“Ford taurus 1993 sho cruise control pressure switch on brake master cylinder burned. On this model this circuit shares the same fuse with the rear brake lights. Luckily I noticed the loss of brake lights right away and disconnected the burned cruise control switch and replaced the fuse. Driving without rear brake lights is a definite hazard. My vehicle is not listed in the recall with the nearly 1 million f-150s and crown victorias but I suspect that the switch is from the same vendor. Ford has an improved switch available and I believe my vehicle should be added to the recall. …”
