My screen went completely back and never turned back on. I can no longer use the usb ports, turn on my radio, use my rearview mirror, connect my phone nor control my a/c settings. I took it to Ford and they indicated it's a bad apim. Another issue with my vehicle. After 18 months my brand new vehicle had a battery, starter, alternator and engine replaced. Now I need a new apim? Ford is ridiculous. They're customer service and quality in cars is gone. My car should be a lemon yet, 3 years after continuous problems, I'm still fighting for my vehicle to be recalled.

Battery goes dead every 1,500 miles-------------third battery in car. Ford techinician says they cannot find anything unusual in the electrical system to would cause this. Third battery now in auto has trouble starting in cold weather conditions----starter turns over very slowly during initial start of the day.
"door ajar" - my 2012 Ford Edge sel will have this problem on a daily basis intermittently throughout the day. Door will be closed & dash will light with door ajar warning. At times the warning will go away & auto lock will lock after I start driving. Other times I can make a long drive & open & reclose the door numerous times without the warning going away. Because the door just randomly thinks it's unlocked during the day and night time this in turn makes my sync system interior lights & sometimes headlights and taillights cycle on and stay on for different intervals as witnessed by my many neighbors, husband & myself. This has had a drain on my battery & we have had to replace it & jump it before. Also, we are expecting our first child & are very concerned about this issue because we cannot make the car think that the door should be locked. We live in texas where it's quite hot & can be cold for infant in the winter I need to be able to have a remote starter to pre-heat & pre-cool my vehicle for the baby. I cannot leave vehicle unlocked when running because I have a neighbor with dementia who will get in the vehicle & try to drive away so for me this is a huge safety concern. This also gives Ford a bad reputation just by everyone in my subdivision seeing this car and it's erratic cycling of lights interior and exterior. If someone is trying to mug me or rape me I cannot even locked myself in my vehicle because it will lock the door and they will automatically unlock when the vehicle is running because my door "is ajar". I have read many postings all over the internet & youtube with people having the same problem with many Fords especially a 2012 Ford Edge. This is our fifth Ford vehicle for my husband & myself. My dad worked for Ford for a number of years & was a manager at a Ford, but safety issues for my family like this making me not want another.
