EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
THROUGH EXPOSURE TO OUTDOOR ELEMENTS, THE HEADLIGHT COVERS FOR THIS VEHICLE HAVE BECOME CLOUDED TO THE DEGREE THAT THEY ARE USELESS. THIS POSES A DANGEROUS SITUATION DURING NIGHTIME DRIVING, EVEN USING THE HIGH BEAMS. WE CALLED THE DEALER TO PRICE NEW COVERS. THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $280.00 PER LIGHT, WHICH I BELIEVE IS USURIOUS. WE HAVE TRIED TO FIND USED REPLACEMENTS AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS UNIVERSAL. EACH 94 MARK VIII WE FOUND IN JUNKYARDS HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS. EVEN IF THE SITUATION CANNOT BE RESOLVED, AT LEAST YOUR WEBSITE ALLOWED ME TO VENT!*AK

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THAT THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROVIDE SUFFICENT LIGHTING FOR NIGHT DRIVING. WE LIVE IN A LARGE CITY AND IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE STREET LIGHTS, WE WOULD ALMOST CERTAINLY SEE NOTHING. MY WIFE WEARS GLASSES AND CAN NOT SEE VERY WELL AT NIGHT. THIS VEHICLE MAKES IT DANGEROUS AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR HER TO USE IT AT NIGHT. WE HAVE EXPLORED A FEW OPTIONS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL LIGHTING, NONE OF WHICH PROVED EFFECTIVE. THE ONLY SOLUTION IS A SET OF LIGHTS FROM FORD WHICH COST OVER $800.00 BEFORE INSTALLATION. THE FACT THAT THESE LIGHTS EXIST TELL US THAT FORD WAS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT 2 YEARS AFTER THE PRODUCTION OF OUR VEHICLE. BUT FOR EVERYONE WHO OWNS A 95 OR OLDER, WE ARE STUCK WITH THESE LIGHTS THAT ARE GOOD FOR LIGHTING UP ABOUT 7-10' OF ROADWAY IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. ANY HELP OR ASSISTANCE YOU CAN PROVIDE IN THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. IF ANYONE HERE NEEDS TO SPEAK WITH ME THE BEST NUMBER TO REACH ME AT IS [XXX], THANKS FOR ANY ASSISTANCE THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO PROVIDE. SINCERELY [XXX]. *AK INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS AT LOW BEAM PROVIDE INSUFFICIENT LIGHTING AND ALSO ARE INSUFFICIENT AT HIGH BEAM, TOO, BUT A LITTLE BETTER. CANNOT SEE WHERE I AM GOING AT NIGHT. PROBLEM EVEN WORSE DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER OR POORLY LIT STREETS. NEW BULBS HAVE NOT CURED THE PROBLEM.
