I HAVE A 2003 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS WITH 49,000 MILES. IT STARTED HAVING A GRINDING NOISE IN THE REAR END. I CARRIED THE VEHICLE TO MY MERCURY DEALER.

I THINK NHTSA CLOSING PE08-066 HAS RESULTED IN A FAILURE TO ACCURATELY ADDRESS THIS AS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND AS A PRODUCT DEFECT AND FORD HAS FAILED IN THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE OBLIGATIONS TO A PAST VALUED CUSTOMER. FAILURE SEEMS TO BE A MATTER OF NOT IF BUT WHEN THIS FAILURE WILL OCCUR ON THESE VEHICLES. *TR.Mileage was 154000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2MEFM75WX3X.

THIS HAPPENED AFTER PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE, IT TOOK OFF AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE OF SPEED CROSSED A STREET AND JUMPED TWO CURBS ABOUT 15 INCHES HIGH WITHIN 5 OR 6 SECONDS. MY THOUGHTS WERE "WHAT IS HAPPENING?" & "BRAKE OR YOU ARE GOING TO DIE" THANK GOD THIS VEHICLE DROWN IN HURRICANE KATRINA. I CALLED YOUR OFC IN 2004 AFTER THIS HAPPENED AND WAS SENT A FORM TO FILL OUT AND RETURN TO YOU WHICH I NEVER DID. HOWEVER, WITH THE TOYOTA RECALL IT DISTURBS ME THAT MY FORD DID THE SAME THING. AN INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE MADE AS TO WHY THESE THINGS ARE HAPPENING BECAUSE IN MY CASE IT WAS NOT A FLOOR MAT AND NEITHER WAS IT DRIVER'S ERROR. IT IS IMPORTANT TO MYSELF THAT THIS INCIDENT IS REPORTED AND HOPEFULLY SOMEONE WILL TAKE IT SERIOUS AND FIND OUT WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM IS BEFORE MORE LIVES ARE LOST. I CONSIDER MYSELF VERY LUCKY THAT I WAS NOT INJURED AND OTHERS WERE NOT INJURED. MY VEHICLE SUSTAINED $5,000.00 WORTH OF DAMAGE AND AT THE TIME THE INCIDENT WAS REPORTED TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP.

I AM HAVING HEADLIGHT FAILURE DUE TO LIGHT CONTROL MODULE(LCM/LIGHT BOX) ISSUES. AS I HAVE FOUND OUT WHILE RESEARCHING THE WEB I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON HAVING THIS PROBLEM THE HEADLIGHTS WILL SWITCH OFF AND ON NO MATTER IF YOUR DRIVING OR NOT. MANY TIMES THEY WILL NOT COME ON AT ALL. I AM FORCED TO STOP ONCE THEY GO OUT AND WAIT UNTIL THEY DECIDE TO SWITCH BACK ON TO CONTINUE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE PART AND REPAIR WILL BE 900.00 BY A LOCAL DEALER DUE TO THE FACT THAT THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A RECALL ISSUED. WHAT EXACTLY NEEDS TO HAPPEN TO GET THIS SAFETY ISSUE REMEDIED? PLEASE TAKE A DEEP LOOK INTO THIS. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON A LONG DARK HWY WHEN THIS HAS HAPPEN DO IT TAKE FOR SOMEONE TO BE KILLED !!!!

MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003 car safety problem was reported on Apr 30, 2010.MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . WHILE DRIVING MY 2003 MERCURY MARQUIS ONE EVENING, MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. I TRIED TURNING THE SWITCH ON THE DASHBOARD TO THE HEADLIGHT POSITION BECAUSE ORIGINALLY IT WAS ON THE SENSOR POSITION, BUT THEY DIDN'T COME BACK ON. NO MATTER WHAT I DID, THEY REMAINED OFF. FROM THAT NIGHT ON, MY HEADLIGHTS WORK SPORADICALLY. SOMETIMES THEY'LL COME ON RIGHT AWAY AND THEN GO OUT WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES THEY'LL COME ON IN THE DAYLIGHT WITH THE SWITCH IN THE OFF POSITION. IT'S VERY SCARY WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING DOWN A BACK COUNTRY ROAD WHERE THERE'S NO STREET LIGHTS AND YOUR HEADLIGHTS GO OUT. THE ONLY WAY I COULD GET LIGHT WAS TO HOLD BACK ON THE HIGH BEAM LEVER. THAT WAS WEIRD TOO BECAUSE THE HIGH BEAMS WOULDN'T WORK WHEN I PUT THE LEVER IN THE ON POSITION, ONLY WHEN I PULLED BACK ON THE LEVER WHICH PUTS THE HIGH BEAMS ON FOR AS LONG AS YOU HOLD THE LEVER. ONE NIGHT I DROVE FOR ABOUT 5 MILES AND THE HEADLIGHTS STAYED ON THE WHOLE TIME. THERE'S JUST NO KNOWING WHEN THEY'RE GOING TO WORK, AND IF THEY DO, HOW LONG THEY'LL STAY ON. I UNDERSTAND IT'S GOING TO BE VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT I DON'T HAVE $800 SO HAVEN'T HAD IT REPAIRED YET. I JUST DON'T DRIVE AFTER DARK, WHICH IS VERY INCONVENIENT! *TR.Mileage was 76000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2MEFM75W23X.

MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003 car safety problem was reported on June 01, 2010.MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . MY 2003 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS BEGAN EXPERIENCING HEADLIGHT FAILURE OVER A PERIOD OF MONTHS, WITH BOTH LOWER BEAMS RANDOMLY GOING OFF AND THEN AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OR HOURS COMING BACK ON. OTHER INTERNAL LIGHTS AND LIGHT SENSORS CONTINUED TO WORK NORMALLY. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON AN UNLIGHTED ROAD AT NIGHT, CREATING A DANGEROUS SITUATION, UNABLE TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD OR OTHER CARS SEEING ME COMING. NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE08066 DESCRIBES A SIMILAR PROBLEMS CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD IN THE LIGHT CONTROL MODULE (LCM), RESULTING IN SEVERAL THOUSAND WARRANTY CLAIMS. IN FACT, THIS HAS BEEN DETERMINED TO BE THE DEFECTIVE PART ON MY CAR, WHICH HAS NOW BEEN REPLACED BY A FORD DEALER AT A COST OF $511.07 FOR THE LCM PLUS $184.97 LABOR AND TAX. FORD ADVISES ME THAT MY CAR WAS NOT IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, BUT OBVIOUSLY IT HAS DEVELOPED THE SAME PROBLEM. AN UPGRADED PART LCM HAS BEEN DEVELOPED BY FORD FOR REPLACEMENT. I BELIEVE I SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS EARLIER FOR REPLACEMENT SO I WOULD NOT HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE ODI INVESTIGATION WAS CLOSED 3/24/09. I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE REOPENED AS DEALERS TELL ME THAT THEY REPLACE "LOTS" OF THESE MODULES. I HAVE RETAINED THE DEFECTIVE LCM FOR ANALYSIS. *TR.Mileage was 62127 miles.

MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003 car safety problem was reported on Mar 01, 2010.MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . HELLO, WE HAVE A 2003 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS THAT HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE HEAD LIGHTS SHUTTING OFF AT RANDOM TIMES. NOTHING GAVE WARNING TO THIS PROBLEM HAPPENING, WE BOUGHT THE CAR USED, AND WAS JUST FINE FOR A YEAR, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN ONE DAY THE HEADLIGHTS JUST GO OUT. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO(3-1-10). NOW EVERYTIME IT IS DRIVEN WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON, IT IS GUARANTEED TO HAPPEN AT LEAST ONCE AND SOMETIMES UP TO 5 TIMES JUST IN 3 MILES OF DRIVING ON MY WIFE'S WAY HOME FROM WORK. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE LIGHTS BACK ON AFTER THEY GO OUT IS TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, SHUT THE CAR OFF, LET SIT FOR A FEW MIN, THEN START AND THEY WORK AGAIN FOR A BIT. THIS IS OVERALL VERY DANGEROUS AND SURPRISING THAT WE HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OR RECEIVED A TICKET YET! I AM A ACTIVE MEMBER ON A CROWN VICTORIA FORUM, AND WITH LITTLE SEARCHING ON THAT SITE OR GOOGLE YOU WILL SEE TONS OF REPORTS OF THIS BEING A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON THE 2003-2005 CROWN VICTORIA, GRAND MARQUIS, AND MERCURY MARAUDER. WITH THE HELP OF OTHER MEMBERS ON THAT FORUM IT WAS FOUND TO BE A FAULTY LCM(LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE) WHICH HAS A PROBLEM WITH OVERHEATING LIGHTING RELAYS. THE ONLY WAY TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM IS TO PURCHASE A NEW LCM FOR ANYWHERE BETWEEN $250 AND $600 WITH NO GUARANTEE HOW LONG THAT PART WILL LAST. I ACTUALLY PURCHASED A NEW ONE TODAY. VERY EXPENSIVE FIX JUST FOR THE USE OF HEADLIGHTS, BUT I VALUE MY FAMILIES SAFETY MORE. I WILL BE KEEPING MY OLD LCM TO POSSIBLY HAVE IT REPAIRED FOR WHEN MY NEW PART FAILS AGAIN. THANKS SO MUCH. *TR.Mileage was 65000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2MEFM74W03X. MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003 problem was reported in ST. JOSEPH, MN.

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. MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003 problem was reported in NICEVILLE, FL.

