2015 FORD EDGE Visibilitywiper Problems

On 12/31/24 my rear windshield exploded. I had it replaced and on 2/28/25 the rear window has exploded AGAIN!

The panoramic sun roof has cracked suddenly due to stress. There was no damage or fracture due to an impact from a rock or other outside projectile. The glass roof has simply begun to fail due to stress. I am having this issue repaired next week, but I have taken pictures for documentation. I was able to find forums online where numerous people have complained about this issue with what appears to be years 2015-2017 Ford Edges.

At interstate highway speed and without warning, front panel of panoramic sunroof (Vista Roof) shattered, throwing shards of glass upward, rearward, and down into the sunshade. The closed cloth constructed sunshade was the only thing that prevented a barrage of glass fragments from injuring passengers in our vehicle, as the pieces remaining on the top of the sunshade were numerous. There was no warning for this, nor environmental cause that we could see. Incident happened on a rural stretch of highway, so other cars were not impacted. In a more densely traveled area and if the sunshade were open, this could have caused injury. Vehicle is being repaired by a dealer-group-affiliated body shop. Two of the manufacturer's dealerships were consulted and denied this being experienced before. They indicated this was not a repair covered by warranty or extended service contract and referred us to glass or body repair shops for...

(First incident) Went to replace wiper blades as they were chattering. Lifted driver side arm and wiper blade fell right off without any intervention. (Second incident) Installed Bosch Icon wiper blades as they were supposed to be the best on the market. My wife was driving home at the start of the blizzard 12/21/2022 in Iowa and once again, the driver’s side wiper blade fell off while in use. Extremely dangerous situation for her and everyone else she met on the highway.

The windshield shattered, no collision. Just simply shattered. Cooler than ambient temperatures outside, I was using the rear defrost before the damage accrued.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH in the rain with the windshield wipers set on high, the driver’s side wiper blade detached. The vehicle was taken to an auto parts store and the blades were replaced. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or independent mechanic for diagnosis. The failure recurred again with the driver’s side blade. Later the passenger’s side blade detached. The vehicle was taken an auto parts store and the Rain-X blades were replaced. The contact researched the failure online and became aware of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V250000 (Visibility). The vehicle was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to NHTSA to file a complaint. The approximate failure mileage was 55,000.

THE APIM MODULE WENT BAD AND THE SCREEN IS OUT IN THE TOUCHSCREEN IS UNRESPONSIVE TO TOUCH. I CAN'T ACCESS THE ANY OF THE CONTROLS AND FOR CLIMATE OR ENTERTAINMENT OR ANYTHING. I CAN'T EVEN TURN THE DEFROST ON TO TAKE THE KEEP THE WINDSHIELD FORM FOGGING UP. THE OTHER PROBLEM WAS THAT THE THE TAILGATE WILL NOT OPEN AND IT WON'T RELEASE.

2015 FORD EDGE PANORAMIC SUNROOF HAS CRACKED TWO TIMES SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME WAS IN 2017. OUT FORD DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT WARRANTY IT BECAUSE THEY SAID IT HAD TO HAVE COME FROM A ROCK CHIP. THIS TIME I JUST WENT THROUGH MY INSURANCE, BUT IT WAS THE SAME CRACKS, THAT JUST SUDDENLY APPEAR. I DIDN'T HEAR A ROCK HIT EITHER TIME. THE FIRST REPLACEMENT SUNROOF ALSO GOT REALLY SLOW WHEN CLOSING AND STOPPED SEALING ALL THE WAY. I HAVE SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND A LOT OF OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME HAPPENED IN 2016 AND THEN AGAIN IN 2019.

LIFT GATE WINDOW RANDOMLY SHATTERED AT BASE WITH NO KNOWN TRAUMA TO WINDOW. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE OVERNIGHT WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2015 EDGE ARE EXTREMELY WEAK ON LOW BEAM. THERE IS NO PERIPHERAL LIGHTING AT ALL. I CANNOT DRIVE AT NIGHT SAFELY WITHOUT HAVING MY HIGH BEAMS ON. THIS IS SCARY AND DANGEROUS.

