Description of the problem	The door ajar lights on the dash and "dinger" come on aug 4, 2019, when i started the vehicle. I checked all doors, nothing was open. This has been a continuous problem ever since. These indicators come on when the doors are not ajar. They come on every day, the "dinging" noise as well as the little icons of the various doors. I have checked the doors repeatedly and they were not open. After researching, i have found out this is a toyota problem with this vehicle. This problem can occur when the vehicle is in park and stationary and also when driving the vehicle. It is almost constant. And is ongoing. It has been happening to my toyota highlander for 7 weeks now. There was nothing that happened to cause this problem. One day it just started doing it. I hope toyota can resolve this issue and send out a recall notice so owners can go and get the problem fixed. This is an important safety feature when hauling items and with children. Doors could actually be ajar. The little icon lights come on each day and the "dinging" noise is bothersome. I don't know if the doors are really ajar or not. Thank you.
