Disclaimer: I LOVE my S197.

However, I noticed something about my car last night. My new custom license plate looked kinda dark. Hmmm there is no light emitting from the spot where it should be illuminating the plate.

Oh well must be a bad bulb.

NOPE... took the cover off. No bulb in there! Once again... some of the parts I paid for are sitting on a workbench in MI. I'm suprised I haven't seen a thread about this yet. Am I the only one?

Whatever could have happened to the rubber on your rear tires? It's still under warranty, I'd take it back to the dealer.

acadian,

I've noticed that MY rear tires seem to be missing a bit of rubber too! Do you think we could get the tires replaced? Maybe if enough of us complained, Ford would issue a "Excessive rear tire wear rate" TSB so we could all get them replaced under warrantee....
