My car has a faulty latch system in the driver side door. My door is completely shut however the warning light for an open door stays on and I am unable to lock my car while driving as this light stays on. This is also causing my lights to stay on as well. This is a safety concern because I have 2 children and I cannot lock my doors from the inside of my car while the car is in motion. I hit the lock button and since my car is showing that there is an open door, they immediately unlock and stay that way, which is a safety issue not only for myself but my children as well. I’ve had this issue for a couple of years now and went online and saw that several other ford edge owners have had the same problem.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, MY HEATER STARTED BLOWING COLD AIR AND WITHIN 5-10 MINUTES MY GAS PEDAL WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. 1-2 MINUTES AFTER MY GAS PEDAL WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE, MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THANKFULLY THIS HAPPENED AS I WAS APPROACHING AN EXIT AND I WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY BEFORE MY CAR OVERHEATED AND COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. MY CAR OVERHEATED 1-2 MINUTES AFTER MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF ANY PROBLEMS ON MY CAR BEFORE THIS ALL HAPPENED. IT WAS VERY SUDDEN. I WAS ABOUT 1.5 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME AND HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED. A MECHANIC LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THE COOLANT IS COMPLETELY DRAINING OUT. THEY USE AN ENTIRE GALLON OF COOLANT AND IT POURED OUT OF MY CAR IMMEDIATELY, IN UNDER A MINUTE. AS OF RIGHT NOW, I HAVE TO REPLACE THE WATER PUMP ON MY CAR. HOWEVER, IN ORDER TO REPLACE THE WATER PUMP, THE MECHANIC SAID THEY HAVE TO COMPLETELY REMOVE MY FRONT ENGINE IN ORDER TO ACCESS THE WATER PUMP. THIS WILL CALL FOR AT LEAST 12 HOURS OF LABOR, RAISING COST OF WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AROUND $200 FOR A NEW WATER PUMP TO BETWEEN $1700-$2100. IF THE MECHANICS FIND THAT THE COOLANT HAS INDEED MIXED WITH MY ENGINE OIL AND RUINED MY ENGINE, THEN I WILL HAVE TO COMPLETELY REPLACE MY ENGINE, RAISING THE COST FURTHER TO $7K+. ACCORDING TO KELLEY BLUE BOOK, IF I END UP HAVING TO REPLACE THE ENGINE, THIS WILL COST ABOUT 2-3 TIMES WHAT MY CAR IS WORTH.
