Edge 6-cyl

  • 10,000 miles
Door ajar light stays on. This causes all dome lights to stay on, at night impairs vision when backing up. Makes driving very unsafe for first few yards, dome and map lights then go off. This is very unsafe and I have had one latch replaced. Now another is doing it. Ford dealer refused to fix it again, will cost about $300 each time. I feel Ford has know of this problem for some time and should fix all doors on models affected, or find solution to having lights stay on instead of just the warning light. I'm going to tape over my map lights until trade in, and will not buy another Ford product if they don't provide a safe solution at their cost....updated 07/30/15 updated 9/23/15
