1993 LINCOLN MARK VIII Complaints

I HAVE RECENTLY HIT A DEER RAN OVER A RACOON AND NEARLY HIT ABOUT 3 MAIL BOXES. THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE LIKE CANDLESTICKS. WHEN THE ROAD IS DAMP YOU MIGHT AS WELL TURN YOUR LIGHTS OFF. THE REVERSE LIGHTS ON THIS CAR ARE BRIGHTER THAN THE HEADLIGHTS. NO JOKING. THIS CAR NEEDS THE REPLACEMENT HID CONVERSION THAT WAS OFFERED IN THE SAME BODYSTYLE IN 1996. THANK YOU FOR READING THIS EVEN THOUGH IT PROBABLY WONT HELP. 1993 LINCOLN MARK VIII. SCOTT BYRAM 815-498-3682. *AK

THE HEAD LAMPS OF THIS CAR ARE SMALL WITH MAKES IT HARD ENOUGH TO SEE BUT THEY EASILY TURN A YELLOW COLOR THAT CAN'T BE CLEANED. IT'S VERY HARD TO SEE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT AND MOST OF THE TIME I USE MY HIGH BEAMS. I'VE ALMOST BEEN HIT AT LEAST TWICE, AT NIGHT, ONCE SOMEONE PULLING OUT OF PARKING LOT THE OTHER TIME THEY WERE MAKING A RIGHT TURN ONTO THE STREET I WAS ON, AND DIDN'T SEE MY CAR. THE 1996 MARK VIII CAME WITH VERY GOOD HID HEAD LAMPS, I BELEIVE ALL OF THESE CARS NEED TO HAVE THEM.

THE HEADLIGHT ON THIS VEHICLE ARE EXTREMELY DIM AND CAUSE SAFETY CONCERNS WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. *AK

ORIGINAL HEADLIGHTS WERE SO POOR THAT I PAID TO UPGRADE THEM TO THE UPDATED HID LIGHTING FOUND ON THE 96 MODEL YEAR. THESE ORIGINAL LENSES WERE UNSAFE, AND ALMOST USELESS WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. *AK

THE HEADLIGHTS ON LINCOLN MARK VIII, YEAR 1993 AND ON ARE REALLY BAD AND IT ALSO MAKES IT HARDER TO SEE AT NIGHT. IF YA THINK ABOUT ITS NOT SAFE!!! I REALLY THINK THAT FORD SHOULD RECALL ALL THE HEADLIGHTS BECAUSE IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHOS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE HEADLIGHTS!!!*AK

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS CAR ARE THE WORST I HAVE EVER SEEN. BUILT FOR FORD BY SYLVANIA, THEY PUT ALMOST NO LIGHT ON THE ROAD AND THE CAR US USELESS AT NIGHT. FORD CHANGED THE HEADLIGHT DESIGN IN 1996 AND THOSE CARS HAVE GOOD LIGHTING. I HAVE CONTACTED LINCOLN DIVISION AND THEY STATE THERE IS NO PROBLEM. IF THERE IS NO PROBLEM, WHY CAN I NOT SEE TO DRIVE THIS CAR AT NIGHT? I HAVE THREE OTHER VEHICLES THAT COST LESS AND I CAN SEE TO DRIVE THEM AT NIGHT. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH OTHER MARK VIII OWNERS AND THEY ALL ARE HAVEING THE SAME PROBLEM!*AK

HEADLIGHTS (EVEN WITH NEW BULBS) ARE SO DIM NIGHTTIME DRIVING IS DANGEROUS. DEALER CAN FIND NOTHING ELECTRICALLY WRONG - JUST A FAILURE OF THE REFLECTIVE NATURE OF THE LIGHT HOUSING OVER TIME.*AK

HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH, DEALER HAD NO REMEDY. CONSUMER CHANGED HEADLIGHTS HIMSELF TO ONES MADE FOR A 1996, MARK, VIII LSC, HID HEADLIGHTS.*AK

HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE. YOU CANT SEE ANYTHING OUT OF THEM. THE 96 AND UP MARKS HAVE HIDS.*AK

THE FACTORY HEADLIGHT ILLUMINTATION OF ROADWAY IS VERY INFERIOR TO OTHER VEHICLES I HAVE DRIVEN AT NIGHT.*AK