TWO PROBLEMS I HAVE WITH THIS CAR IS THAT THE HUBCAPS ARE CRAP, THEY RATTLE WHEN I DRIVE, ONE CAME OFF COMPLETELY AND I HAD TO STOP AND GET IT. I AM NOW LOOKING TO REPLACE THEM. THE SECOND PROBLEM IS MY MAJOR CONCERN AND THAT IS LCM(LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE) I HAD AN ACCIDENT (MINOR) BUT I DID DAMAGE THE FRONT END. UPON COMPLETION OF THE REPAIRS, MY CAR STAYED AT REPAIR BECAUSE THE LIGHTS WOULD NOT WORK.WOW NOT COOL. I GOT THE CAR BACK AND DRIVING ONE EVENING MY LIGHTS WENT OUT. THE MECHANIC AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO SEVERAL OTHER MECHANICS AND THE SWITCH WAS THOUGHT TO BE THE PROBLEM BUT AFTER TWO WEEKS AND SEVERAL MECHANICS, THE PROBLEM IS A $500.00 PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD NOT TO DRIVE WITH THE LIGHTS ON AUTOMATIC BECAUSE IT CAUSES THE INSIDE CASING TO HEAT UP. THE LCM (LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE) IS BAD, I WAS GIVEN SOME INFO OFF THE INTERNET AND THE MECHANIC SAID HE HAD JUST REPLACED THE LCM ON FOUR CARS THAT WEEK. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. I WAS TOLD THE AUTOMATIC LIGHT MECHANISM WAS NOT PERFECTED AND IT IS BEST TO DRIVE WITH THE AUTOMATIC LIGHTS OFF AND TO USE THEM MANUALLY. UNTIL I COULD REPLACE THE MODULE. I NEED MY VEHICLE AS I AM DISABLED AND I HAVE SPENT $2500, I DO NOT HAVE THE $500.00 PLUS LABOR TO REPLACE THE LCM. *TR.Vehicle was involved in a crash. Mileage was 64000 miles.

I HAVE TWO COMPLAINTS, MY FIRST COMPLAINT IS, I OWN A 2003 GRAND MARQUIS. I HAVE TO BE TO WORK @ 3 IN THE MORNING SO ONE DAY I WAS HEADED TO WORK ON A DARK ROAD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY LIGHT TURN OFF BY THEMSELVES. I PULLED OVER AND PLAYED WITH THE LIGHT SWITCH AND IT CAME BACK ON. THE NEXT DAY IT DID IT AGAIN, AND I REPEATED THE SAME STEPS. SO FOR THE THIRD DAY THEY DIDN'T COME ON AT ALL. I TOOK IT TO FORD THE SAME DAY AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE LCM, WHICH WOULD COST A ESTIMATED 750.00 DOLLARS TO REPLACE IT. I HAD TO HOLD THE BRIGHT LIGHTS TIL I SAVED ENOUGH MONEY TO GET IT REPLACED. MY OTHER COMPLAINT IS ABOUT THE A/C CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT, THIS IS ANOTHER MAJOR PROBLEM.

MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003 car safety problem was reported on Dec 12, 2011.MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . THE HEAD LIGHTS WILL TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. THEY WILL THEN GO BACK ON AFTER AN INDETERMINATE PERIOD OF TIME. IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHETHER THE LIGHT CONTROL SWITCH ON THE DASH IS ON AUTOMATIC OR NOT. THIS MAY HAPPEN ANY NUMBER OF TIMES EVEN DURING A SHORT TRIP. THE PROBLEM IS THE LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE FOR WHICH FORD HAS A NEWLY DESIGNED PART, BUT NO RECALL OR SERVICE BULLETIN. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUE TO HAVE YOUR LIGHTS GO OUT AND LOSE ALL FORWARD VISIBILITY, ESPECIALLY ON A RAINY NIGHT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON SUCH AN OBVIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. .Mileage was 84700 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2MEHM75W13X.

I'M NOW 3 FOR 3 FAILURES WITH THE LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE ON MODEL AND YEAR CAR. INITIAL FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74000, CURRENT MILEAGE 75500. INTERMITTANT LIGHTING FAILURES.

OTHER NIGHT, I ALMOST HIT DEER A/C I HAD NO LIGHTS! THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT YET BEEN REPAIRED, BUT MUST BE SOON, AS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ESCALLATING. AS JUNK YARDS ARE OUT OF PARTS LOCALLY (I DO NOT USE PART 3W7T-13C788-AH AS THAT IS THE DEFECTIVE ONE! I USE AG - EVERYTHING WILL WORK BUT MAP LIGHTS AND THIS LCM WILL NOT FAIL.) I WILL HAVE TO LIKELY GET ONE OUT OF THE AREA. SO, MY EXPERIENCE ON THIS VEHICLE/YEAR IS 100% PART FAILURE.
