general problems of the 2014 Ford Edge

I purchased my 2014 Ford Edge sel on January 2015. I have electrical problems suspicion problems & recall on my airbags! I have always taken it to a Ford dealership to have my regular service done…oil charge etc. It those times I have told them the other problems I was having example electrical problem started a month after I bought my vehicle every time they told me nothing is wrong or they replace the battery I have had 4 batteries replaced by Ford dealerships. I also had recall on my airbags the dealership told me numerous times you do not need to worry about your vehicle it is fine!! after my 100, 000 mile warranty ran out I had my vehicle serviced by a mechanic shop. They could the electrical issue was in headlights & dashboard had them replace headlights & lights in dashboard. On 3/19/2023 I was in a bad vehicle accident involved 9 vehicles I was the 5 vehicle. I have neck back & leg injuries. My airbags never went off! if the airbags would of worked properly have would not of gotten all my injuries. My police officers & paramedics explained that to me at scene of the accident. Why did Ford not do or repair my airbag recall instead of telling meh car was not recalled even when I received service notification in the mail to get the airbags fixed.

The driver side door sensor/ latch is failing. Door is closed or slammed multiple times and sensor shows errors door ajar, transmission not in park, engine on because it doesn't sense the door being shut. Therefore the overhead light stays on and can potentially drain battery. If continuing to drive with warning it will beep every few seconds. The doors will not automatically lock. When getting out of car and locking. It needs to be shut multiple times so light doesn't stay on and or alarm will not set.

Door ajar / transmission not in park sensor is not working properly. Unsafe condition not knowing if door lock system is working properly. Have to stop numerous time while driving to check if door is actually closed and locked. Also will not allow interior lights to go off, and is safety issue when trying to drive at night. Extremely difficult to see due to lost of night vision. Ford motor knows of the issues for years but refuses to correct issue via a recall. The vehicle only has 31,000 miles on it.

Driver side head lights do not come on when lights are first turned on. Checked bulbs and ok. Then when high beam is turned on the light will come on and both low and high beam will work. Ok for a couple days then same process. In checking online blogs see a lot of owners complain of same or similar problem. . Suggestions to replace relay but when going to dealer suggest replacing complete assembly which is very expensive. Also relays make like almost a transmission shifting noise when going from low to high beam and back. Because of lack of dependability feel compelled to have to check lights every time you go someplace.
