2008 Ford Explorer Interior lighting Problems

“We have a 2008 eddie bauer Ford Explorer that we purchased from the dealership in 2008. Earlier this year when we went over a bump, the electronic drivers seat moved back and the interior lights turned on. It took a moment for the lights to turn off, but the seats did not move back in to place. I mentioned it to the dealership during an oil change and they couldn't replicate the problem. Now the problem is so frequent that it happens several times while driving, even on the highway. It does not matter if there are bumps or not. …”

“Interior lights illuminate at any given time while driving at various speeds. Usually after hitting a dip in the road or going over railroad tracks then would gradually turn off.”

“The contact owns a 2008 Ford Explorer xlt. The contact stated that the interior lights would illuminate at any given time while he was driving approximate speeds ranging from 5 to 45 MPH and would gradually turn off. He took the vehicle to the dealer who could not duplicate the failure. The vehicle has not been repaired. He contacted the manufacturer and was told that his vehicle was outside the warranty and that they could not offer any assistance. The current mileage was approximately 37,000. The failure mileage was approximately 36,900.”
