Mercury Grand Marquis 2003 Exterior LightingMercury Grand Marquis 2003 Exterior Lighting Review #10350085 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003 car safety problem was reported on July 03, 2010.MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . facts: i own a 2003 mercury grand marquis that had total headlight failure while driving 55 mph. although i ran off the road i was able to recover with no damage/injury/loss of life because i was familiar with the road/the car/and sadly, previous experience with total headlight failure in a previous vehicle (2001 dodge durango). once i stopped i checked all obvious things for failure (battery/fuses/etc) but soon realized i had parking lights/turn signals/side marker lights/dash lights/tail lights/and even brake lights...everything except headlights. i tried the high-beam position and no luck there either - until i pulled the multi-function switch toward the steering wheel to the "flash" the high-beam position. i continued to hold the switch in this position and drive with my high-beams on for the few miles i had left to my destination. once home i turned vehicle off gathered my test equipment and began my troubleshooting just to find out that now everything worked as advertised. that held true for approx. 1500 miles ¿ or about 2 months (with initial failure at approx 31,000 miles) when headlights failed again; and now they even fail intermittently at any time to include daylight hours. my troubleshooting revealed the lighting control module (lcm) is the cause of failure, but more importantly, my investigation revealed this is a known failure...by literally hundreds of people...to include you people of the nhtsa. my analysis tells me that the failure is probably not miles related but more likely usage related since my 31+ years (and counting) in the military taught me to drive with my headlights on 24/7/365 in the see and be seen philosophy¿add the fact that i currently have 34,000 miles where most have a lot more. opinion: a 3rd grader could have done the research to identify this is a serious problem and an 8th grader could make the decision to recall the cars for total headlight failure. if you can't - take your loved ones for a ride in my car at night!!! *tr.Mileage was 31000 miles.

(who can afford this, better yet ford needs to own up) this eventually is going to lead to vehicle loss of control with consumers, and fatalities i am afraid, just as the ford explorer did... please have the nhtsb investigate this further, and make ford mo. company due a mandatory recall. this is a very serious issue i'm afraid, and the consumer is having to pay the price for fords negligence. any insight into this investigation is greatly appreciated. thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 95000 miles.
