CROWN VICTORIA'S WERE STILL BURSTING INTO FLAMES WITH THE SHIELDING. AN OFFICER IN MISSOURI WAS THE 16TH TO DIE AND THE 5TH TO DIE IN THE ONE YEAR. THREE IN THE MONTH OF MAY ALONE AND THE OFFICERS DIDN'T SURVIVE. ONE TROOPER WAS REAR ENDED ON THE INTERSTATE BY A PICKUP WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO BURST INTO FLAMES TRAPPING THE TROOPER. THE TROOPER BURNED TO DEATH. EVEN WITH THE SHIELDING, THREE CARS HAD BURST INTO FLAMES. (PAUL AMBROSE ON BEHALF OF DECEASED BROTHER, TROOPER ROBERT AMBROSE ASLO WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND HIS VEHICLE DID NOT HAVE THE PROTECTIVE SHIELDING.) *PH *JB

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I RECENTLY BEGAN HAVING HEADLIGHT AND PARKLIGHT/ TAILLIGHT TROUBLE WHEN MY HEADLIGHTS STARTED TO SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I OWN A 2003 FORD CROWN VICTORIA I STILL HAD MY DASH LIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHTS WORKING. APPARENTLY IT IS SOME SORT OF DESIGN FLAW IN THE LCM AND IT ONLY APPLIES TO THE LOW BEAMS AND CONSTANT ON HIGH BEAM FUNCTION. THE FLASH TO PASS FUNCTION WILL STILL WORK THOUGH WHEN IT WAS MALFUNCTIONING. IT SEEMS TO BE ON THE LCM OR LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE. OR THE BCM. *TR
