| Description of the problem | It has been three weeks since i purchased a 2010 mercury milan with 41,000 miles but last night i discovered both rear brake light illuminated with the headlights on. My profession is in the safety field which leads me to say that if this vehicle was on my job site it would be tagged out of service due to improper safety equipment. I have had issues with ford motor company in the past and even though i do like their products they have to take responsibility and be accountable for what they sell to individuals. There should be a recall for this safety equipment. I will not allow my family to operate this vehicle in it's present condition. |
