Consumer Description

THE LOW BEAMS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. I CHECKED AND THERE IS A RECALL IN CANADA. I CALLED THE LOCAL FORD DEALER AND THEY SAID THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT ISSUE IS NOT ON RECALL IN THE UNITED STATES. IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE BOX CORRODING. THE CANADIAN RECALL NUMBER IS 19S28. CAN THIS BE LOOKED INTO AS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT?
