NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 01V078 Potential Number Of Units Affected: 157000 Summary: On certain passenger vehicles equipped with adjustable pedals, if the grease from the adjustable pedal assembly enters the stop lamp switch, it can contaminate the contacts leading to carbon build up, and potentially, a short circuit. A short circuit could lead to either the brake lamps staying on or to a loss of brake lamp function, increasing the risk of a crash. Remedy: Dealers will replace the brake lamp switch and wipe down the adjustable pedal assembly to remove excess grease. The manufacturer has reported that owner notification began on March 26, 2001. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673. Dates of Manufacture: May 1999 - August 2000 Models Involved: Taurus, Cougar Manufacturer Recall Number: 01S08 |