SOMETIME OVER THE NIGHT THE REAR GLASS SHATTERED AND MY WIFE'S 2015 FORD EDGE SPORT. NO ONE WAS IN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME AND THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE WAS 50 IN OUR GARAGE. SHE NOTICED BROKEN GLASS ON THE GROUND BEFORE LEAVING FOR WORK. THE REAR DEFROST WAS NOT BEING USED AND THE VEHICLE WAS JUST SITTING IN OUR GARAGE. I TOOK QUITE A FEW PHOTOS AND I BEGAN LOOKING INTO OTHER ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE TO FIND THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM. I'M GLAD SHE WAS NOT DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD OR ON THE HIGHWAY AT THE TIME IT BROKE. GLASS HAS CONTINUED TO FALL INTO THE BACK EVERY TIME YOU OPEN OR CLOSE THE DOOR. I'LL FIRST CONTACT FORD TO SEE IF THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS COVERED BEFORE LOOKING INTO SAFELITE AUTO GLASS REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE DRIVEN BEFORE THIS IS FIXED.

WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED. I PULLED OVER TO CHECK THE DAMAGE AND CONCLUDED NOTHING HIT THE WINDOW TO CAUSE THIS DAMAGE. WHILE INVESTIGATING (ONLINE REPORTS AND SPEAKING WITH REPAIR SPECIALISTS) THE CAUSE OF THIS DAMAGE MAY BE RELATED TO THE HEATING STRIPS (FOR DEFROSTING) IN THE WINDOW.

MY WIFE WAS INSIDE AT WORK AND THE 2015 EDGE WAS JUST SITTING IN THE PARKING LOT. SHE GOT IN AFTER WORK AND STARTED THE CAR AND BOOM THE BACK WINDOW JUST SHATTERS. NOT REMOTE STARTED OR ANYTHING. IT WAS ABOUT 27DEGREES F OUTSIDE. THE WINDOW LITERALLY BROKE AT ALL 4 CORNERS. I HAVE READ THERE IS A RECALL IN CANADA FOR THIS ISSUE BUT NOT ONE HERE IN THE UNITED STATES. THIS IS A WONDERFUL WAY TO START XMAS IS WITH A $600 REPAIR BILL SINCE FORD SAYS IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

I HAVE A 2015 FORD EDGE AND AS I WAS DRIVING HOME LAST NIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY, I HEARD A LOUD POP. I LOOKED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR AND NOTICED MY REAR WINDOW SHATTERED. I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND NOTHING HIT MY CAR. I CAME OFF THE HIGHWAY AND PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT, INSPECTED THE REAR WINDOW AND IT HAD BEGAN TO FALL APART. I CONTACTED FORD AND THERE ARE NO OPEN RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. I DID A QUICK SEARCH ONLINE AND NOTICED THAT MANY FORD CUSTOMERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE.

MY CAR WAS PARKED IN A DRIVEWAY, NOT RUNNING AND I HEARD A HUGE LOUD NOISE. I WALKED OVER TO MY VEHICLE AND THE REAR WINDSHIELD HAD COMPLETELY BLEW OUT AND SHATTERED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS SEATED INSIDE THE VEHICLE, THE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED WITHOUT WARNING OR AN IMPACT OCCURRING. THERE WERE NO INJURIES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING, THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED WITHOUT WARNING OR AN IMPACT OCCURRING.

WAVY SPIDER LIKE CRACKS ON THE BACK PANEL OF PANORAMIC SUNROOF GLASS WITH NO INDICATION THAT SOMETHING FELL ON IT. I CANNOT BE SURE EXACTLY WHEN THE CRACKS HAPPENED. I LEAVE THE SHADE CLOSED MOST OF THE TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE REAR WINDSHIELD EXPLODED WITHOUT WARNING. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CONTACT CALLED HER INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEY WERE TO SEND SOMEONE TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. NAPLETON FORD LIBERTYVILLE (LOCATED AT 1010 N MILWAUKEE AVE, LIBERTYVILLE, IL 60048, 877-816-4872) WAS CONTACTED, BUT HAD NOT CALLED THE CONTACT BACK. THE CONTACT REACHED OUT TO THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS PROVIDED CASE NUMBERS: CAS24629948 AND CAS24629949. THE MANUFACTURER REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000. *LN*JB

MY SUN/PANORAMIC ROOF IS SPIDER CRACKED ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE FIRST PANEL (THAT SITS OVER THE DRIVER) FROM EXCESS HEAT. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN PARKED UNDER TREES, OVERPASSES, OR ANYWHERE THAT ROCKS OR OBJECTS COULD FALL ON TOP OF THE VEHICLE AND CRACK THE GLASS.

