EXCESSIVE YELLOWING OF THE LENS FOR BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES. THIS "HAZE" ACTS AS A DIFFUSER, EFFECTIVELY DIMINISHING NIGHT-TIME DRIVE ABILITY DUE TO THE LACK OF AVAILABLE LIGHT PASSING THROUGH SAID LENS. *JB

POOR NIGHT VISIBILITY DUE TO SEVER DEGRADATION OF OEM HEADLAMP SYSTEM AND THAT THIS MAKES NIGHT DRIVING DANGEROUS IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE WITH OUT SOME SORT OF AFTERMARKET LIGHTING SYSTEM OR OEM REPLACEMENTS WHICH WILL SOON FAIL AND CAUSE THE ISSUE ALL OVER AGAIN. *NM

HEADLIGHTS ARE NO LONGER EFFECTIVE. THEY DO NOT PUT OUT ENOUGH LIGHT TO PROPERLY BE DRIVEN WITH AT NIGHT. DUE TO THIS ISSUE I CAN NO LONGER DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY AT NIGHT. I HAVE TRIED NEW BULBS, HIGHER POWER BULBS, AND POLISHING THE PLASTIC LENSES ALL TO NO AVAIL. *NM

THE HEADLAMPS ARE VERY DIM DUE TO THE REFLECTIVE COATING COMING OFF OF THE INSIDE OF THE HEADLAMPS. IT A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION YOU HAVE TO USE THE HI BEAMS TO BE ABLE TO SEE. ON THE DIM SETTING IT IS SIMILAR TO TRYING TO SEE WITH A CANDLE AS A LIGHT. *JB

I OWN A 1995 LINCOLN MARK VIII. THE HEADLIGHTS PROVIDE INADEQUATE VISIBILITY AT NIGHT. THE HEADLIGHTS DETERIORATE PREMATURELY. I BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE OF POOR DESIGN. *JB

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
HEADLIGHTS LOSE LUMINOSITY. HEAT FROM HEADLIGHTS DEGRADES THE BACK REFLECTIVE MATERIAL AND CAUSE HEADLIGHTS TO DIM AND MAKE NIGHT DRIVING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. OEM REPLACEMENT HEADLIGHTS MAY BE PURCHASED FOR $250 WHICH WILL DO THE SAME IN ABOUT 1 TO 2 YEARS TIME. *NM

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
MY 1995 LINCOLN MARK VIII HAS THE WORST HEADLIGHTS AND I'M AFRAID THAT I'LL GET INTO AN ACCIDENT OR HIT A PEDESTRIAN AT NIGHT. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE 10 FT IN FRONT OF ME, EVEN WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON. I DON'T KNOW HOW FORD CAN GET AWAY WITH MAKING SUCH HORRIBLE HEADLIGHTS. I LOVE THE CAR AND DON'T WANT TO SELL IT BECAUSE OF THE HEADLIGHTS. WOULD FORD BE ABLE TO COMPENSATE ME THE MONEY IF I WERE TO BUY NEW HEADLIGHTS SO CAN SEE AT NIGHT? I'M A FULL-TIME STUDENT AND CAN'T AFFORD TO BUY NEW ONES. PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS. THANK YOU!

DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS: AFTER A COUPLE OF YEARS, THE HEAD LIGHTS ON MY LINCOLN MARK VIII BECAUSE VERY DULL LOOKING. YOU CAN HARDLY SEE ANY LIGHTS ONE DURING THE NIGHT. I CONSTANTLY DRIVE WITH MY BRIGHTS ON AND IT STILL HARD TO SEE. WHEN I HAVE MY REGULAR LIGHT ON, IT LIKE DRIVING THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH A CANDLE AS MY LIGHT. *NM

MY HEADLIGHTS ARE ALMOST COMPLETELY USELESS. THEY ARE YELLOW AND DINGY BECAUSE OF THE MATERIAL USED IN THEIR MANUFACTURE. IT POSES A MAJOR THREAT TO ME AND EVERYONE ELSE ON THE ROAD WHEN I HAVE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THERE IS NO WAY TO PERMANENTLY FIX THEM, OTHER THAN TO MAKE NEW HEADLIGHTS THAT DON'T GLAZE OVER. *NM

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE PLASTIC COVER FOR THE HEADLIGHTS ARE DISCOLORED. THIS DOES NOT ALLOW THE HEADLIGHT TO PROJECT ENOUGH LIGHT FOR NIGHT DRIVING. THE CONTACT HAS REPLACED THE LIGHT BULBS, BUT THIS HAS NOT IMPROVED VISIBILITY. THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALERTED. UPDATED 4/6/2006 - *NM
