND CLOSED THE DOOR BUT THE LIGHT WILL STILL STAY ON. WHEN WE LOCK THE DOORS AT NIGHT, THE ALARM WILL GO OFF SEVERAL TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. WORRIED IF THE DOORS ARE EVEN LOCKING AT THIS POINT. I CALLED A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS JUST A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN AND NOT A RECALL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. AFTER CLOSING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE INDICATED THAT THE DOOR WAS STILL OPEN AND CAUSED THE DOME LIGHT TO REMAIN ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OFTHE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILIABLE.
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, IN DIFFERENT DRIVING CONDITIONS, AND AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS, THE CAR LOST COMPLETE ENGINE POWER. IT TOTALLY SHUT OFF. THE YELLOW AWD OFF AND WRENCH INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL ENGINE POWER IS TOTALLY LOST. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS WHEN IT OCURRS IN TRAFFIC AND AT HIGH SPEED ON A FREEWAY. AFTER TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND COMPLETELY RESARTING THE CAR, EVERYTHING WORKS FINE AGAIN UNTIL SOME RANDOM MOMENT WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN WITH TOTAL POWER LOSS. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALER THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED AND THEY RAN DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY SUGGESTED THAT MAYBE IT WAS SOME BAD GASOLINE. WE REQUESTED THEM TO DRAIN THE TANK COMPLETELY. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER, AFTER EXPERIENCING NO PROBLEMS, THE SAME PROBLEMS BEGAN TO OCURR MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET I BECAME AWARE OF OTHER FORD DRIVERS THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING ISSUE AND IT SEEMED TO ME THAT THE COMMON PROBELM WAS THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. I DECIDED TO GO AHEAD AND PAY TO HAVE THAT COMPLETELY REPLACED. IT'S ONLY BEEN A WEEK SINCE I REPLACED THAT PART, SO FAR, NO PROBLEMS, BUT IT'S TOO EARLY TO SAY FOR SURE IF IT IS RESOLVED. I BELIEVE THAT FORD SHOULD HAVE NOTIFIED DRIVERS OF THIS ISSUE AND RECALLED THE VEHICLES AND REPLACED THE PART FREE OF CHARGE, BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED.
AFTER ABOUT 40,000 MILES, MY CAR STARTED ALERTING ME THAT MY DRIVERS DOOR WAS AJAR WHEN CLEARLY IT WAS CLOSED. I CLOSED IT AGAIN AND AGAIN, BUT THE ALERT STILL WON'T GO OFF. THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK AFTER MOVING FORWARD DOWN THE ROAD. THIS CAN BE A REAL SAFETY ISSUE! I'M AFRAID SOMEONE MIGHT CARJACK ME WITH MY DOORS NOT LOCKING! ALSO, AS I STOP AT STOP SIGNS OR STOP LIGHTS, IT CONTINUALLY ALERTS ME TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND SHUT DRIVERS DOOR. WHEN I DO PARK, GET OUT AND LOCK MY CAR, THE DOME LIGHTS AGAIN WILL NOT GO OFF. I'M AFRAID I'LL COME OUT AFTER WORK TO A DEAD BATTERY! PLEASE DO SOMETHING! IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE OCTOBER 2015!
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAY ILLUMINATED IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND DOME LIGHTS WON'T SHUT OFF. HAD HAD IT TO DEALER 2 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR AND PROBLEM WOULD BE RESOLVED FOR 2 MONTHS AND THEN WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN.
PURCHASED A 2013 FORD EDGE ON 12/04/2015. COLLISION WARNING SENSORS AND ADVANCED TRACK SENSOR OFF WARNINGS KEPT COMING ON. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THEY REPLACED THEM, AND THINGS SEEMED TO BE OKAY WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A FEW OTHER UNRELATED ISSUES. HOWEVER, ON 02-25-2016 AFTER PICKING UP MY CAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN, THE ACCESSORY POWER IS ACTIVE SENSOR CAME ON. NOTHING WAS POWERED ON OR PLUGGED IN, AND IT WAS NOT MENTIONED IN THE MANUAL. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN, ONLY I HAVE NOT HAD THE BEST OVERALL EXPERIENCE WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SINCE BUYING THIS CAR. ONLINE REVIEWS FROM OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS COMPLAIN OF THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN AND LOSING POWER! THE COLLISION WARNING AND ADVANCE TRACK SENSORS HAVE COME ON WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, BUT THE ACCESSORY POWER WARNING FIRST CAME ON JUST AS I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT. IT REMAINED ON FOR SEVERAL HOURS, THEN WENT OUT. THEN THE COLLISION WARNINGS AND ADVANCE TRACK WARNINGS FLASHED ON AGAIN FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS OR SO, THEN WENT BACK OUT. I SHOULD ADD THAT THE DEALERSHIP SUPPOSEDLY RESET THE COLLISION WARNING AND ADVANCE TRACK SENSORS AND PERFORMED CCM ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES. AS OF YET, I HAVE NOT LOST POWER, BUT I AM GREATLY CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN! THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I OWN, AND I NEED TO KNOW WHAT CAN LEGALLY BE DONE?
DOOR LATCH SENSOR WON'T REGISTER THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS MEANS THE DOME LIGHT STAYS AND IS UNSAFE FOR NIGHT DRIVING.
DOOR AJAR
DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS FAULTY, COMMON PROBLEM AMONG FORD EDGES. FORD REFUSES TO ADDRESS ISSUE ACCORDING TO ALL ONLINE SOURCES. DOOR IS CONSTANTLY SHOWN AS AJAR, LEADING TO DEAD BATTERIES AND LOCKING ISSUES.
THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR ALARM WILL NOT GO OFF EVEN AFTER REPEATED CLOSING THE DOOR. IT PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM BEING LOCKED AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND DRAINS THE BATTERY.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR MALFUNCTIONS. AS IF DOOR IS STILL OPEN WHEN CLOSED. NOT KNOWING IF DOOR IS CLOSED SAFELY TO OPERATE VEHICLE,
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 STAYS ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. FAULTY SWITCH/LATCH IN DOOR.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR BECAME FAULTY WITH LESS THAN 50,000 MILES ON VEHICLE. DOOR REQUIRES MULTIPLE CLOSINGS IN ORDER FOR THE SENSOR TO IDENTIFY THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. IT IS AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE 10/8/15.
DOOR AJAR SWITCH IS FAILING, WON'T SHUT OFF. INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND DRAINING THE BATTERY.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON ALL THE TIME EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED SECURELY. THIS CAUSES THE VEHICLE NOT TO BE SECURED PROPERLY DURING OPERATION AND CAUSES FAULTY ANNOYING ALERTS TO SOUND INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. IT ALSO CAUSES INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON CAUSING A DANGEROUS OBSTRUCTION TO VISION WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. WHEN PARKED WITH THE ENGINE OFF, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON AND DRAIN THE BATTERY.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION COMES ON WHEN VEHICLE IS OFF, KEYS REMOVED AND DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED, LOCKED, AND UNABLE TO BE OPENED WITH DRIVER OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE. HAS COME ON WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAYAFTER CAR FUNCTIONING WITH NO NOTIFICATION PRIOR TO LEAVING PARKED POSITION. REQUIRES REPLACEMENT PER DEALERSHIP. <60,000 MILES. MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS RE: THIS ISSUE FROM OTHER CONSUMERS PER DEALERSHIP.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS CLOSED, THE INTERIOR LIGHTING AND DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE DOOR LATCH INCORRECTLY REPORTS THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. THIS TURNS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON AND DRAINS THE BATTERY, ALSO WILL NOT LET YOU TURN ON THE ALARM OR LOCK THE DOORS FROM THE INSIDE. CONSTANTLY CHIMES AND TELL YOU TO PUT IN PARK TO SHUT DOOR.
MY CAR WOULD JUST CUT OFF LOOSING ALL POWER. NO BRAKES NO STEERING! MOSTLY AT SLOW OR IDOL SPEEDS, TURNING INTO TRAFFIC THIS WAS A LARGE PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THAT THROUGH GOOGLE SEARCHING IT IS A LARGE PROBLEM FOR FORD. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND FORD NEEDS TO FIX THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED IF IT HASN'T ALREADY HAPPENED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER CLOSING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INDICATING THAT THE DOOR WAS STILL OPEN CAUSING THE DOME LIGHT TO REMAIN ON. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LOCK SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.
MY DRIVER DOOR AJAR LITE STAYS ON. NO MATTER HOW HARD I SHUT DOOR. AND DOM LITE STAYS ON
JUST BOUGHT 2013 FORD EDGE AND THE DOOR NEVER SHUTS SO THE DOOR AJAR KEEP COMING ON AND THE DOOM LIGHT DRAINS MY BATTERY
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 LATCH INCORRECTLY REPORTS THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. THIS TURNS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON AND DRAINS THE BATTERY, ALSO WILL NOT LET YOU TURN ON THE ALARM. ALSO MAKES YOU PULL OVER TO SHUT THE DOOR. HAD IT IN FOR SERVICE TWICE AND THEY FIXED IT, AT LEASE FOR A LITTLE WHILE, THAN IT CAME BACK. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, BUT NOT EVERYTIME.
"TAKATA RECALL" DRIVER SIDE DOOR ADJAR SENSOR REMAINS ON ALL THE TIME EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED SECURELY. THIS CAUSES THE VEHICLE NOT BE SECURED PROPERLY AND CAUSES ALERTS TO SOUND WHILE DRIVING.
2013 EDGE DRIVERS DOOR ALARM REMAINS ON EVEN AFTER CLOSURE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK. I'M LUCKY IF AFTER THE 6-7TH DOOR SLAM THE LIGHT MAY GO OUT, OTHERWISE I HAVE TO DRIVE AROUND WITH THE ALARM CONTINUOUSLY ON. NOW A SHIFT INTO PARK LIGHT IS ALSO COMING ON. USED TO LOVE MY EDGE, BUT SLOWLY THINKING DIVORCE.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR SWITCH IS MALFUNCTIONING AND CANNOT SENSE WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK PROPERLY OR AUTOMATICALLY BECAUSE SWITCH IS MALFUNCTIONING. THIS IS OCCURRING BOTH WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED AND IN MOTION. SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON RANDOMLY. AS I OFTEN HAVE A CHILD IN THE CAR, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE INABILITY FOR THE CAR TO DETECT WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND WHEN IT IS NOT AND THE RELATED LOCKING OF THE DOORS.
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 DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES AT VARIOUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON AND REMAIN ON. THIS MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY RELATED ISSUE AND FORD SHOULD FIX IT THROUGH A RECALL.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT AND ALARM GO OFF EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT. CAR IS CURRENTLY UNDER 36,000 MILES BUT JUST A FEW WEEKS OVER THE 3 YEAR MARK. DIEHL FORD IN BELLINGHAM, WA WILL NOT ATTEMPT TO HONOR THE WARRANTY.
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 LATCH SENSOR AND ASSAMBLY IS HAVING ISSUES. WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED, THE DOOR OPEN CHIME CONTINUES TO CHIME, DOOM LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE AUTO LOCK WILL NOT ENGAGE. WHEN LEAVING THE VEHICLE THE REMOTE LOCK WILL NOT WORK ON THE DOORS AFFECTED.
MY DOOR SENSOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. SO THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. ALSO WHEN YOU ARE DRIVIING THE DOORS DON'T LOCK. I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THIS PAST OCTOBER. IT WAS GOOD FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS THEN THE DOOR SENSOR STARTED GOING ON AND OFF. NOW IT IS STAYING ON ALL THE TIME.
2013 FORD EDGE LIMITED AWD 2 WEEKS BEFORE THANKSGIVING..THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN OUR GARAGE A FEW MINUTES AFTER MY WIFE GOT HOME FROM A 16 MILE ROUND TRIP TO TOWN. I HEARD A HIGH PITCH NOISE FROM THE ENGINE, PERFORMED A VISUAL INSPECTION AND SAW NO PROBLEMS. ASSUMED IT WAS NORMAL AND THAT IT WOULD TURN OFF ON ITS OWN. MOST NEW VEHICLES HAVE A FUNCTION TO TURN OFF ANY DEVICE BEFORE IT DRAINS THE BATTERY. THE NEXT DAY WE WENT TO START THE VEHICLE AND IT WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. JUMPED IT AND MY WIFE TOOK TO WORK. WORKED FINE THE REST OF THE DAY. SHE GOT HOME AND I HEARD THE NOISE AGAIN. CHECKED IT WITH BATTERY TESTER AND HAD A LOAD ON THE VEHICLE AND BATTERY WAS ALREADY DOWN TO 75%. TOOK TO LOCAL MECHANIC AND HE DIAGNOSED AS MECHANISM IN TRANSMISSION STAYING ON AND RECOMMENDED DEALER REPAIR. DEALER MISDIAGNOSED IT AS AFTERMARKET AUTOSTART 2 TIMES AND CHARGED ME TO REPLACE THE BATTERY THE SECOND TIME. FINALLY ON THE 4TH TRIP TO THE DEALER, THE MALFUNCTION HAPPENED WHILE THEY HAD THE VEHICLE. DEALER REPLACED MECHANISM IN TRANSMISSION, THIS DID NOT SOLVE PROBLEM. DEALER ORDERED DRIVE TRAIN COMPUTER(WAITED OVER A MONTH FOR PART), THIS HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. IT IS NOW THE FIRST WEEK OF FEBRUARY(ALMOST 3MNTHS LATER) AND THE VEHICLE IS STILL AT THE DEALER AND THEY CANNOT FIND WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!
WITH ALL DOORS CLOSED SECURELY, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING SOUNDS. IT SEEMS TO BE ONLY THE DRIVERS DOOR AT THIS TIME. WHEN THE DOOR AJAR WARNING IS ACTIVE, THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, AND THERE IS A PERSISTENT CHIME THAT SOUNDS. THIS HAPPENS WHEN IN PARK, IN DRIVE, AND WHILE TRAVELLING DOWN THE ROAD. CAR HAS BEEN TO DEALER FOR THIS, ONCE DURING WARRANTY, AND RECENTLY WHILE OUT OF WARRANTY. DEALER WANTS $433.14 TO REPAIR, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE.
UPON STARTING THE ENGINE, WE HAVE HAD SPORADIC DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR INDICATIONS WITH DASH ALARM & INTERIOR LIGHTING AFFECTED. THIS HAS PLAGUED US FROM 2500 MILES TO THE PRESENT (FEBRUARY 2016 @ 36,000 MILES). FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE OF VEHICLE ON APRIL 1, 2013. SEVERAL TRIPS TO THE DEALER W/DOOR ADJUSTMENTS & "BURNING OF THE CONTACTS" HAS NOT SOLVED THE INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THAT COMES BACK SOMETIMES FOR SEVERAL DAYS AT A TIME. WE ALWAYS CHECK THE DOOR TO MAKE SURE THAT IT IS SHUT & CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE CAR W/WARNING AND INTERIOR LIGHTS ON. AT NIGHT THIS ISSUE CREATES AN UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION. I FEEL THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY NATURE OF THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS BEEN VERY ELUSIVE, NOT SUPPLYING PAPERWORK CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. MAYBE FORD IS PLAYING DODGE BALL ON THIS, BUT THEY ARE ONLY MAKING ENEMIES OF THEIR CUSTOMERS.
CENTER DASH DISPLAY -- SEVERAL TRIPS TO THE DEALER WITH ADJUSTMENT TO THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER HAS NOT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERS SAYS THAT THE GEAR SHIFT PARKING CONTACT IS NOT SIGNALING THE DASH DISPLAY. IF THE CAR IS LEFT FOR SEVERAL DAYS, THE DISPLAY PROBLEM CREATES A DEAD BATTERY. THIS CONDITION EXISTS WHEN THE IGNITION IS OFF, KEYS ARE REMOVED, ALL DOORS ARE SHUT AND THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK. THIS ISSUE HAS EXISTED FROM 2014 THROUGH FEB. 2, 2016 AND IS ONGOING.
THE "DOOR ADJAR" LIGHT AND WARNING SOUNDS COME ON OUR FORD EDGE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED AND IT TELLS US TO SHIFT THE GEAR SHIFTER INTO PARK. NONE OF THE DOORS ARE OPEN. THIS HAS BECOME A PROBLEM EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS USED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WAS CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. IN ADDITION, THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000.
A DOOR OPEN WARNING INDICATION COMES UP AND RESULTS IN DOME LIGHTS ALSO STAYING ON EVEN WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS PROPERLY CLOSED. REQUIRES YOU TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THIS WARNING TO COME OFF. APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH FORD EDGE VEHICLES YET FORD HAS YET TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE.
DOOR AJAR INDICATION DOES NOT GO OUT WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK.
FORD EDGE 2013 DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON DASHBOARD ..AND INSIDE CAR LIGHTS STAY ON IT MAKES IT REALLY HARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT !! I TALK TO OTHER FRIENDS THAT OWN SAME TYPE OF CAR AND HAVE SAME PROBLEM ....WHILE IM DRIVING IT KEEPS TELLING TO PARK AND CLOSE THE DOOR EVEN DOUGH ITS CLOSE ITS FRUSTATING ..I ONLY HAD MY CAR FOR A FE MONTHS ONLY AND IM STRESSING OUT...
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE VEERED TO THE RIGHT INDEPENDENTLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,137. UPDATED 04/22/16*LJ
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE'S DOORS WERE CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW DOOR LATCH. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000.
THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AFTER THE DOOR IS CLOSED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE- THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON- CAR IS STATIONARY, BUT LIGHTS STAY ON IF YOU DRIVE
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.
DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED, DRIVERS DOOR. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON MAKING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT.
THE DRIVER DOOR SENSOR (WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT TIGHTLY AND SECURED) KEEPS TURNING INTERIOR LIGHTS ON WHILE DRIVING IN THE DARK! THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. GUESS WHAT ELSE HAPPENS? MY DOORS WILL NOT LOCK BECAUSE OF THIS SENSOR. THAT IS ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SAFETY SPECTRUM. IF THIS OCCURS BOTH DRIVING AND WHILE CAR IS NOT IN MOTION, HOW DOES FORD VALUE THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS? HOPEFULLY BY TAKING THAT THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND MAKE THEIR CUSTOMERS HAPPY. THIS IS DISAPPOINTING, AS WELL AS FRUSTRATING BECAUSE IT IS HAPPENING EVERY SINGLE DAY.
SENSOR TELLS ME THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS OPEN, WHEN IT IS OBVIOUSLY CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK UNTIL I SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES. VERY FRUSTRATING WHILE DRIVING TO HAVE THE DASH BEEPING AT YOU
WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED, VEHICLE STARTED TO SPUTTER AND LOST POWER, LOST ALL FUNCTION AND HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ENGINE SPUTTERED BADLY, WITH THE WRENCH LIGHT ON. TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON AND RAN SMOOTHLY AGAIN. IT HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE'S DOORS WERE CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE INTERIOR LIGHTING REMAINED ILLUMINATED FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 TO 15 MINUTES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW DOOR LATCH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 49,000.
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.
DOOR AJAR WARNING MESSAGE. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. NECESSARY TO OPEN AND CLOSE DOORS MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE LIGHTS GO OFF AND WARNING MESSAGE GOES AWAY. BOTH WHEN SECURING THE VEHICLE, AND PRIOR TO DRIVING OFF. PROBLEM MOST SEVERE DURING COLD TEMPERATURES. STANDING OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE FOR 10-20 MINUTES IN 19 DEGREE WEATHER TRYING TO SECURE VEHICLE. STARTED HAPPENING FROM DECEMBER 2015 TO PRESENT.
DOOR AJAR SWITCH KEEPS MALFUNCTIONING. DOOR WILL BE COMPLETELY CLOSED AND WARNING LIGHT COMES ON SAYING DRIVER'S DOOR IS STILL OPEN. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND WARNING LIGHT COMES ON TO TELL YOU TO PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK. FOUND MANY PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET WITH SAME PROBLEM. FORD CHARGING $300.00 TO $500.00 TO REPLACE SWITCH. WE HAVE TAKING IT TO FORD AND THEY SAID IT JUST NEEDED ADJUSTMENT. SWITCH IS NOW MALFUNCTIONING AGAIN AFTER LESS THAN A YEAR BEING FIXED.
THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATED AT INDICATED 45 MPH BY OWNER ON A STANDARD TWO LANE HIGHWAY IN A RURAL ENVIRONMENT. OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE WAS 48 DEGREES F. LIGHTING CONDITIONS WERE DAYLIGHT AND SUNNY. WITHOUT WARNING THE VISTA SUNROOF EXPLODED AND SHATTERED GLASS INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO EXTERNAL FORCE SUCH AS A PROJECTILE THAT CAUSED THE DAMAGE. ALL GLASS FRACTURES WERE AROUND EACH EDGE AT MOUNTING LOCATIONS. SIMILAR CASES HAVE BEEN REPORTED AND DISCUSSED ON VARIOUS FORUMS. IN EACH CASE, THE DAMAGE OCCURS EXACTLY THE SAME WAY. THIS IS MOST LIKELY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED VERY DANGEROUS. FORD MOTOR COMPANY NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS AND REACT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT.
CAR DISPLAYS A WARNING LIGHT INDICATING THAT THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS NOT PROPERLY CLOSED. FORD DEALER CLEANED AND ADJUSTED DOOR LATCH BUT THE PROBLEM HAS REOCCURRED.
THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR INDICATOR CONTINUALLY SAYS DOOR IS AJAR WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION AND PARKED EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS IN FACT SHUT. I HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THE VEHICLE TO RECOGNIZE THE DOOR IS IN FACT CLOSED. TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE TO NOT HAVE A RECALL.
TAKATA RECALL. WENT TO GET INTO MY 2013 FORD EDGE AND IT KEEPS TELLING ME DOOR AJAR. I HAVE TRIED SLAMMING THE DOOR AND NOTHING WORKS, THE LIGHT STAYS ON AND IT THEN CAUSES MY INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON UNTIL I DRIVE FAST ENOUGH THEN THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TURN OFF UNTIL I START TO SLOW DOWN AGAIN. IT THEN TELLS ME THAT MY DOOR AJAR AND TURNS MY LIGHTS BACK ON. THE SENSOR THAT I WAS TOLD IS BROKE IS ON BACK ORDER. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL.
THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR INDICATOR CONTINUALLY SAYS DOOR IS AJAR WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION AND PARKED. I HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THE VEHICLE TO RECOGNIZE THE DOOR IS IN FACT CLOSED. I HAD THIS ISSUE ABOUT A YEAR AGO, TOOK IT TO DEALER WHO TOOK THE DOOR APART AND CLEANED IT. THIS SEEMED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE FOR A WHILE, BUT IT'S BACK AGAIN AND INCREASING IN FREQUENCY. I SEE MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A POPULAR ISSUE. WOULD LIKE FORD TO RECOGNIZE AND ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS SENSOR.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR SENSOR DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. IT INDICATES THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN THIS HAPPENS.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR IN DRIVER DOOR REMAINS IN "AJAR" STATUS EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS CAUSES AN UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION WITH THE FOLLOWING: 1. CONTINUOUS ALERT 2. DOME LIGHT REMAINS LIT, CAUSING VISION ISSUE WHILE NIGHT DRIVING 3. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK THE LAST ONE IS THE MOST CONCERNING AS IT COULD CREATE A SITUATION WHERE A DOOR MAY ACCIDENTALLY BE OPENED DURING VEHICLE OPERATION. ALSO COULD CREATE ISSUES IN HIGHER CRIME AREAS AT STOPLIGHTS (SOMEONE COULD ACCESS THE CAR DUE TO NOT BEING LOCKED) THIS SITE REQUIRES ME TO LIST A DATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED, AND I HAVE ENTERED THE FIRST DAY I REMEMBER IT, BUT IT IS AN ONGOING ISSUE.
SENSOR ON THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS DEFECTIVE, CAUSING THE DOORS NOT TO LOCK, AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS NOT TO GO OFF WHEN IT IS LOCKED. THIS ULTIMATELY DRAINED THE BATTERY AND LEFT MY WIFE STRANDED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,967.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR WILL NOT TURN OFF. LIGHTS KEEP GOING ON WHILE DRIVING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ABS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THE ISSUE; HOWEVER DETAILS OF THE DIAGNOSIS COULD NOT BE PROVIDED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED SHORTLY AFTER THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN UNKNOWN FRONT DOOR LATCHING MECHANISM FAILED TO PROPERLY REGISTER THAT THE VEHICLE DOOR WAS CLOSED. AS A RESULT, AN INTERNAL WARNING MESSAGE INFORMING THE CONTACT TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND CLOSE THE DOOR DISPLAYED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WARNING MESSAGE CHIMED UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS PLACED INTO THE PARK POSITION. THE CONTACT FURTHER STATED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND TURNED OFF, THE INTERIOR LIGHT FAILED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY AND SHUT OFF CAUSING THE BATTERY TO BE DRAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE DOOR LOCK MECHANISM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. IT WAS UNKNOWN IF THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.
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.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON,WE HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE IT SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THE LIGHTS TO GO OUT WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF, WHEN THE CAR IS ON IT CAUSES THE WARNING CHIME TO CONSTANTLY SOUND.
DOOR ADJAR SIGNAL TURNS ON WHILE DRIVING. INTERIOR SOME LIGHT TURNS ON AS WELL. INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN CAR OR EXITING VEHICLE. FAULTY DOOR SWITCH.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR CLOSING. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. WHEN THE CAR IS OFF THE INTERIOR LIGHT WILL STAY ON BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, IT TAKES SLAMMING THE DOOR MANY TIMES TO TRIGGER THE LIGHTS TO GO OFF. NOW IT IS AT THE POINT WE ARE AFRAID IT WON'T GO OFF AT ALL OR WE WILL DAMAGE THE DOOR, SO WE ARE ENTERING THE CAR THROUGH THE PASSENGER SIDE IN ORDER NOT TO SET THE ISSUE OFF AGAIN. WHILE DRIVING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND I CANNOT LOCK MY CAR DOORS. I HEARD VIA THE WEB THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE FORD EDGE AND OTHER FORD MODELS. MY VEHICLE IS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD AND I HAVE BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER TO GET FIXED. THEY ARE REPLACING THE DOOR ASSEMBLY AND IT IS COSTING ME ABOUT $400.00 BUT WE CANNOT CONTINUE DRIVING IT IN THIS CONDITION. I BELIEVE THIS IS A HORRIBLE DESIGN AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AND A BETTER FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. AT THE RATE THIS IS HAPPENING I WILL NEED TO HAVE THE DOOR ASSEMBLY REPLACED IN ANOTHER TWO YEARS. I FIND THIS UNACCEPTABLE!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE PARKED, THE PASSENGER DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. IN ADDITION, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED FOR A LONGER PERIOD AFTER EXITING THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,800.
DOOR AJAR WARNING CONTINUES TO COME ON EVERY DAY. I HAVE HAD THE CAR IN ALREADY STILL DOES IT I HAVE TO SLAM DOOR TO GO OFF. STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE ALARM ACTIVATED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.
BOTH THE DRIVER AND DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR LATCHES AND SENSOR FAILED. THE SENSOR BELIEVES THAT THE DOORS ARE AJAR WHEN IN FACT THEY ARE NOT. BECAUSE OF THIS FAILURE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE DRIVING UNTIL YOU REACH A CERTAIN SPEED. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT IS HARD TO SEE OUT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ALSO STAY ON FOR A VERY LONG TIME AFTER YOU TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. IF YOU TAKE THIS IN TO BE FIXED IT COSTS AT LEAST $345.
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.
WHILE VEHICLE STILL UNDER WARRANTY ON JULY 1, 2015 TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER FOR DOOR AJAR LIGHT NOT GOING OFF. ON 12/7/2015 TOOK IT IN AGAIN BUT HAD TO PAY A DEDUCTIBLE SINCE THE 36 MONTH WARRANTY/MILEAGE HAD EXPIRED. FIRST THE DEALER KEPT THE VEHICLE OVER NIGHT TO FIX BUT THE SECOND TIME THEY STATED THAT I HAD TO PAY THE DEDUCTIBLE FOR A DOOR LATCH. I ASKED THE REP SEVERAL TIMES WHAT WAS DONE BEFORE AND WHY THAT I HAD TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT THE WORKMANSHIP DID NOT LAST AND SHE STATED I'LL HAVE TO SEE BUT NEVER GAVE ANY INFORMATION WHEN I PICKED THE VEHICLE UP. FORD SHOULD RECALL FOR DOOR AJAR PROBLEMS AND I SHOULD GET MY DEDUCTIBLE BACK.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR FAULTY. THE PANEL SHOWS THAT A DOOR IS AJAR WHICH IS NOT. THIS CAUSES THE DOMELIGHT TO TURN ON FOR QUITE A LONG TIME. WHEN IT HAPPENS AT NIGHT VISIBILITY IS POOR AND DANGEROUS. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED TWO SENSOR ON ONE DOOR (DRIVERS SIDE) NOW GOING ON THIRD (FRONT PASSENGER SIDE) IT BECOMES VERY DANGEROUS SINCE VISIBILTY AT IS BAD. THIS COMPLAINT IS BECOMING PRETTY COMUN. A COMMUNITY OF FORD CUSTOMERS THAT REALLY NEEDE HELP. JUST HOPE IT DOES NOT BECOME A TRAGEDY.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED CAUSING THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON AND I AM NOT ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHILE IN THE VEHICLE. THE FALSE DOOR AJAR SENSOR PREVENTS ME FROM RECOGNIZING WHEN THERE IS A REAL AJAR DOOR SITUATION. ALSO, THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AT NIGHT CAUSING A NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR CONTINUOUSLY GOING OFF WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. CONTINUES TO STAY ON AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO SHUT DOOR TO MAKE ALARM GO OFF. MAKES IT A DRIVING DISTRACTION.. HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE AND WE JUST TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE REPAIRED. OUR EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER THE PROBLEM AND THE DEALERSHIP WANTED OVER $500 TO REPAIR. WE CANNOT AFFORD THE REPAIR RIGHT NOW SO WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT UNTIL WE CAN. AGAIN, A MAJOR DRIVING DISTRACTION
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
DOOR AJAR SENSOR CONSTANTLY TURNS ON AND WON'T SHUT OFF - AT TIMES I HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR 10+ TIMES TO GET IT TO SHUT OFF. ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND DOORS DON'T LOCK. VERY UNSAFE CONDITIONS. IT HAS GONE ON FOR 6 MONTHS AND I HAVE FINALLY HAD ENOUGH. COST TO GET IT FIXED IT $300. ONCE THIS RECALL GOES THRU I WILL BE REQUESTING MY MONEY BACK. I SEE THEY RECALLED SEVERAL YEARS WORTH OF VEHICLES OF FORDS, JUST NOT THE NEWER ONES. RIP OFF.
FAULTY DOOR AJAR SENSOR. RELATED TO THE TSB-14-0011.
WHEN TAKING A LEFT OR RIGHT TURN ONTO ANOTHER ROAD, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO ILLUMINATION TO THE SIDE DURING THE ACTUAL TURN UNTIL COMPLETED ON RURAL ROADS WITH NO LIGHTING. THE EXPERIENCE IS LIKE TURNING INTO A BLACK HOLE UNTIL FRONT WHEELS ARE BACK STRAIGHT. ROAD SIDES WITH ADJACENT DITCHES OR ANYTHING IN THE ROAD LIKE PEOPLE OR ANIMALS WILL NOT BE SEEN, A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. LOW BEAM ILLUMINATION IS NOT THAT GOOD UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES; IT LIKE DRIVING WITH TWO VERY NARROW BEAM FIXED FLASHLIGHTS. LAST WEEK I ALMOST MISSED A TURN ON AN UNFAMILIAR ROAD BY JUST MISSING RUNNING INTO A DITCH CLOSE TO THE ROADSIDE AT ITS' INTERSECTION.
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.
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.
THE VEHICLE DOES NOT SENSE THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED. THIS RESULTS IN THE DOORS NOT LOCKING WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED OR IN MOTION. IT ALSO CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON FOR A LONG TIME. I THINK THAT BOTH OF THESE ISSUES ARE A SAFETY HAZARD.
ONCE AGAIN THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED, AND ALL DOORS/HATCH ARE PROPERLY CLOSED. I HAVE TO SLAM THE DRIVER'S DOOR VERY HARD MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE IT WILL GO OFF AND ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO BE LOCKED, AND THE ALARM TO BE SET!!! MY CAR HAS LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON IT. THE FRUSTRATING THING IS I REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER IN JUNE AND THEY CLAIM THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. WELL, THEY WERE WRONG, VERY WRONG!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL DOORS FAILED TO LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE LATCH AND THE DOOR AJAR SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE EXTERIOR LIGHT FAILED TO ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.
DOME LIGHTS, AJAR LIGHT OTHER DASH BOARD LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN I GET OUT OF THE CAR. I CAN LOCK OR NOT AND THEY WILL STAY ON AND DRAIN MY BATTERY. I SOMETIMES TAKE 5 MINUTES OPENING AND CLOSING DOORS AND LOCKING/UNLOCKING VEHICLE BEFORE IT WILL GO OFF. ALSO WHILE TRAVELING THE DOME LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND AT NIGHT I HAVE TO STOP OR HAVE A WRECK. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHY HASN'T FORD DONE SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. WILL NEVER BUY A FORD PRODUCT AGAIN ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM WITH A RECALL
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND IT FLIPPED OVER THREE TIMES. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. ALL FOUR PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED INJURIES. TWO OF THE PASSENGERS WERE TAKEN BY AMBULANCE TO THE HOSPITAL. ONE OF THE PASSENGERS HAD A LUMBAR FRACTURE, ONE HAD AN UPPER AND LOWER SPINAL FRACTURE, THE THIRD HAD A VERTEBRAL FRACTURE, AND THE DRIVER HAD ABRASIONS. THE THREE PASSENGERS HAD TO STAY IN THE HOSPITAL: TWO WERE DISCHARGED ON THE NOVEMBER 19, 2015 AND ONE HAD TO STAY IN THE HOSPITAL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000...UPDATED 02/22/16 *BF UPDATED 09/19/2017*JS
ABOUT 6-8 MONTHS AGO I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER. THE PROBLEM WAS THE DRIVER DOOR SAYING IT WAS AJAR. I WOULD SHUT IT SEVERAL TIMES AND STILL THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STILL CAME ON. IT WOULD CHIME LIKE THE DOOR WAS OPEN AND IT IS VERY DISTRACTING, DOORS DON'T LOCK AND INSIDE LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF. THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM BY "CLEANING " THE SENSOR. THE PROBLEM HAS STARTED AGAIN AND I NO LONGER HAVE THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. I THINK THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS VERY DISTRACTING AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS HAD THIS COMPLAINT.
INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY LIT AND DRIVERS SIDE DOOR ALERT STAYS ON, SAYING DOOR IS AJAR.
GET DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALARM WHEN DRIVER DOOR IS CLOSED, WHICH KEEPS DOME LIGHT ON, WON'T ALLOW DOORS TO LOCK WHEN DRIVING, AND WHEN DRIVING AND GO FROM STOP TO DRIVE GET ALARM SHIFT TO PARK BECAUSE IT SENSES DOOR IS AJAR. THIS HAS BEEN REPAIRED AND REPAIR LASTED ABOUT 6 MO. HAVE TO SHUT DOOR SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT SENSES DOOR IS CLOSED AND THEN ON SOME OCCASSIONS ALARM WILL NOT GO OFF AT ALL.
FALUTLY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR LATCH SENSOR. MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF. WHEN DRIVING THE CONSOLE SCREEN BEEPS EVERY MINUTE TO TELL ME MY DOOR IS AJAR. REARVIEW CAMERA DON'T WORK
THE DOOR LATCH IS DEFECTIVE. IT READS THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS REALLY CLOSED.
DOOR SWITCH, DRIVERS DOOR IS SHUT AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON AND WILL NOT LOCK THE DOORS WHEN IN MOTION AND KEEPS THE DOME LIGHT ON . I HAVE MADE A COMPLAINT WITH FORD CASE NUMBER CAS8223825 . THEY DONE SEE TO CARE. WHY SHOULD I PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE A RECALL AS IT IS A SAFTY ISSUE
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS SECURED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WOULD OCCUR INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHEN TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.
FALUTLY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR LATCH SENSOR. MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF. WHEN DRIVING THE CONSOLE SCREEN BEEPS EVERY MINUTE TO TELL ME MY DOOR IS AJAR.
WHEN DRIVING MY CAR THE ENGINE WILL GO TO IDLE WITH NO WARNING. I CAN BE MAKING A TURN, ACCELERATING, OR JUST CRUISING AT SPEED. THIS HAS BEEN RECALLED ON MOST ALL OTHER FORD VEHICLES. I COULD JUST GET IT REPLACED, BUT THE ISSUES IS NOT ONLY THE THROTTLE BODY, ITS THE PROGRAMMING. IF IT FINDS AN ISSUE WITH THE THROTTLE BODY IT GIVES UP, AND STALLS. IN THE RECALLED FORDS WITH THIS THEY HAVE CHANGED THE PROGRAMMING SO IT KEEPS TRYING TO ACCELERATE, NOT JUST GIVE UP. WITH THAT BEING SAID THERE IS NO POINT TO CHANGE IT, IT WILL ONLY HAPPEN AGAIN AFTER I SPEND $1000 TO FIX IT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS! THE FIRST TIME I WAS MAKING A LEFT IN TO TRAFFIC AND IT CUT OUT, LUCKY FOR EVERYONE THEY HAD ENOUGH TIME TO STOP BEFORE I GOT T-BONED MY 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC. FORD WILL NOT RECTIFY THIS ISSUE UNTIL MORE PEOPLE DIE! PLEASE HELP WITH AN INVESTIGATION! CODES GIVEN BY OBD2 ARE P2111 AND P2112. AT THE SAME TIME. THANK YOU. *TR
DOOR AJAR WARNING AND DOOR CHIMING. IF DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY LIGHTS STAY ON DRAINING BATTERY LEAVING OWNER STRANDED WITH DEAD BATTERY. WHILE DRIVING DOOR CHIMING CONSTANTLY GOING OFF DISTRACTING OWNER WHILE DRIVING. PROBLEM HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED

