The contact owns a 2018 Lincoln Mkx.

Service Brakes problem #2

Was advised by a law enforcement officer the high-mount stop lamp lens had detatched from the lamp housing. Apparently, the adhesive holding the plastic lens had deteriorated and allowed seperation of the components. The led circuit board is now exposed to the elements. This without a doubt will cause the chmsl to fail due to water and salt intrusion. Additionally, the non-diffused led's are blinding drivers behind this vehicle at night. This failure occurred on the highway, and the lens nearly struck a car behind me.
