The driver door latch is defective thus failing to notify the sensor that the door is actually closed. The door, although closed, registers open. The door ajar warning sounds on the dash board, dome lights stay on and doors do not lock. I am concerned that the defective latch may affect airbag deployment because the doors intermittently fail to lock. I began searching Ford forums only to find that this is an issue for many Ford owners. I contacted Ford Motor Corporation only to be informed that they knew nothing of this issue. It would be appropriate for Ford to acknowledge this issue, repair the faulty part at their expense, and continue to follow industry standards best practices.

My driver side door does not register as closed. The cabin lights stay on and the doors don't always lock because the car thinks the door is ajar when it is not. When driving the car I get an alarm in the dashboard that continually states the driver side door is ajar.

When driver's door is closed, the "door ajar" light is still on the display. You can slam the door hard several times before it will go off. Many times, it reappears after you begin driving. This causes a safety hazard to my family because my wife is not able to lock the doors when inside the car. (the "door ajar" will not allow it to be locked).

Drive door ajar on panel, doors won't lock, interior light stays on initially, while driving it will say to shift to park due to the door ajar...when you accelerate, the doors do not lock like normal. After turning car off sometimes can't lock to vehicle and the interior light stays on for about 5 minutes.

- Lancaster, PA, USA

Door ajar signal will intermittently activate even though drivers door is closed. This also means that dome lights will not go off and that the doors will not lock. This is apparently a very common issue with the Ford Edge and it needs to be escalated to a recall for fix.

Driver's side door ajar sensor always reads the door as open. This causes the car to chime every time you accelerate from a complete stop, the interior lights stay illuminated, and prevents the doors from automatically locking when the vehicle is in motion. The chime is a distraction and also causes the driver to ignore the alarm which means you could not notice some other, more serious malfunction in a timely manner. The interior lights make parking at night very dangerous as it's hard to see outside of the vehicle. And the doors not locking automatically is obviously dangerous. On top of all this, you cannot unlock the door from the outside if the proximity key is inside the vehicle when it thinks the door is open. If someone is used to being able to do this, it's very easy to lock yourself out of your car. It happened to me yesterday. Glad I didn't have a baby stuck in there. Instead I just had to pay $60 for a locksmith. Attempting to clean the area where the sensor is located does not fix the issue. And the process to replace the sensor is either very expensive or far beyond most people's ability (it requires complete disassembly of the door). This means a lot of people won't bother to repair it and there will be a lot of Ford vehicles on the road with this problem. Watch out for them in a parking lot.

A fault in the door latch on the drivers side is malfunctioning and sends a signal that the door is open when it is not. Besides being annoying, I fear the fact that the doors do not lock while the vehicle is in motion. They could be locked manually, but I have two small children that can not lock them on their own. I fear that if we were in an accident, they could be thrown from the car due to not having the doors locked. At this point I do not even want to drive my children anywhere in this vehicle. It is a safety issue!

A few months ago, the driver side door ajar light began staying on when the door was closed properly. This causes the lights to stay on inside the car along with the annoying beeping sound. What really concerns me is that I have my daughter in the vehicle with me and being that the doors won't lock as the light is now on continuously, she would be able to open the door at any time. Just wait until there is a major injury from this before being recalled, isn't that how it usually works?