DOOR AJAR DRIVERS SIDE WILL NOT GO OFF, LIGHTS REMAIN ON, UNABLE TO GET THEM OFF. INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS, DOME LIGHT REMAINS ON CAUSING NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD, FALSE DOOR AJAR PREVENTS DRIVER FROM KNOWING REAL DOOR AJAR SITUATION
CA. PASSENGER DOOR SAYS AJAR AFTER SHUTTING DOOR. CAN OPEN AND SHUT OVER AND OVER AND SOMETIMES IT WILL GO OFF, OTHER TIMES WILL NOT. CAUSES LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHEN VEHICLE IS RUNNING AND NOT RUNNING. SAFETY CONCERN: THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, LEAVING THE BACK DOORS UNLOCKED WITH SMALL CHILDREN ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR. EVERYTIME THE VEHICLE STOPS THE ANNOYING ALERT SENSOR SIGNAL KEEPS GOING OFF. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS, I SEE IT IS VERY COMMON FOR THIS VEHICLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, WHICH LOCATED A FAILURE AT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR LIGHTS. LIGHTS STAY ON AND IF YOU LOCK THE DOOR WITH KEY AND WALK AWAY YOU HAVE A DEAD BATTER THEY NEXT DAY. REPEATED SHUTING OF DOOR WILL SOME TIMES WILL RESET DOOR AJAR BUT IT EVENTUALLY FAILS COMPLETELY AND REPEATED SLAMMING OF DOOR DOES NOTHING. PULLED FUSE TO INTERIOR LIGHTS TO KEEP BATTERY FROM DYING.
FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THE 40K MILES THAT I HAVE OWNED MY NEW FORD EDGE THE PTU SEAL HAS FAILED. THIS TIME WHEN THE DEALERSHIP TOOK IT APART TO REPLACE, THEY FOUND METAL SHAVINGS INSIDE, SO THEY ARE REPLACING THE ENTIRE UNIT. HORRIBLE SMELL, VERY CAUSTIC, MAKES MY NOSE BURN. HAPPENS AFTER DRIVING AND WHEN YOU COME TO A STOP OR SLOW DOWN THE CABIN FILLS WITH A NOXIOUS SMELL.
THIS IS A 2013 FORD EDGE LIMITED W/V6 ENGINE. WHILE DRIVING, THERE IS A SUDDEN LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, THE ENGINE GOES TO A ROUGH IDLE, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AND THERE IS NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. AFTER SHUTTING EVERYTHING DOWN, THE ENGINE WILL FINALLY RESTART AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AND RUN NORMALLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, THE LAST TIME WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP 6 TIMES FOR REPAIR. SO FAR, THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED, A SENSOR WAS REPLACED, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS REPLACED AND SOME WIRING WAS REPLACED. THE LAST TIME THE PROBLEM OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME AFTER THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I SUBSEQUENTLY RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED, IT IS TOTALLY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I THEN CONTACTED THE FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP CENTER AND WAS ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER. THE FORD REGIONAL SERVICE MANAGER ASSIGNED TO THE CASE FINALLY TOLD ME THAT BECAUSE THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM THERE WAS NOTHING FURTHER THEY COULD DO AND I SHOULD COME AND PICK UP THE VEHICLE.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON, OVERHEAD LIGHTS STAY ON, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, SAYS SHIFT TO PARK AFTER STOPPING & STARTING AGAIN.
DRIVING ON A 3 LANE CITY ROAD IN THE LEFT MOST LANE AT 50 MILES AN HOUR WHEN I HEARD A SNAP. THEN IMMEDIATELY THE STEERING PULLED HARD TO THE LEFT. I FOUGHT IT BACK TO THE RIGHT WHILE BRAKING. EVENTUALLY THE CAR CAME TO A STOP. I GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND SAW THAT THE FRONT LEFT TIRE WAS FLIPPED 90 DEGREES TO THE LEFT AND WHAT APPEARED TO BE THE AXEL LAYING ON THE GROUND. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION IT WAS FOUND THAT THE BALL JOINT HAD BROKEN APART FROM THE REST OF THE DRIVE ASSEMBLY AND RIPPED OUT THE AXEL. THE VEHICLE IS AN ALL WHEEL DRIVE AND HAD 50,000 MILES. PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT THERE WAS ONGOING ALIGNMENT ISSUES THAT THE DEALER COULD NOT DIAGNOSE.
WHEN CLOSING DRIVERS DOOR INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WILL NOT SHUT OFF AFTER REPEATED TRYS TO RECLOSE DOOR. ALSO DOOR AJAR LIGHT IN DASH REMAINS ON. CANNOT TRUST WARNING DISPLAY IF DOOR IS PROPERLY SHUT. HAVE HAD PROBLEM CHECKED AND TOLD THE DOOR AJAR SWITCH IS MALFUNCTIONING. HAPPENS 90% OF THE TIME.
THE TIRE PRESSURE IS LOW WAY TO OFTEN.IT SEEMS THE TIRES AREN'T HOLDING AIR.I AIR THEM UP BUT IT HAPPENS EVERY FEW WEEKS.
THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR SENSOR IS NOT WORKING. WE HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE DOOR TO CLOSE. RIGHT NOW MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN IN THE GARAGE FOR OVER 20 MINUTES TRYING TO GET THE EDGE TO RECOGNIZE THAT WE SHUT THE DOOR. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY OFF AND NO KEYS IN THE CAR. YOU CAN ALSO SIT IN THE CAR AND SHUT THE DOOR WITH THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND IT WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THAT YOU HAVE CLOSED THE DOOR. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED LAST FALL AND WAS OCCASIONAL, BUT HAS BEEN CONSISTENT IN THE LAST MONTH.
ON OCTOBER 20, 2015 WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET IT SUDDENLY LOST POWER. ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN VERY ROUGH, SPUTTERING. ACCELERATOR WOULD NOT MAKE THE CAR SPEED UP OR INCREASE RPM. "WRENCH" SYMBOL POPPED ON.GOT CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. WHILE WAITING TO HEAR ON CAR, RESEARCHED SYMPTOMS AND FOUND MANY OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS THAT PROBABLY IS THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY FAILURE. DEALERSHIP HAD CAR 2 DAYS, COULD NOT REPLICATE PROBLEM SO THEY DID NOTHING. SERVICE REP TOLD ME IT SOUNDED LIKE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY FAILURE AND TO WAIT FOR IT TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND THEN BRING IT IN. SAID IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND THEN WOULD HAPPEN MORE OFTEN. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND DON'T KNOW WHY THIS PART HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED. THIS CAR WAS MY DREAM CAR AND NOW I AM STUCK WITH A NIGHTMARE. I WANT FORD TO RECALL OR DO A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION CAMPAIGN" AND REPLACE THE PART SO I CAN HAVE A VEHICLE THAT I CAN DRIVE CONFIDENTLY. I FEEL THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE MORE THAN AN INCONVENIENCE AND COULD BE DEADLY. FORD, STAND BY ME!
PASSENGER DOOR SAYS AJAR AFTER SHUTTING DOOR. CAN OPEN AND SHUT OVER AND OVER AND SOMETIMES IT WILL GO OFF, OTHER TIMES WILL NOT. CAUSES LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHEN VEHICLE IS RUNNING AND NOT RUNNING. SAFETY CONCERN: THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, LEAVING THE BACK DOORS UNLOCKED WITH SMALL CHILDREN ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION.
DRIVER DOOR SHOWS AJAR EVEN WHEN CLOSED. HAVE TO CLOSE MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET THE SWITCH TO RECOGNIZE IT IS CLOSED.
THE DRIVER SIDE REAR "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT GOES ON EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND LOCKED. IT KEEPS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON EVEN WHEN I START DRIVING, WHICH IS VERY DISTRACTING DURING EVENING HOURS. THE LIGHTS STAY ON FOR MORE THAN 5 MINUTES AFTER PARKING THE CAR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE WARNING INDICATOR DISPLAYED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS AJAR EVEN THOUGH ALL FOUR DOORS WERE CLOSED SECURELY. THE FOUR DOORS FAILED TO LOCK WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN OF THE SPECIFIC PART THAT WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED A SECOND TIME. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.
DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR SENSOR HAS MALFUNCTIONED. IT INDICATES THE DOOR IS OPEN EVEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. ALARMS SOUND AND THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. CAR WAS TAKEN TO FORD TO REPAIR AND I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD ONLY CLEAN THE CONTACTS WHICH IS ONLY A TEMPORARY SOLUTION AND EACH TIME THEY CHARGE A FEE.
THE DOOR SENSOR DOES NOT REGISTER THE DOOR AS BEING CLOSED, I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, BOTH WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND NOW NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, AND THE PROBLEM RECURS ON BOTH FRONT DOORS. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN FLAW, WITH YOUTUBE VIDEOS ON REPAIR AND SERVICE. SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO A RECALL.
DOOR AJAR WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED CAUSING DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON AFTER EXITING THE VEHICLE ALSO MAKING IN UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE
AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON. ISSUE ONLINE SEEMS TO BE DIRTY OR BAD SENSOR. ALREADY PAID THE DEALER TO CLEAN. LASTED ONE YEAR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT OPENED AND CLOSED THE DOOR, BUT THE WARNING INDICATOR WAS STILL ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAINED ON WHILE DRIVING. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SLOW DOWN WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN, THE PARK ASSIST WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. AFTER THE CONTACT MADE THE TURN, THE PARK ASSIST WARNING INDICATOR WAS NO LONGER ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.
DOOR ADJAR WARNING KEEPS COMING ON EVEN AFTER DOOR IS SHUT HARD. BEEN TOLD IT'S A FAULTY DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY BY DEALER. VEHICLE DOES THIS WHEN STATIONARY.
MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR ERROR MESSAGE STAYS ON WHEN THE KEY IS ON AND WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I CANNOT RESET IT AND A WARNING BEEP CONTINUES AS THE ERROR CANNOT BE CLEARED. STARTED A MONTH AGO AND WOULD RANDOMLY APPEAR NOW IT STAYS ON. ALSO WHEN I LOCK MY CAR NOW WITH THE REMOTE IT BEEPS TWICE NOT ONCE. I FEEL THERE COULD BE AN ISSUE WITH SECURITY NOW TOO.
THE DOOR SENSOR ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS FAULTY AND WILL REPORT THE DOOR AS AJAR WHEN IT IS POSITIVELY NOT AJAR. THIS PREVENTS THE CAR FROM BEING ABLE TO BE LOCKED AND CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED BY NUMEROUS PERSONS AND FORD WILL NOT ADDRESS IT.
FAULTY SWITCH CAUSES DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR INDICATOR TO STAY ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AND CAN NOT LOCK DOORS WHEN DRIVING.
VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY GO TO IDLE. AT ANY SPEED, I WAS RECENTLY MAKING A LEFT TURN THROUGH TRAFFIC AND IT DIED. TROUBLE CODES ARE P2111, AND P2112. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE REST OF THE FORDS THAT HAD THE RECALL. THE FORD DEALER I CALLED ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM, BUT SAID IT WOULD BE $1000 TO FIX. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS VERY OFTEN, AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED FOR THE FORD EDGE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE!
WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED SENSOR IS STILL SHOWING OPEN DOORS, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND CABIN LIGHTS REMAIN ON, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR DRIVER TO RECOGNIZE AN ACTUAL OPEN DOOR WHICH THEN PLACES PASSENGERS IN DANGER WHEN DOOR DOES REMAIN OPEN. SENSOR DOESN'T RECOGNIZE DOORS TO BE CLOSED SO IT PROMPTS FOR CAR TO BE PLACED INTO PARK WHEN IN DRIVE SO DOOR CAN BE CLOSED. TODAY WHILE DRIVING MY DAUGHTER WHO WAS SITTING IN THE BACK SEAT HAD THE DOOR FLING OPEN WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. THE DOOR SENSOR HAS BEEN SHOWING THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN SO WHEN THE DOOR WAS ACTUALLY OPEN I WAS NOT ABLE TO TELL AND PUT HER IN DANGER.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALARM. DOOR IS CLOSED BUT SWITCH IS NOT MADE UP. THIS PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM BEING LOCKED FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE. IF THE LOCK SWITCH IS ACTUATED, 2 SECONDS LATER IT UNLOCKS ALL DOORS. THIS COULD BE HAZARDOUS WITH SMALL CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE OR WHEN DRIVING IN A BAD NEIGHBORHOOD. FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS BUT REFUSES TO RECALL BECAUSE IT IS NOT DEEMED A SAFETY ISSUE BY THEM.
ATTEMPTED TO LOCK DOOR AFTER 'DOOR AJAR' CHIMED ON. SLAMMED DOOR SEVERAL TIMES BUT THE WARNING DID NOT GO AWAY. DROVE TO WORK LIKE THIS AND THE DOORS DIDN'T LOCK AFTER GOING 10MPH. THIS OCCURS EVERYDAY. I DON'T KNOW IF MY DOOR WILL OPEN IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT OR WHAT. NOTHING HAS BEEN CORRECTED AS OF THIS WRITING.
PART OF THE DASHBOARD WILL MADLY CHANGE ON ITS OWN GOING THOUGH THE DIFFERENT OPTIONS LIKE IT'S STUCK; THE NAVIGATION DISPLAY AND DASH BOARD WHEN STARTING THE CAR WILL NOT ALWAYS LIGHT UP LIKE IT USED TO DO. THERE IS A DELAY AT TIMES. THE AMBIANT LIGHTING NOMATTER HOW MANY TIMES I CHOOSE PINK IT ALWAYS DEFAULTS BACK TO BLUE ON ITS OWN. MY CAR HAS BEGUN TO MAKE A HORRIBLE NOISE UNDER THE CARRIAGE, WE SUSPECT IT IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. IT FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE STRUGGLES TO MOVE FORWARD. JUST THE OTHER EVENING AFTER LEAVING WORK, MY INTERIOR OVERHEAD LIGHTS WOULD NOT GO OFF. NOMATTER HOW MANY TIMES I TRIED TO TURN THEM OFF. THE ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THE DASH BOARD BEGAN A WHILE BACK AND THE NOISE JUST RECENTLY. THE MILEAGE ON MY CAR IS 36,000 MORE OR LESS. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING TO OUR CAR. WELL TAKEN CARE OF, I DRIVE IT TO WORK AND BACK. THE CAR JUST TURNED IN AUGUST 2 YEARS. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP THIS COMING TUESDAY. I BELIEVE MY CAR IS STILL UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY, I PRAY THAT IT IS. JUST TODAY, MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT LOCK AS WELL. I WILL UPDATE AS SOON AS I TAKE IT TO THE SERVICE DEPT.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON AND DOOR IS CLOSED.ALSO INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING AT NIGHT.FORD WILL NOT FIX IT,NO RECALLS.PEOPLE HAD THE SENSOR REPLACED ON DOOR AND LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN.WASTED TIME AND MONEY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED WITHOUT THE BRAKE PEDAL BEING DEPRESSED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON THREE OTHER OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,000.
WHEN YOU CLOSED THE DOOR THE SENSOR SOUNDS LIKE THE DOOR IS OPEN. LIGHTS STAY ON AND IS IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN ON THE ALARM. CAUSED DAMAGED TO THE BATTERY. YOU NEED TO CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE THE SENSOR KEEP INDICATED THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN.
I AM THE OWNER OF A 2013 FORD EDGE LIMITED AND KNOW NUMEROUS OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. THE DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR SENSOR FAILS AND SHOWS THE WARNING LIGHT THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN SHUT. NOW DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE DRIVING, INTERIOR LIGHTS MOMENTARILY STAY ON AND THE ALARM BEEPS ( WARNING THAT THE DOOR AJAR IS KEEPING IT FROM SETTING PROPERLY. THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND SO DOES MY REAR CABIN LIGHT. BOTH LIGHTS STAY ON AS I'M DRIVING. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE! WHEN I LOOKED ONLINE, I FOUND THAT IT IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM.
CAR DOOR IS CLOSED BUT THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT COMES ON AND ALSO DOESN'T ALLOW ME TO LOCK THE DOORS. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AS I DRIVE WITH A CHILD AND IT IS HARD TO SEE WHEN THE CAR INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON AT NIGHT WHILE I AM DRIVING BECAUSE THE CAR THINKS THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCK, SPECIFICALLY THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR, STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AFTER APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR OF OWNERSHIP. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE AS LONG AS THE DOOR AJAR ERROR APPEARS ON THE MESSAGE WINDOW, THE COMPUTER WILL NOT ALLOW ANY OF THE DOORS TO LOCK. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE OCCUPANT(S) COULD BE EJECTED FROM THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH OR A ROLLOVER. ADDITIONALLY, THE DEALER WANTS BETWEEN $300 AND $500 TO REPLACE THE FAULTY PART (COST $90) DUE TO HAVING TO DISMANTLE THE DOOR TO ACCESS THE PART. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THERE ARE DO IT YOURSELFERS REPAIRING OR DISABLING THE SENSOR, WHICH COULD CREATE OTHER DANGERS IF THE DOOR IS NOT PROPERLY RECONSTRUCTED. FURTHER INTERNET RESEARCH REVEALED THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE ABOUT 1996 AND IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ACROSS SEVERAL MODELS AND PLATFORMS (CARS, TRUCKS AND SUV'S). THE OTHER MINOR ANNOYANCE IS THAT THE INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT GO OFF AS LONG AS THE SENSOR IS ACTIVATED, CAUSING BATTERY DRAIN AND SECURITY ISSUES.
DRIVING FORD EDGE 2013 APPROX. 40 MPH ON HIGHWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE CAME TO ALMOST A DEAD STOP. IT SEEMED AS IF THE BRAKES BECAME FULLY ENGAGED OR THE TRANSMISSION SEIZED. A TRUCK BEHIND US SWERVED AND BRAKED AND ALMOST CRASHED INTO US. MY 2 CHILDREN AND I WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIOLENTLY AS IT MOVED ABOUT 2 MPH. I BARELY WAS ABLE TO GET IT OVER TO THE RIGHT, OFF THE HIGHWAY. IT WOULD NOT GO ANY FURTHER. A RED WRENCH ICON LIT ON THE DASH. I TOWED IT TO MIDWAY FORD. SERVICE MANAGER STATED THE THROTTLE BODY PART IS DEFECTIVE AND RECALLED, BUT RESETS ITSELF IF VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF FOR A WHILE, SO IF I DID NOT TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, FORD WOULD FIX IT FOR FREE. SINCE I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND IT RESET, I HAD TO PAY HIM $900 TO REPLACE IT. SINCE I DID NOT HAVE $900, HE ADVISED ME TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE VERY SLOWLY ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD FROM NOW ON, AS A PRECAUTION SO MY CHILDREN OR I DO NOT GET INJURED OR KILLED THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS. IF THIS IS FORD'S CRITERIA FOR REPLACING THIS LIFE THREATENING DEFECTIVE PART, THAT IT MUST BE IN ACTIVE DEFECT STATUS WHEN ARRIVING AT THE DEALER, THEN NOT ONLY HAS FORD HAS FOUND A WAY TO BEAT PAYING FOR THE 1.6 MILLION VEHICLES THEY AGREED TO RECALL WITH THIS DEFECT, SINCE YOU CAN'T DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT 900 RPM TO THE DEALER, OR TOW IT WHILE RUNNING, BUT FORD IS GETTING RICH OFF THE RECALL (THE PART IS ABOUT $185 AND TAKES 15 MINUTES TO REPLACE), AND 1.6 MILLION PEOPLE MUST PAY FORD $900 TO FIX A RECALLED DEFECTIVE PART.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND CAUSED THE BATTERY TO FAIL PREMATURELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR DOES NOT WORK. AS I AM DRIVING IT DETACHES AND SIGNALS TO THE CAR THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR WHILE IT IS NOT. THIS CAUSE THE DOORS TO UNLOCK AND THE LIGHTS TO TURN ON. WHILE I AM DRIVING IT BECOMES DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE DOORS ARE NOT LOCKED. ALSO, AS ONE IS DRIVING AND THE LIGHTS TURN ON UNEXPECTEDLY IT COULD AFFECT ONES VISION. ITS SEEMS IT IS A DEFECT IN DOOR THAT IS DAMAGING THE PART. MANY HAVE HAD THEM REPLACED AND AFTER A WHILE BECOMES DEFECTIVE ONCE AGAIN.
I WAS DRIVING TO WALMART WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DROPPED FROM 45MPH TO LESS THAN 3MPH AND NO MATTER WHAT INPUT WAS GIVEN TO THE GAS PEDAL THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT REACT. THE TACK WAS UNDER 900 AND ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE DASH A WARNING CAME UP LOOKING LIKE A WRENCH. ONCE I PULLED OVER TRIED TO DO A VEHICLE REPORT AND THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO DO A MAINTENANCE CHECK. SHUT OFF ENGINE AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE; NO PROBLEMS RESTARTING THE VEHICLE AND NO MEMORIES OF WHY THE ENGINE DID WHAT IT DID (CALLED "LIMP HOME STATUS"). THERE IS ALSO NO MEMORY WITHIN THE PCM ABOUT THE VEHICLE GOING INTO THIS MODE OR WHY.THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS IF I WAS ON A HIGH WAY. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALS HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THIS HAPPENING; ALL WITH SAME RESOLUTION. THE VEHICLE HAS NO IDEA WHY IT WENT INTO LIMP HOME AND NO MEMORY OF THAT STATUS AFTER RESTART.
DOOR AJAR PROBLEM. DOOR AJAR ALARM WILL NOT SHUT OFF AND THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON ALONG WITH INTERIOR LIGHTS.
ITS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE HAD THE SENSOR IN THE DRIVER DOOR FAIL, THE LIGHTS ON THE VEHCILE STAY ON, BOTH INTERIOR AND DRIVING LAPS, WHICH WILL ALLOW THE BATTERY TO DRAIN, WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED I GET THE DOOR AJAR CHIME PLUS A DASH NOTICE THAT A DOOR IS AJAR, BUT THE REALL KICKER IS IT BLACKS OUT THE REST OF THE DASH TO WHERE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, CANNOT READ SPEED OR RPM ALONG WITH THE OTHER INFORMATION. I AM CONCERNED THAT ONCE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY THIS WILL BE A COSTLY AND TIME CONSUMING PROBLEM. THIS ITEM NEED A BE PART OF A RECALL.
I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE IN A PARKING STRUCTURE AND LOST ALL POWER. I TRIED TO RESTART IT, NO LUCK. VEHICLE TURNED BACK ON AFTER 2ND ATTEMPT TO RESTART AND SEEMED FINE. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO DOWNTOWN FORD IN SACRAMENTO, CA WHO SAID THE ISSUE "MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE WIRING PANEL" AND CLAIMED TO FIX IT. SECOND INCIDENT: AUGUST 2015 (MILEAGE: 35,755) VEHICLE WAS AGAIN IN A PARKING STRUCTURE AND LOST ALL POWER. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO FOLSOM LAKE FORD IN FOLSOM, CA WHERE THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG AFTER THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR ALMOST 2 WEEKS. I WAS TOLD "MAYBE RADIO INTERFERENCE" CAUSED THE PROBLEM OR MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE I WAS IN A CEMENT PARKING STRUCTURE. I PARK IN THIS SAME PARKING STRUCTURE MONDAY - FRIDAY AND THIS ISSUE DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERYDAY SO THE LOCATION IS NOT A FACTOR. THE VEHICLE LOOSES ALL POWER RANDOMLY SO I FEAR THAT WHEN I AM ON A FREEWAY OR TRAVELING ON A CURVY ROAD AND EXPERIENCE THIS CATASTROPHIC FAILURE, IT COULD CAUSE A FATAL CRASH. A CASE NUMBER CAS7689216 WAS OPENED BECAUSE WE TOLD FORD THAT I REFUSE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. FORD'S CSM CONTACTED BOTH ME AND MY HUSBAND AND REQUESTED THAT WE CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE UNSAFE VEHICLE AND HAVE FORD INSTALL A MONITORING DEVICE SO THAT THEY CAN DETERMINE THE CAUSE THE NEXT TIME THIS HAPPENS. I EXPRESSED THAT THIS IS NOT A RISK I AM WILLING TO TAKE BECAUSE OUR LIVES MATTER. SECOND OPTION IS TO TURN OVER THE VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND PAY FOR THEIR TECHNICIANS TO PERFORMED "A LONG TEST DRIVE" WHICH WOULD INCUR POSSIBLY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN SERVICE HOURS AND FUEL. NOT SURE WHY THE CONSUMER WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO FIX A LEMON VEHICLE. THIRD OPTION GIVEN BY THE CSM WAS TO HAVE BBB BUY BACK THE VEHICLE WHICH DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE AN ACTUAL OPTION AVAILABLE THROUGH BBB. FORD'S CSM TOLD ME "IF WE CANNOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM, THEN THERE IS NO PROBLEM."
DOOR AJAR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS SHUT. THE LIGHTS STAY ON AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK.
I WAS DRIVING MY FRIEND AND HER 9YR OLD TO THE STORE, MY DOOR LOCK SENSOR WAS NOT WORKING AND SAID DOOR AJAR SO I WAS UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS IN DRIVE I TRIED AND THEY WHOULD JUST UNLOCK. MY FRIENDS CHILD WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE I WAS GOING 45MPH SHE COULD HAVE FELL OUT. THIS DOOR AJAR PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING OFF. THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND IM UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR USED SO ITS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS A HUGE SAFTEY ISSUE AND I GUESS AFTER READING THE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE THAT NOTHING IS GOING TO BE DONE UNTILL THERE IS A DEATH INSTEAD OF TRYING TO AVOID ONE. ALSO I HEARD THE POLICE VERSION OF THE EXPLORER HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND FORD RECALLED IT RIGHT AWAY WHY NOT THE CONSUMER IT SEEMS LIKE THEY DONT CARE ABOUT THE CONSUMERS SAFETY. PLEASE HELP BEFORE SOMEONE ACTULLY GETS HURT.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION APPEARS ON THE DASHBOARD, ALTHOUGH THE DRIVER DOOR IS SHUT. WHILE DRIVING, THE NOTICE CONTINUES TO BEEP AND ALERTS THE DRIVER TO PUT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK WHICH IS CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE OF DRIVER DISTRACTION. WHILE DRIVING, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHICH CAUSES A ANOTHER SAFETY HAZARD. IN ADDITION TO THESE BEING A SAFETY CONCERN, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT SHUT OFF. NOW I AM CONCERNED THAT I MAY GET STRANDED SOMEWHERE WITH A DEAD BATTERY. MY VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW, IS NOW 2 1/2 YEARS OLD WITH ONLY 34,000 MILES AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THEY COULD GET ME AN APPOINTMENT 5 DAYS LATER. THIS WAS NOT ACCEPTABLE AND NOW THEY ARE GETTING ME IN THE FOLLOWING DAY.
THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR IS ACTIVE WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. IT WILL REMAIN SAYING AJAR AFTER MULTIPLE (30+) TRIES TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR BEFORE IT RIGHTS ITSELF. THIS HAS BECAME DANGEROUS AS DURING NIGHT TIME THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND IMPAIRS DRIVERS ABILITY TO SEE SURROUNDINGS. ALSO, SINCE THIS ISSUE BECOMES IRRITATING, IT CAUSES THE DRIVER TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING, IN HOPES THE SENSOR WILL CORRECT ITSELF. DUE TO THESE ISSUE I EXPECT FORD TO WARRANTY THE DOOR SWITCH SENSOR FOR A MORE RELIABLE DESIGN.
WHILE DRIVING, MY CAR MADE AN ALERT THAT THE LEFT FRONT (DRIVER'S) DOOR WAS AJAR ALTHOUGH IT DID NOT SEEM TO BE. I STOPPED AT THE NEXT LIGHT AND RECLOSED THE DOOR YET THE ALERT DID NOT GO AWAY UNTIL THE DOOR WAS CLOSED AGGRESSIVELY A COUPLE OF TIMES. SINCE THAT INITIAL INCIDENT, THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES AND HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT THAT THE ALERT REMAINS ON AT ALL TIMES. AFTER TRACKING DOWN THE PROBLEM MYSELF I DISCOVERED THAT THE PROBLEM IS PRIMARILY DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW IN THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR. AFTER CONSULTING WITH A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND AN INTERNET SEARCH, IT'S BEEN DISCOVERED THIS IS A PERSISTENT PROBLEM WITH THE FORD EDGE AND MANY OTHER FORD MODEL VEHICLES WHICH USE THIS SAME PART AND ALWAYS THE DRIVER'S DOOR (POTENTIALLY BECAUSE IT'S THE MOST USED). THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED DUE TO THE FOLLOWING: 1) THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CREATES A NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD; 2) THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN SITTING IN A PUBLIC AREA AT NIGHT; 3) THE FALSE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL PREVENTS THE DRIVER FROM RECOGNIZING A TRUE DOOR AJAR SITUATION; 4) THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK EITHER WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE CONTACT ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND CLOSED THE DOOR, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATED THAT THE DRIVER DOOR WAS NOT LOCKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 80 MPH, THE TRACKING SYSTEM SHUTDOWN WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BECAME INOPERABLE. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT WINDOWS FAILED TO OPERATE, THE VEHICLE DOOR LOCKS FAILED TO UNLOCK AND THE VENTILATION SYSTEM EMITTED HOT AIR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WRONG COMPUTER SOFTWARE WAS DOWNLOADED TO THE VEHICLE AND THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPGRADED TO THE CORRECT SOFTWARE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
LEFT REAR DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON,INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON MAKING IT HAZARDOUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT, DOORS DO NOT AUTO LOCK!
WHEN CLOSING THE DRIVERS DOOR THE DOME LIGHTS, WARNING BUZZER AND AJAR INDICATOR LIGHT STAYS ON. THESE CONDITIONS REMAIN CONSTANT DURING THE DRIVE. SUSPECT THE DOOR SWITCH IS EITHER STUCK OR DEFECTIVE. PERIODICALLY THE WARNING LIGHT GOES OFF BUT THEN COMES BACK ON DURING THE DRIVE.
ALTHOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND LATCHED THE SENSOR DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY AND REPORTS THE DOOR IS STILL AJAR. THERE IS NO APPARENT OVERRIDE FOR THIS WHICH CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON AND DOES NOT ALLOW THE DOORS TO LOCK.
I PURCHASED A 2013 FORD EDGE IN APRIL 2013, DRIVING FOR TWO YEARS WITH NO PROBLEMS. ON SEPTEMBER 8, 2015 DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 65 MPH THE WRENCH SYMBOL APPEARED ON THE DASH BOARD, A SECOND LATER, THE VEHICLE DECREASED FROM 65 MPH TO 0 MPH, SITTING ON THE INTERSTATE WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC IN THE MIDDLE LANE FOR ABOUT FIVE MINUTES WITH VEHICLE STILL RUNNING VERY LOW, I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE, WAS ASKED TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE THERE. AS OF SEPTEMBER 12TH THE VEHICLE IS STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP, WAITING TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THIS SITUATION IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AND OTHERS WHO MAY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THANK GOD I DID NOT GET REAR ENDED ON THE INTERSTATE OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THANK YOU *TR
WITH ALL DOORS CLOSED THE DRIVERS SIDE LOCKING MECHANISM FAILED CAUSING THE CABIN LIGHTS TO COME ON AND AND THE SYSTEM TO START RINGING. WHEN THE CABIN LIGHTS CAME ON THEY CAUSED TEMP BLINDNESS AND I SWERVED ALMOST HITTING PEDESTRIANS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD ALSO ALL DOORS UNLOCKED WHEN THIS HAPPENED I FEAR SPMEONE WITH CHILDREN WOULD FIND THIS ALARMING DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEIR CHILDREN COULD EASILY OPEN THE DOOR BECAUSE OF THE DOORS BEING UNLOCKED. AFTER MY INCIDENT I HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR MULTIABLE TIMES FOR IT TO FINALLY WORK SOMETIMES SLAMMING IT WHICH COULD CAUSE MY WINDOW TO SHATTER BUT ITS THE ONLY WAY IT WORKS. I FEEL THAT FORD HAS PUT A SUB PAR LATCH ON THESE CARS AND HAVE LOOKED UP ONLINE TO SEE IF I WAS THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND OUT THAT 1 OUT OF FIVE EDGE OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I TRIED CONTACTING FORD THEY JUST ADVISE ME TO GO TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHICH I DID BUT I DIDNT HAVE THE $400 REQUIRED TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED AT THE GET GO. I MOTION FOR A RECALL ON THIS PART.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DOOR AJAR LIGHT ILLUMINATED CAUSING THE DOORS NOT TO BE ABLE TO LOCK OR UNLOCK AUTOMATICALLY. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ALSO REMAINED ILLUMINATED, CAUSING THE BATTERY TO FAIL PREMATURELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE A FAILURE CODE WAS LOCATED AT THE REAR DOOR LOCKS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.
