2015 FORD F-150 Visibilitywiper Problems

The rear window just completely shattered on it's own. The glass pieces were still mostly connected to each other, but the entire glass panel was cracked into small pieces. The vehicle luckily was parked at the time. But, when my daughter got in the car, she touched the glass with her finger thinking it was ice, and cause a section to completely fall apart, with some glass getting on her (one of the pictures shows this hole). It was the coldest day we had in NJ in a number of years. The front of the truck was facing south and it was cold, but sunny (high temperature that day was 19F, low temp was close to 0F). Around 3:45pm, I needed to drive my daughter somewhere, so I remote started the truck, which I'm not sure if it puts the rear defroster on. It's not known if it cracked before...

Started driving, about 2 minutes in, I noticed an electrical burn smell, and turned to look in the backseat, and it was filling with smoke, and my two young kids started coughing. I rolled all windows down and pulled over as quick as possible, unloaded both kids from rear driver side door. Saw smoke billowing out from behind the car seat on the passenger rear side, so I circled around to that door and went to inspect, right before removing the car seat I heard a loud pop and took off running just to be safe. After about 5 minutes I returned to the truck to notice the entire back windshield was shattered, chunks of glass inside and outside of the truck.

I turned on the rear defroster to my truck. It was by mistake As I ment to push the MAX AC button. I didn't immediately turn it off. Instantly after turning it on I smelt a strong electrical/burnt small. About 30 seconds later we heard a loud POP. When I looked in the rear view mirror, I saw the back window had shattered. It was very hot to the touch.

I have a 2015 ford f150. It is equipped like many others with a power sliding rear glass. The issue is the upper track for the sliding portion becomes unattached from the rear glass and falls forward. I've had this happen 2 times in the last 2 years. Specifically in the summer. The track is originally installed cheaply with 2 sided tape and a little adhesive. The local glass shop wants 85 dollars just to glue it back. I have seen multiple trucks with the same issue with the window taped up or just covered with cardboard. My concern, is if someone has an infant in the center of the rear seat with a rear facing car seat, the slide portion of the glass could come out and fall on the baby. Not to mention, it gets a little pricey to repair it every few years. The only solution from...

The sliding rear window assembly which is attached with 4 adhesive tape strips have come loose. The sliding window comes out of the frame and could become airborne if hit from the rear or in a front end collision. It is a very poor way to attach a sliding rear window and the failure rate is high. The bad part of this is most people are probably not aware of the problem other than the window frame will rattle sometimes when your on a bumpy road. It is a poor design and could be dangerous in any collision. The body and glass repair shops are aware of the problem on the rear windows of Ford pickups. This should be fixed with a recall before someone dies from the window becoming airborne in a crash

While I'm driving the windshield wipers comes on by itself at times when it is turned off

Without any warning signals or indications the fan blower has stopped working. It became a real safety hazard when I needed to defog my windshield and there was no air flow coming out of my vents. No warning, no signal. My windshield had fogged over and I had zero ability to defog due to not having any available airflow. Major safety issue!!

Due to an occurrence of other vehicles back windows blowing out dealer unplugged part of rear window defroster. Now several years later the defroster across entire back window does not work. Since I am now out of waranty and extended waranty this repair would come out of my pocket. Dealer should have replaced faulty electronics in rear defroster/window at some point, not just unplugged it.

Shortly after turning on the rear window defroster the vehicle interior began to fill with a strong electrical burning odor and then within about 30 seconds the back glass shattered with a loud pop that was very startling and distracting. I took photos but plan to have the window replaced as soon as possible since I need it to get to work. This happened while driving at a slow speed but if it had happened at high speed then it could have caused me to swerve and lead to an accident. I called the Ford dealer and they were not aware of this being a problem. However, the retail glass repair shop said that they frequently see this issue with F-150s. The vehicle has not been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. Aside from the electrical burning smell there were no indications the impending glass shattering. I did...

Rear window defroster was emitting a burning smell (although it was not turned on) and overheated the rear glass causing it to bulge and shatter!

The contact owns a 2015 Ford F-150. The contact stated that on several occasions, the gear shifter was placed in reverse however, the backup camera failed to operate. The contact stated that the backup camera was displayed, while in drive on other occasions. No warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure and the contact was informed that there were no recalls on the VIN. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.

