Instructions in owner's manual for replacing brake light indicates specific instructions that have caused additional problems with operation of brake lights. Please give any further details.
The first defect is about the shifting gears light. I can not see the shifting gears at night unless I turn the car's light on or sometimes I use a light app to see them. This is because the shifting gears don't show up on the screen and also there's no led lights for the shifting gears the other problem I want to report is that these cars have always had loud noises and I am suspecting there's transmission/engine defects. Now I am left with a disabled vehicle because the transmission just decided to break on me, I drove it perfectly fine the day before it broke down. The next day, as I was using the car, I turned it on and the steering wheel became really hard and the car was moving super slowly so I decided to park it right back. After I told a mechanic expert about it, he told me the transmission is gone. I don't have no money to repair it because transmission replacement cost a lot of money. Ford should really take a look at this vehicle and fix the many defects they came up with.
