Consumer Description
TRAVELED TO FLORIDA FROM PENNSYLVANIA FOR VACATION. WINDOW ON PASSENGER SIDE DEVELOPED LINE OF SMALL BUBBLES VERTICALLY WHILE SITTING IN HOTEL PARKING LOT. WINDSHIELD THEN CRACKED IN MIDDLE IN A "Z" FORMATION. ITS A RATHER LARGE CRACK AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT FRONT WINDOW. I BELIEVE THE WINDOW IS DEFECTIVE LIKE THE FORD E SERIES WINDSHIELDS. I CONTACTED FORD BUT AS USUAL THEY WOULD NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY. THIS CAR HAS BEEN RECALLED TWICE ALREADY. *TR