The windshield spraying system freezes when temperatures drop below freezing. This is an extremely dangerous and hazardous situation. Even when using -35 degree windshield washer fluid (well below recommendation) my windshield has been frozen over and covered in grime. The frozen system does not allow for the windshield to be sprayed and cleared. The vehicle is undriveable in this condition. This is a known problem with a technical bulletin issued. Ford’s resolution is that the customer pays for this remediation. This is unsatisfactory as it is a clear design and safety flaw.

While driving on the freeway with defroster on in rainy weather conditions, the rear window spontaneously shattered and made a very loud popping sound as though it exploded. There was no impact that caused the spontaneous shattering. Three children under the age of 9 were seated in the back in car seats / booster seats. The windows behind them broke. They were in danger of the entire window falling through until we could safely exit the freeway and pull over. Upon parking, The window fell through and tiny pieces glass fell into the the truck bed and onto the back seats. No one was injured, though the children in the back were distressed by the incident. The entire back window was completely shattered and the edges of the window were cracked in a jagged pattern. And insurance claim was filed. No police report or other inspections have been completed by...

DRIVING DOWN THE STREET, WITHOUT THE REAR DEFROST ON, AND HEARD A LARGE BOOM, WHICH I DISCOVERED THE NEXT MORNING WAS THE REAR WINDOW BLOWING OUT ON MY TRUCK. LOOKS LIKE THIS IS A COMMON SITUATION WITH THESE TYPES OF VEHICLES AND FORD IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEM. THERE IS A MASSIVE BLOG, WITH DOZENS OF ACCOUNTS OF SIMILAR EXPERIENCES. VEHICLE WAS GOING ABPROX 5 MPH AS I WAS JUST LEAVING FROM A STOP LIGHT. I WAS ON A CITY STREET IN RENO, NV. THIS HAPPENED ON 1/27/21 ABOUT 5:30PM. I CONTACT NV ENERGY TO SEE IF A TRANSFORMER HAD BLOWN, CHECKED VEHICLE FOR IMPACT FORM AN OBJECT, AND NO EVIDENCE OF EITHER. GLASS NOW IN THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUES TO FALL APART. JUST LUCKY I DIDN'T HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE BACK SEAT!!

SINCE PURCHASED, THE WINDSHIELD WASHERS FREEZE MAKING FOR UNSAFE DRIVING EVERY WINTER ANYTIME THE TEMP GETS BELOW 32. THIS CREATES AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITION. UNACCEPTABLE WHEN YOU HAVE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND KEEP THROWING SNOW ON THE WINDSHIELD TO CLEAR.

REAR GLASS SHATTERED WHILE TRUCK SAT IDLE WARMING UP. BURNING ELECTRICAL SMELL AND SMOKE PRIOR TO GLASS SHATTERING. GLASS DEFROSTER WAS ON AT THE TIME, SMOKE DISSIPATED AFTER DEFROSTER WAS TURNED OFF.

I WOKE UP AND REMOTE STARTED MY TRUCK BEFORE LEAVING FOR WORK ON A 40 DEGREE FAHRENHEIT DAY. I WAS 2 MINUTES INTO MY DRIVE AND THEN ALL I HEARD WAS A HUGE BANG, I SERIOUSLY THOUGHT SOMEONE HAD JUST SHOT A GUN. I LOOKED BACK AND MY REAR WINDOW WAS JUST COMPLETELY SHATTERED FOR NO REASON. THIS MAKES ME VERY UPSET BECAUSE I HAD JUST GOTTEN THE TRUCK BACK FROM GETTING A NEW WINDSHIELD THAT CRACKED FOR NO REASON 2 DAYS AGO, THANKS.

TRUCK WAS WARMING UP AND SOMETHING SMELLED LIKE AN ELECTRICAL FIRE AND SUDDENLY THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED. CONTACTS FOR THE REAR DEFROSTER PULLED FROM WINDOW CAUSING ELECTRICAL ARCING THAT STARTED MELTING A PIECE OF PLASTIC CAUSING A HOT SPOT ON THE WINDOW THAT LED TO IT SHATTERING. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHILE THIS HAPPENED.

AFTER TURNING OFF THE WIPERS, THEY CONTINUE TO RUN INTERMITTENTLY. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SOME TIME.

EVERY TIME I USE MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS THEY WANT TURN OFF EVEN WHEN THEY ARE OFF. THEY KEEP GOING EVEN AFTER YOU TURN THE WIPERS SWITCH TO 0 (OFF) ITS DOES THIS WHEN THE VEHICLE MOVING OR STATIONARY..

