| Description of the problem | This mercury along with countless others has the headlights go out as you drive down the road. If this is not a safety issue i don't know what is. I have to pull off the road and wait till they come back on. I called my lincoln dealer and they said it was $107/hour to diagnose the problem. If it is the lighting control module as it rumored to be the bad part, the cost is another $800. I think this should be a safety recall before people are killed. *tt |
