2000 Mercury Sable ls wagon rear roof brake light reflector. This brake lamp reflector lens has come apart because of a poor sealant used to glue the reflector lens to the body of the assembly. This leaves the top rear brake lamp exposed to the elements and no red reflective light for vehicles behind to see.
