EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
FAULTY HEADLIGHT LENSES THEY GET YELLOWED AND BURN FROM THE INSIDE WHICH MAKES VISIBILITY AT NIGHT VERY POOR. WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON YOU CANT EVEN TELL THAT THEY ARE ON AND IT IS EVEN WORSE IN THE RAIN. *NM

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
POOR NIGHT VISIBILITY DUE TO SEVER DEGRADATION OF OEM HEADLAMP SYSTEM MAKING 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 ON 1993 LINCOLN MARK VIII ARE INEFFECTIVE WHEN USED FOR NIGHT DRIVING. INABILITY TO SEE HAS RESULTED IN NUMEROUS "CLOSE CALLS" AND HAS MADE THE CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE AFTER DARK. *JB

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
ON MY 95 LINCOLN MARK VIII THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE REAL POOR SEEING AT NIGHT TIME I THOUGHT THIS WAS JUST A SIMPLE FIX BUT BEING ON THE INTERNET I SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE I HAD CALLED UP FORD THEY HAD TOLD ME THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT IS TO BUY NEW LIGHTS AT A COST OF OVER 600 $ PER SIDE I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THIS CAR I JUST WANTED TO BRING IT TO YOUR ATTENTION AND LET YOU KNOW ABOUT IT IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME. *NM

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
FUEL TANK HOSE IS DESIGNED TO RUN AGAINST THE DRIVE SHAFT TO AVOID BEING PINCHED BY SUSPENSION. BUT OVER TIME THE CONSTANT RUNNING OF THE DRIVE SHAFT AGAINST THE HOSE WILL DETERIORATE IT CAUSING THE FUEL HOSE TO LEAK AND POSSIBLE FIR CAN RESULT! LINCOLN DESIGNED THE PLASTIC HOLDER TO HOLD HOSE AGAINST DRIVE SHAFT. THE PORTION OF MY DRIVE SHAFT THAT HAS BEEN RUBBING AGAINST THE FUEL HOSE HAS BEEN HIGHLY POLISHED TO A CHROME FINISH. FUEL HOSE IS LEAKING AT A GOOD RATE WHILE VEHICLE IS RUNNING. *JB

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
"I HAVE A 1995 LINCOLN MARK VIII LSC. THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE SO DIM, AT NIGHT I AM UNABLE TO HAVE A FULL VISUAL OF WHAT MOST CAR-OWNERS ARE ABLE TO SEE. THIS PROBLEM IS DUE TO THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY CAR, WITH BRAND NEW BULBS)I KNOW SOME PEOPLE THAT HAVE AROUND THE SAME YEAR AS ME WITH THE SAME MODEL (2 1994'S AND 1 1995) THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO LOOKED INTO IT THROUGH VAST AMOUNTS OF MARK VIII FORUMS AND THE RESULT IS THE SAME. THIS IS A HAZARD TO EVERYONE'S SAFETY IN AND AROUND THESE VEHICLES, AND THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT MUST BE RECTIFIED BY THE LINCOLN MANUFACTURE. THIS IS A DEFINITE RECALL MATTER. THANK YOU " J.

HI MY CAR EXPERIENCED AN ELECTRICAL SHORT TO THE COMPRESSOR MOTOR FOR MY 1985 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL MARK VII. I CALLED FORD MOTOR DEALERS AND THEN FORD MOTOR CO. ALL OF THEM SAID THERE WAS NO RECALLS FOR MY 1985. I AM BEING LIED TO BY THEM AS I HAVE FOUND INFORMATION CONTRARY TO THEIR STATEMENTS TO ME. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER : 85V040000 I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED BRAKE PROBLEMS SIMILAR TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER : 86V109000. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO AT LEAST ACKNOWLEDGE THERE WERE RECALLS FOR MY MODEL. I DON'T APPRECIATE BEING LIED TO AND THEIR NEGLIGENCE COULD LEAD TO A DISASTER AND POSSIBLY A DEATH. I CONTACTED THEM ON MONDAY APRIL 24TH, 2006. *NM

POORLY DESIGNED HEADLIGHTS THAT WERE UPGRADED BY LINCOLN IN 1996 THE UPGRADE SHOULD HAVE BEEN RETROFIT INTO THE 1993-1995 CARS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE ALONG THE SAME LINES AS MAKING ANTILOCK BRAKES OPTIONAL. SAFETY FEATURES ARE NOT OPTIONS! *NM

I AM A OWNER OF A 1993 LINCOLN MARK 8 AND I AM WRITING TO YOU WITH THE CONCERN OF MY HEADLIGHTS. THEY ARE TURNING BROWN AND GETTING DARKER AS THE SEASONS CHANGE . I HAVE ASKED FORD/LINCOLN ABOUT A DEFECT ABOUT THEM AND THEY SAY IM ON MY OWN WITH THEM, EVERY OWNER OF THE MARK 8 HAS THE SIMILAR PROBLEM, THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN ESPECIALLY FOR THE KIDS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. I GET HOME LATE AND IT IS HARD TO SEE IN THE DARK. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS MATTER FOR I AND MANY OTHER OWNERS ARE ASKING THE SAME THANKS. HTTP://WWW.LINCOLNVSCADILLAC.COM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=20070. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE SILVER REFLECTORS INSIDE THE HEADLIGHTS BURNED OUT. THIS MADE DRIVING AT NIGHT DIFFICULT DUE TO THE LACK OF LIGHT PRODUCED FROM THE HEADLIGHTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHO DETERMINED THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. UPDATED 05/03/06
