Consumer Description

BUTTON WHICH TURNS ON HEADLIGHTS BROKE OFF OF SWITCH. I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2000 EXCURSIONS FOR THIS PARTICULAR DEFECT BUT WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND LATER CALLED FORD THEY CLAIMED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THEY INSIST THAT I HAVE TO BUY THE $85 HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY JUST TO GET THE $5 KNOB. I AM CURRENTLY USING A PAIR OF NEEDLENOSE PLIERS TO TURN HEADLIGHTS ON AND OFF WHICH IS UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING.*AK
