MY 2011 FORD EDGE LIMITED TURNS OFF IF A TRAFFIC LIGHT LAST LONGER THAN 30 SECONDS, THEN I HAVE TO QUICKLY PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT. THIS MORNING IT TURNED OFF ON ME WHILE GOING 70 MPH ON A BUSY HIGHWAY!! WHEN I GOT TO MY OFFICE THIS MORNING I WAS SHAKING SO I TOOK TO THE INTERNET TO SEE IF I COULD FIND ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THIS. I WAS SURPRISED TO FIND ONE PAGE AFTER ANOTHER REGARDING THIS SAME ISSUE! I'VE READ CLOSE TO 500 SIMILIAR COMPLAINTS SO FAR THIS MORNING AND MANY MANY MORE LEFT TO READ BY PEOPLE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM! HOW HASN'T FORD OR YOUR AGENCY NOT ISSUE A RECALL. THIS IS CRIMINAL AND A TOTAL DISGRACE TO FORD AND YOUR AGENCY IF YOU TOO ARE HIDING SOMETHING! THIS WILL, IF IT HASN'T ALREADY, GET SOMEONE KILLED!!

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I HAVE A 2011 FORD EDGE LIMITED THAT I BOUGHT FROM SHULTZ FORD IN WEXFORD PA IN 2014. I HAD WONDERFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND COULDN'T ASK FOR A BETTER TEAM TO WORK WITH. [XXX] WAS A GREAT SALESMAN AND TREATED ME LIKE I WAS HIS FRIEND INSTEAD OF A SALESMAN. MY EXPERIENCE WAS THE BEST! IN MARCH OF 2016, I WAS MADE AWARE OF THE APIM MODULE FOR MY 2011 FORD EDGE LIMITED BEING EXTENDED FROM THE ORIGINAL MANUFACTURES DATE. I NOTIFIED SHULTZ IN MARCH OF 2016 ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED BY ONE MONTH. IT'S NOT THEIR FAULT BY ANY MEANS, BUT TO ME AND MY FAMILY IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND ALSO A LIABILITY. YOU SEE, I HAVE 4 PRECIOUS CHILDREN AND THEY ARE ACTIVE AND ALWAYS PLAYING FROM AGES 2 TO 9 YEARS OLD. IF THEY ARE PLAYING IN THE YARD I CANNOT SEE THEM WHEN I PUT MY FORD IN REVERSE, AND AS YOU KNOW IN THE PAST AND NOW SEVERAL CHILDREN HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES DUE DRIVERS NOT KNOWING IF ANYTHING IS BEHIND THEM. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AND GIVES ME ANXIETY THINKING OF THIS. I TRULY AND HONESTLY FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL AND NOT JUST AN EXTENDED WARRANTY REPAIR. SO AT PRESENT DAY, MY BACK UP CAMERA CONTINUES NOT TO WORK AND BLACKS OUT AND I DO NOT HAVE ANY IDEA IF ANYONE IS BEHIND ME OR NOT. IT'S VERY DISCOURAGING BECAUSE I LOVE FORD AND THE PRODUCT THAT YOU PRODUCE. ALL I'M ASKING IS THAT YOU WILL REPLACE THIS APIM MODULE BECAUSE FORD NEEDS TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF ITS CUSTOMERS AND GUARANTEE ITS CARS ARE MADE WELL AND FUNCTIONING AS THEY WERE INTENDED. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU IN THE NEAR FUTURE. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON CAUSING THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON AFTER YOU GET OUT OF CAR AND WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. ALSO THE CAR LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING THE CAR AND YOU CAN'T LEAVE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION WHILE PARKED BUT STAYING IN THE CAR. A BELL WILL JUST KEEP RINGING UNTIL YOU REMOVE THE KEY.

THE PASSENGER DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON EVEN AFTER THE DOOR IS CLOSED, AND THE EVEN IF THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND THE DOORS LOCKED IT WILL ACT LIKE THE DOOR COMES OPEN AND SET THE ALARM OFF AND OR TURN THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON CAUSING THE BATTERY TO DIE. IT HAPPENS CONTINUOUSLY EVERYDAY.

THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR DOES NOTHING AND THE LIGHT REMAINING ON IS INTERMITTENT, WITH NO RHYME OR REASON. WHEN THE LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED, AND THE CAR IS IN DRIVE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON FOR ABOUT 60 SECONDS, THEN GO OUT. THIS IS ESPECIALLY BOTHERSOME WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT AS IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. ADDITIONALLY, ALL DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE THE CAR IS ON THE ROAD. WHEN PARKED, WITH ALL DOORS CLOSED, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL REMAIN ON FOR SEVERAL MINUTES - UP TO 20 THAT I'VE WITNESSED. THE CAR ALARM WILL ALSO BE TRIGGERED AFTER SOME TIME. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY ALREADY ONCE AND HAVE SPENT CLOSE TO $1000 TO HAVE THIS ISSUE FIXED BUT THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE TO PREVENT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT FROM STAYING ON.

1PE16012 · Door Ajar Warning Light Always On
Opened Sep 28, 2016 · Closed Mar 20, 2017
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Interior Lighting; Latches/locks/linkages; Latches/locks/linkages:doors:latch
The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened this investigation on September 28, 2016 based on allegations that the door ajar light located on the instrument cluster stays on all of the time even when all doors are closed and fully latched on 2011-2013 model year Ford Edge vehicles.When the light is illuminated continuously, vehicle occupants cannot be certain if any of the doors are properly latched.Reported safety consequences as a result of this issue include doors opening while driving (because doors were initially not latched properly), doors cannot be locked while driving, and the interior dome lights staying on continuously. Ford data received from the Information Request letter corresponding to this investigation indicates the failures were caused by contamination of the electrical contacts on the switch located within each door latch that tells the vehicle if the door is open or closed.All four doors contain the same latch design and switch.According to Ford, the Body Control Module (BCM) monitors the position of the switch and continuously samples it to detect a state of change.After a closed door state is detected, a continuous wetting current designed to keep the electrical contacts clean is sent from the BCM to the switches as long as the BCM is active.Beginning with the 2011 model year Edge vehicles, a change in BCM strategy resulted in a reduction of the wetting current sent out to clean the switch contacts by more than 75%.Over time, this low level of current is not sufficient to keep the switch contacts clean and contamination build up causes them to fail as described above.During the course of this investigation, ODI has identified a total of 1,983 complaints related to the door ajar light.Of these complaints, 14 indicated that a door opened while driving.Twelve of the 14 door opening events were situations where an occupant of the vehicle (often a child) opened a passenger door because the doors were not locked.The remaining two complaints involved a door opening on its own because the driver was unaware that the door was unlatched.There were no accidents but one complainant reported that a shoulder injury was caused by the driver having to repeatedly slam the door in an effort to get the door ajar light to turn off.After reviewing all available data, an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety has not been identified.The door latches themselves continue to function properly, remaining securely latched until acted upon by a driver or passenger.Child safety locks on the rear doors continue to function properly and can be used to prevent the rear doors from opening via the inside door handles.Vehicle crashworthiness is not affected by the lock condition of the doors and all active safety systems continue to function normally even if the vehicle BCM believes one or more doors is open.In addition, no accidents or accident related injuries have been reported.A safety-related defect trend has not been identified at this time and further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted.Accordingly, the investigation is closed.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist.The agency will monitor the issue and reserves the right to take future action if warranted by the circumstances.ODI numbers for the reports cited above are shown in the attached document.
