problem #1

Nov 292005

Fusion 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 2,000 miles
: the contact stated the third brake lamp which is located behind the rear seat blocks his view. At night you cannot see the headlights of other cars that are close. The contact feels the lamp should be relocated in the trunk deck or above the rear window. Updated 2/13/2006 - the consumer had one minor accident. He backed into a post that was only about 3-4' high. The post could not be seen because of the vehicle's high back design and the high mount brake light blocking his view.