LEFT FOR WORK, 44 DEGREES. TURNED REAR DEFROSTER ON, FOUR MILES DOWN ROAD HEARD A LOUD BANG OR POP SOUND. BACK WINDSHIELD HAD BASICALLY EXPLODED. DRIVING 50MPH. HAS A SLIDING GLASS WAS NOT BROKEN, BUT ENTIRE BACK WINDOW BURST

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AFTER DROPPING MY DAUGHTER OFF AND OUT OF NOWHERE I HEARD A VERY LOUD POP SOUND. I LOOKED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR AND THE ENTIRE BACK WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. I WAS ON A MAIN ROAD. SMOOTH. GOING APPROX 40-50MPH. NO CARS WERE BEHIND ME. I PULLED OVER TO SEE IF IT WAS STRUCK BY A ROCK OR FALLING OBJECT... NO CLEAR IMPACT. IT WAS EVENLY SHATTERED ACROSS THE ENTIRE WINDOW. IT WAS ABOUT 65 DEGREES F. DEFROST WAS NOT ON AT THE TIME. SMELLED SIMILAR TO THAT BURNING SMELL AFTER AN AIRBAG DEPLOYS. I DROVE STRAIGHT TO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF THAT HAPPENING BEFORE "WOLTZ & WIND FORD, INC" IN PITTSBURGH. THANK GOD THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN WITH MY NEWBORN AND 2 YEAR OLD IN THE BACK. I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND THE NUMBER FOR SIMILAR STORIES ONLINE. FORD SHOULD...

THE WIPER STOP WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF WINDSHIELD WHILE IT WAS RAINING. I WAS DRIVING IN CITY. *TR

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, WIPERS WOULD NOT CHANGE SPEED FROM SLOWEST TO ANYTHING ELSE. HAVE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH WIPERS TURNING THEMSELVES ON AND STAYING ON EVEN WHEN IN THE OFF POSITION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TOP RAIL ON THE REAR SLIDING GLASS RATTLED AND VIBRATED UNCONTROLLABLY WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE TOP RAIL OF THE VEHICLE WAS HELD TOGETHER BY DOUBLE SIDED TAPE. THE CONTACT SPOKE TO TWO RIVERS FORD INC LOCATED AT (76 BELINDA PKWY, MT. JULIET, TN 37122) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE DEALER WAS UNAWARE OF THE DEFECT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 61,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE IN COLDER WEATHER BELOW 25 DEGREES THE WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID WOULD NOT PROPERLY SPRAY ONTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD CAUSING A VISIBILITY HAZARD TO THE DRIVER. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER INVER GROVE FORD/LINCOLN (4725 S. ROBERT TRL, INVER GROVE HEIGHTS, MN) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED THAT A TSB WAS ISSUED FOR THE PROBLEM WHICH INCLUDED THE REPLACEMENT OF A FAULTY HOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

WINDSHIELD WIPER CONTINUE TO OPERATE IN LOW INTERMITTENT WHEN THE SWITCH IS IN THE OFF POSITION - THE DRIVER CANNOT TURN OFF THE WIPERS. ANY TIME THE TRUCK'S ENGINE IS ON, THE WIPERS RUN. FORD MOTOR COMPANY PUBLISHED ONLINE TSB 15-0061 ON APRIL 27, 2015, WHICH ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM FOR MODEL YEARS 2011-2014 FOR EXPLORERS, F150'S, EDGES, MKX'S AND F-SUPER DUTY VEHICLES. THE BULLETIN CALL FOR THE INSTALLATION OF A "NEW WIPER/MALFUNCTION SWITCH, WHICH AT MY DEALER COSTS $900. OBVIOUSLY, A VEHICLE CANNOT BE SAFELY OPERATED WITH THE WIPER RUNNING IN DRY WEATHER. EVENTUALLY, THE WIPER BLADES WOULD MELT AND STREAK THE WINDSHIELD, THUS BLURRING THE DRIVER'S VISION. REPAIRING THE PROBLEM IS NOT IS NOT OPTIONAL, IT MUS BE DONE. FORD KNEW IT HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE EQUIPMENT IN MODEL YEARS 2011-2014. I HAVE A 2015 AND THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. NOT ONLY HAVE THEY NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM INN...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. WHILE EXITING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE REAR SLIDING WINDOW GLASS WAS LOOSE AND OFF TRACK. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MURRAY FORD KINGSLAND (2030 GA-40, KINGSLAND, GA 31548) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT NO REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.

