The blower motor on my grand marquis ls became inoperative. After troubleshooting the problem, my service provider determined that the blower motor speed controller was the source of the problem. They proceeded to order a new one, and were informed that this item was on nationwide backoreder and they had no idea when a new one could be obtained. This tells me that there must be a significant number of grand marquis autos with the same problem. It is a safety concern because there would be fogging of the windows during inclement weather and no means to clear them. If this module has an excessive failure rate, the item should be place on a recall list.

The wiper control module failed in a blizzard, an extremely dangerous situation. What bothers me the most is that this wiper control module was the subject of a recall. I complied with the recall and had the module replaced. But it's obvious to me that ford either did not replace the part or just put another defective part into my car. What good is a recall if the replacement part is also defective? The specific recall was 00s09 may 2000 recall - wiper control module replacement my situation was exactly as described in the recall. The wipers failed without warning in heavy snow (thus heavy load on the wipers). Again, a very dangerous situation.
