Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Headlight cover clouded from age. drivers can't see well at night. i've noticed that all escorts have this problem. i also noticed a recall on replacement lighting that leads to suggest that many others are having to replace the headlight covers. why isn't manufacture responsible for defective parts? especially safety parts. previous owner hit something slightly. i believe this is due to lack of adequate lighting. *nm