THE WIPERS QUIT WORKING WHEN THE RIGHT BLINKER IS ON. WHEN THE RIGHT BLINKER IS ON TO SIGNAL A TURN, THE WIPERS QUIT WORKING COMPLETELY. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT MODE THE BLINKERS ARE IN (FAST, SLOW, INTERMITTENT) ONCE THE RIGHT BLINKER IS OFF, THE WIPERS WILL BEGIN TO WORK AGAIN. VEHICLE CAN BE STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. I BELIEVE THE MULTI-FUNCTION DEVICE IS DEFECTIVE.

WIPER FLUID TUBING CONSTRICTED IN COLD WEATHER, NO FLUID COMES OUT. USING -20F WIPER FLUID, NO PROBLEMS IN OTHER VEHICLES, IN F150 NOTHING COMES OUT BELOW 15F. ONCE ABOVE 25F, WORKS FINE. DID GET REPLACEMENT TUBING FROM DELAER, SAME PROBLEM.

MY F150 WAS STARTED AND THE MAX DEFROST WAS ON. WHILE STANDING NEXT TO THE VEHICLE, THE REAR GLASS WINDOW SHATTERED WITHOUT CAUSE. A BURNING SMELL WAS NOTICED, BUT I ASSUMED IT WAS COMING FROM SOMEWHERE OTHER THAN MY TRUCK. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND I WAS STANDING NEAR THE VEHICLE. IT IS NOT A POSSIBILITY THAT SOMETHING STRUCK THE REAR GLASS, IT IS AN APPARENT MALFUNCTION OR DEFECT. I CONTACTED FOR CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND WAS COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE SERVICE.

THE REMOTE START WAS ON FOR 5 MINUTES, WE GOT IN THE CAR AND THE ENTIRE BACK WINDSHIELD WAS SHATTERRING. THERE WAS NO PRIOR DAMAGE TO THE BACK WINDSHIELD, NO ISSUES EVER. WE LOOKED ON THE OUTSIDE AND IT WAS SHATTERING FROM THE EDGES AND SLOWLY STARTED CRACKING TO PIECES BEFORE OUR EYES. IF WE WOULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN ESPECIALLY WITH CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT.

ON 10/18/19 AT 7:20 AM I STARTED MY 2015 F150 WITH 27K MILES VIA THE AUTOSTART SYSTEM AS THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS AROUND 35F AND THERE WAS FRONT ON THE GLASS. MY TRUCK WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY, FACING NORTH TOWARDS THE STREET. WHEN I APPROACHED MY TRUCK AFTER IN N FOR UNDER 5 MINUTES I COULD SMELL A BURNING ODOR. I OPENED THE TRUCK AND THE SMELL WAS STRONGER. WHEN I LOOK AROUND I SAW THAT THE REAR WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED WITH A HOLE WHERE A SECTION FELL INTO THE BED. I CONTACTED MY FORD DEALER AND THE SERVICE TECH STATED HE NEVER HEARD OF THIS AND THEY COULD REPLACE IT FOR APPROX. $1400.00.

THE REAR SLIDING WINDOW BOND HAS LOST ITS ADHESIVE. WHILE DRIVING THE WINDOW STARTED TO BLOW IN CAUSING THE DEBRIS TO BLOW INTO MY CAB. FORD HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO REMEDY MY COMPLAINT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH ON THE FREEWAY, THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW SHATTERED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT MANAGED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. BLUEBONNET FORD LINCOLN (351 I-35BL, NEW BRAUNFELS, TX 78130, (888) 890-1586) WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 105,534.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS TURN ON RANDOMLY AND INTERMITTENTLY WHENEVER THE TRUCK IS ON EVEN THOUGH THE WIPER SWITCH IS IN THE OFF POSITION. EXACT CAUSE OF MALFUNCTION UNKNOWN. THIS ISSUE WAS SUBJECT TO A RECALL FOR EARLIER MODEL YEARS, HOWEVER NOT FOR 2015 MODEL YEAR. ISSUE CAUSES STARTLE OR DRIVER AND LOSS OF CLEAR VISION.