MY WIFE AND I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME COMPLAINT AS MANY OTHERS IN NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK DOORS, AND WITH DOME LIGHTS COMING ON AS A RESULT OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATED COMING ON EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS PROPERLY SHUT. WE CONSIDER THESE ISSUES TO ADVERSELY AFFECT ATTENTION TO SAFE DRIVING.
2013 FORD EDGE WITH 30,000 MILES ON IT. DOOR AJAR ALARM AND LIGHT COME ON AFTER VEHICLE IS UNDERWAY. OVERHEAD LIGHTS COME ON BLINDING DRIVER AT NIGHT. LIGHTS AND SWITCH REMAIN ON DESPITE REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO SLAM DOOR WHILE DRIVING. SMELL OF GASOLINE WHILE IDLING INDICATES FUEL LEAKING FROM SYSTEM POSING FIRE HAZARD. DEFECTIVE PARTS CREATE DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR DRIVER AND PASSENGERS.
THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED: I WAS PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC, WHEN THE CAR PRETTY WELL JUST SHUT DOWN. IT DID NOT GO INTO LIMP MODE. I WAS STOPPED RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE WAS SHAKING VIOLENTLY WITH NO POWER AT ALL. I WAS UNABLE TO MOVE. THANKFULLY THERE WERE NO ONCOMING VEHICLES AT THIS TIME. I HAD TO SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT, AND IT WENT LIKE NOTHING EVER HAPPENED. UNFORTUNATELY ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS AND THE SUCH WENT OFF ON RESTART. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE FORD HOUSE HERE. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND THE COMPUTER DID NOT HAVE ANY ERROR CODES. SO THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. AT THIS TIME IT DID IT HIGHLY INTERMITTENTLY AND FAR BETWEEN EACH TIME. SO IT WENT ON LIKE THAT FOR ABOUT THE LAST YEAR. IT GOT TO THE POINT THOUGH YOU COULDNT DRIVE ANYWHERE WITH OUT IT HAPPENING. I WOULDN'T EVEN LET MY WIFE DRIVE THE CAR, DUE TO THIS ISSUE OR MY KIDS TO RIDE IN IT. RECENTLY IT STARTED DOING IT ALOT MORE OFTEN. SO, FINALLY I COULD TAKE IT TO THE FORD HOUSE AND THEY COULD REPLICATE IT. TOOK IT OVER TO THE SHOP THIS MORNING, DROVE 15 MILES AND THE CAR SHUT DOWN 7 TIMES IN TRAFFIC. FINALLY AFTER A YEAR AND A HALF OF BEING UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE, IT DID IT WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING IT. THE THROTTLE BODY WAS THE CULPRIT. I KNEW IT, THEY KNEW IT, ALL ALONG AND REFUSED TO FIX IT. NOW THEY HAD TO FIX IT. FIGURED IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THROTTLE BODY FAILURES. NOPE, I HAD TO SHELL OUT $600 FOR A PART THAT FORD AND THE NHTSA KNEW WAS A BAD PART.
DOOR SENSOR...TOOK IT IN TO FORD AND THEY FIXED IT...BUT NOW THE PROBLEM IS BACK AND MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF FORD PRODUCTS. THIS HAS TO STOP!!!!
WHEN MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS CLOSED, THE DOOR OPEN SENSOR CHIMES & THE DOOR OPEN INDICATOR IS LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD. IF I SILENCE IT, THE LIGHT REMAINS ON AND ANYTIME I COME TO A STOP AND MY FOOT IS REMOVED FROM THE BRAKE, THE ALARMS START CHIMING AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 10/3/14 FOR THIS ISSUE AS WELL AS TWO OTHER ISSUE, ONE OF WHICH IS PART OF THE DOOR PANEL POPPING APART. WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK, THE PROBLEM NO LONGER EXISTED. FAST FORWARD TO THIS LAST MONTH. THE DOOR WAS AGAIN BECOMING AN ISSUE. MEANING, THE PROBLEM EXISTED EVERY TIME I CLOSED MY DOOR BUT IF I KEPT CLOSING AND OPENING THE DOOR, EVENTUALLY AFTER 5-6 TIMES, THE CAR WOULD REGISTER THE DOOR AS CLOSED. I MADE AN APT TELLING THE SERVICE GUY THAT I WAS HAVING THE PROBLEM AGAIN AND WE MADE AN APT. I DROPPED OFF MY CAR YESTERDAY AT 3:30. WE GOT A CALL AT 4 PM STATING OUR CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AS WE ARE OVER OUR 36,000 MILEAGE LIMIT (WE ARE AT 39,000). I REMINDED HIM IT WAS COVERED BECAUSE THE ISSUE WAS REPORTED LAST YEAR WHEN THEY FIXED IT. HE (SAM) TOLD ME THAT HE HAD GONE THROUGH MY INVOICES AND THERE IS NO RECORD OF THIS WORK BEING DONE. I THEN SAID MAYBE THEY FIXED IT AND FORGOT TO WRITE IT DOWN. I WAS TOLD NO THAT COULD NOT HAPPEN. I SAID THEY HAD TO TAKE THE DOOR PANEL OFF FOR THE OTHER ISSUE AND I WAS TOLD THAT WAS NOWHERE NEAR THE SENSOR. I WENT TO THE PARTS COUNTER AND WAS TOLD THAT INDEED, THE SENSOR IS ON THE EDGE OF THE DOOR AND YOU WOULD NEED TO REMOVE THE PANEL TO GET TO IT. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER IT. I THEN INFORMED THEM OF HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE SO IT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT A WEAR AND TEAR OR PERSONAL MISTREATMENT ISSUE AND THAT FORD SHOULD NOT BE SHIRKING THEIR RESPONSIBILITY AND I WAS TOLD MY CAR WAS BEING BROUGHT AROUND. UGH. SO IT IS STILL NOT FIXED AND I AM EXPECTED TO COME OUT OF POCKET TO FIX IT. I CAN TELL YOU THIS.
WRENCH LIGHT COME ON REFER TO MANUAL MY CAR START LOSING POWER IN MIDDLE OF ROAD I PULL ON SIDE OF ROAD TURN CAR OFF WHEN I START CAR AGAIN LIGHT WAS GONE AND MY CAR WAS OK CHECK MANUAL IT SAY POWER TRAIN MALEFACTIONS CALL DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME THEY CAN'T DO NOTHING BECAUSE LIGHT IS NOT ON SO BASIC I NEED TO DRIVE CAR THAT CAN STOP FROM WORKING ANY TIME AND GET IN ACCIDENT BECAUSE DEALERSHIP DON'T WONT TO DO ANYTHING IF LIGHT IS NOT ON BUT WHEN LIGHT IS ON MY CAR IS NOT DRIVABLE
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK.
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE DEFROSTER BECAME INOPERABLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON ONE OCCASION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONER MODULE HAD TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.
AROUND THE END OF AUGUST 2015 THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE DOOR IS CLOSED BUT THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR CONTINUES TO SHOW THE DOOR IS NOT CLOSED. IT APPEARS THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ON LINE WITH THE SAME LATCH/SENSOR PROBLEM ON FORD PRODUCTS. THIS IS VERY ANNOYING IN ADDITION TO A SAFETY ISSUE. ARE THERE ANY RECALL NOTICES FROM FORD CONCERNING THIS ISSUE?
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING CAUSING MULTIPLE PROBLEMS. DOORS DON'T LOCK AUTOMATICALLY WHEN IN MOTION. IT CAUSES CABIN LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON ONCE DRIVING LIGHTS ARE ON CREATING VISIBILITY ISSUES. THIS ALSO CAUSES SOME OF THE DOOR LOCKING OPTIONS TO MALFUNCTION. WHEN DRIVING OR STOPPED IT GENERATES FALSE ALARMS OR WARNINGS.
THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE FOR THIS PROBLEM: THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING KEEPS COMING ON. I HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO SHUT OFF. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I AM DRIVING THE CAR. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH FORD DOORS.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR FAILS TO RECOGNIZE CLOSED DOOR. CONSEQUENTLY, INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND DOORS DON'T LOCK. MULTIPLE CLOSINGS OF THE DOOR SOMETIMES WILL TRIGGER THE SWITCH.
APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS AGO MY DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR WARNING STARTED COMING ON WHEN I WOULD CLOSE THE DOOR. I HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THE SENSOR TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE DOOR IS IN FACT SHUT (IT HAS TAKEN UP TO 10X). THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN THIS IS HAPPENING, SO I CANNOT DRIVE AT NIGHT UNTIL I GET THE SENSOR TO RECOGNIZE THE DOOR IS SHUT. A FEW TIMES THE WARNING AND DOME LIGHTS HAVE COME ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING.
I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THERE WAS A SLIGHT JOLT.THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST ALL ACCELERATION. WHEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS NOTHING WHAT HAPPENING. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. IN PARK THE VEHICLE IDLED VERY ROUGH. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND MOMENTS I TRIED TO TURN THE VEHICLE AND IT TOOK ABOUT 5 SECONDS FOR THE VEHICLE TO TURN OVER, BUT WHEN IT DID TURN ON THE WARNING LIGHT WAS GONE AND THE GAS PEDAL WORKED. WHEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS THE RPM'S WENT UP. I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AND IT WORKED NORMAL. I'VE READ A ABOUT 100 REVIEWS FROM THREE DIFFERENT WEBSITES FROM PEOPLE WHO THIS SAME THING HAS HAPPENED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A INHERIT AND COMMON PROBLEM.
MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AFTER CLOSING ALL DOORS WHEN ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED. EVEN AFTER SLAMMING THE DOORS IT STAYS ON. DEALERSHIP DOESN'T KNOW WHY THAT HAPPENED AND SAID HAS TO REPLACE ENTIRE SENSOR.
AS WITH MANY OTHER EDGE OWNERS, THE DOOR SENSOR CONTINUES TO MALFUNCTION. NUMEROUS INCIDENTS ARE REPORTED AND DISCUSSED ONLINE. THE "DOOR OPEN" INDICATOR LIGHTS UP, INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND THE ALARM CANNOT BE ACTIVATED. MY DEALER FIRST WANTED TO CHARGE ME TO REPAIR; THEN, REPAIRED IT AT NO COST, AFTER I WROTE A LETTER TO THE SENIOR VP AND SERVICE MANAGER. THIS WAS ON 1/5/15; WHEN THE TECH REPORTEDLY CLEANED THE SENSOR. NOW, IT'S ABOUT SEVEN MONTHS LATER AND THE PROBLEM HAS STARTED AGAIN AND LIKE MANY OTHERS, I AM EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED. A RECALL SHOULD BE IN ORDER. PLEASE HELP ME AND THE MANY OTHER UNHAPPY AND CONCERNED OWNERS.
"DOOR AJAR" SIGN WILL NOT GO OFF AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO SHUT THE DOOR PROPERLY. THE SIGN STAYS ON DURING A DRIVE WITH SEVERAL ALERTS TO STOP THE CAR, "SHIFT TO PARK" AND SHUT THE DOOR. ALSO, WHEN YOU TRY TO LOCK THE DOOR MANUALLY, THE SYSTEM STILL THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN AND WILL NOT LOCK. THIS IS A ISSUE OF SAFETY FOR THE DRIVER, AND PASSENGERS (ESPECIALLY CHILDREN) IF THEIR DOOR CANNOT BE PROPERLY LOCKED. WHEN THIS FIRST STARTED HAPPENING THE SIGN WOULD GO OFF AFTER 3-5 ATTEMPTS. NOW AFTER 10 DAYS OF HAVING THIS ISSUE, THIS SIGN WILL NOT GO OFF AT ALL. AS WELL AS THE CABIN LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, DRAINING THE BATTERY (EVEN IF THE CAR IS NOT TURNED ON). FINALLY, I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND THE SPRING IS BROKEN INSIDE THE DOOR, THE SAME ISSUE WITH OTHER FORD BRANDS THEY HAVE ALREADY RECALLED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE FOR TRANSPORTING CHILDREN DUE TO THE SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK. I HOPE THIS ISSUE IS TAKEN UNDER SERIOUS CONSIDERATION SINCE THIS IS CLEARLY A ISSUE FOR THE 2013 FORD EDGE AS MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AS WELL.
DOOR AJAR WARNING FOR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR CONTINUES TO ACT LIKE DOOR IS AJAR EVEN DOOR IS SHUT. CAUSES INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON AND CHIME WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED.
ON AUGUST 8TH, 2015 AT ABOUT 4:45 PM, I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN AND MY VEHICLE STOPPED AND LOST ALL POWER. MESSAGE I RECEIVED WAS "NO OIL TO ENGINE". I TRIED TO START MY 2013 EDGE BUT HAD NO LUCK. I CALLED ROAD ASSISTANCE FOR A TOW TRUCK AND THE VEHICLE WENT TO THE MANKATO FORD DEALERSHIP. I GOT THE VEHICLE BACK ON AUGUST 11TH AND WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE CHECKED OUT AND NO PROBLEMS WERE FOUND. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND I DO WISH FORD WOULD DO A RECALL OF THE EDGE AND ESCAPES. IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME AND A VEHICLE WILL STOP AND GET HIT BY A SEMI AND SOMEONE WILL BE KILLED AS A RESULT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT FOR THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,507.
THE VEHICLE STALLED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND WOULD NOT MOVE EVEN THOUGH THE ENGINE WAS IDLING ROUGHLY. THE CHECK ENGINE WRENCH WAS ILLUMINATED. AFTER MANAGING TO FINALLY GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT BEING HIT, TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF, WAITED FOR APPROXIMATELY FIVE MINUTES AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE THEN RAN FINE AND THE WRENCH LIGHT WENT OUT. THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. EACH TIME I WENT TO THE DEALER BUT NO CODE WAS STORED IN THE COMPUTER. FINALLY THE DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT REPEATED. DEALER SAID IT WAS A KNOW PROBLEM WHICH IS WHY THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO STORED ENGINE CODE AFTER REPEATED INCIDENTS. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY DEADLY PROBLEM IF IT HAPPENS ON THE INTERSTATE!
THIS INCIDENT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES IN THE PAST MONTH AND A HALF. MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF AND I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE STEERING OR SPEED. WHEN I RESTART MY CAR, IT TURNS ON. THERE HAVEN'T BEEN ANY CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS OR OTHER NOTIFICATIONS UNTIL TODAY WHEN IT HAPPENED FOR THE FOURTH TIME AND THE LOW OIL PRESSURE INDICATOR CAME ON AND IN THE INDICATOR BOX A WRENCH IS NOW DISPLAYED. THE FIRST INCIDENT I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT INTO TRAFFIC WHEN IT HAPPENED. THE SECOND INCIDENT I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT. THE THIRD INCIDENT I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE AND THE CAR JUST SHUT DOWN AND THIS FINAL INCIDENT I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH AND IN TRAFFIC, THE CAR JUST SHUT DOWN. IN ALL INSTANCES THE CAR STARTED BACK UP BUT IF THIS HAD HAPPENED IN ANY INSTANCE THAT I WAS GOING FASTER OR CROSSING AN INTERSECTION, I FEAR I WOULD BE KILLED OR INJURED. I HAVE SEEN THAT THERE ARE OTHER OWNERS HAVING THE SAME COMPLAINT AND I JUST FEAR THAT SOMEONE WILL DIE FROM THIS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ERRONEOUSLY DISPLAYED INDICATING THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS NOT SECURED. WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE INTERIOR CEILING LIGHT WOULD REMAIN ON AND THE DOORS WOULD UNLOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR FAILED TO CLOSE OR LOCK, WHICH CAUSED THE INTERIOR LIGHTING TO REMAIN ON AND DRAIN THE BATTERY. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT NO WARNING INDICATORS WERE ILLUMINATED PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.
RIGHT BEFORE OUR 3 YEAR WARRANTY EXPIRED THE "DRIVERS DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. WE CHECKED IT OUT AND OTHER ITEMS AND ALL SEEMED TO BE OK. ONE OR TWO DAYS LATER IT CAME ON AGAIN AND CLEARED WHEN WE SHUT THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES. NOW 8 DAYS OUT OF WARRANTY IT SEEMS TO COME ON ALMOST ALL THE TIME AND WON'T CLEAR. ALSO, THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON TOO. I CALLED THE DEALER AND SAID IT WOULD COST ME $125 BUCKS TO DIAGNOSE PLUS REPAIR. HE SAID I COULD CALL FORD. I CALLED FORD AND SPOKE TO KEVIN WHO CREATED CASE # CAS7689552, BUT GOT DISCONNECTED. HIS STATEMENT WAS TO BRING IT IN TO A DEALER AND THEN THEY WOULD DECIDE WHAT THEY WOULD DO FOR ME AFTER INSPECTION. I REALLY THOUGHT FORD WOULD JUST FIX THIS. I THEN CALLED BACK AND SPOKE TO KENDRA WHO WAS NICE BUT SAME THING. I ASKED HER WHAT SHE THOUGHT I COULD EXPECT AND SHE SAID IN THE BEST CASE I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A PORTION OF THE BILL. I LOOKED ONLINE AND SAW ONE GUY TAKE THE WHOLE DOOR OFF TO FIX AND ANOTHER WHO CLEANED FOR A TEMP FIX. THERE WERE A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE REPORTING SAME PROBLEM. THIS HAS TO BE AN ENGINEERING FLAW AND FORD KNOWS THIS. IT IS ALSO UNSAFE TO DRIVE AFTER DARK WITH YOUR INSIDE DOME LIGHTS ON AND YOUR DOOR CHIMING. PLEASE GET A RECALL ON THIS! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO YET BUT I CANNOT AFFORD A $500 REPAIR BILL ON SOMETHING SO STUPID AS THIS. SHAME ON FORD.
THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR IS FAULTY RESULTING IN THE DOOR AJAR ALERT STAYING ON CONSTANTLY, EVEN WHEN ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO BE LOCKED WHILE DRIVING AND INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON FOR A LONG TIME AFTER VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF DUE TO SENSOR ISSUE, THUS DRAINING THE BATTERY.
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE I SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION AND STALLED. I HAD TO GET IT REPLACED COSTING 800. IF CONDITIONS WOULD OF BEEN DIFFERENT, OTHERS TO INCLUDE MYSELF COULD OF GOTTEN HURT OR KILLED.
LEFT REAR DOOR AJAR WARNING MESSAGE STAYS ON, EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE INTERIOR/DOME LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE DRIVING, EVEN AT NIGHT TIME, SO IT IS HARD TO SEE TO DRIVE. THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AS EVEN AFTER THE CAR IS PARKED AND TURNED OFF. THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHILE WE ARE INSIDE OUR VEHICLE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF, AND MY GROWING FAMILY. FOR ONE, NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS TO KEEP OURSELVES PROTECTED AND SAFE INSIDE OUR VEHICLE HAS ME VERY CONCERNED. THIS VEHICLE IS SUPPOSE TO BE OUR FAMILY CAR THAT I FEEL SAFE AND SECURE IN WITH MY SPOUSE AND CHILDREN. ALSO, DRIVING AT NIGHT WHILE THE DOME LIGHTS CONTINUE TO STAY ON PREVENTS ME FROM SEEING EVERYTHING PROPERLY AT NIGHT. I SERIOUSLY FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE THIS WAY. THIS IS OUR FAMILY CAR THAT NEEDS THIS DOOR LATCHED REPLACED DUE TO A FAULTY LATCH. PLEASE, SEND OUT THE RECALL. HELP ME PROTECT MY FAMILY AND THOSE AROUND ME FROM ANY ACCIDENTS THAT MAY HAPPEN DUE TO THIS FAULTY DOOR LATCH. I HOPE THIS REACHES SOME ONE WHO CAN HELP PREVENT MY FAMILY FROM ANY ACCIDENTS, AND WHO WILL HELP OTHERS STAY SAFE THAT HAVE THIS VEHICLE PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR READING MY CRY FOR HELP. *TR....UPDATED 10-27-15 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS LOCKED. THE ALARM KEPT GOING OFF, BECAUSE THE SYSTEM WAS DETECTING THE LEFT REAR DOOR WAS OPENED. ALSO, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS KEPT COMING ON FOR A WHILE, AND EVENTUALLY THEY WENT OUT. THEY WOULD COME ON PERIODICALLY SINCE THE SYSTEM SENSED THE LEFT REAR DOOR WAS AJAR. UPDATED 01/15/16.*JB
THE DOOR LOCK SENSOR HAS BECOME DEFECTIVE ON THE CAR CAUSING THE DOOR AJAR WARNING TO STAY ON AT ALL TIMES. BEING A NURSE, I GO TO WORK VERY EARLY AND TRAVEL FOR 30 MILES EACH WAY. WHEN THIS ISN'T SENSOR ISN'T WORKING THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION AND THERE IS A CONSTANT DINGING NOISE TO CLOSE THE DOOR AGAIN EVERY TIME I STOP. DRIVING TO DOWNTOWN DALLAS IS VERY UNSAFE IN THE MY CAR NOW. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON FOR MILES AND IT IS HARD TO DRIVE IN THE DARK WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON. TWO DEALERSHIPS SAY THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON THE FORD EDGE AND THEY HAVE RECEIVED BULLETINS ON THE PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL. THEY SAY THE SENSOR NEEDS TO BE TAKEN OUT AND CLEANED, IT IS NOT BROKEN THEREFORE THE WARRANTY NOR EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER THE $400 REPAIR. PLEASE HELP MAKE FORD FIX THIS PROBLEM BY ISSUING A RECALL. ...UPDATED 10/29/15*BF
DOOR AJAR AND LATCH ISSUE - THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN I CLOSE MY DOOR AND THEN INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON. I THEN AM UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHILE BEING IN THE VEHICLE AND I BELIEVE THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH A FAULTY LATCH. WHEN I MOVE THE LATCH WITH MY FINGERS, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL TEMPORARILY GO OFF BUT SOMETIMES WILL EVEN COME BACK ON WHILE MY CAR IS IN MOTION. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN APRIL AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED.
EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, THE WRENCH ICON ILLUMINATED, NO THROTTLE RESPONSE, ENGINE WAS RUNNING, AIR CONDITIONING AND POWER STEERING REMAINED ACTIVE. TURNED ONTO A SIDE ROAD AND COASTED TO A STOP. ONCE STOPPED, SHIFTED TO PARK, TRIED TO REV THE ENGINE, NO RESPONSE. SHIFTED TO PARK. TURNED THE IGNITION OFF, RESTARTED, DROVE NORMALLY FOR THE REST OF THE DAY.... VERY DANGEROUS IF THIS HAPPENS IN TRAFFIC....UPDATED 09/22/15 *BF
DATE ABOVE IS FIRST ALERT. HAPPENS EVERYDAY NOW. DOOR LATCH MECHANISM WILL NOT ENGAGE WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED, AND THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND LIGHTS STAY ON. IT IS DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT WHEN THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE ON AND YOU ARE TRYING TO DRIVE. THEY ONLY GO OUT WHEN CAR IS GOING FORWARD. BIG SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE TOLD FORD ABOUT IT AND HAVE MET MANY OTHERS WITH SAME PROBLEM. THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR THIS SAFETY FEATURE $350. IT SHOULD BE RECALLED SO ALL OWNERS CAN FEEL SAFE WITH THE DOORS CLOSING, LOCKING AND INTERIOR LIGHTS NOT ILLUMINATING WHILE TRYING TO DRIVE. AND THE MOST ANNOYING BEEPING TO ALERT YOU THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 1.5 YEARS. I HAD THEM LUBE AND CLEAN IT ONCE AND IT JUST RETURNED. I DID PAY FOR THAT SERVICE. JUST LOOK AT THE FORD EDGE FORUMS. IT IS HAPPENING TO TOO MANY PEOPLE.
DRIVER DOOR LATCH FAILURE. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND WARNING BEEP.
- DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS SHUT - INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON - UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN VEHICLE - FALSE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL PREVENTS DRIVER FROM KNOWING IF DOOR IS ACTUALLY AJAR
THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR ON DRIVER'S DOOR HAS FAILED 3 TIMES. THE FIRST TIME WAS THE DAY WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP FIXED IT. THE NEXT TIME WAS IN FEBRUARY. NOW IT HAS FAILED AGAIN. AFTER YOU ENTER THE VEHICLE, AND SHUT THE DOOR THE SENSOR STILL READS AS THE DOOR IS OPEN. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OUT, AND WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE ISN'T ACTIVATED.
7/20/15-WHILE TRAVELING IN UPTOWN CHARLOTTE, NC, MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF CAUSING ME TO ENGAGE MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND COAST IN NEUTRAL (IN A VERY HIGH TRAFFIC AREA) TO A NO PARKING ZONE. NO DIAGNOSTIC CODE APPEARED BUT THE WRENCH ICON APPEARED. I RAN AN ONBOARD SYSTEM DIAGNOSTICS AND IT WAS CLEAR. CAR RESTARTED WHEN PUT IN NEUTRAL AND I THEN DROVE IT THE REST OF THE DAY. 7/21/15- APPROXIMATELY 110+ MILES SINCE THE PRIOR DAYS PROBLEM, THE CAR RAN FINE UNTIL THE EVENING WHEN I WAS DRIVING 45 MPH AND CLIMBING A GRADE AROUND A CURVE AND THE CAR JERKED AND SHUT OFF SHOWING THE WRENCH ICON AGAIN. THERE WAS NO SHOULDER TO COAST ONTO AND TURNED ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS, AND PRAYED NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME CAUSING A COLLISION. AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS THE CAR RESTARTED IN THE PARK POSITION JUST AS A VAN SWERVED TO MISS ME IN THE NO PASSING ZONE WHERE THE CAR FAILED. IT WAS AFTER HOURS FOR THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THE CAR IS A CERTIFIED PRE OWNED VEHICLE WITH ADDITIONAL WARRANTY. I FILLED OUT THE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM AND LEFT THE CAR WITH THEM UNTIL 7/28/15 AND AUTHORIZED ALLOWING A MECHANIC TO DRIVE IT HOME IF NEEDED AS NO DIAGNOSTIC CODE WAS GENERATED. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE AND THE CAR WAS THEN DROVE LESS THAN 40 MILES WHEN IT STOPPED RUNNING AGAIN 7/29/15 WITHOUT WARNING THE THIRD TIME. FORD CORPORATE HAS REFUSED TO MAKE REPAIRS WITHOUT A CODE AND THE DEALERSHIP DID AS WELL, HOWEVER, SINCE HAVING A FRUSTRATING CONVERSATION 7/29/15 WITH FORD, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD MY HUSBAND THAT THEY WILL REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY AS I REQUESTED LAST WEEK AS THIS HAS RESOLVED THE ISSUE FOR OTHER CONSUMERS.. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS NOTED MANY TIMES BY OTHER CONSUMERS. PLEASE HAVE FORD STAND BEHIND THE SAFETY OF THEIR VEHICLE BEFORE PEOPLE LOSE THEIR LIVES. THIS GIVES NO WARNING AND CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE AT ANYTIME AND FORD'S STANCE IS DANGEROUS. THANK YOU! UPDATED 9/21/15 *LN...UPDATED 10/01/15*BF UPDATED 12/13/2017*CN
AT FIRST I NOTICED THAT EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR BEHIND THE DRIVER WAS PROPERLY SHUT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WAS STILL ON IT WAS FOR A FEW DAYS UNTIL NOW THE INTERIORS LIGHTS NOW WON'T GO OFF WHEN I LEAVE THE CAR AND ACTIVATE THE ALAR.
WHILE COMING OFF AN ON RAMP FROM ONE HIGHWAY TO ANOTHER DOING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH MY 2013 FORD EDGE JERKED, A WRENCH POPPED UP ON MY DASH, AND IT LOST POWER. THE ACCELERATOR DID NOT WORK BUT THE CAR WAS STILL IDLING. LUCKILY I WAS IN THE FAR LEFT LANE AND THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY LANE ON THE LEFT SO I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP. WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN PARK, TURNED IT OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON IT WAS LIKE NOTHING WAS WRONG. THE ACCELERATOR WORKED AND THE WRENCH WAS GONE. HOWEVER, THIS HAVE SINCE HAPPENED TO BE TWO MORE TIMES AND LOWER SPEEDS. BOTH TIMES LUCKILY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME AND WHEN I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON EVERYTHING WORKED. I HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER DRIVERS WHO HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE. IT APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE THROTTLE BODY. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!
WHEN ALL THE CAR DOORS ARE PROPERLY CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON NUMEROUS TIMES, AND THE FREQUENCY HAS INCREASED, CAUSING THE DOORS NOT TO LOCK.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR JAM DOES NOT WORK. LIGHT ON DASHBOARD REMAINS LIT AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED
DOOR AJAR SYMBOL IS ON AND DOOR IS CLOSED. DOORS WILL NOT POWER LOCK MAP LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF
DRIVER SIDE "DOOR AJAR" SENSOR MALFUNCTIONING - RESULTING IN DOORS NOT LOCKING AUTOMATICALLY, WARNING ALARM SOUNDING, INTERIOR LIGHTS STAYING ON. HAD REPAIR MADE AT LOCAL FORD DEALER. SAME PROBLEM/SYMPTOMS AGAIN IN MAY, 2015. LOCAL DEALER STATES THAT THERE IS NO RECALL FROM MANUFACTURER THUS FREEING SAID DEALER OF LIABILITY. COMPLAINT FILED WITH FORD MOTOR COMPANY. ONLINE SEARCHES YIELD NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE FORD EDGE.
I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF, I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE WITH CARS FLYING BY. I PUT HAZARDS ON AND SLOWLY MOVED TO THE RIGHT SIDE AND COMPLETELY SHUT OFF THE CAR. I WAS VERY SCARED BEING STUCK ON THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE WITH VEHICLES GOING PAST ME AT 70 MILES AN HOUR AND I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A DEADLY ACCIDENT. I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AND GET OFF THE FREEWAY AND SLOWLY DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP AT 30 MILES AN HOUR. THE DFFECTIVE PART THE DEALER SAID WAS THE THROTTLE BODY, WHICH IS A PART THAT WAS RECALLED ON THE FORD ESCAPE 2009-2013 AND ON THE 2009 - 2013 FORD FUSION 2009-2013 MERCURY MARINER 2009 -2013 MERCURY MILAN. MY CAR IS FORD EDGE 2013 , THE THROTTLE BODY PART IS AN OBVIOUS EXTENSIVE ISSUE WITH FORD.
DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR SENSOR INDICATES DOOR AJAR, PREVENTING OTHER FUNCTIONS OF THE VEHICLE FROM OPERATING NORMALLY, SUCH AS DOME LIGHT TURNING OFF WHILE DRIVING AND AFTER LOCKING DOORS, DOORS WILL NOT REMAIN LOCKED WHILE DRIVING AND OTHER RELATED FUNCTIONS. ISSUES CAUSES A DRAIN ON THE BATTERY UNTIL IT EVENTUALLY LOSES CHARGE, LEAVING DRIVER STRANDED. DOOR AJAR INDICATOR REMAINS ON THE ENTIRE TIME DURING OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE.
THE CAR ALWAYS SAYS THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS AJAR AND THE SHIFT TO PARK MESSAGE SHOWS UP ON THE DASH ALONG WITH THE ENGINE ON MESSAGE. NONE OF THESE MESSAGES GO AWAY. ITS ALWAYS DINGING BECAUSE IT THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN AND THE AUTOMATIC LOCKS DONT WORK. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME I TAKE THIS TO THE GARAGE FOR THE SAME THING. I UNDERSTAND ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND FORD WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL OR FIX THE PROBLEM PROPERLY.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME ALONG WITH THE SHIFT TO PARK AND ENGINE ON MESSAGES. AUTOMATIC LOCKS DONT WORK ANYMORE. THE RADIO SOMETIMES BLANKS COMPLETELT OUT. TAKING IT TO THE GARGE FOR THE THIRD TIME. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE POSTED ONLINE WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS AND FORD WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL OR FIX THE PROBLEM PROPERLY. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE NOW TO MAKE FORD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THERE VEHICLES
I WAS DRIVING MY 2013 FORD EDGE WHEN I WENT TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS EXTREMELY HARD TO PUSH. THE CAR DID NOT WANT TO STOP, IT SLOWED BUT KEPT ROLLING FORWARD WHILE I WAS STOMPING ON THE BRAKES. IT DID IT AGAIN WHEN I WAS TRYING TO PARK AT A RESTAURANT, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STUCK AND I KEPT ROLLING FORWARD TILL THE PEDAL GAVE AND SUNK TO THE FLOOR BOARD AND THE CAR FINALLY JERKED TO A STOP. AFTER THOSE 2 INCIDENTS MY HUSBAND DROVE IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP IN TOWN, WHILE HE WAS DRIVING IT HE ALMOST REAR ENDED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HIM. THE DEALER TESTED THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND IT FAILED. THE DEALER REPLACED THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS THAT THE BRAKES WERE GOING BAD, ALL OF A SUDDEN I COULDN'T STOP MY CAR, I'M REALLY CORNERED THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND THAT I MAY END UP IN AN ACCIDENT.
FAULTY "DOOR AJAR" WARNING DO TO POORLY DESIGNED LATCH ON DOOR.
DRIVER DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION, DOME LIGHTS AND MIRROR LIGHTS STAY ON. COMES ON WHEN DRIVING. DONT ALWAYS KNOW IF THE DOOR IS CLOSED PROPERLY OR NOT. TOOK IT TO DEALER THEY TEMPORILY STOPPED IT, THEN IT STARTED AGAIN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON 90% OF THE TIME WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WHEN YOU SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND EVEN IF YOU REMOVE THE KEYS THE LIGHTS ALL REMAIN ON AS IF YOU HAD THE DOORS OPEN AND RUN THE BATTERY DEAD, ONLY SHOWS DRIVERS DOOR, ALL OTHER DOOR SENSORS ARE FINE! I AM AN AVID FORD OWNER BUT I SEE SO MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE, I HOPE TO SEE A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM OR OUR NEXT VEHICLE MIGHT NOT BE A FORD!
2013 FORD EDGE.DOOR IS SECURELY SHUT AND ENGINE IS RUNNING. HOWEVER, DRIVER DISPLAY SHOWS MESSAGE, "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" AND CHIME IS AUDIBLE. CHIME IS AUDIBLE AT LOW SPEEDS WHICH CAN DISTRACT DRIVER WHEN STOPPING. INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE STARTING TO DRIVE, BUT WILL EVENTUALLY TURN OFF. WHILE DRIVING, DRIVER DISPLAY SHOWS MESSAGE, "SHIFT TO PARK". INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS AND SIDE MIRROR LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN ENGINE IS STOPPED AND DOORS ARE LOCKED.

INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS AND SIDE MIRROR LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN ENGINE IS STOPPED AND DOORS ARE LOCKED.
ONE DAY WHILE DRIVING THE DOOR AJAR ALERT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. WHEN I COULD DO SO, I OPENED AND CLOSED THE DOOR. THE ALERT REMAINED ON. TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AND THEY SAID IT'S THE DOOR AJAR LATCH ASSEMBLY HAS FAILED AND THAT IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM. IT COULD BE FIXED FOR $500. I SAID NO THANK YOU. IT WOULD TAKE ME 5+ TIME OF SLAMMING THE DOOR CLOSED TO GET THE ALERT TO GO OFF. ONCE I WOULD GET THE ALERT OFF, I WOULD ACCESS MY CAR VIA THE PASSENGER SIDE. EVENTUALLY THAT HAS STOPPING WORKING AND THE DOOR AJAR ALERT IS ON CONSTANTLY. WHILE DRIVING, THIS BRINGS UP A "SHIFT TO PARK" ALERT EVERY TIME I CAN TO A STOP. IN ADDITION TO THAT, NOW WHILE DRIVING AND I LOCK THE DOORS FROM INSIDE THE CAR, THEY LOCK AND THEN IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK. ALL 4 DOORS. FURIOUS WITH ALL THE PROBLEMS AND FORD HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR WAS SECURELY CLOSED. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN AFTER DOOR IS SHUT, CAUSING DOME LIGHT TO CONTINUE TO STAY LITE. INFO STATES SHIFT TO PARK WHENEVER COME TO STOP.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE DOORS UNTIL THE WARNING LIGHTS STOPPED ILLUMINATING, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000.
THE DOOR AJAR SWITCH WILL NOT SHUT OFF EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND IT IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT.
THE DOOR SENSOR IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. THE CAR CONTINUES TO INDICATE "DOOR AJAR" ALL THE TIME. THE DOME LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF NOW WHEN I AM DRIVING AT NIGHT AND THE INTERIOR CAR LIGHTS COME ON AT NIGHT WHICH IS DRAINING MY BATTERY. I HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY SINCE IT HAD DIED YESTERDAY.
THE FRONT DOOR LOCK SENSOR DOESN'T WORK. WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT THE SENSOR DOESN'T SENSE THAT THE DOOR IS SHUT, CAUSING THE NOTICE TO DIRECT USER TO SHIFT CAR IN PARK TO SHUT DOOR, WHEN IT'S ALREADY SHUT.
DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED, INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON, INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN VEHICLE.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL SHUT, BUT INSIDE WILL SHOW "AJAR" WITH ALL DOME LIGHTS ON. AFTER NUMEROUS TIMES (20+) OF OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR, IT WILL SOMETIMES FINALLY CLOSE TO STOP SHOWING AJAR AND LIGHTS WILL TURN OFF. IN MY OPINION, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IF DRIVING AT NIGHT AS I'VE EXPERIENCED ALREADY ONCE WITH MY DOOR NOT WILLING TO CLOSE PROPERLY AT NIGHT, AND HAVING TO DRIVE WITH ALL DOME LIGHTS ON (HUGE ISSUE). WENT TO A FORD DEALER THAT SAYS THEY WILL RUN A DIAGNOSTICS TEST TO SEE WHAT'S WRONG, BUT THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ALREADY ON-LINE OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND THIS STILL HASN'T BEEN ADDRESSED BY FORD FOR A RECALL. MANY ARE SAYING THE COSTS ARE FROM $250-$500 FOR REPAIRS TO GET IT FIXED. FOR A 2 YEAR OLD CAR, THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING!
DRIVER DOOR SENSOR DOES NOT SENSE THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS PREVENTS THE OVER HEAD DOME LIGHT FROM SHUTTING OFF, WHICH AT NIGHT MAKING IT HARD TO SEE OUT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THE DOOR LOCKS ALSO WILL NOT STAY LOCKED EVEN IF YOU MANUALLY PUSH DOWN THE INDICATOR. THIS ALLOWS MY CHILDREN TO OPEN THE REAR DOORS AS WE DRIVE DOWN THE STREET. I WAS TOLD TWICE NOW THAT THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AND NOTHING IS BROKEN, SO IT ISNT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR A RECALL.
WOKE UP SUN MORNING OPENED BASEMENT DOOR SMELLED THE ODOR OF GASOLINE OPENED DOOR TO GARAGE HEAVY ODOR OF GASOLINE REMOVED CAR FROM GARAGE SAW DRIPPING OF GASOLINE FROM GAS TANK CALLED FIRE DEPT THEY CAME PUT DOWN GASOLINE ABSORBENT AND SAID SMALL LEEK COMING FROM GAS TANK NOTHING THEY CAN DO TOLD TO CALL TOWING AND REMOVE CAR MON AAA REMOVED CAR AND TOOK TO FORD DEALER WEISLANDER FORD IN POINT PLEASANT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A HOLE IN THE GAS TANK AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY APPROX. $5000 TO HAVE IT FIXED AND IT WOULD TAKE 4 MONTHS BEFORE THEY WOULD RECEIVE THE TANK FROM A FRIEND I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2012 & 2013 FORD EDGE GAS TANKS I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT VIN# WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST AND THE HOLE WAS CAUSED BY ME MY WIFE WHO DRIVES THIS CAR SAID SHE DID NOT HIT ANYTHING I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT IF YOU HIT AN OBJECT ON THE ROAD YOU WOULD ONLY GET A SMALL DRIP FROM THE GAS TANK
WE WERE ON OUR WAY TO TEXAS FROM MISSOURI. AS WE WERE TRAVELING SOUTH ON I35 A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH STATING THAT THE DRIVER'S DOOR WAS AJAR WHEN IT APPEARED TO BE SHUT. IT THEN TOLD US TO SHIFT TO PARK AND SHUT THE DOOR. WE PULLED OVER ON I35 THINKING IT WAS SOMETHING THAT WE NEEDED TO DO FOR SAFETY REASONS. MY WIFE GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND WAS ALMOST HIT BY A CAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. AFTER SHUTTING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES THE WARNING LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OFF AS WELL AS THE DOME LIGHT. BECAUSE OF THE ISSUE THE DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK AND THE ALARM WOULD NOT ARM ITSELF. I HAVE BEEN A LOCAL POLICE OFFICER FOR KCPD FOR 14 YEARS AND HAVE SEEN FAR TOO MANY ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF PEOPLE PULLING OVER ON A HIGHWAY. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND FIXED ON ALL FORD VEHICLES. AFTER OUR TRIP I RESERCHED THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND APPARENTLY ITS HAPPENING ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT FORD MODELS. I SAW COMPLAINT AFTER COMPLAINT BY PEOPLE WHO WERE FORD OWNERS.
DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED, ENGINE ON AND WHILE DRIVING. DOOR LIGHT CONSISTENTLY STAYS ON WHEN DRIVING AND DOOR IS CLOSED. UPDATED 09/09/15*LJ UPDATED 12/9/2015*JS

