Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT AND A CAR HIT ME IN THE REAR. THE OTHER DRIVER SAID HE DIDN'T SEE ME SINCE I DID NOT HAVE MY LIGHTS ON. I SHOWED HIM THAT THEY WERE ON BUT YET THE TAIL LIGHTS WERE NOT. WHEN I HAD A SHOP CHECK FOR THE PROBLEM, THEY SAID THE FUSES, BULBS AND RELAYS WERE FINE. THEY SAID THE PROBLEM IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND IT IS A LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE WHICH COSTS OVER $500.THEY SAID FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT STILL HAS NOT RECALLED THE ITEM. WHEN I SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET, I FIND A TON OF PEOPLE REPORTING THIS PROBLEM. THIS COULD HAVE EASILY CAUSED SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH TO ALL INVOLVED. I AM SHOCKED AT FORD. *TR