WIPERS TURN ON AND STAY ON WHILE DRIVING. ROAD CONDITIONS HAD NO EFFECT. THE COURTESY WIPER WAS TURNED OFF. EVEN THOUGH THE WIPER SWITCH WAS TURNED OFF THE WIPERS WOULD STILL COME ON AND STAY ON. I TOOK IT TO FORD AND THEY SAID THE WIPER SWITCH WAS BAD. CHARGED ME $300 TO MAKE THE REPAIR. FORD TECHNICIAN SAID THE SWITCH IN THE STEERING COLUMN WENT BAD. OF COARSE THIS HAPPENED AT 41,000 MILES AND FORD DECLINED TO WARRANTY IT.

STARTED MY TRUCK USING REMOTE START. ROUGHLY 45-55 SECS LATER, I GET IN MY TRUCK AND THE REAR PASSENGER AREA IS FILLED WITH SMOKE. I SHUT OFF VEHICLE. I SMELLED BURNED ELECTRICAL WIRES. I WASN'T ABLE TO DETECT ANYTHING OUT OF THE NORM. ROUGHLY 5-7 MINS LATER, MY BACK GLASS SHATTERED. TRUCK WAS STATIONARY.

TURNED DEFROST ON AND IN 2 TO 3 MINUTES HEARD A LOUD POP AND LOOKED BACK AND THE REAR WINDOWPANE HAD COMPLETELY SHATTERED. THE BREAK HAPPENED IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET. THE DEFROST MALFUNCTIONED AND OVERHEATED THE WINDOW CAUSING IT TO SHATTER.

ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN ELK GROVE ILLINOIS DURING RUSH HOURS. 45 MPH . OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS 27 DEGREES ABOVE ZERO. ROAD WAS WET WITH SALT FROM PREVIOUS SNOW FALL. WINDSHIELD WAS COLLECTING HEAVY SPRAY BACK FROM OTHER VEHICLES IN FRONT OF MY TRUCK. WHEN APPLYING WINDSHIELD WASHER THE WASHER FAILED TO SPRAY. RESULTING IN A VERY SMEARED AND HEAVY ROAD DIRT ON WINDSHIELD. IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS UNABLE TO PULL OVER AND CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD MANUALLY AT THAT MOMENT. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE THIS WINTER AND I FOUND THIS TO BE VERY THREATENING TO PROPERLY MAINTAIN SAFE DRIVING UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN BELOW FREEZING AND THERE IS -35 BELOW ZERO WASHER FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR I HAVE MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT A FORD DEALERSHIP WHICH THEY HAVE A BULLETIN REPAIR ON THIS. NO ACCIDENTS...

THE REAR WINDSHIELD SHATTERED DURING DEFROST MODE. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLING AWAY FROM A STOP SIGN WHEN THE GLASS SHATTERED. THERE WAS NO IMPACT, THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING UNDER 20 MILES PER HOUR, THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20 DEGREES, AND THE HEAT SETTING INSIDE WAS SET TO "MAX". THE REAR GLASS PANES ON EITHER SIDE OF THE SLIDING WINDOW SHATTERED SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH A SOUND THAT COULD BE DESCRIBED AS A "GUN SHOT". BROKEN GLASS FELL INTO THE CAB OF THE TRUCK AND ON TO THE SEATS AND FLOOR. NORMALLY MY CHILDREN ARE SEATED IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. ON THIS PARTICULAR MORNING, THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE WAS EMPTY. THE EVENT OCCURRED ABOUT 3 MILES FROM MY HOME, SO THE VEHICLE HAD ONLY BEEN RUNNING FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. I BELIEVE THAT THE SAFETY RISK IS A RESULT OF A MATERIALS DEFECT COMBINED WITH A HEATING SYSTEM FAILURE....

WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID NOT WORKING. FORD SAID TUBES FREEZE, I HAD TO PAY TO REPLACE BUT THE FLUID STILL DOES NOT COME OUT WHEN TEMPERATURES BELOW 20 DEGREES. I AM USING RAIN-X FLUID RATED TO -30 DEGREES, SAME FLUID WORKS IN OTHER VEHICLES. ONCE ENGINE IS WARM AND STOPPED FOR 20 MINUTES, FLUID WILL SOMETIMES WORK. I THINK THE PLASTIC TUBES FORD CHARGED ME FOR SHOULD BE REPLACED WITH METALLIC ONES THAT WILL NOT CONSTRICT/SHRINK.

WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID DISPENSER FREEZES EVEN WITH -30 DEGREE FLUID IN IT. IT BECOMES VERY DANGEROUS FOR VISIBILITY WHEN SNOW, SLUSH OR SOMETHING HIT THE WINDSHIELD. IT HAPPENS ANYTIME IN LOW TEMPS AND DOES NOT DEFOREST EVEN WHEN THE TRUCK HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.

