NHTSA Complaint #10643228 — 2011 FORD F-150

DRIVING TO WORK ON A CRISP FALL MORNING IN OCTOBER 2014, I PUT THE REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER ON. ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER, I HEARD A LOUD POP THAT SOUNDED LIKE ONE OF MY WINDOWS HAD BEEN SHOT OUT. I STOPPED TO INVESTIGATE AND DISCOVERED THAT MY RIGHT REAR WINDOW HAD SHATTERED (SPIDER-LIKE CRACKS THROUGHOUT THOUGH STILL INTACT). I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS HAS OCCURRED ON SCORES OF FORD F-150S. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY DRIVING 35 AS ANY FASTER AND I MIGHT HAVE LOST CONTROL DUE TO THE FRIGHT. WHEN IS NHTSA GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS? OR DO ABOUT A DOZEN PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE FIRST BEFORE ANY ACTION IS TAKEN? *TR
