Consumer Description

Vehicles rear passenger brake light does not work when hitting brakes but lights up when vehicle is on. The blinker does not work but the reverse light does. Vehicle has a short somewhere and has put me at risk of being rear ended by others and I have drivers on the road notifying me on the daily. My vehicle is covered under CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) and only has 46k miles and well taken care of. Ford has not inspected it due to an upfront cost that I am expected to pay. The vehicle did not warn me of any electrical failures. I was notified by a friend that it was not working.
