1 Electrical Jack problem

Failure Date: 04/05/2019

Door ajar light is on telling driver to shife to park door locks will not stay loaded when driving, so anyone can open car door while traveling down the road , this is not safe for someone may open door and fall out or if your at traffic light someone out side of car can open door, this is unsafe , you stand a chance of being car jackked or some other bad things can happen. I'd say car is unsafe and the problem needs to be recalled. I had Ford dealer check it out and said it needs a driver door latch assy. Replaced this problem had occurred on and off over the pass year or so but would seem to fix it selfwith in a few miles but now it stays on.

2 Electrical Jack problem

Failure Date: 07/20/2012

My 14 month old, 2012 Ford Edge, has had numerous issues, some very serious! from the beginning, I have had issues with the sync system, the navigation system, and controlling the temperature. They have had to "update" my sync system more than once. I frequently get a "no key detected" message when driving. (push start system) the first time that happened I pulled off the road thinking it would stop running, and did $1400. 00 in damage to the car. (coverage was denied by the wheel and tire protection plan. ) later was told the car would not have stopped even if it didn't recognize that the key fob was in it. (a car-jackers dream!) I had a hole in my brake booster causing me to not have the benefit of power brakes. Found this out when I stepped on my breaks and wasn't stopping. I had the really push on them to prevent hitting a car. The battery died in 14 months. The latest is that the vacuum seal in the capless fuel system had a bad o-ring causing fuel to leak and vapors to escape. I truly believe that this car is poorly made. I'm just waiting for the next issue to surface.
