I was driving home on a dark country road with my granddaughter in the back who is 3 1/2. Had the high beams on. Lost headlights, dash lights, tail and break lights. If it wasn't for knowing the road and no other vehicle was around would have caused a bad wreck. There are a lot of lakes and hills around where I drive. Hit the breaks an came to a stop flipped the headlight switch a couple of times and changed to dim lights and everything came back on. This has happened before and it is only when the high beams are on. If this would of happened on a highway or with other vehicles around hate to think of what would happen. Ford says there is no recall on this problem. It has happened a few times but with the part being over 600. 00 and then paying someone to put it in. I can't afford to do anything.

While driving approximately 45 mph with the high beam headlights activated, the instrument panel indicators, headlights, and brake lights flashed continuously. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was not notified. The approximate failure mileage was unknown.

2000 Grand Marquis experiencing problems with the headlights, interior lights and dashboard lights. ** answer required***. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer but they were unable to find any problems. Two months later while driving, the headlights and dash lights went out. After about 15 seconds the lights came back on.

Vehicle was going about 35 mph when all of a sudden it started shaking. Then, lost its traction control, and caused the lights in the dashboard to turn off. This eventually led the engine to shut off, and the driver lost steering. Taken to dealer for a checkup, but the results showed that the cause was undetermined. Car shuddered, followed by engine shut down resulting in loss of power brakes and steering.
