Had the same problem. I took it back to the dealer everytime and they would replace the bulbs. Then once the car was no longer under warrenty SHOCK AND SURPRISE the whole fixture needs to be replaced. WOW! How does that happen? Sorry for all the sarcasim. Bad design or just Ford quality I don't know. I have no answers just sharing your pain. I'm just going to replace it with an aftermarket setup. Would be love to hear suggestions from you guys on that.

Rice is just a matter of money. How fast do you wanna look!
