| 1995 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS | THE CURRENT HEADLIGHTS OF THE CAR DO NOT LIGHT THE ROAD ADEQUATELY AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY IN THE RAIN! FORD HAS UPGRADED THE LIGHTS ON THE 96 VERSION AND UP TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. BUT DRIVING MY 95 LINCOLN MARKVIII AT NIGHT PROVES DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS. YOU CAN HARDLY EVEN TELL THE LIGHTS ARE ON AT NIGHT AND IN THE RAIN THEY ARE USELESS. I HAVE THE VIN NUMBER IF YOU NEED ME TO SUPPLY IT, PLEASE CONTACT ME AND I WILL GLADLY GIVE IT TO YOU. I HAVE ALSO HEARD RUMORS OF FORD FIXING THIS PROBLEM ONCE IN A WHILE FOR CUSTOMERS SO THEY MUST KNOW IT IS A SERIOUS ISSUE! THANK YOU. *AK |
| 1993 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS | HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM, HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT (DRIVER HAS 20/20 VISION AND NO NIGHT BLINDNESS). THE SEAL AROUND THE REAR WINDOW IS BREAKING DOWN AND BUBBLING. I HAVE SEEN THIS ON 1998 MODELS OF THIS CAR AS WELL. LOOKING AT CARS MUCH OLDER AND NOT AS WELL MAINTAINED AS MINE, I NOTICE NO SUCH BREAKDOWN. I DO MEAN THE "FORD PINTO" TYPE OF OLD CLUNKER. THEY MAY SAY THAT THIS IS DUE TO THE HEAT IN FLORIDA, BUT DON'T THEY SELL THESE CARS HERE? THIS WILL COST IN EXCESS OF $1,000.00 BECAUSE THE WHOLE WINDOW WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS JUST BAD WORKMANSHIP. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. |
