2013 Ford Flex

THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS SHOWING THAT IT IS OPEN RANDOMLY WHEN I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. (DOOR IS CLOSED AND LOCKED) THE LIGHTS AND ALARM WILL COME ON AND MAKES IT UNABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED DUE TO UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE DOOR SENSOR IS A ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED.

1. DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR SENSOR/LATCH/ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION. DOOR IS AJAR WARNING DOES NOT TURN OFF. DOORS CANNOT LOCK WHEN DRIVING. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE FOR KIDS IN BACK SEATS. ALARM GOES OFF ANYTIME RANDOMLY. DRAINS BATTERY AND AFFECTS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. FAULTY BACK UP CAMERA. 2. WATER PUMP FAILURE UNDER ENGINE. COVERED BY 6YR/60K WARRANTY, FAILED AT 62K MILES. REPLACEMENT COST IS AN EXTREME HIGH COST OF $2700.

PASSENGER SIDE DOORS GIVE FALSE DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATIONS. FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS REPAIRED JUNE 2017. REAR PASSENGER DOOR NOW SHOWS THE NOTIFICATION AS OF NOVEMBER 2017. FALSE NOTIFICATION LEADS TO DOME LIGHTING AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS STAYING ON. BATTERY WAS DRAINED AND REPLACED IN JUNE 2017. DOORS FAIL TO LOCK USING AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK WHILE IN MOTION. DEALER DETERMINED IT WAS A FAULTY DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY WHICH SEEMS TO BE IMPACTING OTHER FORD VEHICLES.

THE DOORS ARE ALWAYS SAYING THEY ARE AJAR AND THEY ARE NOT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOOK OUT ONE SENSOR ON MY DOOR AND THEN AFTER THAT TWO OTHERS WENT OFF AND NOW THEY CONTINUE TO GO OFF. MY LIGHTS WILL STAY ON FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND THEY WILL FINALLY SHUT OFF AND SOMETIMES THEY SHUT OFF TURN BACK ON AND THEN MY ALARM GOES OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT MOST OF THE TIME. I'LL SHUT IT OFF LOCK IT MAKE SURE ALL THE DOORS ARE LOCKED AND THEN I WILL GO BACK OUT AND THE ALARMS ARE GOING BACK OFF. AGAIN ALL THE DOORS ARE SHUT THE CAR'S BEEN SITTING THERE FOR PROBABLY ABOUT 3 TO 4 HOURS AND I'M PRETTY SURE THAT THE LIGHTS KEEP GOING ON AND OFF AFTER A WHILE THE ALARM STARTS GOING OFF. IT IS DRAINING MY BATTERY MY BATTERY IS GOING BAD BECAUSE OF IT I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. I NEED THIS FIXED. I WORK AT THE HOSPITAL AND WE HAVE TO PARK OUR CARS A COUPLE MILES AWAY SO IF MY CARS GOING OFF I HAVE NO IDEA THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL TIMES THAT I HAVE HAD TO GET MY CAR BOOSTED BECAUSE MY BATTERY WAS DEAD.

MY VEHICLE'S "DOOR AJAR" SENSOR WILL NOT TURN OFF EVEN WHEN ALL DOORS ARE SECURELY CLOSED. THIS IS RESULTING IN MY LIGHTS STAYING ON FOR A VERY LONG TIME AND THE WORST THING IS THAT MY DOORS WON'T STAY LOCKED AT ANYTIME. WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW IS THAT WHEN I LOCK THE DOORS AFTER EXITING THE CAR, THE ALARM WILL GO OFF AFTER A CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME, THEREFORE, I HAVE TO LEAVE THE CAR UNLOCKED OR KEEP AN EAR OUT FOR IT. I HAVE TRIED MANUALLY LOCKING THE DOORS WHILE I'M DRIVING AND THE DOOR LOCKS WILL AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK THEMSELVES. I DON'T FEEL SAFE KNOWING THAT SOMEONE COULD JUST JUMP IN MY CAR OR OPEN ONE OF MY BACK DOORS WHERE MY TWO CHILDREN SIT. I'M ALSO FEARFUL OF MY BATTERY DYING AS A DIRECT RESULT OF MY DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON FOR SUCH A LONG TIME EVERY SINGLE DAY. I'M DREADING THE THOUGHT OF THIS HAPPENING WHILE WITH MY KIDS AND BEING LEFT STRANDED. I WISH FORD WOULD TAKE THIS ISSUE MORE SERIOUS. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO NEED FOR SOMETHING TRAGIC TO HAPPEN IN ORDER FOR CORRECTIVE ACTION TO BE TAKEN.

DRIVER SIDE DOOR WARNING KEEPS LIGHTING UP AND BEEPING. THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR, BUT CONSTANTLY GETTING THE MESSAGE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RE-SHUT THE DOOR, EVEN WHILE DRIVING. INTERIOR LIGHTS NOW NOT WORKING PROPERLY BECAUSE THE CAR THINKS THE DRIVER DOOR IS CONSTANTLY AJAR. INTERIOR LIGHTS NO LONGER COME ON WHEN I OPEN THE DOOR, ONLY WHEN KEY IS IN THE IGNITION. THEY TAKE 20-30 MINUTES TO SHUT OFF NOW AFTER THE CAR IS SHUT OFF. *TR
