WE HAVE 9 OF THESE INTERCEPTOR SEDANS WITH THE FORD READY FOR THE ROAD PACKAGE AND 5 OF THEM NOW HAVE ISSUES WITH THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE MARKER/TURN SIGNAL, THEY WILL FLASH RANDOMLY, I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE A VEHICLE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME THINKING I WAS TURNING RIGHT DUE TO THE LIGHT FLASHING, WHEN IT IS DOING THIS WE HAVE NO INDICATION IT IS GOING ON WHILE WE ARE DRIVING. I HAVE A VIDEO OF WHAT IT IS DOING AND CAN SEND IT IF NEEDED, ALL OF OUR OFFICERS FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO OTHER DRIVERS THINKING YOUR GOING TO TURN WHEN YOU ARE NOT.
