The door ajar warning message (always indicating the driver side door) comes on even when the door is closed. I have to shut the door hard several times to get the warning message or door ajar removed. Now there have been instances when I am driving and the drivers side door ajar warning appears. The warning messages also say shift to park when the door ajar warning message appears.

The driver door ajar light remains on after door is shut. The dome lights remain on. Shift to park warning comes on. This happens when driving as well. The alarm will not activate. I have to try several times to close the door on order for it to go off.
- Stone Mtn, GA, USA
The front driver door sensor will not go off no matter how many times you open and re-close the door. This causes the following to occur: 1) when driving the car, the doors will not lock, which is a major safety issue for those with children 2) when leaving the car, the door is not recognized as closed so the interior dome light and side-view mirror lights all remain on. This drains the battery while the car sits idle.
- Bellmore, NY, USA
My Ford Edge 2013 is not turning off the overhead lights when I close the driver side door and when driving I get a warning stating that the door is ajar.sometimes after slamming the driver door two to three times it goes away.it has become quiet annoying and dangerous when I drive since it becomes a constant distraction.I have gone to the dealer and they state that either the sensor or the latch have become faulty..really?...I think its about time for Ford to do a recall and correct this issue since I have talked to other Ford owners with the same exact issue in there offices.

Door ajar sensor stays on as if door is open. Dome light stays on and car will not lock properly.

- Oviedo, FL, USA
The driver door ajar alarm comes on when the door is securely closed. The interior lights will not go off which can be a driving hazard and will also drain the battery. The doors will not lock. This problem first occurred at about 47,000 miles and I took the car to the dealer in June 2015. I have an extended warranty, so I had to pay $107 deductible for them to clean the switch. The problem has occurred again in March 2016.

- Clarksville, TN, USA
Driver side door switch sticks and the vehicle computer thinks the door is open when it is closed.
- Rockford, MI, USA
Driver's door ajar warning keeps coming on. It would go away after a few attempts, or some cleaner sprayed into the locking mechanism area. But now, it's warning at all times. Dome lights stay on, warning chimes when the car isn't moving quickly, and car doors won't lock B/C it thinks the door is ajar. I think that and having lights on when you're reversing at night are the two biggest safety issues. The other issues are just annoying and likely wearing out battery power with the lights staying on. I've read that some other Ford and Lincoln models have had recalls on this locking mechanism so hoping that the Edge gets the same treatment. Seems like a silly issue for a 2013 car with 37K miles on it.
- Seattle, WA, USA
Door ajar warning light stays on constantly. This is a safety concern as the doors will not lock and this endangers the safety of the occupants of the vehicle. The warning bell rings whenever the vehicle is in motion. Also, the interior lights stay on which is a major concern for night driving.
