VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
POWER WINDOW REGULATORS IN MY 1995 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS LS HAVE CONTINUED TO FAIL DUE TO DESIGN FAULTS. I HAVE TALKED WITH SEVERAL FORD TECHNICIANS WHO HAVE CLAIMED THAT THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT IN THE GRAND MARQUIS SERIES. THE DRIVER WINDOW, FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW, AND DRIVER SIDE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATORS HAVE ALL FAILED. THE WIRE THAT COILS ALLOWING THE WINDOW TO GO UP AND DOWN IS ALMOST DESTROYED. WINDOW WILL NOT WORK WITH THIS DEFECT AND CAUSES THE WINDOW TO SLIDE DOWN DURING OPERATION.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I AM CURRENTLY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY 2004 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS WITH THE HEAD LIGHTS NOT COMING ON OR GOING OUT. ALL OTHER LIGHT STAY ON. TURNING THE LIGHT SWITCH ON / OFF AND IT WON'T COME ON. SAME SYMPTOMS IN AUTO OR MANUAL HEADLIGHT MODE. IF I STOP THE CAR IT WILL COME BACK ON. IT THEN MIGHT GO OFF AFTER A WHILE. I SEE OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM, THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS. DEALER TELLS ME IT IS A FAILURE OF THE LIGHT CONTROL MODULE (LCM). *TR
