I have a 2001 and both fog lights are cracked. I talked to my dealer and they will not warrant the lights because they can't determine if it was rocks that caused the cracking, or heat stress. I am almost positive it was heat stress, and I'll try to post some pictures. I was wondering if anyone else had pictures of their cracked fog lights, so I had something to compare to.

I found this picture in the gallery...

Mine look a lot worse than this one.

Thanks,

Damn that dealer sucks, try another. It took my dealer about 5 mins to get me all new lights.

 

I bought my 02 in june and my passenger side fog light was cracked the next day. Now my driver side is cracked. Thats a shame they dont last any longer than that. My last dodge sport had cyrstal clear fogs and they were fine after 50000 miles. Ford must have a crapy supplier.

So will most dealers warranty the crappy fog lights?

 

both mine were heat cracked.
i called svt and told them the problem
was told the service manager makes the calls on lights.
go to another dealer,till you find the right one.
i told my dealer,perhaps i should find another sealer,when
i buy new truck.
they ordered lights then
don't give up,give hell

 

So far the pair on my current truck are okay, but the 99 "L" I had went through several fog lights. None were rock damaged in my opinion, although I finally opted to install lens covers. Once I did that, the dealer was forced to admit all failures were defects, not road debris.

 

I'm on my third complete replacement pair since Feb......
All warranty ...

 

38,000 on my '99, and no problems - just replacement bulbs. I use my foglights quite a bit - dreary days, dawn, dusk, and always at night.

 

Im sure glad foglights are covered by warrenty

 

I checked mine before I left the dealer the night I bought my truck. Sad to say, when I got home, I look, and see a nice big spider web in BOTH my foglights. Sucks.

Is the an aftermarket replacement for these lights?

 

Well, I took your advice SpankDog, and went to another dealer. They snapped a couple pics with a digital camera, e-mailed them to ford, and within thirty minutes I had two brand new fog lights

 

They know it is a shi--y situation,all I said is that the lights kept blowing from water getting in there...............new lenses

 

*knock on wood*

2 yrs, 37000mi, no cracks.

A buddy of mines suggested drilling a small sized hole in the back of the foglights..He told me that would help let a lot of heat from inside the housing and air in...That kinda makes sense but then again it doesn't..If water gets inside, BOOOOM!!!

 

Well I believe that they already have a vent in the top if I'm correct.
