| Description of the problem | Rear passenger led tail light flickers intermittently when headlights are on and brake light on this lamp illuminates though no pressure on the brake pedal. Per my research, ford is charging customers for this repair (up to $500 per light) though it is a safety issue. Flickering light distracting to other drivers as well as unsafe as brake illuminates randomly though i am not braking. |
