Are you touching the glass of the bulb with your hands? That will cause halogen bulbs to explode sometimes. The oil from your hands causes the glass to cool at different rates in different spots and the temperature difference can cause them to explode.

Wear gloves.

Christian, couple of things. 1st as the other poster stated be sure your using gloves if its a halogen light. Their highly susceptible to any moisture or grease on bulb. And if your using aftermarket bulbs, go to the Ford dealership and spring for Ford bulbs. I bought Sylvania LL bulbs for my 3 rd brake light. They crapped out in less than 30 days. I went to Ford bought 2 #904 bulbs, and I'm going on 1 year, and I slam my rear hatch repeatedly. I'd also check out your light plugs/grounds, you may have an issue there.
