Ford cant build a freaking electrical system thats worth anything to save their life! This is only 1 of many problems that I have with my cars system. It is only a 98 with 84000 miles! I baby this thing because it is paid off! ( the only reason i keep it) and it still falls apart on me!

Brake light plugs loose connection (wear out). Dealer only sells the entire wiring harness. Had to get another tail light socket assembly from junk yard was inexpensive but problem is beginning to reoccur.