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100. UPDATED 09/21/15*LJ.
THE DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON THE DASH INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ILLUMINATED EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. THE DOOR NEEDS TO BE SLAMMED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE LIGHT EXTINGUISHES, BUT SOMETIMES WILL NOT GO OUT AT ALL. THIS LEAVES DRIVER WITH AN INSECURE FEELING THE CAR DOOR IS NOT SECURELY CLOSED WHILE DRIVING. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE WIDESPREAD ON THIS MODEL VEHICLE FROM WHAT I READ ON THE INTERNET.
WHEN SITTING AT TRAFFIC LIGHT, BRAKE PEDAL FALLS TO THE FLOOR, VEHICLE IS STILL STOPPED, BUT VERY UNNERVING FEELING. THEY REPLACED BRAKE BOOSTER, AND IT STILL HAPPENS, AND FORD DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO PROBLEM, THAT THIS IS NORMAL
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK AND THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS NOT LOCKED.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.
THE SENSOR ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH FAILED TO DETECT THAT THE DOOR WAS CLOSED IN ORDER TO LOCK THE DOORS. NEED TO SLAM DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO ATTEMPT TO ACTIVATE SENSOR. SOMETIMES WORKS, SOMETIMES DOESN'T WORK. INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHILE DOOR IS PARKED (DRAINING BATTERY) OR WHILE DRIVING, WHICH IS A SAFETY DISTRACTION AT NIGHT. DOORS DO NOT LOCK AND WHEN TRYING TO MANUALLY LOCK, THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKS ALL DOORS - VERY UNSAFE WITH CHILDREN OR ELDERLY IN VEHICLE. FORD WARRANTY EXPIRES AT THE LOW MILEAGE OF 36,000 MILES, SO THEY WILL NOT FIX WITHOUT SPENDING $450.00. THE FORD WARRANTY IS VERY POOR COMPARED TO ALL OTHER VEHICLES. UPDATED 09/03/15*LJ
SECOND TIME I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE: DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR KEEPS COMING ON AGAIN. YOU HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR HARD TO GET IT TO SHUT OFF. IT HAPPENS EVEN WHEN SOME ONE IS EXITING THE PASSENGER DOOR AND THE DRIVERSIDE DOOR AJAR MESSAGE WILL SHOW UP. ENGINE ON MESSAGE ALSO SHOWS UP. YOU CAN CLICK THE OK FOR BOTH MESSAGES BUT THE DOORS DON'T AUTOLOCK WHEN YOU DRIVE. ALSO THE DOME LIGHTS INSIDE THE VEHICLE TAKES A LONG TIME TO SHUT OFF. THE HEADLIGHTS WILL SHUT OFF WHEN YOU SHUT OFF THE CAR BUT THE INSIDE LIGHTS STAYS ON. SOMETIMES I WILL TURN THE CAR BACK ON SO THEY SHUT OFF.
MY CAR ALWAYS SHOW THAT HAS THE DRIVER DOOR OPEN WHEN ITS CLOSE
THE DOOR AGAR SENSOR IS NOT GOING OFF WHEN I SHUT THE DOOR I KEEP HAVING TO SLAM THE DOOR SHUT MULTIPLE TIMES FOR IT TO TURN OFF. WHEN I GET OUT OF MY CAR THE DOOR DOES NOT ALWAYS LATCH AND YOU CAN TELL WHEN YOU LOCK IT. THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN I SHUT MY DOOR. THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN I GET OUT OF MY CAR TELLING ME THAT IT IS STILL OPEN AND WHEN I TRY TO LOCK IT IT MAKES A DOUBLE BEEP SO ITS LIKE ITS NOT LOCKING MY CAR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED, THE PANEL LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AS IF THE DOOR WAS STILL OPEN AND THE CHIME SOUNDED CONSTANTLY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH DOWNHILL, THE BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED. THE BRAKES WERE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.
DOOR AJAR SWITCH IS MALFUNCTIONING. THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY SAY THE DRIVERS DOOR IS AJAR. THIS TYPICALLY HAPPENED WHEN GETTING IN AND OUT OF THE CAR. TODAY IT SAID THE DOOR WAS AJAR RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING.
DRIVER DOOR SENSORY LIGHT "DOOR AJAR." DOOR IS ALWAYS SHUT WHEN IT TRIPS & EVEN PERIODICALLY WHILE DRIVING DOWN ROAD. IT'S BEEN CLEANED REPEATEDLY, SUPPOSEDLY FIXED AT LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP ONCE A FEW MONTHS BACK, & DOING IT AGAIN. CLEANING HASN'T WORKED THIS ROUND EITHER.
DOOR AJAR ALERT ON DASH BOARD REMAINS LIT. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON, THE CAR TO "THINK" THE DOORS ARE NOT ALL CLOSED, AND ISSUES WITH LOCKING THE CAR DOORS. VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE AT NIGHT THE DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON. THERE IS NO WAY TO GET THE LIGHTS TO TURN OFF UNTIL THEY AUTOMATICALLY DIM AFTER APPROXIMATELY 3 MINUTES OF ACTIVE DRIVING. DOME LIGHTS WILL ALWAYS REMAIN ON WHEN IN REVERSE. SEEMS TO BE A GUARANTEED PROBLEM IN ALL FORD EDGE'S, VERY FRUSTRATING. HOPING THIS HELPS TO GET A RECALL AS IT'S QUITE COSTLY TO GET REPAIRED.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR KEEPS STAYING ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT ALL THE WAY. IT TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS OF OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR TO GET IT TO GO OFF. WHILE THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS ON YOU CAN NOT LOCK YOUR DOORS WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE. BECAUSE OF THIS MANUFACTURERS DEFECT IT IS EASY FOR ANYONE TO OPEN THE DOOR AND BE ATTACHED OR CAR JACKED. IF YOU ARE NOT CAREFUL THE LIGHT CAN STAY ON FOR HOURS AND DRAIN YOUR BATTERY. I AM SURE NOTHING WILL GET DONE ABOUT THIS UNTIL SOMEONE IS KILLED OR ATTACHED BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT. ITS A SHAME!!!
THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHT IT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO GET IT TO SWITCH OFF. IF THE WARNING LIGHT IS ON THEN THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND THE DOORS MUST LOCK SO 'WE' I CAN FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE EDGE. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AROUND WITH THE DOORS UNLOCKED THESE DAYS! IT SOMETIMES TAKE MANY MULTIPLE SLAMS OF THE DOOR TO GET IT TO GO OFF AND THE DOOM LIGHT TO ALSO TURN OFF. SOMETIMES THERE IS NO WAY TO GET THE WARNING LIGHT TO TURN OFF (SO THE DOOM LIGHT STAYS ON), WHICH KILLS THE BATTERY. THERE ARE MANY HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF THESE COMPLAINTS ONLINE, SO PLEASE MAKE FORD DO THE RIGHT THINK AND CORRECT THEIR KNOWN PROBLEM! WHEN THE DOOR DOES NOT LATCH THE LOCKS WILL NOT ENGAGE, AN UN-LACHED DOOR IS BAD ENOUGH BUT NOT HAVING A LOCKED DOOR AT SOME RED LIGHTS CAN BE A LITERAL KILLER OR A LITERAL MUGGING!
I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE AND THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR WILL NOT RECOGNIZE WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. I LOOKED AROUND ON THE INTERNET AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG FORD EDGES. IT IS NOT ONLY ANNOYING, BUT IF YOU AREN'T CAREFUL TO CHECK, IT CAN DRAIN YOUR BATTERY AS WELL BECAUSE THE DOME LIGHT WILL REMAIN ON AS THE VEHICLE THINKS THE CAR DOOR IS AJAR. SO FAR FORD ISN'T REPLACING THIS UNDER ANY SORT OF WARRANTY.
MY 2013 FORD EDGE SPORT WITH APPROX 13,500 MILES HAS BEEN DOING THIS NOW FOR ABOUT 2 PLUS MONTHS. WHEN YOU SHIFT INTO PARK AND THEN TURN CAR OFF, IT WILL BEEP AND SAY ON DASH, "SHIFT TO PARK". THE CAR IS IN PARK. IF YOU GET OUT OF THE CAR, YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS. THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO START CAR AGAIN, PUT IN DRIVE AND THEN ALMOST SLAM THE SHIFTER INTO PARK AGAIN. SOMETIMES IT WILL TAKE 2 OR 3 TIMES BEFORE IT WON'T DO THIS. I HAVE DOUBLE CHECKED TO MAKE SURE THERE ISN'T ANYTHING IN THE WAY AND THERE IS NOT. VERY FRUSTRATING. OF COURSE IT DOESN'T DO THIS EVERY TIME, SO I HAVE IT ON VIDEO. GRRRR!!
DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF, EVEN IF DOOR IS CLOSED. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR YEARS WITH THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES. FORD WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE PROBLEM. COST TO REPAIR:$500 AND EVENTUALLY FOUR DOORS:$2000. INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT GO OFF CAUSING PROBLEM AT NIGHT.
DRIVER DOOR AGAR LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON. I HAVE TO REPETITIVELY SLAM MY DOOR FIFTEEN TO TWENTY TIMES FOR LIGHT TO GO OFF. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE INSIDE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND IT IS DRAINING MY BATTERY. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD SINCE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH FORD VEHICLES AND I VOICED MY CONCERN TO THEM AND TOLD THEM THEY NEED TO DO A RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM AND IT SHOULD BE AT FORD'S EXPENSE NOT OWNERS EXPENSE. FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE SAID TO SAVE MY RECEIPT IF THERE IS AN UPCOMING RECALL.
DRIVERS DOOR ALARM KEEPS GOING OFF AFTER SHUTTING DOOR. CAR WON'T LOCK. HAVE TO SLAM DOOR SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT GOES OFF.
THE DOOR AJAR ALARM SOUNDS WHEN THE DRIVER DOOR IS SHUT. AT FIRST I COULD OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR (SOMETIMES NUMEROUS TIMES) AND IT WOULD GO OFF. NOW IT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND THE OVERHEAD LIGHT COMES ON SOMETIMES. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD THAT FORD SHOULD RECALL AND REPAIR.
I WAS DRIVING MY FORD EDGE 2013 ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY THE ENGINE LOST IT'S POWER TO IDLE, LUCKILY I WAS IN A RURAL ROAD AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR IN THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, IN THE FRONT PANEL A YELLOW WRENCH SYMBOL WITH NO MESSAGE APPEARS, I TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND WAIT ABOUT 30 SECONDS THEN I STARTED IT BACK AGAIN AND CONTINUE MY WAY WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM, THE NEXT DAY (YESTERDAY NIGHT) I EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THIS TIME ENTERING IN THE HIGHWAY AT SPEED ABOUT 55 MPH WITH THE SAME RESULTS AS THE DAY BEFORE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR LAST TUESDAY.
THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SWITCH IS MALFUNCTIONING. THE DOOR DOES NOT 'KNOW' IT IS CLOSED. SOMETIMES SLAMMING IT WORKS, SOMETIMES NOT. DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AND THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND THE FIX IS VERY EXPENSIVE. MANY MECHANICS THINK IT SHOULD BE RECALLED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD AN OIL LEAK AND THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL ODOR COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE OIL PAN WAS REPLACED AND THE OIL WAS REPLENISHED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.
WE GOT IN THE CAR TO LEAVE WORK AND, IN THE PARKING LOT, NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES HAD GONE COMPLETELY SOFT. THERE WAS A SLOW HISS WHEN PRESSURE WAS APPLIED. WE WERE ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR TO A SHOP THE NEXT DAY BUT IT TOOK A LOT OF PRESSURE, PUTTING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. THIS CONDITION CAME ON SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING.
DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED WHICH KEEPS THE INTERIOR LIGHT ON AND PROHIBITS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING WHILE DRIVING. THIS CREATES SAFETY ISSUES THROUGH THE DISTRACTION OF HAVING THE INTERIOR LIGHT CONSTANTLY ON AND THE DOORS NOT LOCKING. THROUGH ONLINE RESEARCH, I'VE NOTICED THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR MY TYPE OF VEHICLE AND NOTICED THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT IT AT THIS POINT.
THE CAR SURGED FORWARD AFTER THE BREAK PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED WHICH RESULTED IN A CRASH INTO A TREE. DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END. THE CAR WAS DRIVABLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP. AT LEAST THREE OTHER INCIDENTS WHERE THE CAR SURGED FORWARD BUT DID NOT RESULT IN A CRASH. TOOK THE CAR TO FUTURE FORD AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO NOTHING WAS DONE. LATEST EVENT ON 5/22/2015 WHERE THE CAR SURGED FORWARD AND CRASHED INTO A BUILDING. IN BOTH INCIDENTS, WE WERE LUCKY IN THAT NOBODY WAS INJURED. THE SURGES LAST ABOUT 4 TO 5 SECONDS.THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. NOTHING IS DONE TO STOP THE SURGE EXCEPT PUSH HARDER ON THE BREAK PEDAL. FUTURE FORD SERVICE MANAGER STATED NOTHING CAN BE DONE WITHOUT POSITIVE PROOF IN THE ERROR CODES.
FORD EDGE LATCH DOOR AJAR, DOME LIGHTS STAY ON NIGHT DRIVER HAZARD
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR KEEPS STATING IT IS OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. CONTINUES TO STAY ON UNTIL MULTIPLE CLOSURES OF THE DOOR, THEN WILL COME BACK ON WHEN AT LOW SPPED OR COMES TO A STOP.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED, THE DOORS FAILED TO AUTOMATICALLY LOCK. IN ADDITION, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED EVEN THOUGH ALL THE DOORS WERE CLOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR CAN BE CLOSED AND LIGHT WILL COME ON SAYING DOOR AJAR EVEN IF THE DOOR IS SHUT. THIS MAKES ME STOP THE CAR AND CLOSE DOOR AGAIN.
THE BRAKE FLUID LINE ON THE REAR BRAKES WAS NOT ALLOWING BRAKE FLUID THROUGH THEREFORE CAUSING THE REAR BRAKE PADS TO CONTINUALLY STAY ENGAGED. THE OUTER RIM OF BOTH REAR ROTORS WAS COMPLETELY CHARRED AND BURNT RED ALONG WITH THE SURFACE OF THE ROTOR BEING COMPLETELY WORN AND GOUGED. I WAS TOLD BY THE REPAIR SHOP THAT I WAS LUCKY THEY DID NOT START A FIRE FROM RUNNING SO HOT. THE REAR ROTORS, PADS AND BRAKE FLUID LINES ALL HAD TO BE REPLACED.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON. MAYBE SEVERAL TIMES OF CLOSING IT REAL HARD TURNS IT OFF L. WILL EVEN ILLUMINATE IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING.
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR KEEPS STATING IT IS OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. CONTINUES TO STAY ON UNTIL MULTIPLE CLOSURES OF THE DOOR.
WHILE DRIVING DOWN A STREET, SUDDENLY THE "DRIVERS DOOR AJAR" ALARM AND WARNING LIGHT CAME ON ON THE DASH, THE DOOR WAS SECURED SHUT, BUT INTERIOR LIGHTS CAME ON AS IF DOOR WAS OPEN. SINCE THE INITIAL DATE OF INCIDENT THE VEHICLE NOW DOES THIS DURING OPERATION, WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS PARKED, OR IN MOTION. A CALL TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT IT WAS INDICATED THAT THIS HAS BEEN A COMPLAINT OF HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF LATE MODEL FORD OWNERS AND THAT, STILL AT THIS TIME, FORDMOCO HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE DOOR LATCHES, THUS IF NOT UNDER THEIR 3YR/36,000MILE WARRANTY THE PART WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT THE VEHICLE OWNERS EXPENSE OF AROUND $400-$500 U.S. FOR THE PART AND REPAIR. I WAS DIRECTED TO FILE A COMPLAINT VIA SAFERCAR.GOV WEBSITE, AND TO ALSO EXPLORE MANY INTERNET WEBSITES AND FORUMS RELATED TO THIS ONGOING ISSUE. UPON A BRIEF INTERNET SEARCH, I WAS EASILY ABLE TO FIND THAT INDEED THE FORD SERVICE ADVISER WAS CORRECT IN THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS BY MANY LATE MODEL VEHICLE OWNERS CONCERNING THE DOOR LATCH SENSOR FAILURES, CAUSING THE ALARM/WARNING LIGHT TO ACTIVATE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, OR PARKED, WHETHER THE VEHICLE WAS ON OR OFF.
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALARM STARTED GOING OFF, AND THE DOORS UNLOCKED WHILE THE CAR WAS MOVING ON THE INTERSTATE. IT HAS NOW HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BOTH WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND WHEN GETTING IN THE VEHICLE. NOW, THE DOME LIGHT AND OUTSIDE MARKER LIGHTS REMAIN ON AND DRAIN THE BATTERY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK BECAUSE THE SENSOR ISN'T READING THAT THE DOORS ARE CLOSED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DOOR WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOORS WERE SECURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR CENSOR IS BAD. FORD HAS KNOWN OF THE PROBLEM FOR A LONG TIME. WHEN YOU SHUT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR THE DASH LIGHT INDICATES THE DOOR IS STILL OPEN SO YOU CLOSE IT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN. IVE GOOGLED IT AND FORD KNOWS ABOUT IT BUT I GUESS THEY RATHER YOU SPEND 500 DOLLARS TO GET IT FIXED THEN DO A RECALL. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME SHUTTING THE DOOR AND RESHUTTING THE DOOR OVER AND OVER TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OUT AND TO GET IT TO STOP DINGING IVE READ ALL THE COMPLAINTS ON LINE AND STILL FORD DOES NOTHING WHY DONT THEY HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS PROBLEM BEFORE YOU BUY THE VEHICLE ISNT THAT FRAUD. IF YOU KNOW OF A PROBLEM YOU HAVE TO DISCLOSE IT. YOU DO WHEN YOURE SELLING AND BUYING A HOUSE!!!!
MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR STAYS ON EVEN WHEN MY DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. SOME TIMES I HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE IT SEVERAL TIMES AND ALMOST SLAM IT SHUT TO GET THE SENSOR TO GO OFF..
VEHICLE DOOR LOCK SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING INCORRECTLY CREATING DRIVING AND SAFETY HAZARDS, BELIEVES DOOR IS AJAR WHEN COMPLETELY CLOSED. VEHICLE ASKS YOU TO SHIFT TO PARK AND DOME LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT CREATING A GLARE. DOORS DO NOT AUTO LOCK WHEN DRIVING WHICH IF A CHILD GRABBED A HANDLE, THEY COULD POTENTIALLY BE THROWN FROM THE VEHICLE. SECURITY OF THE VEHICLE IS COMPROMISED WITH THIS ISSUE, AS WELL AS A TENDENCY TO DRAIN THE BATTERY, CREATING ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES DUE TO FREQUENTLY NEEDING TO PURCHASE / CHANGE REPLACEMENT BATTERY.
2013 FORD EDGE DRIVER DOOR SENSOR REMAINS AJAR, I CLOSE THE DOOR MORE THAN 7 TIMES FOR THE INSIDE LIGHT TO TURN OFF. WHILE DRIVING THE SENSOR WILL TURN ON AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK.
DOOR AJAR INDICATOR IS HIGHLIGHTED. DEALER TELLS ME NOT COVERED BY MY EXTENDED OR FACTORY WARRANTY. TELL ME DOOR LATCH NEEDS REPLACEMENT. WHEN I GOOGLE KNOWN ISSUES WITH FORD EDGE GUESS WHAT IS THE NUMBER ONE RESULT? DOOR LATCH. WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL ON THIS POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE?
DOOR LATCH SWITCH WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THE DOOR IS SHUT. I TOOK IT IN FOR WARRANTY AND FORD SPRAYED IT WITH LUB. AND SAID IT WOULD FINE. BECAUSE OF IT EVERYTIME YOU BRAKE THERE IS A CHIME. YOU CANNOT LOCK THE DOORS THE POP OPEN AGAIN. DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF AND BATTERY IN CAR WILL GO DEAD IF YOU LEAVE THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. I THINK THAT THIS NEEDS FURTHER INVESTIGATION ON FORDS BEHALF. IT IS A DISTRACTION DURING DRIVING AND ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN I HAVE KIDS IN THE CAR. I TRIED TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND THE REPAIR FAILED.
DOOR ADJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. BEGAN AS INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, BUT NOW IS CONSTANT. DUE TO THIS ISSUE, DOME LIGHTS STAY ON, DOOR ADJAR LIGHT AND WARNING TONES WILL NOT TURN OFF, AND DOORS DO NOT LOCK.
DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN DOOR IS OBVIOUSLY CLOSED. IT CAN TAKE UP TO 10-15 SLAMS TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OFF. ANNOYING ALERT TONE GOES OFF UNTIL IT'S CLOSED AND DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. ALSO, CAR WILL NOT LOCK IF DOOR DOES NOT REGISTER AS CLOSED. THIS PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED FOR OVER A YEAR, BUT ODDLY GOES AWAY DURING THE WINTER MONTHS. JUST NOW, MY WINDSHEILD WIPERS WON'T TURN OFF. I DON'T KNOW IF THESE ISSUES ARE RELATED, BUT IT ALL SEEMS ELECTRICAL IN NATURE.
THE VEHICLE REPORTS AN OPEN DOOR WHEN ALL DOORS ARE CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK UNTIL THE DOOR IS REPORTED CLOSED.
THIS IS NOW THE SECOND TIME I'VE LOST ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN, STEERING BECOMES UNCONTROLLABLE AND THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON. CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP AS I TYPE AND I'M BEING TOLD THE CAR HAS NO CODES OF WHAT HAPPENED. I'M NOT SURE HOW A COMPUTER DOESN'T REGISTER A LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT OR HOW IT'S NOT HARD CODED SOMEWHERE IN THE COMPUTER SYSTEM THAT THE CAR JUST CUT OUT AT 5MPH. THE FIRST TIME I WAS OKAY AS NO ONE WAS IN FROM OF ME. THIS TIME I ALMOST WIPED OUT 2 CARS IN A PARKING STRUCTURE WHILE ON A DOWN HILL RAMP. *TR
A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME SLOWED DOWN AND WHEN I WENT TO TAKE MY FOOT OF THE GAS MY TENNIS SHOE GOT CAUGHT ON THE PLASTIC TRIM ON THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT NEXT TO THE GAS PEDAL.. I HAD TO PULL HARD TO GET MY FOOT OFF THE GAS. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE FORD DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT ALL THE EDGES HAD THE TRIM AND THEY DID NOT SEEM CONCERNED. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN MY LEG WAS RESTING ON THE SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHILE HOLDING DOWN THE GAS PEDAL. IT HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE ILLINOIS FREEWAY. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME SLOWED DOWN AND BY THE TIME I GOT MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES QUICKLY AND THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME. I THINK FORD SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO MODIFY THE TRIM IN THAT AREA. *TR
DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR BAD. NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU SLAM THE DRIVERS DOOR, THE SENSOR GIVES A DASH WARNING LIGHT THAT DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR. *TR
AFTER ENTERING VEHICLE AND SECURELY CLOSING DRIVER DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR INDICATES THE DOOR IS NOT LATCHED. OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES USUALLY WILL EVENTUALLY RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR WILL TRIGGER WHILE DRIVING FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED TWICE WHEN ROLLING UP THE DRIVER-SIDE WINDOWS AS THE WINDOW JUST REACHES THE CLOSED POSITION. *TR
DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR FAILING. EVEN THOUGH THE DRIVER DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED AND LOCKED, THE DASH REPORTS THE DOOR IS AJAR. CAUSES DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON, CHIMES TO SOUND, AND DRAINS BATTERY. CLEANING AND OILING WITH SILICON SPRAY HELPS SOME, BUT IS A TEMPORARY FIX AT BEST. FORD DEALER WANTS OVER $600 TO REPLACE LATCH ASSEMBLY. *TR
DOOR AJAR SWITCH NOT WORKING PROPERLY - IT INTERMITTENTLY INDICATES THE DOOR IS STILL OPEN. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON, AND "DOOR AJAR" WARNING IS ANNUNCIATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING, AND CANNOT BE LOCKED AFTER PARKING IF TRYING TO USE THE EXTERIOR KEYPAD. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING MESSAGE FOR THE FRONT AND REAR DRIVER SIDE DOORS WOULD DISPLAY ALTHOUGH THE DOORS WERE COMPLETELY SECURED. THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND CLOSING THE DOORS, THE BATTERY WOULD BECOME DRAINED DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND THE DOOR SWITCHES WERE CLEANED AND/OR REPLACED BUT THE FAILURE WOULD RECURRED APPROXIMATELY 10,000 MILES LATER. IN ADDITION THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT DUE TO THE FAILURE THE DOORS WERE UNABLE TO BE LOCKED WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ON. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
A CONSTANT DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALERT WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR. WILL TRY TO CLOSE THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES AND STILL GET THE SAME ALERT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF BECAUSE OF THE MESSAGE. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE THE DRIVER WILL NOT KNOW IF THEIR DOOR IS AJAR OR NOT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL REMAIN ON AND THIS CAUSES THE BATTERY TO WEAR OUT MUCH FASTER THAN NORMAL AND CAN CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS HAZARD FOR THE DRIVER AT NIGHT. *TR
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALERT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT. IT IS KEEPING THE INTERNAL LIGHTS ON, AND ISN'T ALLOWING THE DOORS TO LOCK. IT IS ALSO NOT ALLOWING TO LOCK AFTER THE VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF WITHOUT OPENING AND SHUTTING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES. *TR
VEHICLE DOOR IS CLOSED BUT WARNING READS DOOR AJAR. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK BECAUSE THE DOOR IS AJAR BUT IT'S NOT. INSIDE STAYED ON FOR ABOUT 2 MIN WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES I GET I'M AND THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS THEN THE DOORS WILL UNLOCK AND THE DOOR AJAR SHIFT TO PARK POPS ON. OR I COULD BE DRIVING WITH THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ON BUT DOORS ARE CLOSED THEN THE DOORS LOCK AND WARNING GOES AWAY. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE SENSOR BUT THE DOOR CLOSES BUT DOES NOT LATCH. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000. UPDATED 6/11/15*CN

