VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:MOTOR
I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM MYSELF WITH 2 FORD MOTOR CO VEHICLES I OWN AND ONE MY FATHER OWNS. THE 2001 EXCURSION I OWN IS BEING RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM - THE INTERMITTENT WIPER MOTOR FUNCTION EITHER SHUTS THE WIPER BLADE ACTION DOWN OR THE BLADES DO NOT PARK. THE OTHER VEHICLES AFFECTED ARE THE ONE DESCRIBED IN THIS REPORT (1990 LINCON MKVII), A 1992 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS, AND A 1995 LINCOLN TOWN CAR.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
LIGHTING IS TOTALLY INADEQUATE AT LOW BEAM. THIS IS A SERIOUS HEALTH HAZARD TO ALL NORTH AMERICANS. THE COMPANY HAS REBUFFED AND IGNORED MY ATTEMPTS TO SAVE HUMAN LIVES. THERE IS NO WAY THE LIGHTING IS APPROPRIATE - I HAVE SPENT $900 ON NEW LIGHT ASSEMBLIES AND HAVE DETERMINED A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW EXISTS WITH THIS AUTOMOBILE.*AK

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
HEADLIGHTS ARE INADEQUATE, I HAVE POLISHED THE LENSES TO IMPROVE VISIBILITY,BUT WITH LIMITED IMPROVEMENT. ALL FORD PRODUCT HEAD LAMPS SEEM TO SUFFER THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT THE MARK VIII IS THE WORST DUE TO ITS SMALL HEADLIGHT DESIGN. PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL AND HAVE MANUFACTURERS INSTALL A HIGHER QUALITY LEXAN FOR LIGHTING. THANK YOU. *AK

WHEELS
THE WHEELS ARE CRACKING FROM UNDERNEATH THE CHROME. A BLISTER APPEARS BEFORE THE CRACKING. THESE WHEELS ARE ALUMINUN UNDER THE CHROME AND WERE USED ON 96 TO 98 LSC MODELS ONLY. A FORD REPRESENTATIVE LOOKED AT THE PROBLEM, CONSULTED WITH ENGINEERING, AND OFFERED TO REPLACE THE WHEELS AT 40% OFF LISTED PRICE. IF MY VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRENTY (LESS THAN 50K MILES) LINCOLN WOULD HAVE REPLACED THEM WITHOUT COST TO ME.
