| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Headlamps flicker- when my headlamps ,"flicker", they get so dim that i am concerned i will not see items in the path of my moving vehicle. i have had two near misses; one with an animal at large, the other much more serious, and a pedestrian in a crosswalk. the alternator replacement was done 2 times, battery replacement done once. when i brought it to the attention of my service advisor at ford he stated that this is only a bulletin because it is not considered to be a safety issue since the lights do not go completely out. my children whom ride in this car and the pedestrian that i could not see would deem this a major safety concern right along with myself and other passengers who have experienced this problem in my vehicle. i only drive my car after dark because i have no other car. *jb |
