The door ajar light will come on along with interior light at random times. It happens when first entering the vehicle in the morning and also when driving at all times through the day. The only fix we've found is slamming the door shut a few times.
- Norman, OK, USA
Door ajar drivers side. Took it into Ford and they said it just needed to be cleaned, charged me 100. Now it is happening again 9 months later... annoyed.

The driver door ajar light continues to come on. This results in continues alerts and beeps while driving and causes the interior lights to stay on when away from vehicle. No matter how hard I slam the door I continue to get a message that the door is ajar. This is a common problem among Ford Edge vehicles as described in many user forums online and should be recalled.
- Austin, TX, USA
Submission from constituent re 2013 Ford Edge engine stall. The consumer stated the steering wheel locked, the vehicle shook, and the check engine light illuminated, all within seconds of the vehicle stalling. The dealer was unable to find a problem.

Driver door ajar light stays on even though the door is closed.
- Thousand Oaks, CA, USA
Driver door ajar sensor does not recognize that door is closed. This prevents all doors from being in the locked position while operating the vehicle. Manually locking the doors is overridden by the system and automatically unlocked. Annoying alarm always going off while driving or idle. Not known if sensor malfunction or door not actually closed properly. Should be recalled for repair.

While driving - even though the driver door is completely shut, the driver door ajar warning sign appears on the dashboard screen accompanied by the sound of a chime. Sometimes when you open and shut the driver door whether while still driving or if and when you find a side of the road space, the warning sign disappears. But oftentimes, it takes 3 or four tries to make it disappear. Sometimes the driver door ajar warning comes with an instruction to shift to P (park).... which is helpful if you can find a side of the road spot otherwise the instruction will just confuse a novice driver and could potentially create an accident. I search the internet and found this problem is very common with Ford Edge. I feel that this problem could potentially create an accident and warrants a recall.

- Lynchburg, VA, USA
No matter how hard you close the door on the drivers side of our Ford Edge. The door light keeps coming on and demanding you put the car park to shut the door. However the door takes for ever to register that it is closed and sometimes doesn't register.

- Longview, TX, USA
The driver side door says that it is ajar when it isnt. So annoying. The dealership said it will be 250 dollars to fix. Wtf? I have only had the car for 2 days.
- Hayward, CA, USA
Instrument panel shows driver ajar when door is not ajar. Door has to be opened and closed repeatedly until instrument panel no longer shows driver door ajar. The door ajar light will randomly come on while driving, causing cabin lights to come on, which is especially hazardous when it is dark out. This is a serious issue with multiple Ford vehicles and must be addressed.
- Cleveland, TX, USA
Driver side door shows up on display as being open along with engine on message. I have to close the door anywhere from 2-5 times to get the door message gone. Also when I enter the vehicle after it's been parked the interior lights stay on and I have to start the car and shut it off to get them to go out.
- Chesterfield, MI, USA
Door ajar light and chimes will stay on even though the drivers door is obviously closed. No matter how hard you close the door it still does this. This problem also will not allow the doors to be locked while driving. That is a hazard ! also, when the car is parked, the head liner lights stay lit for 10 minutes until the computer defaults them to turn off. Because the sensor thinks the door is ajar. I do believe this is a hazard, do being able to lock the doors while driving is unacceptable:(
- Cibolo, TX, USA

- Ararat, NC, USA
Door ajar keeps coming on when getting into the vehicle. In the past month its occurred several times. I start backing out of my driveway and it dings so I have put the vehicle in park and reopen driver door and slam shut to get it to turn off. Its getting worse and worse.
- Potterville, MI, USA
Driver door switch not letting module know the door is closed. Door would have to be opened and closed multiple time before module or switch would pick it up. What affect will this have on the air bags if I need them?
- St. Michaels , MD, USA
I have a 2013 Ford Edge SE with driver door issue of not locking even if door is shut. Door chime comes on letting me know that the door is not shut even though it is. If the door is not registering with the module saying it is shut what impact with this have on the air bags going off when needed.
