2005 FORD EXCURSION Exterior Lighting Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 FORD EXCURSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD NOT FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 11V352000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 130,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 FORD EXCURSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH FAILED. AS A RESULT, THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THE OWNER AND THE MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 115,000.

LEFT TURN SIGNAL INOPERATIVE WHEN TURNED ON NORMALLY, IF SIGNAL LEVER IS HELD PARTIALLY TO THE LEFT BEFORE THE DETENT TO HOLD IT IN THE LEFT SIGNAL POSITION, THE SIGNAL WILL WORK. FOUND A NHTSA CAMPAIGN DESCRIBING THIS ISSUE (11V352000) FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL AND FOUND OUT FORD HAS ISSUED A RECALL (11C18) FOR THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH, IT BUT I CALLED FORD AND THEY SAID MY VEHICLE IS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. I SUSPECT THE PROBLEM MAY BE MORE WIDESPREAD. *TT
