FORD issued a recall on the CONTINENTAL and MARK VI models

VEHICLES MAY BE EQUIPPED WITH STOP LAMP SWITCHES THAT MAY HAVE BEEN CONTAMINATED WITH OIL. THIS CONDITION COULD CAUSE THE SWITCH TO BECOME INOPERATIVE RESULTING IN A LOSS OF THE STOP LAMP FUNCTION. VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH OPTIONAL SPEED CONTROL UTILIZE THE STOP LAMP SWITCH TO DISENGAGE THE SPEED CONTROL MECHANISM. A VEHICLE OPERATING WITH AN INOPERATIVE SOPT LAMP SWITCH AND SPEED CONTROL ENGAGED CAN BE STOPPED BY APPLYING ADDITIONAL BRAKE EFFORT OR BY DEPRESSING THE SPEED CONTROL "OFF" BUTTON.