(A BAD PART) A PART THAT WILL NOT LAST AND MAY NEED TO BE REPLACE AGAIN.. *TR I GOOGLE IT FRIDAY AND SAW THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE PART, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT'S NOT RECALLED OR THE FORD COMPANY I BOUGHT IT FROM CAN'T JUST REPLACE IT. FORD WANTS $484 FROM ME TO REPLACE THIS PART, I AM SO UPSET. PLUS THEY HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR THREE DAYS. AFTER THIS I AM DONE WITH FORDS!!! MY FIRST NEW SUV, MY FIRST FORD PURCHASE AND IT'S ALREADY IN A SHOP, DUE TO A PART THAT WAS NOT A GOOD PART TO START OUT WITH. IF YOU GUYS WANT TO BUY THIS SUV FROM ME, MAKE ME AN OFFER.

MY LEFT REAR DOOR STAYS AJAR WHICH KEEPS THE LIGHTS ON WHICH KILLS MY BATTERY. ALSO WHEN I'M IN PARK MY DRIVE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT TURNS OFF AND ON. AS A FORD CUSTOMER I WISH THEY WOULD RECALL THESE DEFECTS SO I WOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR PARTS OUT OF MY OWN POCKET. *TR
DRIVERS SIDE DOOR HAS A DOOR AJAR ALARM WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED TIGHTLY . LIGHTS STAY ON AND DOORS DO NOT LOCK. *TR
BOUGHT THIS EDGE AND IN LESS THAN A MONTH LATER THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT STARTING COMING ON. ALMOST A YEAR LATER AND STILL NOTHING HAS WORKED IN FIXING IT. DEALER WANTS $400 TO FIX SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED BY FORD. MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AS YOU CANNOT LOCK THE DOORS WHEN YOU HAVE THIS ERROR. *TR
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR LIGHTS WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS CLOSED. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AT OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR, THE INDICATOR SHUTS OFF. THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON UNTIL THE INDICATOR SHUTS OFF. THE INDICATOR HAS COME ON WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING THE DOME LIGHT TO COME ON AND THE DOOR LOCKS TO UNLOCK. THIS SITUATION HAS IMPAIRED MY VISIBILITY DURING NIGHT TIME DRIVING. THE DOME LIGHT WILL DRAW DOWN THE BATTERY IF YOU ARE NOT AWARE THAT IT IS ON WHEN LEAVING THE VEHICLE. *TR
THE SENSOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR TO DETECT DOOR CLOSURE MALFUNCTIONS REPEATEDLY AND DOES NOT REGISTER THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED EVEN IF THE DOOR LATCH IS IN PROPER POSITION. THIS CREATES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD IN THAT THE DOORS CANNOT BE FULLY LOCKED (SIGNIFICANT CRASH SAFETY RISK) WHILE DRIVING OR STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT (PERSONAL SECURITY RISK, REMAINS ABLE TO OPEN DOOR FROM THE EXTERIOR). THIS IS A RECURRENT PROBLEM AND FROM ENCOUNTERS WITH OTHER OWNERS, THIS IS CONSISTENT ACROSS THESE VEHICLES AND RECURS EVEN IF THE PART IF REPLACED. THIS IS IN VALIDATION OF FMVSS NO. 206 REQUIREMENTS. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT 3 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF A VEHICLE AND INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED MINOR BRUISES THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO BODY REPAIR CENTER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,000.
DOOR LATCH DRIVER DOOR NEED TO REPLACE $415.00. *TR
DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF. *TR
WHEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS CLOSED THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR REMAINS ON ALTHOUGH THE DOOR IS DEFINITELY CLOSED. THE DOOR HAS TO BE SLAMMED SHUT ANYWHERE FROM 3-7 TIMES BEFORE THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR SHUTS OFF. AT TIMES IT SHUTS OFF AND WHILE DRIVING IT COMES BACK ON. IF THE SENSOR REMAINS ON THE DOORS WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK. *TR
IT STARTED OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS. START THE CAR AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON REGARDLESS IS I OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR HARDER. PUT THE CAR IN GEAR AND YOU HAVE THE WARNING LIGHTS TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK DURING ONE OF THESE EPISODES AND THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON. I ALSO LOCK MY CAR DOORS AT NIGHT ONLY TO FIND THAT THEY HAVE UNLOCKED THEMSELVES DURING THE NIGHT AND MY HEADS LIGHTS HAVE TURNED ON AS WELL. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 6 TIMES. NOT VERY HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!! *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE DOOR AJAR AND SHIFT INTO PARK WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED AND THE DOOR CHIME INDICATOR SOUNDED AFTER ALL OF THE DOORS WERE CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED THE ENTIRE TIME. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIRING HARNESS AND SWITCH IN THE DRIVER'S DOOR ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

BOUGHT MY CAR IN FEBRUARY OF 2014. (WE WERE THE 2ND OWNERS. NOT SURE IF PREVIOUS OWNERS EXPERIENCED TROUBLE BEFORE THEY TRADED THE CAR IN.) ALMOST IMMEDIATELY WE STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH "DOOR AJAR" LIGHTS STAYING ON WHICH CAUSED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT ALSO DOESN'T ALLOW THE DOORS TO LOCK THEMSELVES AUTOMATICALLY WHEN DRIVING. WE HAD SENSORS REPLACED BY FORD ON BOTH FRONT DOORS AFTER A LOT OF BACK AND FORTH WITH THEM LAST YEAR. NOW WE ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH A SENSOR ON ONE OF THE BACK DOORS THAT'S CAUSING ALL THE SAME PROBLEMS AS LAST TIME ONLY THIS TIME WE ARE ALSO HAVING TROUBLE WITH INTERIOR LIGHTS COMING ON AND GOING OFF ON THEIR OWN WHILE THE CAR IS SITTING PARKED. NOBODY LIKES A DEAD BATTERY. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. RIGHT NOW THIS IS A WARRANTY ISSUE FOR ME BUT WILL EVENTUALLY COST AROUND $500 A POP TO FIX AND MORE IMPORTANTLY IT POSES A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE CHILDREN RIDING IN MY CAR IF THEIR DOOR DOESN'T LATCH PROPERLY & I DON'T KNOW IT BECAUSE I ASSUME IT'S JUST THE SENSOR ACTING UP AGAIN. PLEASE HELP GET THIS SENSOR RECALLED. FORD HAS NO INTENTION OF DOING IT. *TR
DRIVER'S DOOR IS SHUT TIGHTLY, BUT "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" LIGHT KEEPS COMING UP INTERMITTENTLY. ALSO, DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AND WARNING SOUNDS. STARTED OFF OCCASIONALLY DOING THIS, NOW IS DOING PRACTICALLY EVERY TIME YOU GO TO START THE ENGINE. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT ALL THE AUTOMATIC LOCKS WERE UNLOCKED, THE CHIME SOUNDED, AND THE DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
THE DRIVER DOOR LATCH IS GETTING REPLACED AS IT TELLS US THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS HAPPEN IN A LOT OF FORD EDGE'S. IT IS COSTING ME $350.00 AND I WOULD LIKE MY MONEY BACK FROM FORD. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT A 2013 SHOULD BE HAVING THOSE KIND OF ISSUES AND FORD SHOULD FIX THE ISSUE. *TR
VEHICLE STATES THAT DRIVERS DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS CLOSED. MULTIPLE TIMES IT WILL NOT RECOGNIZE IT IS CLOSED AND DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE APPROACHING A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,800.
THE "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON, THE WARNING CHIME TO RING AND THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED. *TR
THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR COMES ON ANYTIME THE DOOR IS OPEN AND THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION. BEFORE THE ABOVE DATE THE SENSOR WENT OFF AS SOON AS YOU SHUT THE DOOR. NOW IT IS ON ALL THE TIME UNLESS I OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR 5 - 20 TIMES TO GET IT TO GO OFF. IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO LOCK THE DOORS WITH IT ON. THE DOME LIGHT WON'T GO OFF AND MANY TIMES I AM FORCED TO DRIVE TO WORK WITH IT STILL ON BECAUSE I CAN'T BE LATE FOR WORK SITTING AT HOME OPENING AND CLOSING MY DOOR OVER AND OVER AGAIN. MY SON HAS A 2011 FORD EDGE AND MY FRIEND HAS A 2006 FORD EDGE ALL WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. HOW LONG IS THIS GOING TO GO ON BEFORE SOMEONE MAKES FORD FIX THIS PROBLEM FOR EVERYONE?! *TR

THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR/SWITCH IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND SHOWS THAT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS OPEN/AJAR WHEN IT IS SECURELY CLOSED. WHEN THE CAR "THINKS" THE DOOR IS AJAR THE DOME LIGHT DOES NOT TURN OFF FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, EVEN WHILE DRIVING, THE POWER LOCKS WILL NOT ENGAGE AND EVEN UNLOCK WHEN THE DOOR LOCK SWITCH IS USED. IN ADDITION, EVERY TIME THE CAR COMES TO A STOP THE ALERT CHIMES THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN HAVING TO DRIVE TO MY WORK IN AN URBAN AREA (NOT SAFELY LOCKED IN MY CAR) IN ADDITION, IT IS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH CHILDREN WHO MAY BE ABLE TO REACH THE DOOR HANDLE. *TR
VEHICLE IS STALLING AT RED LIGHT AND ON THE FREEWAY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSTICS SYSTEMS SUGGESTS THE THROTTLE BODY IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE BUT FORD REFUSES TO ISSUE A RECALL. *TR
THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR DOES NOT GO OFF WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON, NOT SAFE AT NIGHT, AND YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCK YOUR DOORS WHILE INSIDE THE VEHICLE. NOT TO MENTION THE CONSTANT ANNOYANCE OF THE CHIME GOING OFF. *TR
SWITCH THAT DETECTS WHEN DRIVERS DOOR IS AJAR IS DEFECTIVE AND SHOWS THE DOOR IS OPEN AT ALL TIMES. THEREFORE THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK. THE DOORS REMAINS UNLOCKED AT ALL SPEEDS, PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE ONE OF THE THOUSANDS OF FORD VEHICLES (SEVERAL MODEL YEARS AND SEVERAL MODELS) IS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE SOME CHILD IS THROWN FROM THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE DOORS OPENED.

DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR NOT WORKING..WONT ALLOW DOORS TO LOCK WHILE DRIVING BELL CONTINUES TO RING WHILE DRIVING AND DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING. THESE FACTORS CAUSES HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS WHILE DRIVING. BEING UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS IS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE CHILDREN IN THE CAR. SOMEONE CAN OPEN YOUR DOOR AND HARM YOU. THERE IS SO MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. RECALL A MUST. *TR
WHEN I CLOSE THE DRIVERS DOOR, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT SHUT OFF AND THE WARNING LIGHT SAYING THE DOOR IS OPEN COMES ON. I'VE EVEN HAD INSTANCES WHERE THE DOOR WILL BE CLOSED, I START DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THEN THE LIGHT WILL COME ON SAYING THE DOOR ISN'T LATCHED. MOST OF THE TIME, IT TAKES OVER 10 TIMES OF OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR BEFORE IT WILL LATCH AND THE LIGHTS WILL TURN OFF. AND IT IS STEADILY GETTING WORSE.

THE DOOR LATCH ON THE 2013 FORD EDGE IS FAULTY, AND CONTINUALLY HAS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN 6 MONTHS WE HAVE HAD TO HAVE THIS REPLACED, AND THIS TIME, WE ARE 3000 MILES OVER OUR WARRANTY, AND ARE HAVING TO GO OUT OF POCKET FOR THIS - AN EXPENSE OF OVER $300. ADDITIONALLY, BECAUSE THE DOOR LATCH DOESN'T WORK CORRECTLY, IT CONTINUALLY CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS OF THE CART TO STAY ON, WHICH HAS CAUSED THE BATTERY TO DEPLETE, AND WE ARE NOW FACING THE CHARGE FOR A NEW BATTERY AS WELL IN ORDER TO GET OUR VEHICLE IN WORKING ORDER. LASTLY, FORD INFORMED US TODAY THAT THE FACTORY BATTERY THAT THEY INSTALLED IS "TOO SMALL" FOR THIS SIZE VEHICLE, AND A LARGER CAPACITY BATTERY SHOULD BE PUT IN ITS PLACE. WE PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW, AND ISSUES LIKE THIS MAKE US FEEL AS IF WE'VE PURCHASED A LEMON. FORD IS NOW CHARGING US FOR A PART THAT IS CLEARLY POORLY MANUFACTURED, AND AS A CONSEQUENCE, CAUSING US TO BUY ADDITIONAL PARTS LIKE BATTERIES TO SUPPORT THEIR MISTAKES. *TR

MY 2013 EDGE IS NEW WITHIN THE PAST 2 YEARS AND IT IS CURRENTLY UNDER LEASE. THE DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION IS BEING TRIGGERED CONSTANTLY WHICH IN TURN AFFECTS OTHER MECHANISMS OR ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS IN THE CAR. THE INABILITY FOR THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR TO CLOSE TRIGGERS CAB LIGHTS, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHTS, AND THE LOCKING OF DOORS. THESE ISSUES CAN OCCUR WHILE STATIONARY/PARKING AND AT VARIOUS SPEEDS WHILE DRIVING...AT NIGHT AND DURING THE DAY. THE CAB LIGHT BEING ON AT NIGHT IS THE MOST DANGEROUS FROM A DRIVING STANDPOINT, BECAUSE IT AFFECTS VISIBILITY TO A POINT OF WANTING TO TRY AND OPEN AND SHUT IT AT HIGH SPEEDS. I DON'T KNOW IF HAVING THE CAB LIGHT ON WHILE IT IS PARKED IS ENOUGH TO DRAIN THE BATTERY OR EVEN HOW LONG THE CAB LIGHT EVEN STAYS ON, BUT UNFORTUNATELY I'M GOING TO PROBABLY LEARN THIS THE HARD WAY AND BE STRANDED. ALSO, THERE IS DEFINITELY A RISK OF HAVING ITEMS STOLEN FROM MY CAR. *TR
WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 FORD EDGE LOST ALL POWER IN A TURN. THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN, THE LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD A HARD TIME STEERING THE CAR DUE TO THE LOST OF POWER AND THE CAR STILL IN DRIVE. FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME OR IN FRONT OF ME AT THE TIME. UPON READING SEVERAL FORUMS ON THIS PROBLEM I FIND THAT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AS IT APPEARS THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS. WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO GET A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM, A FATAL ACCIDENT? I'LL BE TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALER SINCE I DRIVE IN TRAFFIC EVERY DAY AND I CAN'T AFFORD THIS TO HAPPEN IN THAT CONDITION, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE THE DEALER WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROBLEM AS PER PREVIOUS POSTS INDICATE SUCH. *TR

OUR FORD MECHANIC ADVISED US THE PASSENGER AIR BAG HAD NOT BEEN PROPERLY FIXED AND THAT HE WAS NOT SURE IF IT WOULD OPERATE PROPERLY AND IF IT WOULD, EVEN IF IT WOULD BE SAFE. THE HOLE IN THE DASH CAUSED BY THE PREVIOUS ACCIDENT HAD BEEN PATCHED WITH A RUBBER FLOOR MAT AND NOT TO FORD MOTOR SPECS. WHEN WE CONFRONTED THE DEALER ABOUT THE PATCH JOB WE WERE TOLD IT WAS " A CUSTOM MADE AIR BAG COVER, WE USE THEM ALL THE TIME" HE SAID. DEALER FINALLY AGREED TO REPAIR AIR BAG AS WELL AS OTHER ITEMS ON THE CAR. WE GOT THE RUN AROUND FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, DEALER TOLD US THEY WOULD FIX IT AND NEVER HAVE.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000.
THE DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR INDICATES THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS CLOSED AND WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL THE DOOR IS REPEATEDLY SLAMMED. THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF AND THE ELECTRONIC CHIME WILL CONTINUE TO SOUND UNTIL THE SENSOR IS ACKNOWLEDGED OR THE DOOR IS SLAMMED UNTIL THE SENSOR TURNS OFF. *TR
THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR SWITCH GIVES FALSE AJAR INDICATIONS. THIS CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHICH IS A NIGHT TIME DRIVING SAFETY HAZARD. THE FALSE READING PREVENTS THE DRIVER FOR SEEING ANY VALID AJAR SITUATIONS. WITH THE DOME LIGHTS ON, CREATES AN UNSAFE ENVIRONMENTS WHEN SITTING IN THE CAR AT NIGHT IN A PUBLIC AREA. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN SITTING IN THE CAR. *JS
SENSOR IN DRIVERS DOOR LATCH SENDS MESSAGE TO DASH PANEL "DOOR AJAR". THIS RESULTS IN A WARNING BELL EVERY TIME CAR STARTS FROM COMPLETE STOP. WE ARE CONCERNED THERE MIGHT BE SOMETHING ELSE WRONG & WE WOULDN'T NOTICE THE WARNING AS IT HAPPENS SO OFTEN AS WE DRIVE. *TR
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS ALWAYS ON EVEN WHEN I CLOSE THE DOOR. THE DRIVE DOOR AJAR SENSOR NEVER GOES OFF. IT CAUSES THE LIGHTS TO COME ON WHILE I AM DRIVING, IT WILL NOT LET ME LOCK THE DOORS WHILE I AM INSIDE THE CAR AS WELL AS THE LIGHTS STAY ON FOR OVER 5 MINUTES WHEN I TRY TO LOCK THE CAR AFTER I GET OUT. THIS IS DRAINING MY BATTERY. *TR
DRIVERS DOOR LATCH FAULTY. CAUSES "DOOR AJAR" AND "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING LIGHTS EVEN THOUGH DOOR COMPLETELY SHUT. IGNORING THE WARNING LIGHT IS DANGEROUS. UNDER WARRANTY FORD'S PROCEDURE IS STILL TO ONLY CLEAN THE CONTACTS AND NOT REPLACE THE UNIT. THIS FAULT OCCURRED AGAIN AFTER THEY CLEANED. *TR
DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR MALFUNCTIONING AND INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON AND DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED ONLY HAVE 41,000 TO OPEN AND CLOSE TOO MANY TIMES FOR IT TO GO OUT AND IF THAT EVEN WORKS. *TR
THERE WERE TWO INCIDENTS INVOLVING LOSS OF ENGINE POWER WHILE ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC. I DO NOT HAVE THE DATE OF THE FIRST OCCURRENCE, BUT IT WAS APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH BEFORE THE SECOND OCCURRENCE. BOTH TIMES, AS I WAS ACCELERATING FROM A STOP LIGHT, THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING, BUT HAD NO POWER AND I DRIFTED TO A STOP. THE WARNING MESSAGE LIGHT WAS A PICTURE OF A WRENCH. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS ON A TWO-LANE ROAD WITH DEEP DITCHES ON BOTH SIDES, AND THERE WAS NO OTHER PLACE TO STOP BUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. FORTUNATELY, CARS BEHIND ME STOPPED IN TIME. THE SECOND TIME, I WAS ACCELERATING UP A HILL ON A FOUR-LANE ROAD WITH MIDDLE TURN LANE. I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT TO THE TURN LANE AND STOP THERE. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR BOTH TIMES, POWER WAS RESTORED. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED, WE TOOK THE CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP THE FOLLOWING DAY. THERE WERE NO CODES, BUT FROM THE WARNING LIGHT, THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY. ON THE SECOND OCCURRENCE, MY HUSBAND AND I IMMEDIATELY DROVE TO AN AUTO PARTS STORE. THEY WERE ABLE TO READ A CODE AND IT WAS TROUBLE CODE P2111, THROTTLE ACTUATOR "A" CONTROL SYSTEM - STUCK OPEN. THE FORD DEALER INDICATED THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THIS PROBLEM AND THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF ANY ISSUES. BOTH TIMES, IT WAS A FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT COULD HAVE INVOLVED INJURIES, IF THE CAR(S) FOLLOWING REAR-ENDED THE VEHICLE. *TR
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE "DRIVERS DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED SPORADICALLY. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLES WARNING CHIMES WOULD INTERMITTENTLY ACTIVATED, THE MAP LIGHTS IN THE VEHICLE WOULD STAY LIT, AND THE DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK ON THEIR OWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 114,651.
DOOR AJAR WARNING (ON SCREEN AS WELL AS REPEATED BELL NOISE) CAME ON WHILE I WAS ON A 2 LANE ROAD WITH NO SHOULDERS AVAILABLE DUE TO SNOW ALONGSIDE ROAD. I WAS FORCED TO STOP IN MIDDLE OF ROAD TO OPEN AND CLOSE DOOR REPEATEDLY TO TURN OFF DOOR AJAR. IT FELT LIKE DOOR WAS CLOSED BUT SENSOR KEPT INDICATING IT WAS OPEN. PROBLEM ABATED FOR A FEW DAYS BUT HAS COME BACK NOW. *TR
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WARNING COMES ON AS WELL AS THE INTERIOR MAP LIGHTS, THE DOOR HAS TO BE SLAMMED A NUMBER OF TIMES BEFORE THE WARNING GOES OFF AND THE LIGHTS GO OFF. IN ADDITION WHEN EXITING THE CAR IT CAN NOT BE LOCKED UNTIL YOU SLAM THE DOOR MORE THEN ONCE TO SHUT OFF THE ALERT. *TR
MY DOOR SENSOR ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE CONTINUES TO ALERT ME THAT IT'S OPEN, WHEN IT ISN'T. THIS CAUSES MY DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON AND ALL MY DOORS NOT TO LOCK. I HAVE TO SLAM MY DOOR HARD MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET IT TO GO OFF, OR JUST DRIVE WITH IT ON. *TR
DRIVER SIDE DOOR SYMBOL WILL APPEAR ON DASH BOARD WAS WELL AS DOOM LIGHTS WILL STAY ON, WILL HAVE TO SHUT DOOR A COUPLE OF TIMES OR TURN THE CAR BACK ON TO RESET. THIS NOW GETTING TO THE POINT THAT THE CAR CANNOT BE LOCKED OR THE DOOM INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON AND DRAIN THE BATTERY. *TR
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DRIVER DOOR UNLOCKED AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.
THE SYSTEM IS SHOWING A "DOOR AJAR" ALARM, DRIVERS FRONT DOOR. INITIALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST BECAUSE I DID NOT CLOSE THE DOOR ENOUGH SO I OPENED IT AND PULLED HARDER AND THE ALARM WENT AWAY. WE DROVE THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS AND ONE MORNING WHEN IT WAS COLD I CLOSED THE DOOR AND THE ALARM POSTED AGAIN AFTER OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES THE ALARM WENT AWAY. WE DROVE THE CAR A FEW MORE DAYS AND THE ALARM WAS POSTING 50 % OF THE TIME. AROUND DECEMBER THE ALARM BEGAN POSTING MOST OF THE TIME, NOW IT POST 100% OF THE TIME EVEN ON THE WARM DAYS. THERE ARE AT LEAST THREE ISSUES WHEN THE ALARM IS ON. 1.THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF FOR AROUND 20 MINUTES, I'M SURE THIS IS NOT GOOD ON THE BATTERY. 2.THE DOME LIGHTS DO NOT GO OFF WHILE IN REVERSE, THEY ONLY GO OFF AFTER YOU ARE IN DRIVE AND MOVE FORWARD FOR QUITE A FEW FEET. THIS MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDOWS AFTER DARK. 3.THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE. *TR
THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. I HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR HARD 4-5 TIMES TO GET IT TO GO OFF. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE ALERT TO "SHIFT TO PARK". I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALER WHO CHARGED ME $80 TO SAY THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. I CAME HOME, KNOWING THIS WASN'T RIGHT AND FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. FORD NEEDS TO PLACE A RECALL ON THIS. *TR
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR KEEPS READING DOOR AJAR EVEN THO THE DOOR IS CLOSED. IT HAPPENS NOT ONLY WHEN THE CAR IS OFF AND WE GO TO LOCK IT, BUT WHILE WE ARE DRIVING AS WELL. IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING THE CAR WILL BEGIN TO MAKE ALERT SOUNDS, THE LIGHTS WILL COME ON, AND IT WILL ALERT US TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK. WHEN WE DO PARK AND GO TO LOCK THE CAR, THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON UNTIL THE TIMER SHUTS THEM OFF BECAUSE IT IS STILL REGISTERING THE DOOR AS AJAR. MY MAIN CONCERN WITH THIS PROBLEM IS THAT WE HAVE A NEWBORN AND THE SAFETY ISSUES WITH DRIVING THIS VEHICLE WHILE ALERTS ARE GOING OFF IS VERY TROUBLESOME. I HAVE SET AN APPOINTMENT UP WITH THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO LOOK AT THE DOOR, BUT AFTER REVIEWING THE GROSS NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE, IT IS MIND BLOWING TO ME THAT FORD HAS NOT STEPPED UP AND ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE YET. HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSE TO FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING IF THE CAR IS CONSTANTLY ALERTING AND TELLING YOU THAT YOUR DRIVER DOOR IS OPEN? *TR
THE SYSTEM IS SHOWING A "DOOR AJAR" ALARM, DRIVERS FRONT DOOR. INITIALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST BECAUSE I DID NOT CLOSE THE DOOR ENOUGH SO I JUST OPENED IT, AND PULLED A LITTLE HARDER AND THE ALARM WENT AWAY. I DROVE THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS AND ONE MORNING WHEN IT WAS FROSTY I CLOSED THE DOOR AND THE "DOOR AJAR" ALARM POSTED AGAIN. I OPENED THE DOOR AND CLOSED IT SEVERAL TIMES AND THE ALARM WENT AWAY. FROM THIS I THOUGHT THE STRIKER NEEDED TO BE ADJUSTED, I THOUGHT, "HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE DOOR SWITCH COULD HAVE FAILED ON A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY 1.5 YEARS OLD?". I DROVE THE CAR FOR A FEW MORE DAYS AND AT THIS POINT THE ALARM WAS POSTING ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME. AROUND THE BEGINNING OF DECEMBER THE ALARM BEGAN POSTING ALL THE TIME. NOW, IT POSTS NEARLY 95% OF THE TIME WITH ONLY A FEW TIMES WHERE IT DOES NOT. THE ISSUE WITH THIS ALARM IS TWOFOLD: 1) IT KEEPS THE DOME LIGHTS ON BECAUSE THE SYSTEM DOES NOT SEE THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED WHEN YOU GET OUT OF THE CAR AND LOCK IT, THUS THE TIMER MUST TIME OUT (AROUND 20 MINUTES) AND THE LIGHTS TURN OFF. 2) THIS PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM BEING LOCKED WHILE DRIVING. THE LAST ONE IS THE ONE THAT I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH BECAUSE THIS, TO ME, IS A SAFETY CONCERN. *TR
THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR WENT ON. WHEN THAT GOES ON WHEN BACKING UP YOU CAN'T SEE BECAUSE THE DOME LIGHTS STAYS ON CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT CREATES A GLARE MAKING IT HARD TO SEE WHAT IS BEHIND YOU. THE DOME LIGHT WILL FINALLY SHUT OFF WHEN YOU GO FORWARD WHEN A CERTAIN SPEED IS MEET. ALSO WHEN THE DOME LIGHT IS ON BECAUSE OF THE SENSOR IT WILL NOT LOCK THE DOOR. THIS SENSOR ON MY CAR WAS CLEANED ON 7/31/14 BY A FORD DEALER. THIS ONLY LASTED ABOUT SIX MONTH AND I JUST HAD IT THE DOOR LATCH REPLACED ON 1/13/15 BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. RECENTLY I WAS STUCK IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE A SNOW STORM IN WHICH IT TOOK ME 2-1/2 HOURS TO GET HOME. MY TYPICAL COMMUTE HOME IS 45 MINUTES. WHILE I WAS IN TRAFFIC 5:00 PM ON 1/8/15 THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR CAME ON. THE TRAFFIC WAS MOVING SLOW, MY DOME LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON FOR OVER AN HOUR WHICH CREATING A GLARE WHILE DRIVING. IT WOULD NEVER SHUT OFF BECAUSE I NEVER REACHED THE FORWARD SPEED FAST ENOUGH TO TURN IT OFF, ALSO EVERY TIME I LET MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK A BELL WOULD SOUND. I HAVE SPOKEN TO OUR LOCAL FORD DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS UNTIL FORD ISSUES A RECALL. IT IS DOCUMENTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH FORD EDGES. I FEEL THAT WITH THE GLARE CAUSED BY THE DOME LIGHT STAYING ON CREATES A HAZARD TO BOTH ME AND MY FAMILY AND FORD SHOULD HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. *TR
THREE OF THE FOUR WHEELS HAVE THE CHROME-PLATING PEELING AWAY. VERY SHARP EDGES WHERE PEELING. SOME WHEELS WORSE THAN ANOTHER. *TR
DRIVERS DOOR READING DOOR AJAR WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR. OPENED AND CLOSED MULTIPLE TIMES AND SENSOR WILL STILL NOT READ THAT DOOR IS CLOSED SOMETIMES. CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN DOOR IS OBVIOUSLY CLOSED AND SENSOR WILL START ALARMING AND DOME LIGHT COMES ON. *TR
AT LEAST FIVE SEPARATE TIMES, WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH RATES OF SPEED, MY 2013 FORD EDGE WILL BEGIN TO HESITATE AND SHUDDER. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGINS TO FLASH AND THEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOSES POWER. I CAN BARELY KEEP THE VEHICLE GOING AT ABOUT 20 MILES AN HOUR. I CAN GENERALLY COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OR FREEWAY. I HAVE TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND LET IT SIT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES BEFORE I CAN TURN IT BACK ON AND RESTORE POWER TO DRIVE IT. IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE INTO THE FORD DEALER SERVICE THREE TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE AND REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. DESPITE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEING ON, THE COMPUTER IS THROWING NO ERROR MESSAGES. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE AND SCARY SITUATION. I REFUSE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AGAIN. TO DO SO WOULD PUT MYSELF IN DANGER, MY PASSENGERS AND OTHER DRIVERS IN DANGER. I HAVE APPLIED TO FORD MOTOR COMPANY FOR A BUY BACK UNDER THEIR "REACQUISITION PROGRAM" BUT WAS TOLD ON JANUARY 8, 2015 THAT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT QUALIFY UNDER CALIFORNIA LEMON LAW. I WAS GIVEN NO EXPLANATION OR OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS DECISION WITH FORD. MY PROBLEM SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT IS DESCRIBED IN THIS ARTICLE, ALTHOUGH MY EDGE IS A 4-CYLINDER WITH AN ECO-BOOST ENGINE. HTTP://WWW.THECARCONNECTION.COM/NEWS/1084213_FORD-OWNERS-FILE-LAWSUIT-CLAIM-ECOBOOST-ENGINE-LOSES-POWER-DURING-ACCELERATION. *TR
DOOR AJAR SIGN COMES ON DUE TO SENSOR FAILURE ON DRIVER DOOR WHICH TURNS LIGHTS ON IN VEHICLE AND "SHIFT TO PARK" NOTICE COMES UP WHILE DRIVING.
DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS COMING ON WHILE DRIVING. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WITH THIS ON WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD. DOOR AJAR LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON AND THE ALERT CHIME SOUNDS. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THIS VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE FOR THIS ISSUE DUE TO THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ AND FORD NOT TAKING CARE OF THE COST TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE. I FEEL THAT FORD SHOULD COVER THIS SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
DRIVER DOOR LATCH SENSOR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT DOOR IS CLOSED. STARTED AS INTERMITTENT PROBLEM NOW ALARM IS ON ALL THE TIME. CAN HEAR SWITCH CLICK WHEN MANUALLY OPERATED BUT DOOR AJAR ALARM WILL NOT GO OUT. THIS PREVENTS VARIOUS OTHER THINGS FROM OPERATING PROPERLY INCLUDING SAFETY FEATURES. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECTIVE PART THAT FORD HAS INSTALLED IN MANY OF THEIR VEHICLES. EVERY WHERE I TURN THERE ARE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. MOST OF THESE CARS ARE NOT EVEN 2 YEARS OLD. *TR
DRIVER DOOR IS ALWAYS AJAR ON THE DASH PANEL. THIS CAUSES THE DOORS NOT TO LOCK WHEN INSIDE THE CAR AND IS VERY ANNOYING WHEN IT DINGS/RINGS EVERYTIME YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. I BELIEVE IT IS THE SENSOR AND I AM NOT WILLING TO PAY $150.00 AT THE DEALERSHIP JUST TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS AND THEN PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED. THE CAR IS NOT THAT OLD AND SHOULD BE FIXED FOR FREE. WHILE RESEARCHING ON THE INTERNET, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MY MAKE AND MODEL OF CAR. VERY DISAPPOINTING. *JS
DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR WHEN THE DOOR IS POSITIVELY SHUT. NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO SHUT THE DOOR FAIL TO TURN OFF INTERIOR LAMPS AND LIGHT ON INSTRUMENT PANEL. THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION SINCE I CAN NOT DEPICT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FAULTY SWITCH OR MY CHILD ACTUALLY OPENING ONE OF THE VEHICLE DOORS. FROM THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE I AM APPALLED AT THE LACK OF RESPONSE FROM FORD AND THE NTSB. DO CHILDREN HAVE TO LOSE THEIR LIVES BEFORE A RECALL IS INITIATED? SHAME ON YOU! *JS
DRIVER SIDE DOOR SAYS IT'S NOT CLOSED AND LIGHTS STAYS ON IN DASH SAYING DOOR IS AJAR, BELL RINGS AND INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF, AFTER SEVERAL TIMES OF SLAMMING THE LIGHT GOES OUT. IT'S SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE LOCK SENSOR, BUT FORD HAS NOT RECALLED IT. I TRIED SPRAYING WD- 40 IN LOCK AREA REALLY DIDN'T HELP IT . WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST 300.00-500.00 TO REPAIR. COME ON FORD?????? *TR
WHEN CLOSE DOOR IT SAYS DOOR AJAR AND DOOR AJAR COMES ON AND DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT 60 PERCENT OF THE TIME. *TR
DRIVERS DOOR IS CLOSED BUT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. SOME TIME TURNS ON WHILE DRIVING. *TR
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SENSOR WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THE DOOR IS SHUT. THIS IS CAUSING THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON DURING THE NIGHT TIME AND THE DOORS CANNOT LOCK. MY CHILD IS ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE MOVING CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM WHEN WE TOOK IT IN AND KNOWS THIS IS A DEFECT, BUT WILL NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THE REQUIRE US TO PAY 300-500 DOLLARS TO FIX. PLEASE MAKE THEM RECALL THIS FOR THE SAFETY OF THE CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT. I WILL BE CONTACTING MY LAWYER TO SEE WHAT FURTHER STEPS WE CAN TAKE. *TR
"DOOR AJAR" LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF AND INTERIOR LIGHTS AND PANEL LIGHT LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF AFTER DOOR IS SHUT AND LOCKED.

THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON I N DRIVER DOOR ALMOST EVERYTIME YOU SHUT THE DOOR NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU SLAM IT. IT TAKES SEVERAL TIMES FOR B THE SIGNAL TO GO OFF. THIS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. WHILE DRIVING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON RANDOMLY AND ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL COME ON MAKING IT HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT. ALSO THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK IF THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL IS TURNED ON. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND I AM NOT HAPPY. THIS IS A NEWER VEHICLE AND THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS 500 TO FIX THIS. WHEN THIS IS A MANUFACTURER ISSUE! *TR
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON ALONG WITH INTERIOR LIGHT AT RANDOM TIMES. IT HAPPENS WHEN FIRST ENTERING THE VEHICLE IN THE MORNING AND ALSO WHEN DRIVING AT ALL TIMES THROUGH THE DAY. THE ONLY FIX WE'VE FOUND IS SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT A FEW TIMES. *TR
THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED TO ME THREE TIMES AND ALL THREE TIMES WERE DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AND I WAS LUCKY TO NOT BE HIT FROM BEHIND. I WILL BE DRIVING AND I SUDDENLY GET A WRENCH LIGHT ON MY DASH BOARD AND THEN LOSE THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE MY CAR AND IT BASICALLY COASTS TO A STOP AND I CAN FEEL A SHAKING/RUMBLING FROM THE ENGINE. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURN IT OFF, I CAN TURN IT BACK ON AND IT IS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED AND THE LIGHT GOES AWAY AND I CAN CONTINUE DRIVING HOME. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY CAN ONLY FIX IT IF THEY SEE THE WRENCH LIGHT ON SO THEY CAN PULL THE CODE, MEANING I HAVE TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER WHILE STILL ON. ONLY PROBLEM IS EVERY TIME IT HAS HAPPENED HAS BEEN AFTER WORK AT NIGHT WHEN THE DEALERS ARE ALREADY CLOSED. I AM NOW NERVOUS EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE CAR AND AM AFRAID TO GET ON HIGHWAYS. *TR

I KEEP TOOK MY SUV TO THE FORD, BUT THEY KEEP TELLING ME THEY DON'T SEE ANY PROBLEM BUT OVER 81 PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT ISSUES SO I THINK IT IS TIME FOR FEDERAL TO TAKE THE ACTION!

SOMETIMES WHEN YOU OPEN AND SHUT THE DRIVER DOOR WHETHER WHILE STILL DRIVING OR IF AND WHEN YOU FIND A SIDE OF THE ROAD SPACE, THE WARNING SIGN DISAPPEARS. BUT OFTENTIMES, IT TAKES 3 OR FOUR TRIES TO MAKE IT DISAPPEAR. SOMETIMES THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES WITH AN INSTRUCTION TO SHIFT TO P (PARK) . . . . WHICH IS HELPFUL IF YOU CAN FIND A SIDE OF THE ROAD SPOT OTHERWISE THE INSTRUCTION WILL JUST CONFUSE A NOVICE DRIVER AND COULD POTENTIALLY CREATE AN ACCIDENT.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND CHIMES WILL STAY ON EVEN THOUGH THE DRIVERS DOOR IS OBVIOUSLY CLOSED. NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU CLOSE THE DOOR IT STILL DOES THIS . THIS PROBLEM ALSO WILL NOT ALLOW THE DOORS TO BE LOCKED WHILE DRIVING . THAT IS A HAZARD ! ALSO, WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED, THE HEAD LINER LIGHTS STAY LIT FOR 10 MINUTES UNTIL THE COMPUTER DEFAULTS THEM TO TURN OFF. BECAUSE THE SENSOR THINKS THE DOOR IS AJAR.

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

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

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

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

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
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR BECOMES AJAR 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 IS A HAZARD. ALSO, EVERY TIME YOU START TO ACCELERATE THE CAR BEEPS AND TELLS YOU TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, WHICH IS A HUGE DISTRACTION. *TR
WHILE DRIVING, AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WARNING COMES UP ON THE DASH AND A BELL WILL RING SAYING THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. SOMETIMES IT SAYS TO PUT CAR IN PARK. I OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR AND IT FIXES THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY, ONLY TO HAPPEN AGAIN. HAPPENING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. *JS
IN VIEW OF ALL THE CARS BEING RECALLED FOR FAILURE OF WHAT WOULD APPEAR TO BE RELATIVELY SIMPLE DEVICES, IT OCCURS TO ME THAT I SHOULD REPORT THIS INCIDENT, IN CASE THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER REPORTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM. WHILE DRIVING IN LIGHT TRAFFIC ON A FOUR-LANE DIVIDED CITY STREET IN ATLANTA, GA, ON 3/17/13, A SUNDAY AFTERNOON, WITHOUT WARNING OF ANY KIND, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STOPPED. OF COURSE, I HAD NO POWER OR POWER STEERING, BUT FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR OVER TO THE SHOULDER SAFELY (FORTUNATELY THERE WAS A SHOULDER). THE FORD EMERGENCY ROAD SERVICE SENT A TOW TRUCK, WHICH TOWED THE CAR TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER. THE NEXT DAY THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPT. FOUND THAT THE FUEL SENDER HAD BECOME DETACHED FROM THE FUEL PUMP. OF COURSE, WITHOUT FUEL, THE ENGINE STOPPED. THEY RE-ATTACHED THE SENDER, AND I HAVE HAD NO FURTHER PROBLEM. EVERYTHING WAS HANDLED PROMPTLY AND PROPERLY BY FORD. THERE WAS NO CHARGE, OF COURSE, AS THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, HAD THIS FAILURE OCCURRED JUST FIVE MINUTES EARLIER, I WAS IN THE INSIDE LANE OF A BUSY INTERSTATE HIGHWAY (I-285) GOING 70 MPH. I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW I WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO NAVIGATE THE CAR TO SAFETY ACROSS FOUR LANES OF TRAFFIC WITH NO POWER - OR ELSE STOP IN THE INSIDE LANE I WAS IN AND PRAY I DIDN'T GET HIT BEFORE THE TOW TRUCK CAME. A SIMPLE SOLUTION TO A POTENTIALLY DEADLY PROBLEM. I DOUBT THAT ANY ROUTINE TESTING OR MAINTENANCE WOULD HAVE REVEALED THIS POTENTIAL DETACHMENT. IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THERE IS A POTENTIAL FLAW IN THE WAY THESE VITALLY IMPORTANT PARTS ARE ATTACHED. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS POTENTIAL BEARS INVESTIGATION BY THE FHTSA.

I DID BUY A BRAND NEW 2013 FORD EDGE AND TODAY IT HAS REACH 16,000KM I HAVE A BIG PROBLEM AND THE DEALER DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. WHEN I GO LIKE 80KM PER HOUR I GET AN EXHAUST SMELL IN THE CABIN. I BOUGHT MY EDGE IN EL SALVADOR FROM A DEALER AND IT'S BEEN LIKE 6 TIMES THEY HAVE CHECKED IT AND NO SOLUTION FOR THE BAD SMELL. I HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS BECAUSE I GET DIZZY AFTER A WHILE. I HAVE SPEND $40,000 FOR THIS VEHICLE AND WOULD LIKE A SOLUTION, PLEASEEEE. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE ATTEMPTED TO HAVE HIS VEHICLE REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V002000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) BUT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED SINCE THE FAILURE WAS REPORTED IN JANUARY OF 2014, THERE SHOULD BE A REMEDY AVAILABLE BEFORE APRIL OF 2014. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE TIME FOR REPAIR. THERE ARE NO FAILURES AT THIS TIME.
DRIVING MY GRANDSON TO HIS BASKETBALL GAME LAST FRIDAY EVENING, DRIVING ON THE HWY AT 60 MPH, MY POWER STEERING COMPLETELY QUIT. I HAD TO DRAG THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE IT TOTALLY SHUT DOWN. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE POWER STEERING BELT BROKE AND WRAPPED AROUND THE CRANK SHAFT. I HAD NO WARNING AT ALL, NOTHING SHOWED ON THE DASH TO CHECK ENGINE OR SERVICE. VERY TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE, LUCKILY WE DIDN'T HAVE AN ACCIDENT WHILE TRYING TO GET IT OFF THE HWY. *TR

