Door ajar malfunction

Went in to the garage the other night and when I opened the door the lights didn't come on. Weird I thought so I closed and re-opened and they came on. Then I left work yesterday and the bell kept going off and the car was saying the driver door was ajar when it wasnt. I put two and two together and realized that that is why the lights wouldnt come on the day before, because the battery saver kicked in and shut the car down.

 

I got home and when I opened the door the chime was dinging repeatedly. Same for when I got in again later last night but not when I got back home or this morning?!

Been having the door ajar issue for about a week now. Have to keep closing the door a couple of times to get the warning to disappear.

 

Hey kc300c,

 

Have you been to your dealer to have this concern checked out? Let me know and I'll look into available avenues of assistance.

 

Did you report it to Ford yet? I posted instructions on a similar name Topic. (sorry I don't have time to find it right now)

 

I really think if enough people complain we could get it covered under warranty and some people would be able to get reimbursed. Good luck

 

As a reminder, if you have a vehicle concern, please let me know. We'll go from there.

I have a concern. Why are so many door latches malfunctioning? What is ford doing about it?

 

40K miles, just out of warranty and BOOM $120 part failure.

If ya look at some of the comments below kkrace's youtube video it sounds like Ford now has some way of cleaning the latch with a special tool. Could be BS but maybe worth investigating. Putting a new latch in does not look that bad if you have a little mechanical ability.

2013 Driver door ajar and as we are driving display also reads shift to park.

Turns out 2 seperate problems and here I thought the car was telling me to pull over, shift to park and close door.

Both problems taken care of by Dealer.

replaced latch for door and misc adjustment for shifter.

100.00 deductible.
