I was stopped at a traffic light and all of a sudden my rear window exploded. It sent glass forward richoceting of the front windshield into my eyes. It was like a gun shot was fired into my truck. This caused me to have post traumatic stress. This and the fact that no one believed me that the rear window spontaneously exploded. Since my care was paid for, the window was paid out of pocket adding insult to injury

Rear window is held in place with a piece of trim, which is held in place by double-sided tape. It is a safety issue as the window can become dislodged and injured occupants. Ford is aware of this as the Ford company Refuses to fix this on many of the forum websites.. this has been going on since 2015. It is also a safety issue as anyone can easily push the window open with their hand, and could access the vehicle to steal it, or to injure the occupants. Based on the few forums that I looked up under Google, there are hundreds of vehicles like this, and probably tens of thousands. Ford has failed to issue and fails to repair the window as they say it’s a piece of trim although the trim is what holds in the window. Essentially a few small pieces of tape hold the window...

12 Dec 2022. In southern Maryland I started my truck remotely. About 15 minutes later I went out to the truck, opened up the back rear door and placed a roll of Christmas paper on the floor. I closed the door and then a loud explosion took place. The Rear window (Not door windows), with a center motorized sling window, had completed shattered throwing glass all over the covered truck bed and inside of the back seat. No one was in the car when I closed the door. Did an internet search and this is a major problem with these trucks in the USA and Canada. Called 2 Ford dealers. First was no help at all and the other professed to look into it and has not called back. Contacted my insurance Company and it is covered but I have to pay a $1,000 deductible. This is a serious hazard...
