Hazard Flashing Warning Light Unit Problems of Mercury Grand Marquis

First tried the hazard warning lights while parked on the side of a highway and they did not work. When I drove off I put the headlights on and turned on the windshield wipers. When I got home I turned off the wipers and the headlights but the headlights stayed on. I disconnected the battery cable and 2 days later I drove to the Ford dealership. While driving I noticed that my turn signals were not working. When I got to the dealership I pointed out these problems to the service manager. I left the car and they diagnosed a bad light control module. My car is 2008 Mercury Grand Marquis LS with 57,628 miles. They charged me $740 to replace the module. I researched recalls and I saw a recall 15s39 with # 15v861000 for this exact problem but it only applied to these same cars thru cy 2005. My car is a 2008. I talked to the dealer and the Ford customer representative at 866 436 7332 and they said the NHTSA determines the effected VIN number vehicles. There is also a Ford customer satisfaction program 14n01 which dealt with this settlement for vehicles thru cy 2005. I believe they extended the warranty for the lcm module for 15 years and 250,000 miles for the effected vehicles thru cy 2005 and they even recompensated customer's who paid for exorbitant repair bills for the light control module. My dealer invoice # is 460317 with kelly Ford, inc, 776 s. Magnolia Ave, melbourne, FL. 32935 (321) 254-4283.

Vehicle was parked. I went to turn my headlights on. No headlights, turn signals, dash lights, hazard flashers or dome light. The 2003-2005 models were recalled for this same thing with the lcm failing. Please look into this as this is a serious safety issue.

While driving on the massachusetts turnpike at night the headlights shut off with no warning, notice or anything. Never had this happen before. Scared us to death!!! we immediately turned the signal to pull over to the shoulder and then they came back on. About 2 minutes later they went off again. My boyfriend pulled over to the shoulder and turned on the hazard lights and shut the car off. We then turned the car back on and had no headlights, just marker lights. But, if you held the stick for the high beams you could use those. Then the lights miraculously clicked on and stayed on for the rest of the way home. This has been a continuous problem. After much research I have found out it is the lighting control module. Approximately a $650 part and about $200 for labor. I contacted Ford motor company and they do not feel that this is a safety issue and are going to do nothing about it!!! really!!!! I am part of a website and I get numerous emails for people that have the same problem. I am afraid to drive at night because I never know when the lights will work or not. I dont want to blind people driving behind them and it just really sucks that Ford does not think that driving down the road at night with no headlights is not a safety concern. . . . Why doesnt the Ford executive try driving home in the dark with my car and see how he likes it. Then we will see if it is a safety issue or not, huh??.
