Question Sequentail Tail lights

Are all of the 2010's suppossed to have the sequential tail lights. Mine has the sequential turn signals but not the tail lights. Sorry guys, I'm a gal who loves stangs and I don't know everything about them.

Hm.. I believe the sequential part has to do with the wiring kit, not the tail light assembly. I could be wrong, but post a picture up so that I can see what you're saying.

They are only sequential for your turn signals. When you BRAKE they all light up.

The 2010's don't come with the sequential brake lights, only the turn signals. If thats what your trying to say.

Tail lights and turning signals are the same? When you brake, they light up. When you put on turning signals, they go sequential.

Am I missing something?

Sequential brake lights wouldn't make much sense and would be annoying in rush hour.

Oh, I thought the brake lights were suppossed to be sequential also, the aftermarket ones are sequential on the brake lights and turn signals.

I haven't had much luck with Ford products and thought I had another defective car. I'm just being paranoid I guess.

No, the kits are not sequential on brake lights, only for when you click on the turn signal. The whole point is to indicate where you are turning towards. Sequential brakes would be confusing to drivers and make no sense at all. I think you have misunderstood how they are supposed to work.

My Web Electric kit is sequential on both the brakelights and turn signals. The brake lights are what really catches the attention. They run through one sequential and then stay solid until the brake is released and reapplied. Is the 2010 not the same?
