“My wife has told me that on several occasions she has replaced the brake light on the right rear of her 1991 Ford Aerostar. I saw a Ford Aerostar minivan with a burned out brake light on my way to work today. Plus someone told me about an exact same problem involving a Ford Aerostar minivan. I have ruled out coincidence. What do you know about this problem.? Thanks I also listen to cartalk, with klick and klack, the tappett brothers. That was how I found out about your hotline.”
NHTSA complaint #744130, filed 2001-04“I have been driving at night on several different occasions and had the headlights suddenly go out on me. The switch for the lights seems to be warm at these times. The heater seems to cause the switch to heat up and when it gets hot the lights go off. It may cause an accident one of these times if it isn't fixed. I'm not sure if replacing the switch will help or if it will happen even with a new switch beacuse of the heat problem. Maybe the design of where the switch is is bad. Please advise me on what to do. Thank you.”
