Read complaints for FORD CVPI (2004)
I own a 2004 ford crown victoria. It has the well known lighting control module failure. The headlights go off for no reason while driving down the road. Ford needs to be held accountable and replace these modules under a recall. This can cause an accident. But of course, just like ford doesn't think there is a problem with their gas tank design (exploding crown vics), they probably will not fix the headlight issue either.
Purchased 2004 cvpi directly from local police department.took car out that night, approximately 5 minutes into the drive, the headlights go out.all other lights remain on including all interior and exterior lights excluding headlamps.i manually turned the lights off then on and this did not solve the problem.it was still light enough i was able to return home, and upon using my turning signal, the headlights came back on unexplainable.all indicators lead to the lighting control module that is causing the defect.conditions are too hazardous with this defect and creates a high public safety with the potential for fatalities.
The headlights turn off when in use, intermittently.this happens even though the headlight switch is on.this is very dangerous.this problem developed at about 106,000 miles.it was temporarily corrected by having the relays in the ford lcm (lighting control module) replaced with a new headlight relay, nec part number "nec eq1-11111s".
The headlamps on this vehicle shut off after lights have been turned on for about 25 seconds and will not come back on, occasionally they will stay on and then will shut off while driving. I've had this problem looked at by several shops and have been told that the lcm module is faulty and that it needs to be replaced. This part is very expensive, and the fact that ford does not want to address this shows their lack of concern for public safety.this issue is a major safety issue and i can't believe that ford does not take responsibility for this problem as it appears to be widespread.

Catalytic converter fire(s) three occurred on this 2004 ford crown victoriathe first one occurred sept. 3,2005 and the 2nd fire occurred on april 24,2006, and the 3rd fire on may 1,2006. Park avenue ford in tenafly nj is the dealership that supposedly replaced the catalytic converter after the first fire. Car was brought back to them after each of the 3 fires. The floor pan became so hot that the floor mats and seat bottoms and floor insulation ignited and started burning. The dealership never even replaced the scorched floor insulation . Now the wires for all the electrical equipment such as headlights, roof mounted flashing lots, in car computer and siren is completely melted to the floor. Photographs taken by police and given to government insurance manager for this city's police force. Officers had to jump out of burning car each time the catalytic converter would glow cherry red and start floor mats/insulation charring and burning. When car was at the dealership secured after the 2nd fire, the lights and siren started on their own prompting the police in tenafly nj to respond and no one was able to shut them off by the normal switches. Fuses had to be yanked and battery cable taken off.
