The "door ajar" warning light comes on intermittently and has drained the battery at least 4 times over the past 10 months. The dead battery has left me stranded on several occasions.

- Lebanon, NH, USA

Door ajar warning light comes on every time we get into the vehicle and never goes off no matter how many times we close the door. Doors do not lock as car begins to move. Dome lights stay on for extended period when we start driving and after we have parked the car at end of trip. Back up camera doesn't function some of the time, and it never functions completely as it should. Car horn goes off at random times while car is parked with no one near it. It is a random sounding honking, not the consistent honk it makes when the panic button is pushed. Radio sometimes will not turn on, and sometimes when radio is on while driving, it won't turn off, even after car is turned off, key is taken out, we get out of car and lock it. Syncing system doesn't work right. Phone calls disconnect randomly. Battery warning light comes on sometimes when we turn car on; and dash display is delayed or doesn't come on. We have not had the car stall or start a fire as yet, but are afraid that may come next, as we have ready the many complaints about the 2011 Ford Edge problems and have found so many people have documented these exact complaints we have listed, and others have had the very dangerous stalling or burning problem. How we hope these problems will be investigated and Ford will be forced to fix these dangerous problems before someone is injured or killed because of them. How can Ford not have addressed it yet?!

The driver side door ajar light stays on.with the light on, the door is not locked when you are driving. This then becoming a safety concern. After much research I am finding out this as been an on going problem for quite some time, and Ford has done doing nothing to fix the problem.

Front driver side door senor is not recognizing that the door is closed. It takes numerous attempt in order for the door to be recognized by the electrical system that it is close. This is a huge inconvenience and draws a lot of unnecessary attention. In asking around, I know several other Ford Edge who have encountered this issue as well, I firmly believe this to be a defect.

The vehicle has a electrical issue, the door ajar sensor does not work correctly. When the driver side door is closed the warning panel is still showing the door is open, and the dome lights will not shut off.

- Des Moines, IA, USA

While driving I had a message on my dash board that my driver side door was open. All the interior lights comes on and will not go off. I checked and all doors were closed and secure. This malfunction still up today and happens daily day an night time. During night is a safety issue because you can not see due to lights being on.

I was driving vehicle up a slight grade at 30mph. Engine power suddenly dropped to an idle RPM. It felt like it was running on 1 cylinder and very rough. I was able to "creep" the car to the side of road. Pressing on the accelerator in neutral or drive had no effect. A "wrench" warning icon appeared on the indicator panel. Shutting off and restarting the car allowed us to drive home. This occurred two times within 2 miles. The car will be taken to the dealer today for repairs. This same scenario (less than 270 miles prior) occurred as my wife accelerated away from our home 3 weeks prior. The owners manual indicated it was an AWD issue. My car does not have that feature.the car was taken to the dealer who indicated it was a transmission problem covered by a service bulletin and reprogrammed the transmission computer. Prior to these engine incidents the car had acted odd when shifting, as though it popped in and out of gear. This is a safety concern and so far we have been lucky because it happened each time in low traffic conditions.

Door ajar lights come on when door is properly closed causing a draw on the battery. Needs new door latch assembly from Ford, not covered under warranty should be a recall.

The rear driver's side door has a bad sensor. It does not recognize the door as being closed unless the door is opened/closed numerous times, sometimes it will not ever recognize the closure.

- Darlington, SC, USA

I get a door ajar warning when the door is actually closed; the lights won't go off, nor the doors lock. I feel very unsafe with the doors not being able to lock. Plus it doesn't help the battery life much either.

2011 Ford Edge sel I was driving down the road and the driver door ajar light came on and won't go off it has killed the battery twice now. It went off the first few times it came on but now it stays on all the time. I think this is a issue with the part and Ford should back up the part and fix it aint Ford tough if it messes up on its own Ford should fix this issue we pay for these nice vehicles and a little switch messes up and we should have to tear the door apart and take a chance on messing something else up I think not Ford should have to back up the built Ford tough slogan and recall this problem. Thank you!

I enter the vehicle, started the car and door ajar light came on. I opened door and closed several times to get it to go out. Now I just drive it with the light on, don't want to abuse the door. When I park the car the light stays on for a long time. Eventually the dome light, ext. Yellow lights and ext. Rear view mirror down lights will go out. While driving the door locks will not lock. Can be driving for a long time and the locks will finally engage. (hour)concerns are driving through flint with the doors unlocked and a dead battery from interior lights not turning off.

- Fenton, MI, USA

Although the doors are closed on my 2011 Ford Edge the "driver's door open" warning appears on dashboard. Interior lights stay on. Doors will not lock from the inside, making things dangerous in the event of a car-jacking. Ford claims this is not covered under the warranty and wants a lot of money to fix the problem, which we have discovered is widespread. It is an inherent fault with the Ford Edge irrespective of year.
