Description of the problem	One month after my nhtsa complaint # 10563879, the left side tail/brake light system is now responding in the same manner. Ie: brake lights function normally during the day without the tail lights on, but when tail lights are activated, they shine at full 100% intensity, as if the brakes were applied. Brake application is now only shown by the small third center light. Whenever i see a milan in my city at night, which is the only time it will be evident, i try to follow it to see if it has this issue also. I'll find that usually 1 or both of this vehicles lights do this, and the owners do not realize it. I feel this is a widespread safety issue, compounded by the owner being unaware of a problem. No dash warning is shown. And yes, ford wants $400 for this lamp. Replacing it is the only fix.
