   Driving on the highway at night when suddenly the door alarm rings, dome light turned on causing driver to lose focus/control. Was driving at 60mph when the sensor faulted. The alarm/notification turns on at random times causing the vehicle to have the light stay on and drain battery. This is causing the driver unsure if the door is properly closed and risking the door opening in case of an accident. Problem has persisted.

    The headlights have been a porblem from day one. We changed them to a brighter bulb and we cant seem to get them adjusted. Door ajar has been replaced on the right rear and now is doing the same thing on the right front passenger door. Now the brake pedal seems "hard" when we push it and i have seen recalls for the brake booster yet it shows our edge has no recalls. We will be taking it to our mechanic to be checked.
