Back up camera works intermittently. Was told by the dealer the parts for the camera were on back order and it could be up to a year before they get them in!!!! Also if the car sits for 2 to 3 days the battery is dead and it has to be jump started. Battery tested at 100%. Everything is off when I get out of the car but something is draining the battery!!!

Door ajar alert comes on after closing driver door causing interior dome light to stay on and external locking mechanism does not work such as lock code buttons and hand sensor causing the vehicle not to lock. This happens when exiting the vehicle. Concern fir battery drain, unsecured vehicle and extra lighting when driving. Have had an intermittent issue with back hatch door stating same thing. Noted this is ay known problem with previous year ford edge products and many comments out in the internet by other ford edge owners. This has been happening over the last several months

Driver door ajar warning won't go out. Doors won't lock. Battery drains. Transmission not in park warning. These warnings come on while parked and while the vehicle is moving.

"door ajar" alert stays on even though the door is fully shut. The alarm will keep going off while driving. It therefore leaves the interior dome lights on which can lead to the battery draining over night. Unable to lock the doors when the vehicle is in motion. Safety issue if you have kids or for a woman driving alone. The key fob won't be able to lock the doors when you leave the car parked.

Driver side front door ajar sensor failure. Sensor reads door ajar when door is closed that which keeps interior lighting on, dash alarm/warning stays on and drains the battery and could potentially leave you stranded. Found many people with this same issue on the same door, other door or multiple doors on the internet and many youtube videos showing this failure with most ford SUV style vehicles in this model and year range. Called several mechanics and was quoted $400 + dollars to replace sensor with same version sensor that which will soon fail again according to mechanics and others that have replaced the sensor from internet and youtube source.
