2013 Ford Edge lights complaints
Page 2 of 8: complaints 11 to 40 of 196, newest first, as owners wrote them.
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.
The door ajar light is illuminated for the rear passenger door. The overhead light stays for 10 mins or so when any door is opened and then closed. The door ajar alarm will beep when you start the car and put it into reverse or drive until you acknowledge the alarm and the light will stay on. There is no way to turn off the interior light. At night it makes it very hard to see to back out your vehicle.
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 the federal safety agency 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
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.
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.
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.
"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.
Door ajar indicated when door is shut. Dome light stays on, battery dies, door will not lock properly.
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.
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.
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.
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.
"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
Door ajar front passenger

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 ford edge. While driving 25 MPH, the headlights failed to illuminate without warning when they were activated. The contact called sunland ford (15330 palmdale rd, victorville, ca 92392) and the parts were ordered. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was 79,000.
Door is not registering that it is closed. Interior lights remain on and drain battery. The driver ajar switch needs to be recalled and fixed.
Driver side door gives warning of door ajar when door is cocompletely shut, causing the safety of my 5 year old and I to be compromised by the vehicles inability to lock the doors while in motion as well as leaving the interior lights on which impairs evening visability. Lastly it continues to provide a warning alarm which impairs drivers concentration and ability to maintain focus and safety on the road and on other drivers as well as driving safety procedures. Problem.is intermittent amd will happen when parked or randomly while driving. Problem persists even after slamming door, which can cause further damage to the proper functionality and safety of the vehicle that is controlled through the doors control pannel. If issue persists I plan on filing with the bbb in regards to this issue and the negligence of ford in this hazardous compromise on safety for those in the vehicle, especially in cases including youth and children.
Door ajar light stays on dome light stays on keeps flashing two warnings, cant clear them
Rear left door ajar light stays on keeping the courtesy lights to stay on after the car is off causing the battery to drain.
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
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.
Drivers door ajar sensor always on interior lights draining battery unable to lock doors
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,

The contact researched the failure online and found other owners with the same failure. The failure mileage was approximately 55,000.
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.
