2010 FORD FUSION Visibility Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD FUSION. WHEN THE DOWN BUTTON WAS DEPRESSED ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW, THE WINDOW FAILED TO ROLL DOWN. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR FAILED TO OPEN FROM THE INSIDE. THE CONTACT HAD TO EXIT THE VEHICLE FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 99,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

GOOD DAY, I BOUGHT MY CAR USED BACK IN 2011. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES IN THE 3 YEARS REGARDING THE TINTED WINDOWS. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY WORK DONE ON THEM WHILE I OWNED THE VEHICLE EITHER. LAST WEEK THE SERVICE STATION REJECTED AN INSPECTION STICKER DUE TO THIS ISSUE. MY WINDOWS ARE AT A 27 AND I WAS TOLD THAT SHOULD BE AT A 35. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT CARS TODAY WHO'S TINTED WINDOWS DO NOT LOOK ANY DIFFERENT THAN MINE AT ALL. WHY ARE SOME PEOPLE ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH SOME THINGS IF ITS THE LAW... AND OTHERS DO NOT? PLEASE ADVISE. UNFAIR TREATMENT! THE LAW IS THE LAW AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO TAKE A REJECTION WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IS DRIVING AROUND WITH THE SAME TINT. DID THE LAW RECENTLY CHANGE? THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION IN THIS MATTER. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED...

2010 FORD FUSION SEL. CUSTOMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO CONTINUED TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS.*SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SLIP HARSHLY AND HESITATE ON ACCELERATION. THE RECALL REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE VALVE BODY AND SOLENOID BODY WERE DEFECTIVE. ALSO, ONE OF THE TIRES WAS LEAKING AIR, THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE TRACTION AND BRAKES. THERE WERE NOISES COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE.

THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR HAD TO BE SLAMMED EXTREMELY HARD, IN ORDER TO CLOSE IT. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT WAS BACKWARDS. THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPER DRAGGED ON THE WINDSHIELD AND THE VEHICLE WOULD...

IN COLD/INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE WIPERS WILL NOT STAY DEFROSTED AND WILL FREEZE TO THE WINDSHIELD & NOT COME ON, OR WILL NOT CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD FOR ENOUGH VISIBILITY TO SEE THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING WHICH CAN CAUSE A CRASH. THIS IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE WIPERS SIT TOO FAR BELOW THE DEFROSTER VENTS ON THE CAR. I LET MY CAR WARM UP FOR 15 MINS ON DEC 12TH AND MADE SURE THEY WERE CLEAN BEFORE I GOT ON THE PARKWAY. AFTER BEING ON THE ROAD 20 MINUTES & LEAVING MY DEFROSTER ON HIGH, I TURNED MY WIPERS ON TO CLEAR THE DIRTY WATER/SLUSH THROWN ON MY CAR BY 18 WHEELERS. THE WIPERS STUCK AGAIN, AND I RAN OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BY LOOKING OUT THE SIDE WINDOWS TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT. I HAD TO PRY THE WIPERS OFF THE WINDSHIELD BECAUSE THEY HAD FROZE AGAIN. THIS...

I HAVE A 2010 FORD FUSION SEL AND RIGHT AFTER I FIRST GOT IT I HAD A CRACK IN WINDSHIELD AND THOUGHT A ROCK MUST HAVE HIT IT. I GOT IT REPAIRED (AFTER MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE REPAIRS) AND NOT LONG AFTER I GOT A STAR BURST. WILL HAVE TO HAVE IT FIXED NOW TOO! I HAVE HAD MANY CARS THROUGHOUT THE YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD, THIS ONE NOW TWICE AND ONLY 10,000 MILES ON IT???? *TR

WHILE DRIVING OUR BRAND NEW FORD FUSION SEDAN SE ON THE FREEWAY AROUND 2PM. I WAS FAR AWAY FROM CARS AND I DON'T DRIVE NEAR SEMI'S OR DUMP TRUCKS I HEARD A NOISE IN THE WINDSHIELD FRAME ON THE PASSENGER SIDE MID WAY UP AND THEN A HORIZONTAL CRACK APPROX 14 INCHES APPEARED. I GOT OFF THE NEXT EXIT AND CALLED OUR DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND THEY SAID BRING INTO SERVICE DEPT 7AM NEXT MORNING. THE SERVICE DEPT LOOKED AT WINDSHIELD AND FRAME AND STATED IT WAS A MICROSCOPIC CHIP. WE HAD TO PAY ALMOST $400 FOR A NEW WINDSHIELD AND WE STILL THINK IT WAS A DEFECTIVE WINDSHIELD. IT WAS AT APPROX 1,000 MILES. IT'S INTERESTING AND CONCERNING A FRIEND OF OURS BOUGHT A FORD FUSION S AT THE SAME DEALER OVER A MONTH AGO AND AFTER 2 WEEKS HIS WINDSHIELD DID THE SAME THING. WE'D APPRECIATE YOU CHECKING INTO...
