My License Plate Lights fall down in front of the license plate. I have had them fixed 5 times by the dealer during the time I have owned the car- which is almost 3 years. My warranty will be expiring 13 August 2025. I have been told by the dealership if this happens after my warranty is up, I will be responsible for the cost of repair plus labor. I do not feel this is fair. The lights falling out are not due to any neglect on my part. I contacted FORD & they suggested I contact you so that possibly this could be checked into for a safety recall. The dates of the repairs are: 21 Jan 2023 driver side 06 July 2023 both 29 Sep 2023 both 10 Aug 2024 both 10 July 2025 driver side