2015 FORD EDGE TITANIUM PANORAMIC SUNROOF. THE LAMINATED GLASS STARTED CRACKING ABOVE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHILE PARKED. OVER THE FOLLOWING 2 DAYS (APPROXIMATELY 150 MILES OF HIGHWAY DRIVING AT 45 -55 MPH), THE CRACK EXTENDED AND DIVIDED TO FORM A MASS OF WAVY CRACKS ACROSS THE WHOLE GLASS. ONLY THE EXTERIOR LAYER OF GLASS HAS CRACKED AT TBHS POINT BUT THE ROOF CREAKS AND FLEXES AND WILL POTENTIALY COMPLETELY FAIL AT SOME POINT. I DARE NOT OPEN THE ROOF IN CASE IT FAILS COMPLETELY. THERE ARE NO INDICATIONS OF IMPACT AT ANY POINT ON THE ROOF ("BULLS EYES"), AND THE CRACKS LOOK TO BE CAUSED BY STRESS CAUSED BY THE WAY THE GLASS IS MOUNTED, OR HOW THE SUPPORTING STRUCTURE IS STRENGTHENED (OR NOT) AGAINST FLEXING

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THEN 2 YEARS OUR PANORAMIC SUNROOF HAS CRACKED COMPLETELY. NOT JUST A SINGLE CRACK BUT THE ENTIRE WINDOW HAS CRACKS. THE FIRST TIME THE FORD TECHNICIAN SAID HE COULD SEE WHERE A ROCK OR SOMETHING HIT THE WINDOW. WELL I HAVE NOT TAKEN THIS IN YET BUT I'M SURE IT WILL BE THE SAME EXCUSE. I AM NOT SURE WHEN IT CRACKED AS WE DON'T ALWAYS HAVE THE SUNROOF OPEN AND DON'T ALWAYS HAVE THE SHADE OPEN EITHER. SO HOW AND WHEN IT OCCURRED ARE NOT CLEAR. I KNOW THAT WE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE MADE US WANT TO CHECK TO SEE IF IT WAS OK EITHER. THE STRANGE THING IS THAT THE WINDSHIELD HAD A COUPLE OF SMALL LITTLE STAR SHAPE CRACKS THAT HAVE NEVER GOTTEN WORSE IN THE 4 YEARS WE HAVE OWNED THE CAR. BUT THE SUNROOF SEEMS TO...

MY CAR WAS SITTING IN GARAGE I DO NOT DRIVE VERY MUCH. I GOT IN AND LOOKED UP GETTING READY TO BACK UP AND NOTICED A WAVY CRACK. NOTHING HAS HIT IT BEEN IN GARAGE. NO MARKS OF ANYTHING HITTING IT. I HAVE READ ABOUT SEVERAL OTHERS HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN.

CAME OUT TO MY 2015 FORD EDGE SPORT WITH THE REAR GLASS OF THE PANORAMIC MOONROOF CRACKED FROM LEFT TO RIGHT SEEMS. CAR IS PARKED IN DRIVE WAY AND I HAVE A AWNING SO NOTHING FELL FROM THE SKY AND HIT IT. ALSO DIDN'T SEE ANY DAMAGE OR CHIPS FROM A HIT. RIGHT THEN I REMEMBER SEEING ALL THE COMPLAINTS OF THE OF THE EXPLODING MOON ROOFS THAT FORD IS FAILING TO SEE AS A SAFETY HAZARD. REPORTS AFTER REPORTS OF THE EXACT ISSUE. AFTER CALLING FORD SERVICE I WAS TOLD OVER THE PHONE THAT IT'S NOT COVERED. WOW, DIDN'T EVEN SEE THE VEHICLE. THIS WILL BE MY LAST FORD I EVER PURCHASE. NOTHING BUT ISSUES.

THE SUNROOF GLASS RANDOMLY AND INEXPLICABLY CRACKED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A SUN-DRENCHED PARKING LOT. I HEARD A LOUD "CRACK" WHICH RESULTED IN A SMALL CRACK THAT RAPIDLY PROGRESSED INTO A SPIDERWEB OF CRACKS OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS AND WHILE DRIVING HOME. SEE ATTACHED PICTURES. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF FOREIGN OBJECT IMPACT . MY UNDERSTANDING FROM INTERNET SEARCHES IS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE/SUNROOF.

DRIVING STRAIGHT THRU A CITY RESIDENTIAL STREET ABOUT 20MPH MY REAR WINDOW SHATTERED. THERE WASN'T ANY IMPACT JUST THE SOUND OF THE WINDOW BURSTING.

