CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013 Edge has its fair share of problems, but chief among them is an annoying “door ajar” warning light that won’t shut off even when the door is most definitely closed. While the retina-burning, ever-present false reminder on your dashboard is bad, it points to a deeper problem that can drain the battery, leave the doors unlocked while in motion, or render the key fob useless.

The " driver door ajar" warning light remains on constantly. Being a senior citizen, I'm concerned about being car jacked when stopped because the door locks will not automatically activate when the warning light is on. Also, the interior lights remain on for a period of time which can alert a car jacker. The Ford dealer estimate to repair the latch sensor is $470.
