1995 Lincoln Mark Viii Exterior lighting Problems

“Traveling from dallas, tx to athens, al 7:30pm lights so dim I could barely see the road ahead. I have used cleaning kits several times to clean the headlight lens with no results. I also purchased and installed replacement headlight assemblies from ebay with no improvement in the lighting. I have tried several different bulbs with no improvement. This is really a safety problem. I have been lucky so far. ..updated 01/17/2013”

“Stock and standard aftermarket headlights on generation one Lincoln Mark Viii are extremely dangerous, especially in places like washington state. I have run off the road many occasions. Headlights do not give enough light to safely drive at night or in rain/bad weather. Personally I have had many close calls do to the lack of light and or had to use brights. If it ever does happen I will defiantly go after ford motor company. You plain and simply can't see the road, anything on the road, street signs, lane markers, fog lines, nothing. …”

“I have a 1995 Lincoln Mark Viii lsc. The head lights are so dim, at night I am unable to have a full visual of what most car-owners are able to see. This problem is due to the headlights on my car, with brand new bulbs)I know some people that have around the same year as me with the same model (2 1994's and 1 1995) they have the same problem. I have also looked into it through vast amounts of Mark Viii forums and the result is the same. This is a hazard to everyone's safety in and around these vehicles, and this is a problem that must be rectified by the Lincoln manufacture. …”

“The dealer promised to fix unacceptable intensity of headlights. They polished lenses and added new bulbs. This did not correct the problem. I have checked with other owners on message boards, who have the exact same complaint. This was a high ticket automobile and I believe the inner reflectors have burned out over a short time. It is a safety hazard as the light does not disperse. I am asking along with many other owners to try and put pressure on ford to recall all these substandard headlights for mark v111 lincolns around 1994 to 1996. Thanking you and will await your reply. …”
