CarComplaints.com Notes: A frustrating electrical issue is causing an ever-present “door ajar” warning light for 2011-2013 Ford Edge owners. Even with the doors latched shut, faulty sensors convince the vehicle’s computer they aren’t. With no way to override the system, owners have no choice but to stare at the warning light, listen to the warning chimes when the car is stopped, and deal with interior lights that won’t shut off.

Vehicle caught on fire after we attempted to park the vehicle. This incident took place less than two weeks after new car purchase from dealer! horrible experience and a safety hazard for anyone looking to purchase a Ford Edge.

Ford has the check engine light, which they refer it to "check engine soon" that comes on. There is a defect with Ford's capless fuel tank. Something about this issue causes the check engine light to light up non-stop! I am concerned that down the line, there will be numerous issues with the capless systems. It does not appear durable and will cost hundreds out of the pocket of owners whose warranty will expire after 2-3 years!!!!!!!!!!! a search on the internet does show consumers who have problems with this type of system, but then again there are thousands of those who are not computer savvy!
