  1. My 2013 SEL works as described above. All doors unlock once the key is out of the ignition and the drivers door is opened. Kids in the back are locked in unless I open my door.
  2. When I say "work itself out" I meant that I will be personally checking my wiring harness in the door. I'm inclined to think its an electrical issue in terms of wiring because of how sporadic the issues are. The "Shift to Park" never happns on its own, only when the car is in drive and the "door ajar" warning is on. At times if another door is unlocked then the driver side "door ajar" warning pops up also. It's very sporadic and I had a day last week where it didnt happen at all the entire day but was back the follwoing day. I'm pretty sure its not my door latch or shifter assembly switch. Besides I don't want to replace parts and have the problem remain or come back after time. Although for all I know, I could fix the problem with the wiring harness and suddenly the door latch does fail but the symptoms should be somewhat different.
  3. I purchased a 2013 Edge SEL last year and have been dealing with the "Shift to Park" and "Door Ajar" issues both. It's been very frustrating and embarrassing at times, especially when dealing with a dead battery because of it. I also live in Northern Canada where it is very cold so my battery is forced to work even harder most days. I recently found a couple posts online regarding this issue that points to an issue with the wiring harness possibly in the driver side door. My "Door Ajar" warning is a daily thing but there are times when its not as bad and some days I have to close my door multiple times before it corrects but it always corrects itself. If I drive away with the "door ajar" light on, the "Shift to Park" warning comes on. I'm going to open my door panel and check the wire and hopefully it is a loose connection or faulty harness and maybe I can finally resolve this issue. I have tried cleaning the door switch and it has not helped at all, not even temporarily. Info I found online.... **The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. After starting the vehicle, the door ajar and shift into park warning indicators illuminated and the door chime indicator sounded after all of the doors were closed. The interior lights remained illuminated the entire time. The failure recurred on several occasions. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the wiring harness and switch in the driver's door assembly needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 44,000. Updated 5/19/cn updated 7/1/2015.** Hopefully it works itself out and maybe just maybe this will help someone else out, hence the post, especially those that have the problem reocurring after a possible fix is done by the dealer. Other than this issue I love my Edge <3
  4. I just purchased vinyl wrap to black out my entire grill. I'm currently in the process of researching how to wrap the vinyl effectively. Pretty excited to get it started/done and then maybe even start wrapping some interior parts in the future as I dont like some of the silver/grey pieces around the center console.
  5. I noticed my driver's door is starting to do this on my 2013. I was hoping it was due to the recent melt of our snow and ice buildup but its still sticking. I can open and shut my door and it corrects itself but how long will that last for :/ Keep us updated
  6. Can't wait to see pics when it's all done! I see you are in Ontario. I am up north in Iqaluit and been thinking about shipping up some new wheels for the summer. Any thoughts on a good spot to buy wheels close to (or in) Ottawa?
  7. Awesome mod and write up. I have the SEL also and think I will do this in the summer especially now that I see its so easy to splice in to make it dimmable. May even try using million colour leds to get the colour change option. I'm not sure if there is a Ford controller option that ties it into the MFT, would be great if there was so I could control it from the screen.
