Vehicle experiencing ongoing problem with electric door lock keeping clicking, and courtesy light would intermittently come on while driving. Vehicle been in dealer shop on several occasions, and unable to resolve the problem. Please feel free to provide any further details.
When entering a dark tunnel headlight switch is moved to manual setting to override the automatic feature, headlights come on immediately, as they should, however dash lights are delayed upto 25 seconds causing the vechicle to travel up to 1/2 mile without being able to monitor the speedometer or critical gauges, other Lincoln models I tested don't have this delay in there system. This is a safety defect according to everyone I tell about it, although wasington state lemon law ruled against me on this matter and encourages the manufactor to continue to produce a defective car.
Automatic sensor overrides driver's ability to turn on dashboard lights. Qcaw.
