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.

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.
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.
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 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.?
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 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.

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.
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.
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!!
Drivers side door ajar light stays on even when door is completely closed.
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 rear door is continually stating that it is ajar and all doors refuse to lock automatically when put in "drive".
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.
Door ajar light on leaving dome lights on causing battery to die and everytime stop at red light-chimes
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...
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!
