| 2005 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | WE HAVE A 2005 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS WITH AUTOMATIC HEADLAMPS. WHILE DRIVING ON SEPT 18,2010 IN THE EVENING I NOTICED DASH LIGHT WERE ON BUT IT DID NOT APPEAR TO HAVE HEADLAMPS ON. I TRIED MANUAL SWITCHING AND STILL NO HEADLIGHTS. I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE HOME WHEN I FOUND OUT HIGH BEAMS WORKED. 1ST TRIP TO DEALER WAS POSSIBLE LOOSE PIN. LOST HEADLIGHTS ON THE WAY HOME FROM DEALER. BROUGHT CAR BACK AND HEADLIGHTS STARTED WORKING AGAIN. DEALER JUST CALLED AND SAID HEADLIGHT MODULE WAS BAD AND HAS TO BE REPLACED. ONE WEEK WAIT BECAUSE DEALER SAID IT IS UNUSUAL. CHECKED ON LINE AND FOUND A COUPLE OF HUNDRED COMPLAINTS OF SAME EXACT PROBLEM AND REMEDY. $750.00 PLUS. COULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS LATER IN EVENING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH. I AM REQUESTING OLD PART FROM DEALER THANK YOU *TR |