THE DRIVER'S DOOR AND RIGHT REAR 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, IT ALERTS THE DRIVER TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. FORD CATEGORIZES THE DOOR AJAR WARNING UNDER 'SAFETY' IN ITS EXTENDED WARRANTY PLANS, SO I WOULD CONCLUDE THAT NOT KNOWING WHETHER THE DOOR IS ACTUALLY AJAR OR NOT IS, IN FACT, A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS THE MESSAGE KEPT COMING ON THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS NOT WORKING. THE ON/OFF LIGHT SAID OFF ABOUT 98% OF THE TIME. AND A ICON LIGHT IN THE DASHBOARD WOULD OCCASIONALLY COME ON. THE MESSAGE SAID THE SENSOR WAS BLOCKED, BUT THERE WASN'T ANY CHANGE IN THE AREA AROUND THE SEAT. WENT TO SERVICE THE 2/19 AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. IT ACTUALLY TURNED BACK ON WHEN I DROVE IN TO DROP IT AT SERVICE, OF COURSE. BUT WE DID GO ABOUT 3 DAYS WITH NO AIRBAG FOR SOME REASON. JUST FELT I SHOULD REPORT THIS BEFORE IT BECOMES A PROBLEM. *TR
ARRIVING HOME THE EVENING OF FEBRUARY 15, 2014 MY TWO SONS (BOTH ADULTS) SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING WHEN WE GOT OUT OF THE CAR AT OUR HOUSE. UPON INSPECTION, THEY NOTICED THE RUBBER COVER OVER THE POSITIVE POST ON THE BATTERY HAD MELTED SLIGHTLY. I CALLED THE NEAREST FORD DEALER MONDAY MORNING (2/17/14) TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT OUT. THEY DISCOVERED THAT THE WRONG CIRCUIT BREAKER ASSEMBLY HAD BEEN INSTALLED ON THE BATTERY. AND TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THE FUSE WAS BY-PASSED WITH THE USE OF A LARGE PAPER CLIP. TALK ABOUT RIGGING SOMETHING UP!!! THIS PAPER CLIP HAD GOTTEN SO HOT IT EVEN BURNED A HOLE IN THE TOP OF THE BATTERY ABOUT THE SIZE OF A QUARTER. I HAVE A PHOTO. THIS WAS ONLY DISCOVERED WHEN THE NEW CIRCUIT BREAKER ASSEMBLY WAS ABOUT TO BE INSTALLED. IT WAS ALL HIDDEN BY THE RUBBER COVER. WE DID NOT THINK TO INSPECT THIS UPON PURCHASE IN JULY, 2013. IT WAS A BRAND NEW CAR! THIS WAS A TRAGEDY WAITING TO HAPPEN. FORTUNATELY IT DID NOT. BUT SOMEONE AT EITHER THE MANUFACTURER OR THE DEALERSHIP RIGGED THIS INSTEAD OF PUTTING THE PROPER PART ON IT. *TR
I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DON DAVIDSON FORD DEALERSHIP IN ARLINGTON TEXAS BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN BREAKING WEIRD, SMELLING FUNNY, SHAKING HARD & LOSING SPEED ON THE FREEWAY(ALL AT ONCE) WHICH IT DOES SPORADICALLY. THE SAID THEY CAN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM SO THERE'S NOTHING WRONG & GAVE IT BACK TO ME ON FRIDAY. I WENT STRAIGHT TO THE MALL & IT DID IT AGAIN SO I TOOK IT BACK IMMEDIATELY. THEY KEPT IT FOR A FEW HOURS & TRIED TO GIVE IT BACK AGAIN, SAYING THAT I DROVE WITH THE EBRAKE ON (WHICH IT WASN'T). NOW I LEFT MY CAR THERE, THEY HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING & I'M PAYING FOR A RENTAL FOR THE FOURTH DAY BECAUSE I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY OWN CAR. FORD CORPORATE OFFICE TOLD ME IT WAS MY DECISION TO DRIVE IT OR NOT & THEY CAN'T HELP. ON THE TRIP TO THE MALL I HEARD A LOUD NOISE WHEN I BRAKE & NOW THE ROTORS ARE MESSED UP TOO. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, I STILL OWE $34,000 ON MY 2013 FORD EDGE AND IT HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR BRAKE ISSUES BUT THEY WON'T HELP. *TR
PURCHASED 2013 FORD EDGE WITH 27600 MILES ON IT, WHEN TAKEN IN FOR FIRST OIL CHANGE AT 30600 MILES I NOTED POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL 1/2 INCH BELOW MINIMUM MARK AND MARKED RESERVOIR TANK AT THIS LOW LEVEL TO TRACK IT, WITH OIL CHANGE MY LOCAL SERVICE STATION FILLED IT UP TO1/2 WAY BETWEEN MAX AND MIN LINE IN AUGUST 2012. AFTER DRIVING VEHICLE ANOTHER 5000 MILES NOTED FLUID LEVEL AGAIN AT MINIMUM LINE, SET UP APPT AT LOCAL FORD GARAGE 2-3-14 AND VOICED MY CONCERN ABOUT A LEAK, AND SHOWED SERVICE MANAGER LEVEL AT MIN MARK AND EXPLAINED I PRIOR NOTED LOW LEVEL AS INDICATED BY PREVIOUS LINE I MARKED TO SHOW HOW LOW FLUID ACTUALLY WAS AND THAT I HAD IT FILLED AS MENTIONED ABOVE. ON 2-3-14 APPOINTMENT THEY CHECKED VEHICLE FOR LEAK AND SAID THERE WAS NONE. TOOK VEHICLE IN TO MY LOCAL SERVICE GARAGE (NOT MY LOCAL FORD GARAGE) ON 2-12-14 WITH 35750 MILES IN IT AND THEY FOUND LEAK OF HIGH PRESSURE HOSE AND POSSIBLE LEAK OF BANJO FITTING. WILL TAKE IN TO FORD GARAGE AGAIN SATURDAY 2-15-14 AS HAD ALREADY SET UP APPOINTMENT LAST WEEK BECAUSE HAVE HEARD HIGH PITCH SQUEAL ON OCCASION WHEN TURN STEERING WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT AND WANTED POWER STEERING CHECKED AGAIN, WITH BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY ABOUT TO EXPIRE IN 250 MILES, WONDER IF I'LL GET THE RUN AROUND AGAIN OR IF THEY WILL SEE THE LEAK NOW AND SERVICE THIS VEHICLE RIGHT. *TR
VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN AND APPROACHED A STOP SIGN. WHEN DRIVER ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES, THE ACCELERATOR WAS STUCK AND DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THE VEHICLE RAN THROUGH THE STOP SIGN, STRUCK A FENCE AND THEN 2 OTHER VEHICLES BEFORE COMING TO A STOP. *TR
HAVE NOTED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS THE ODOR OF FUEL/GASOLINE IN CLOSED CAB OF 2013 FORD EDGE AFTER STARTING VEHICLE. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME I START VEHICLE, BUT APPROX 10% OF STARTS IT DOES. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER TWICE AND THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NO FUEL LEAK. WELL, I HAVE CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE THE GASOLINE ODOR MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE THEY CHECKED IT. MY BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY WILL SOON EXPIRE AND I GET THE IMPRESSION WITH THE RUN AROUND I HAVE BEEN GETTING THAT FORD DOES NOT TAKE THIS COMPLAINT SERIOUS ENOUGH TO TRY A LITTLE HARDER TO FIND THE SOURCE AND FIX IT. THIS IS NOT AN ECO-BOOST ENGINE, IT IS A 3.5 LITER V6, QUESTIONING IF THIS COULD BE SAME PROBLEM FORD HAS HAD WITH MULTIPLE OTHER MODELS FUEL LINES, AFTER ALL THEY DO USE ALOT OF THE SAME PART IN MULTIPLE MODELS. *TR
NOTED LEAK OF FLUID FROM REAR OF VEHICLE OF MY 2013 FORD EDGE. TAKEN TO LOCAL FORD GARAGE, WAS TOLD IT WAS REAR DIFFERENTIAL VENT, SO THIS PART WAS REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THIS PROBLEM WAS A PRIOR RECALL. CONTINUED TO HAVE LEAK FROM REAR OF VEHICLE AFTER REPAIR WAS DONE, SO VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN AGAIN, THEY WERE ADVISED BY FORD THAT THE PRIOR FIX WAS THE REPAIR, AND THAT THEY SHOULD NEXT CHECK THE FLUID LEVEL, WHICH MY LOCAL GARAGE HAD ALSO DONE, FORD THEN ADVISED THEM TO UNDERFILL THE FLUID TO BELOW THE DIFFERENTIAL VENT LEVEL AS THE CORRECTION. MY QUESTION IS THIS, IS IT SAFE TO DO THIS OR WILL THIS DAMAGE MY VEHICLE OR CAUSE A SAFETY ISSUE IF MY VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE ADEQUATE FLUID FOR THE PARTS TO WORK PROPERLY. *TR
WE WERE RETURNING HOME VIA I55 AND I TURNED ON THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL AND THE PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM. THREE TIMES IN THE SPACE OF AN HOUR, WITHOUT ANY VEHICLE IN FRONT OF US, THE VEHICLE BRAKE ITSELF. THERE WAS A TRACTOR AND TRAILER NEXT TO US AND CARS BEHIND US ON THE TWO LANE HIGHWAY. AFTER THE THIRD INCIDENT I TURNED OFF THE PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM BUT LEFT THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL ON. SOME TIME LATER WITH DIFFERENT VEHICLES, BUT THE SAME TYPES IN THE SAME RELATIVE POSITIONS, THE CAR BRAKE VIOLENTLY, THE WARNING LIGHTS IN THE WINDSHIELD WERE BLINKING AND A SIREN WAS SOUNDING AND THERE WAS NO ONE IN FRONT OF US AGAIN. THE ATTEMPTED STOP BY THE CAR WAS SO VIOLENT IT THREW US FORWARD. WE HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR SINCE AND IT HAS BEEN AT THE FORD DEALER WAITING FOR A DIAGNOSIS AND A PART THAT MAY FIX THE ISSUE. THE EDGE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER SINCE THE THE 27TH OF DECEMBER AND NO ONE HAS ANY IDEA AS TO WHEN THE "PART" MAY BE IN. WE TOOK POSSESSION OF THE CAR ON DECEMBER 20TH, 2014. I CONTACTED FORD ASKING FOR A BUY BACK AND AM WAITING TO HEAR. BOTH THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER AND A FORD FIELD ENGINEER EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUES. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE AIR RECIRCULATION WOULD INDEPENDENTLY SHUT OFF AFTER FIVE MINUTES OF USE. THE FAILURE CAUSED INFLAMMATION OF THE CONTACT'S ASTHMATIC SYMPTOMS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT WAS THE WAY THE MANUFACTURER PROGRAMMED THE AIR RECIRCULATION SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000. UPDATED 02/25/14*LJ
I WAS DRIVING TO WORK 6:30 AM SMALL INCLINE AND VEHICLE JERKED AND STOPPED ,I PUT IT INTO PARK PUSHED THE RED OK BUTTON RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE STRAIGHT TO DEALER. THEY SAID IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY AND FIXED IT AND CHANGED THE CODES THE THROTTLE WAS OUT OF RANGE. *TR
I WAS DRIVING MY COMPANY VEHICLE WHEN SUDDENLY THE MOTOR LOST ANY WAY TO INCREASE THE SPEED AND LITTLE BY LITTLE THE SPEED WENT DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE TOWARDS THE RIGHT LINE. THE VEHICLE WAS JUST SHAKING, I DECIDED TO TURN OFF THE MOTOR AND TURN IT ON AGAIN AND THE PROBLEM DISAPPEAR. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE ALREADY IN MY EDGE. THE TRUCK IS ALREADY AT THE DEALER BUT ACCORDING TO A CALL I GOT ON SATURDAY THEY DO NOT KNOW THAT THE CAR DO HAS. THEY HAVE MADE SOME TESTS BUT SO FAR NO FAILURE HAS APPEARED. *TR
CAR STOPPED RUNNING AS MY WIFE,DAUGHTER,AND MYSELF WERE ON OUR WAY HOME. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING AND WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE HWY. AFTER A FEW MINUTES THE CAR RESTARTED AND WE CONTINUED HOME. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND LEFT IT FOR ABOUT A WEEK. THE SERVICE REP. I SPOKE WITH SAID THEY COULD FIND NO TROUBLE CODE AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I ASKED IF HE HAD SPOKEN WITH FORD ENGINEERING ABOUT THIS AND HE SAID NO. I ASKED HIM TO AND HE SAID HE WOULD. HE CALLED FORD ENGINEERING AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NO SOLUTION AND DENIED A PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD TO RETURN MY LOANER CAR. I DID SO .A DIFFERENT SERVICE REP. WAITED ON ME THIS TIME.WHEN HE BROUGHT ME THE CAR HE ASKED IF MY PROBLEM WAS FIXED AND I SAID NO .HE ASKED ME THE PROBLEM AND I TOLD HIM.HE THEN TOLD ME THAT HE HAD A LADY WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HER CAR,A 2012 FORD EDGE. HE CONTACTED FORD AND THEY TOLD HIM TO CHANGE PROGRAMMING. THEY DID THIS TWO TIMES AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTED.SHE THEN TRADED THE CAR WITH 32000 MI. ON IT FOR A NEW VEHICLE. I TALKED WITH SEVERAL FORD REPS AND FOR THE MOST PART SEEMED UNCONCERNED. I EXPRESSED MY SAFETY CONCERNS TO THEM TO NO AVAIL. I WAS TREATED AS COLLATERAL DAMAGE. *TR
OUR FORD EDGE KEEPS THINKING THE DRIVERS DOOR IS OPEN!!! ITS NOT A SECURE FEELING WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING OR STANDING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE LIGHTS GO ON AND THE PANEL IS SAYING YOUR DOORS IS OPEN. *TR
HETER ON LOWER PART THAT. YOU SIT ON GETS EXCESSIVELY HOT AND BURNEDMY BUTT. DEALER THINKS IT COULD BE A SHORT IN THE WIRING
ON 10/21/13 AT 6:30 AM I WAS DRIVING ON MY DAILY ROUTE TO WORK ALONG INTERSTATE ROUTE 95-SOUTH. AS I WAS DRIVING OVER THE HIGH LEVEL BRIDGE IN PORTSMOUTH, NH, I HEARD A VERY LOUD BANG. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT STRUCK ANY OBJECT, NOR HAD ANY OBJECT STRUCK THE VEHICLE. I LOOKED UP AND SAW THAT THE ENTIRE MOONROOF HAD COMPLETELY SHATTERED IN PLACE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OFF THE NEXT EXIT. WHEN I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND INSPECTED ITS EXTERIOR, I CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT ANYTHING HAD HIT MY CAR. THERE WAS NO SIGN OF ANY OBJECT HAVING STRUCK THE MOON ROOF. THERE WERE NO LOCALIZED IMPACT CRACKS OR PUNCTURE HOLES ANYWHERE, YET, A STRIP ALONG ALL FOUR EDGES OF THE MOON ROOF HAD SEPARATED, WHILE THE CENTER AREA STAYED INTACT, BUT WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED. I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE PORTSMOUTH, NH FORD DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE MANAGER LOOKED AT MY VEHICLE'S MOON ROOF AND AGREED THAT THE DAMAGE DID NOT APPEAR TO BE CAUSED BY SOMETHING HITTING MY CAR. FMC HAS DOCUMENTATION OF HIS STATEMENT. SM TOOK PICTURES OF THE MOON ROOF AND SUBMITTED A TO FMC. FMC IMMEDIATELY DENIED THE REQUEST FOR REPLACEMENT. IN THE MEANTIME, THE SERVICE MANAGER ESCALATED THE REQUEST BECAUSE HE FELT VERY STRONGLY THAT THIS WAS NOT A RESULT OF SOMETHING HITTING MY MOON ROOF. THE REQUEST WAS ONCE AGAIN DENIED. MR.XXX HAS CONTINUED TO MAKE CALLS ON MY BEHALF THIS WEEK TO FMC, ASKING HOW ANYONE CAN MAKE A DETERMINATION WITHOUT SENDING SOMEONE TO INSPECT THE MOON ROOF FIRSTHAND. HE WAS REPEATEDLY TOLD FOR THREE DAYS THAT FORD WAS WORKING ON COMING UP WITH A RESOLUTION. ON 10/23/13 FORD CALLED AND OFFERED TO PAY FOR HALF THE REPLACEMENT COST OF THE MOON ROOF. DUE TO THE LACK OF SERVICE FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY, I HAD TO SUBMIT A CLAIM THROUGH MY PERSONAL CAR INSURANCE.
INTERNAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE IN THE LEFT FRONT DOOR LATCH WITH INTEGRAL SWITCH THAT SENDS A FALSE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL TO THE DASHBOARD INSTRUMENTS AND AUDIBLE ALARM SYSTEM. BEGINS AS AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE THEN IN A FEW DAYS BECOMES CONSTANT. ANNOYING AT THE LEAST. DISTRACTING AT THE WORST, ESPECIALLY FOR LESS EXPERIENCED DRIVERS. MY REPAIR WAS OUT OF ANY WARRANTY DUE TO MILEAGE. *TR
THIS IS A 2013 FORD EDGE LIMITED. IT HAS 13,000 MILES AND IS 15 MONTHS OLD. THIS VEHICLE HAS A MYFORD TOUCH SCREEN AND SYSTEM. THIS SYSTEM HAS BEEN GIVING US PROBLEMS SINCE WE GOT THE EDGE. ON SEPTEMBER 17, 2013 MY WIFE WAS STOPPED IN A PARKING LOT TRYING TO GET THE MYFORD TOUCH SYSTEM TO MAKE A CALL FROM HER CELL PHONE. THIS CELL PHONE HAS BEEN PAIRED TO THE MYFORD TOUCH SYSTEM SINCE DAY 1 BUT REFUSED TO RECOGNIZE THE PHONE TO MAKE A CALL. SHE WAS TOUCHING THE SCREEN TO MAKE THE CALL AND THE SCREEN CRACKED. THE SYSTEMS THAT ARE PART OF THE SCREEN WILL NOT WORK NOW DUE TO THE CRACKED SCREEN. THE DRIVER IS FORCED TO MANUALLY WORK AROUND THE SYSTEM CONTROLS SINCE THE TOUCH SCREEN WILL NOT WORK. FORD REGIONAL SERVICE REFUSES TO REPLACE THE CRACKED TOUCH SCREEN AS A WARRANTY ISSUE. THE VEHICLE IS WELL WITHIN THE WARRANTY PERIOD. FORD REQUIRES $1,500 TO REPLACE THE CRACKED TOUCH SCREEN. FORD HAS MULTITUDES OF ISSUES WITH THIS MYFORD TOUCH SYSTEM WHICH THE TOUCH SCREEN IS A PART OF THE OVERALL SYSTEM. THIS CRACKED SCREEN NEEDS TO WORK TO MAKE THE VEHICLE AS SAFE TO DRIVE AS ADVERTISED BY FORD. FORD IS SIMPLY NOT COVERING THE REPLACEMENT OF AN ITEM THAT IS NEEDED FOR THE VEHICLE TO PERFORM SAFELY. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE THE ROAD SUFFICIENTLY AND ALSO EXHIBITED AN ABNORMAL YELLOW TINT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS BUT THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE OPERATING AS DESIGNED AND THERE WERE NO REPLACEMENT BULBS FOR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 619. UPDATED 10/29/13*LJ UPDATED 10/30/2013 *JS
ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND COOLANT HIGH TEMPERATURE SAID ON THE DASHBOARD. MY WIFE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME AND I CHECK THE ENGINE COOLANT RESERVOIR AND FOUND IT EMPTY. I WENT AND GOT MY FLASHLIGHT AND SAW COOLANT LEAK UNDER THE ENGINE WHERE THE ENGINE BASE COVER IS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE TO MY SALESMAN ANDREW AND HE ADVISED ME TO PURCHASE A COOLANT AT AUTOZONE AND KEEP THE RECEIPT AND BRING THE CAR TO THE DEALER FIRST THING IN THE MORNING SO THEY COULD HAVE IT CHECK. I AM JUST VERY DISAPPOINTED DUE TO THE CAR HAS BARELY BROKEN IN 744 MILE ONLY AND JUST 3 WEEKS OLD AND I AM GETTING THIS KIND OF PROBLEM. I HOPE THIS IS THE FIRST AND LAST OF MY PROBLEM WITH FORD. *JS
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 LEFT 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 WITH NO FURTHER ISSUE. 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
WE ARE HAVING A EXHAUST SMELL IN THE CAB OF OUR NEW 2013 FORD EDGE. WE FIRST NOTICED IT WHEN PASSING ANOTHER CAR QUICKLY AND THEN LETTING OFF ON THE GAS AND A FEW SECONDS LATER WE GET A EXHAUST SMELL IN THE CAB. THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. WE HAVE ALSO NOTICED IT WHEN WE TOO A 500 MILE FREEWAY TRIP. I HAVE HAD IT INTO DEALER FOUR TIMES. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE CABIN AIR EXTRACTORS TWICE, REPLACED THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, APPLIED SEALANT TO BODY SEAMS, NO LUCK. THIS MAKES FOR A UNPLEASANT VEHICLE TO DRIVE AND CONCERNS OF BREATHING FUMES. I'M STILL WAITING TO BE CONTACTED ABOUT ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO FIX. I NO FORD IS HAVING THIS PROBLEMS WITH SOME OF THEIR OTHER MODELS TO.
A CRACK DEVELOPED IN THE LOWER LEFT CORNER OF THE WINDSHIELD (COULD HAVE BEEN STARTED BY A ROCK STRIKE). EVERY TIME THE DEFROSTERS WERE RUN (IT WAS VERY COLD WEATHER), THE CRACK WOULD SPREAD. IT SPREAD ALL THE WAY TO THE OPPOSITE RIGHT CORNER IN LESS THAN A WEEK. *TR
MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING OUR 2 MONTHS OLD CAR THAT TIME. TOGETHER WITH OUR KID, WE WERE THANKFUL IT HAPPENED JUST AFTER WE EXITED THE FREEWAY. AS WE STOPPED ON THE FIRST TRAFFIC LIGHT JUST AFTER THE FREEWAY EXIT, WE SMELLED SOMETHING UNUSUAL BUT PROCEEDED TO THE NEXT TRAFFIC LIGHT AND THERE THE ENGINE STARTED TO RAISE ITS RPM THEN WHEN HE PUMPED ON THE GAS THE CAR WONT GO FORWARD AND STARTED TO LOWER ITS RPM TO ALMOST ZERO AND THEN DIED RIGHT ON THE TRAFFIC LIGHT WITH 1860 MILEAGE. HE RIGHT AWAY SWITCH THE HAZARD LIGHT BUT FORTUNATELY NO ONE IS BEHIND US. HE TURNED THE KEY TO OFF AND SECONDS LATER SWITCH IT ON TO START THE CAR, IT STARTED SMOOTHLY BUT LIVING AN ENGINE CHECK LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD. WE PARKED AND CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, AT THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID WE REFUELED IT WITH WRONG GASOLINE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS, AFTER TWO MONTHS OF FILLING IT! I DON'T BELIEVED THEIR CONCLUSION. COULD YOU PLEASE HELP MAKE ACTION WITH ALL THIS PROBLEM. IM AFRAID AND NOT CONFIDENT WITH THIS CAR. *TR
THE 1ST TIME MY ENGINE SHUT OFF WAS AFTER MAKING A RIGHT TURN INTO A NEIGHBORHOOD DRIVING SLOWLY LOOKING FOR AN ADDRESS. THE SECOND TIME WAS WHILE PULLING INTO MY OFFICE PARKING LOT; AGAIN AT A SLOW SPEED AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. BOTH INSTANCES MADE STEERING IMPOSSIBLE. I TOOK MY EDGE BACK TO THE DEALER FOR BOTH OCCURRENCES, HOWEVER THEY CLAIM ONLY ONCE!! I WAS TOLD THE 1ST TIME THAT THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THIS MOST RECENT INSTANCE THEY KEPT MY CAR FOR 2 DAYS, DROVE IT INTERMITTENTLY FOR 91 MILES AND COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM, THEREFORE TELLING ME SORRY OH WELL, IF WE CANNOT PRODUCE THE PROBLEM THERE IS NOTHING TO FIX. I AM OUTRAGED AND DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO FROM HERE... *TR
I BOUGHT MY USED FORD EDGE WITH LESS THAN 20000 MILES. I WAS EXCITED TO HAVE A SONY MEDIA CENTER, IT HAD GREAT SOUND. BUT I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH IT FROM THE BEGINNING AND CONTINUE TO HAVE ISSUES. WITH BLUETOOTH MY PHONE WILL NOT CONNECT OR LOOSE CONNECTION FOR NO REASON. THE OTHER DAY IT MADE A PHONE CALL WITHOUT ANY COMMANDS, AND NO I DO NOT HAVE VOICE REC. SET UP OR ON. EVEN WHEN I USE THE SYS TO START A PHONE CALL, IT 'CALL FAILS' OR I WILL BE ON THE LINE, BUT HEAR NOTHING. I DON'T TALK MUCH IN MY CAR, I DON'T KNOW WHO IS LISTENING. LOL ALSO I HAVE A SCREEN TO THE RIGHT OF MY DASH & IT DOES NOT CORRELATE WITH MY MAIN SCREEN. WHEN I REQUEST TO MAKE A 'QUICK CALL' OFF MY STEERING WHEEL IT HAS A DIFFERENT LIST THEN MY MAIN SCREEN. SO DUMB!! I ALSO USE AN IPOD VIA USB. AND WHEN I TURN OF THE CAR AND TURN IT BACK ON THE SYS DOES NOT GO BACK TO THE IPOD, ONLY THE RADIO TURNS ON. THEN I HAVE TO MANUALLY TELL THE SYS TO CONNECT TO THE IPOD AND REDO MY SELECTIONS/RANDOMS. WHICH TAKES FOREVER TO GO THROUGH THE PROPS. THE SONY SYS SUCKS!!! ONE LAST THING, I WOULD LOVE IF I HAD A BACK WINDOW INSTEAD OF JUST A DOOR. I MISS THAT, WHY DID THEY GET RID OF THAT? *TR
WE WERE INVOLVED IN A FOUR CAR CRASH. WE WERE THE THIRD CAR. THE TRAFFIC WAS A LITTLE HEAVY AND STOP AND GO. THE TWO CARS IN FRONT OF US STOPPED FAST AND WE DID TOO. THEN WE LOOKED IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SAW A HONDA ODYSSEY COMING AT US AT ABOUT 35-40 MPH. THE DRIVER SLAMMED INTO THE REAR OF OUR CAR. THE CAR STARTED ON FIRE AS SOON AS WE WERE HIT. I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND I COULD SEE THE FLAMES AND SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE CAR. MY HUSBAND JUMPED OUT OF THE CAR AND I COULDN'T OPEN MY DOOR. MY HUSBAND THEN HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON HIS SIDE AND THEN CAME AROUND TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AND GOT ME OUT OF THE CAR. I WAS CRYING AND TERRIFIED. A BUSINESS MAN CAME FROM ACROSS THE STREET AND TRIED TO PUT THE FIRE OUT WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER. HE HAD TO RETURN BACK TO HIS BUSINESS AND OUR NEW CAR WAS STILL ON FIRE. THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME AND PUT OUT THE FIRE. THE CAR WAS THEN TOWED AWAY. I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL. I WAS SORE FROM WHERE THE SEATBELT WAS AND FROM BEING SO BADLY JERKED BACK AND FORTH. I AM STILL RECEIVING SOME MEDICAL CARE. THE DRIVER OF THE HONDA ODYSSEY WAS FOUND AT FAULT AND ISSUED A TICKET. WE HAVE YET TO FIND OUT WHY THIS CAR STARTED ON FIRE. NO ONE AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP COULD OR WOULD ANSWER THAT QUESTION. CAN YOU FIND THE ANSWER THIS QUESTION? IS THERE A DEFECT IN THIS CAR? THREE OLDER VEHICLES IN THIS ACCIDENT AND THE ONLY CAR THAT STARTS ON FIRE IS OUR BRAND NEW 2013 FORD EDGE WITH 5,000 MILES ON IT. FORD SHOULD STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS A PROBLEM WHEN A BRAND NEW CAR STARTS ON FIRE. *TR
1.DRIVER'S DOOR ARM REST AND CENTER ARM REST DO NOT ALIGN UP, WHEN BOTH ARMS ARE ON THE ARM RESTS. 2.DRIVE CONTROL KNOW IS IN THE WAY AND MAKES IT HARD TO USE CENTER LOWER ELECTRIC CONSOLE. 3.TURN SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN YOU USE IT TO CHANGE LANES, HAVE TO RESET IT. 4.BOTH FRONT DOORS ,LOWER STORAGE AREA, IS TOO LONG, AS THINGS TEND TO GET STUCK IN THE BACK OF THE STORAGE AREA. 5.CENTER STORAGE AREA IS HARD TO GET TO, AND ALSO THINGS GET BEHIND THE CONSOLE AND YOU CANNOT GET TO THEM. 6.NO TRUNK COVER, HOOK UPS. 7.BACK SEAT DID NOT GO ALL THE WAY DOWN. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH THE CHROME ON THE STEERING WHEEL WAS BLINDED THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS VISION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO RECOMMENDED SHE TINT THE WINDOWS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 2,000. *TR
2 WEEKS AFTER I BOUGHT MY EDGE I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARALLEL PARK AND WHEN MY ENGINE FAILURE LIGHT FLASHED AND MY CAR JUST TURNED OFF. I HAVE A PUSH BUTTON START SO I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE AND ATTEMPT TO TURN THE CAR ON AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. SO AGAIN IN APRIL AND AGAIN A WEEK AGO ONCE WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON A NORMAL STREET (45 MPH) AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY (75 MPH) MY CAR JUST TURNED OFF AND STATED ENGINE FAILURE LOW OIL. THE 2ND TIME IT HAPPENED MY CAR HAD 4,000 MILES ON IT AND 5,000 MILES THE 3RD TIME. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP MY ISSUES AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM AFTER HAVING MY CAR FOR JUST 24 HOURS. YOUR RIGHT, IT'S AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE SO IT'S NOT JUST GOING TO HAPPEN WHILE YOU TOOK MY CAR AND DROVE IT 100 MILES. NONE THE LESS I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BE DEALING WITH THIS IN A VEHICLE I PAID OVER 40K FOR. THE OWNER OF AVIS FORD, [XXX] TOLD ME IT WASN'T THAT BIG OF A DEAL BECAUSE IT ONLY HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN 5 MONTHS. MY CAR TURNING OFF WHILE DRIVING IS A HUGE DEAL AND I COULD HAVE DIED ANY OF THOSE TIMES. ENGINE FAILURES IN A VEHICLE THAT IS BRAND NEW IS A HUGE DEAL.

ONE WEEK AFTER PURCHASING THE NEW FORD EDGE I PARKED ON A HILL. APPROXIMATELY 1 HOUR AFTER EATING LUNCH, I LEFT A RESTAURANT WITH MY FAMILY. I PRESSED THE BRAKE BEFORE TURNING THE KEY AND THE BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I DROVE THE CAR HOME NOT KNOWING IF THE BRAKES WOULD GO OUT COMPLETELY. I HAD NO SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES AS I DROVE HOME. I CALLED FORD AND TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A CHECKUP. FORD STATED THAT THE FORD EDGE IS ENGINEERED TO ALLOW FOR THIS. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INCIDENTS WITH THE BAKES GOING TO FLOOR WHILE STARTING THE CAR AND WHILE STOPPED ON A HILL. FORD INSISTS THIS IS NOT A CONCERN. I AM CONCERNED AND TOLD THEM I DO NOT WANT THE CAR. THE REFUSED TO DISCUSS THIS ANY FURTHER. *TR
FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE REFERENCE # [XXX] 2013 FORD EDGE VIN [XXX] ON THE MORNING OF APRIL 9, 2013 MY WIFE ([XXX]) WAS DRIVING TO WORK AT AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. SHE WAS APPROACHING THE SCHOOL AT ABOUT 20 MPH ON LEVEL STREET WHEN SHE NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. SHE SOON REALIZED THAT THE ENGINE HAD STALLED. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO CHILDREN PRESENT AND SHE WAS ABLE TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A STOP WITHOUT INCIDENT. SHE STARTED THE VEHICLE AND PULLED INTO THE SCHOOL PARKING LOT. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THE DEALER (TOWN AND COUNTRY FORD OF EVANSVILLE INDIANA) AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT IN SO THAT THEY COULD FIND THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THEY COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE AND TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK IN THE NEXT TIME THAT THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. I ALSO INFORMED THEM OF A PROBLEM WITH THE SEAT MOVING FOR NO KNOWN REASON AND ABOUT GETTING MUCH LESS THAN THE STATED GAS MILEAGE ON PURE HIGHWAY DRIVING. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THESE PROBLEMS EITHER. I REQUESTED THE NUMBER OF SOMEONE THAT I COULD CALL TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THESE ISSUES. I WAS GIVEN THE NUMBER OF THE CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT. BECAUSE OF THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE PROBLEM THE INITIAL CONTACT REFERRED ME TO A MANAGER. INITIALLY THE MANAGER OFFERED NO MORE THAT THE DEALERSHIP, THAT IS TO BRING IT IN AFTER IT FAILS AGAIN. I EXPLAINED MY CONCERNS ABOUT THE SAFETY ISSUES OF LOSING CONTROL AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED OR IN A SCHOOL ZONE. HE STATED THAT THERE WERE NO OTHER REPORTS OF THIS PROBLEM. (I WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO BE KILLED BEFORE THEY GET CONCERNED ABOUT A SAFETY ISSUE.) AFTER AN EXTENSIVE HEATED DISCUSSION HE AGREED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE FURTHER EVALUATED AT THE DEALERSHIP. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT WAS EXTREMELY LOW CAUSING CONCERN THAT IF THE AIR BAG WAS TO DEPLOY, IT WOULD STRIKE HER IN THE FACE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A SEAT ADJUSTMENT SWITCH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THEY COULD NOT ALTER THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 2,000. *TR UPDATED 4/29/13 *CN UPDATED 05/23/2013 *JS
THE VEHICLE HESITATES AT THE TIME OF ACCELERATION AND THEN WILL SURGE. THE SURGING OCCURS AT LO SPEEDS AND IS ,UNFORTUNATELY, INTERMITTENT. A REAL PROBLEM IN TIGHT PARKING LOTS/PARKING STRUCTURES. ALMOST HIT A FAMILY IN A PARKING LOT WITH A SURGE OF SPEED. THE HESITATIONS CAN OCCUR AT LO OR HIGH SPEEDS WHEN YOU ACCELERATE. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. DON'T KNOW IF IT IS TRANSMISSION OR ACCELERATOR? BUT IT IS DANGEROUS. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE EXTREMELY BRIGHT, CAUSING OTHER DRIVERS TO BECOME SLIGHTLY BLIND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE LIGHT MAY HAVE NEEDED AN ADJUSTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 185.
THE AUTOMATIC TRUNK HAS NO SENSOR FOR ITEMS OR PEOPLE IN THE WAY. WHEN YOU HIT THE CLOSE BUTTON, IT CONTINUES TO CLOSE DESPITE SOMEONE OR SOMETHING IN ITS PATH. IT HAS NO SENSOR TO RETRACT OR STOP CLOSING. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONSIDERING THE SPEED AND WEIGHT OF THE DOOR. I WORRY THAT MY CHILD WILL GET CAUGHT IN THE DOOR AS MY SPOUSE AND I HAVE BEEN HIT BY THE DOOR ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. *TR
PURCHASED 2013 FORD EDGE SPORT ON JULY 14TH. I'VE HAD POSSESSION OF THE CAR FOR THREE WEEKS AS OF THIS COMPLAINT. THE CAR REQUIRED SERVICE EVERY SINGLE WEEK SINCE I'VE HAD THE CAR. THE LAST INCIDENT WAS ON AUGUST 8TH. I STARTED THE CAR, AND MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. AS THE LIGHTS APPEARED, THE CAR VIOLENTLY SHUDDERED, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STIFF AND DIFFICULT TO PRESS DOWN. THE STEERING COLUMN ALSO SHUDDERED, AND THE WHEEL WAS DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THIS OCCURRED AT A SUPERMARKET PARKING LOT LESS THAN THREE BLOCKS AWAY FROM MY HOME. I CALLED MY HUSBAND, WHO REMAINED ON THE PHONE LINE VIA SPEAKERPHONE AS I SLOWLY COASTED THE CAR HOME. I DROVE THE CAR, COASTING THE WAY BACK HOME WITH THE HAZARD LIGHTS ON, SO AS NOT TO HAVE TO USE THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE THEY REPLACED MAJOR SECTIONS OF THE STEERING COLUMN. THE SERVICE MANAGER INFORMED US OF THIS REPAIR, SAYING THAT HE'S NEVER SEEN SUCH A MAJOR MANUFACTURER DEFECT IN A BRAND NEW CAR. THEY MADE THE REPAIR, BUT I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY NOT BE A UNIQUE SITUATION. I AM ALSO CONCERNED THAT BECAUSE THIS MAKE OF CAR IS SO NEW, THAT OTHER PROBLEMS MAY BE OCCURRING THAT HAVEN'T BEEN LOGGED YET... *TR