WAS FINISHED SHOPPING , THE CAR WAS PARKED ROR ABOUT TWO HOURS. WHEN I GOT IN I NOTICED A SMALL CRACK IN THE SUNROOF GLASS. I CHECKED THE OUTSIDE AND THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF ANY DAMAGE FROM AN IMPACT. IT HAS GROWN FROM THAT INITIAL CRACK. CHECKED ON LINE AND FOUND MANY OF THE SAME PROBLEMS AND FORD KEEPS SAYING ITS BECAUSE OF IMPACTS. I BEG TO DIFFER.

THE AUTO DIM REAR VIEW MIRROR STAYS ON DIM ALL OF THE TIME WHICH LIMITS THE DRIVERS VISIBILITY SUBSTANTIALLY. THE LIGHTING IS NEVER "HIGH VISIBILITY". I AM REPORTING THIS ISSUE TO YOU IN THE HOPES THAT YOU WILL REVIEW IT AND POSSIBLY PREVENT A SERIOUS TRAFFIC INCIDENT.

SITTING IN MY GARAGE, THE CAR WAS RUNNING AND WARMING UP. REAR DEFROSTER WAS ON AS WAS HEAT IN CAR. OAT WAS 35 DEG F. REAR WINDOW EXPLODED ALONG BOTTOM EDGE WITH NO OUTSIDE INFLUENCE. MANY OTHER EDGE OWNERS HAVE REPORTED SIMILAR INCIDENTS OF THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERING ON ITS OWN. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND ISSUE A RECALL. THANK GOD IT DIDN'T HAPPEN 1000 MIKES FROM HOME ON A LONELY INTERSTATE AT NIGHT!

REAR WINDOW SHATTERED ON OWN WHEN CAR WAS PARKED. COPS CAME AND NO EVIDENCE OF FOUL PLAY. WAS PARKED ON SIDE OF STREET FOR 15 MINS WHEN OCCURRED AND IN 30 DEGREE WEATHER

FRONT PORTION OF SUNROOF HAS RANDOM WAVY CRACKS THROUGHOUT THE GLASS. NORMAL DRIVING KEPT IN GARAGE AND ONLY HAS 32K MILES ON VEHICLE.

VEHICLE IS A 2015 EDGE, PURCHASED NEW AS A LEFTOVER IN FEB OF 2017. JAN/FEB OF 2018 WITH APPROXIMATELY 15,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE, THE FRONT PANORAMIC SUNROOF GLASS CRACKED SPONTANEOUSLY, FOLLOWED SHORTLY AFTER BY THE REAR GLASS PANEL ON ANOTHER DAY. CRACKS WERE WAVY AND DID NOT APPEAR TO BE CAUSED BY AN IMPACT. FORD DEALER WOULD NOT WARRANTY BECAUSE THEIR "PEN TEST" OF DRAGGING A PEN ALONG THE LINE OF THE CRACK FOUND A PINHEAD "IMPACT" MARK. HAD TO REPLACE BOTH PANELS THRU INSURANCE COMPANY VIA A SPECIALTY THIRD PARTY CAPABLE OF REPLACING THE URETHANE ON THE REAR PANEL. UNKNOWN IF THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING OR STATIONARY OR WHEN/WHERE EXACTLY THE CRACKING OCCURRED.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE IN LIGHT RAIN, BUT TRUCKS THROWING WATER ONTO WINDSHIELD, THE DRIVERS SIDE WIPER SKIPPED AND STALLED. IT WAS EXTREMELY HARD TO SEE AND VERY DANGEROUS. AFTER ABOUT 5-7 SECONDS, IT MOVED AND WIPED WINDSHIELD AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 DIFFERENT TIMES. DEALER HAS REPROGRAMMED, BUT THAT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

THE PANORAMIC SUNROOF DEVELOPED SPIDERWEB STYLE CRACKING FOR NO REASON. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR A WEEK AGO. THE CAR WAS NOT EVEN BEING DRIVEN WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

