The owner/driver of this vehicle was injured by this latch on 6/6/2021, and suffered a finger laceration which required bandaging but not stitches.

Doors won't lock, open or latch by model year
What owners say
Door ajar light continually went on and off while in motion whether on a highway or city street. Noticed it also went on during left turns. Door locks on all doors would click on and off at stops. I wasn't sure that doors were locked with my children in the car. Internal lights would also go on an off. Common issue on the internet with ford edges. It's all over and for years. I have young children and had to get the issue fixed at a cost of $542.83. I believe ford needs to pay for this safety issue. The part number to replace was the latch part number 8t4z 78264a27 a. So a new door latch needed to be installed along with the repair of a wire in the door harness near the lh side of the door speaker. I am the original owner of this vehicle.
Passenger side rear door will not open unless released from the outside. This vehicle is a takata airbag recall, I have rental from ford, and I would like this issue addressed when the airbag replacement becomes available. I believe it to be a safety hazard. No one is driving this vehicle.
On the stated date, my son pulled the handle to release the passenger side front door and the door did not open. I have traced the problem to a defective door latch mechanism. The cable is intact and the problem is inside the door latch. I am of the opinion that this is a safety issue and not one that I the consumer should have to bear the burden of parts and labor.
2010 ford edge, passenger side inside door handle, chrome plastic paint comes off..when it comes off it leaves a sharp edge, thus resulting in three hand cuts in my family before discovering what caused it...one resulting in an 83 year old with finger wound. Took ford edge to dealer, who says this is happening to edges and fusions, and new inside door handle was ordered, in mean time duct tape covers the handle in a new care with less that 4,000 miles on it.
