14 Investigations for 2004 FORD Crown Victoria

In a letter dated october 2, 2014 the office of defects investigation (odi) was initially petitioned by the north carolina consumers council, inc. requesting a defect investigation of an alleged defect condition resulting in headlight and/or exterior lighting failure on 2003-2005 ford crown victoria and mercury grand marquis vehicles.odi analyzed vehicle owner questionnaire (voq) complaints received from consumers and identified a total of 605 reports (for all submission dates) alleging headlight failure.the complaints indicate failures of both low beam headlights typically while driving, a defect condition that was evaluated under a prior odi investigation (pe08066).most consumer voqs indicate that the headlights failed suddenly and without warning leaving the driver with no forward lighting, however some report the headlights flickered or dimmed prior to turning off.in some cases drivers were able to turn the headlights back on after a period of time while others reported the headlights would not come back on at all.consumers noted they were able to hold the "flash to pass" lever on the steering column mounted stalk to activate the high beams however this is only effective as long as the lever is actuated.odi identified 4 voq reports alleging minor crash or loss of control incidents due to headlight failures.drivers indicated running off of the road due to a lack of headlights and one driver reportedly struck a deer.no injuries were indicated in the voq crashes.in response to odi's april 7, 2015 information request letter, ford provided data indicating it has received 3,092 complaints of failed headlights related to the lighting control module (lcm), a device that controls the headlights and other lighting functions.this number includes the complaints ford reviewed and classified as headlight failure due specifically to the lcm.within ford's complaints, there are 11 reports alleging a crash occurred.these drivers reported hitting objects, including other vehicles after the headlights failed causing damage to the affected vehicles.one driver was injured when their car struck an unseen object in the road, jerking the steering wheel from their hands and injuring their shoulder.in total 15 crash allegations were identified, all of which have occurred since odi's prior evaluation of this issue.this petition has been granted.preliminary evaluation pe15-028 has been opened to assess the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequences of the alleged defect.the odi reports cited above can be reviewed at www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/owners/sarchnhtsaid under the identification (odi) numbers found in the attached list.

On september 6, 2005, odi received a petition requesting that the agency investigate allegations of engine spark plug ejection in certain model year 1997 through 2004 ford vehicles with triton v-8 and v-10 engines.odi received a total of 474 non-duplicative complaints on the subject vehicles where the complainant, or the dealer repairing the vehicle, reported that a spark plug detached from the cylinder and/or ejected from the engine.as of december 8, 2005, odi is not aware of any allegations where the alleged defect resulted in a loss of vehicle control, a crash, an injury, or a fatality in any of the 10,319,810 subject vehicles.in addition, odi is aware of only two incidents where the vehicle stalled without restart.information contained in the odi consumer complaints and obtained from 72 telephone interviews with complainants showed the following:(1) 99% of the complaints were on my 1997 to 2002 subject vehicles.(2) most the complainants reported hearing a loud pop while driving or upon starting up the vehicle followed by a loud, repetitive clicking or popping sound.(3) many of the complainants reported that the popping sound was accompanied by some loss of vehicle power; however, in 99% of the incidents reported, the vehicle did not stall.in the very few incidents where the vehicle did stall, most vehicles could be restarted.(4) only a small percentage of the complainants cited that they smelled gas or a slight burning smell when the incident occurred.(5) in all but a very few incidents, vehicle damage was limited to the engine.in one incident, the complaint reported that the fuel rail was damaged and replaced after one of the spark plugs ejected from the engine; however, the complainant reported that the damage did not result in any type of fuel leak or fire.in another incident, the only incident where a fire was alleged, the complainant reported that no fluid leak was observed, but that a fire resulted after the spark plug had ejected from the engine and he had restarted the vehicle and driven to another location.none of the complainants reported any damage to the vehicle hood.(6) only two complainants reported that they observed what appeared to be some drops of fuel coming from the cylinder where the spark plug had failed or on the spark plug itself; however, each of these complainants reported that there was no smoke or flames as a result of his incident.as the petitioner noted, and odi¿s analysis showed, it is possible for a spark plug to detach from the engine cylinder threads in the subject vehicles.however, odi¿s analysis of 474 complaints describing such incidents found only a very few alleged any safety-related consequences.none of these showed any evidence of a serious safety consequence.given the large population and relatively long exposure time of the subject vehicles, the complaint analysis indicates that the risk to motor vehicle safety from the alleged defect is very low.in view of the foregoing, it is unlikely that nhtsa would issue an order for the notification and remedy of the alleged defect at the conclusion of the investigation requested in the petition.therefore, in view of the need to allocate and prioritize nhtsa¿s limited resources to best accomplish the agency¿s safety mission, the petition is denied.

The office of defects investigation (odi) opened an investigation concerning the loss of headlights in model year (my) 2003-2005 ford crown victoria and mercury grand marquis vehicles. the subject vehicles share the same architecture and major components.odi has received 636 unique reports (for all submission dates) related to the alleged defect, with owners describing a loss of both low and/or high beam headlights occurring while driving.odi identified 4 vehicle owner questionnaire ( voq) reports alleging minor crash or loss of control incidents due to headlight failures.drivers alleged running off of the road due to a lack of headlights and one driver reportedly struck a deer.no injuries were indicated in the voq crashes.in response to odi's information request (ir) letter, ford motor company (ford) responded with 4173 unique reports related to the alleged problem.there were a total of 11 crashes reported within that group as well as one injury that occurred when the vehicle struck an unseen object on the side of the road when the headlights failed. ford also submitted 49,843 warranty claims related to headlight failures.most reports indicate that the headlights failed without warning leaving the driver with no forward lighting, however some noted the headlights flickered or dimmed prior to turning off.consumers also noted they were able to hold the "flash to pass" lever on the steering column mounted stalk to activate the high beams however this is only effective as long as the lever is physically actuated.on december 21st, 2015 ford notified odi that it would conduct a safety recall (15v-861) to remedy headlight failures on (my) 2003-2005 ford crown victoria and mercury grand marquis vehicles.according to ford, the headlights of the vehicle are controlled by the lighting control module (lcm) located in the engine compartment of the vehicle.the lcm uses an internal relay, mounted to a circuit board, to control power to the headlights. the headlight relay is soldered to the circuit board at six different terminals. the original equipment lcms were manufactured in a manner that resulted in the solder joints fatiguing and/or cracking as a result of repeated thermal cycling and/or vibration, a defect condition. the condition could be exacerbated by manufacturing quality issues such as an insufficient amount of solder, effecting the continuity between the circuit board and the relay terminal, and resulting in loss of headlights while driving.other lighting functions are unaffected by this condition.the lcm manufacturing processes were revised to address the defect condition and ford has been conducting a warranty extension program to cover defective lcms since late 2013.under the recall ford will replace any remaining defective lcms in recalled vehicles with remedy lcms once they become available.see nhtsa recall 15v-861 for further details on the safety recall.the recall action initiated by ford addresses the safety risks of concern to odi.accordingly, the investigation is closed.the odi reports cited above can be reviewed at safercar.gov under the identification (odi) numbers found in the attached list.