NOTED TODAY THAT THE REAR SECTION OF THE VISTA GLASS ROOF IS CRACKED ON OUR 2015 FORD EDGE.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE, HEARD A VERY LOUD "POP"; THE ENTIRE REAR WINDSHIELD SPONTANEOUSLY BROKE. NOTHING HIT OR FELL ONTO MY CAR, THE BACK WINDSHIELD LITERALLY JUST POPPED AND SHATTERED INTO PIECES. I PULLED OVER AND GOT OUT TO LOOK AT IT, WHEN I CLOSED MY DOOR, THE WINDSHIELD STARTED CRUMBLING INTO THE CAR. IT LOOK LIKE THE OUTER EDGES OF THE WINDSHIELD SNAPPED OR COMPRESSED FIRST AND THEN THE CENTER OF IT WENT. IT WAS A VERY SCARY SITUATION WHILE DRIVING; THANK GOD MY CHILDREN WERE NOT IN THE BACK AT THE TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 48 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIBRATE AND A LOUD THUMPING SOUND WAS HEARD WITHIN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER (SHEEHY FORD LINCOLN OF RICHMOND, 10601 MIDLOTHIAN TURNPIKE, RICHMOND, VA 23235), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND SUGGESTED A FEW DIFFERENT OPTIONS TO TRY ON THE VEHICLE TO SEE IF ANY WOULD REMEDY THE FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT NONE OF THE OPTIONS WERE HELPFUL IN REPAIRING THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY DID NOT KNOW HOW TO REPAIR THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHEILD WIPERS CONTINUED TO GET STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD AND WERE STUCK TOGETHER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,795.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN THE MIDDLE OF AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PARKING LOT. WHEN I GOT THERE IN THE MORNING, NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY BACK WINDSHIELD. NO CRACKS. NO CHIPS. WHEN I WALKED OUT IN THE AFTERNOON, MY BACK WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED FROM TOP TO BOTTOM AND FROM THE LEFT SIDE TO THE RIGHT SIDE. ALL ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD HAD LITTLE PIECES THAT HAD ALREADY FALLEN OUT. WHEN I SHUT MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR THE PRESSURE POPPED MY WINDSHIELD OUT. THEN, WHEN I SHUT THE LEFT BACK DOOR THE WINDSHIELD SHATTERED. GLASS WAS IN MY TRUNK AND ON THE CEMENT. I BELIEVE THIS WAS DUE TO FAULTY GLASS.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WE HEAR A LOUD 'POP' WHICH SOUNDED LIKE A BALLOON POPPING THEN A CRACKLING NOISE. I LOOKED BACK AND THE ENTIRE REAR WINDOW ON THE HATCH OF OUR EDGE HAD SHATTERED. LUCKILY IT STAYED IN TACT UNTIL WE RETURNED HOME AND WHEN I SHUT A DOOR IT STARTED TO BREAK ALL OF THE WAY OPEN. WE WERE NOT TRAVELING BY ANY OTHER VEHICLE AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED.

THE GLASS PANEL ON THE PANORAMIC SUNROOF CRACKED FOR NO OBVIOUS REASON. SELLING DEALER WAS CONTACTED. THE SERVICE MANAGER LOOKED AT THE GLASS AND STATED THAT "IT WAS CAUSED BY IMPACT CALL YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY". THERE WAS NO IMPACT. IT SEEMS THE GLASS PANEL IS UNDER A PRESSURE/STRESS LOAD. THE GLASS JUST CRACKED.

MY REAR WINDSHIELD SHATTERED FOR NO REASON. I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT AND HEARD A LOUD POP. NOTHING HAD HIT MY CAR, NO ONE WAS AROUND, NOTHING FELL FROM THE SKY OR OFF OF A BUILDING. MY REAR WINDSHIELD BASICALLY JUST EXPLODED AND CRACKED FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER, ACROSS THE BOTTOM AND THEN BUCKLED AND CRACKED UP THE CENTER. SHARDS OF GLASS WERE FALLING INTO THE CAR AND ALSO POURING OUT THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDOW. GLASS HAS NOW FALLEN INTO THE REAR GATE.

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND OCCUPIED BY MYSELF AND THREE CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT. THE WINDOW IMPLODED WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WAS CLOSED AS MY HUSBAND ENTERED THE SUV. MY SON IN THE BACK SEAT RECEIVED A SMALL CUT OVER HIS LEFT EYE, ANOTHER CHILD WAS HIT BY THE GLASS BUT UNINJURED.

REAR PANEL ON PANORAMIC SUNROOF CRACKED. DEALER CLAIMS WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER GLASS. 5200 MILES ON CAR. LESS THAN A YEAR OLD. NOT SURE WHEN IT HAPPENED. OPENED SHADE YESTERDAY AND NOTICED IT FOR FIRST TIME. NO OBVIOUS ROCK CHIP.
