| 2003 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | HEATING AND DEFROST FAILED. FORD SERVICE CO WANTED A $1000 TO LOOK AT IT. I DIDN'T HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT. NOW, I ONLY DRIVE IT IN THE SUMMER MONTHS. THIS VEHICLE HAS AN ORIGINAL 70,000 MILES ON IT AND NOW THE HEADLIGHTS ONLY WORK INTERMITTENTLY. IN 2010 I HAD TO HAVE THE GAS TANK REPLACED. I HAVE READ SEVERAL REPORTS ON 2003 CROWN VIC WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. I LIVE IN THE SOUTH, LOTS OF RAIN AND HUMIDITY. DEFROST IS A MUST AS WELL AS HEADLIGHTS. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY FORD IS GIVING THE OPTION TO AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THEY WILL FIX THEIR DEFECTS OR PASS THEM ON TO THE CONSUMER. I HAVE A 1995 NISSAN, 140000 MILES. THE BODY IS FALLING APART, BUT THE ENGINE RUNS LIKE A SEWING MACHINE AND ALL THE ELECTRICAL WORKS, EVEN THE WINDOWS. MADE IN THE USA... SAD. *TR |