BELOW ABOUT 25 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT, THE WINDSHIELD WASHER SYSTEM FREEZES UP AND IS UNUSABLE. THIS IS DESPITE HAVING FLUID CERTIFIED TO -45 DEGREES CENTIGRADE IN THE SYSTEM. THE FREEZE UP OCCURS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN OR IS PARKED. THE SYSTEM IS ALWAYS UNUSABLE BELOW 20 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. THIS HAS BEEN A PERSISTENT PROBLEM EVERY WINTER SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. I SUSPECT THIS IS A DEFECT THROUGHOUT THE MAKE/MODEL/YEAR.

WIPERS STUCK IN LOWEST INTERMITTENT POSITION. WILL NOT TURN OFF. WILL NOT RELIABLIY CHANGE SPEEDS.

WIPERS WOULD COME ON WHILE DRIVING OR SITTING STATIONARY BY THEM SELF WOULD NOT SHUT OF WITH WIPER CONTROL SWITH. I CALLED THEM 'GHOST WIPERS' ONLY HAD 22,000 MILES ON TRUCK HAD TO BUY WIPER/TURNSIGNAL SWITCH.

ELECTRICAL POWER CONNECTOR FOR REAR SLIDING WINDOW DEFROSTER BROKE AT ITS ATTACHMENT (FACTORY SOLDERED) POINT TO THE REAR SLIDING WIDOW GLASS. THIS LEAVES THE DEFOGGER INOPERABLE AND ELIMINATES REAR VISIBILITY DUE TO FOG/FROST/ICE BUILD-UP. VEHICLE IS JUST OUT OF ITS 3 YEAR WARRANTY AND HAS LESS THAN 28,000 MILES. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE. FORD MOTOR COMPANY SERVICE IS UNWILLING TO RECOGNIZE/CORRECT THE FACTORY DEFECT AND CLAIMED TO HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF SIMILAR ISSUES FOR THE 2015 MODEL. THIS DEFECT IS APPARENTLY SIMILAR TO THAT WHICH FORD HAS RECOGNIZED FOR SIMILAR 2013 MODELS, ISSUING A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (FORD TSB ASI-32259)

WIPERS WILL NOT SHUT OFF. EVEN IF YOU SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF, THEY STILL COME ON WHEN IT'S STARTED AGAIN. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE WIPERS IS TO PULL THE FUSE. THERE IS A RECALL ON 2011-2014 MODELS BUT NOT ON THE 2015 MODEL. THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECTIVE FORD SWITCH BUT COMPANY WILL NOT COVER THE REPLACEMENT. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND 800 NUMBER.

FROZEN WIPER NOZZLES, FROZEN WASHER FLUID RESERVOIR, FROZEN HOSES TO AND FROM RESERVOIR TO NOZZLE SPRAYER. MULTIPLE OCCASIONS OF THE FLUID BEING FROZEN, OR FREEZING WHILE DRIVING. USING WINTER MIX SOLUTION DESIGNED FOR UPTO -20. TRIED OTHER BRANDS, STILL END UP WITH FREEZING SPRAYER WHILE DRIVING, TEMPERATURE HAS DONE THIS AT AROUND 20 DEGREES, UNCERTAIN IF THIS IS DUE TO CHARACTERISTIC OF ALUMINUM BODY OR POOR DESIGN. CHECK VALVE WAS OBSERVED BEING FROZEN AT ONE POINT WITH BLOCKAGE, HAD AN UPDATED CHECKVALVE/LINE KIT I PURCHASED, AFTER READING IN F150 FORUM FOR TSB FOR F150, YET STILL HAD ISSUES. VEHICLE REMAINS GARAGED WHILE NOT IN USE, OTHER VEHICLES INCLUDING OLDER FORD RANGER AND A PLYMOUTH NEON DID NOT HAVE THESE ISSUES ALTHOUGH SITTING OUTSIDE WITH SAME WIPER FLUID. SIGNIFICANT HAZARD ON HIGHWAY TO HAVE SPRAYER GO FROM WORKING TO FROZEN IN SECONDS WITH THE MISTING OF OTHER CARS IN THE SNOW...

PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY MY POWER SLIDING BACK WINDOW EXPLODED AND SHATTERED. THE REAR DEFROST WAS NOT ON AND THERE WAS NO IMPACT OR DAMAGE.
