2015 FORD EDGE Complaints

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME STIFF AND DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. ALSO, THE HILL START ASSIST/NOT AVAILABLE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. GRIFFITH FORD SAN MARCOS (2661 INTERSTATE 35 FRONTAGE RD, SAN MARCOS, TX 78666, (888) 690-5431) DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING GEAR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000.

RATTLE IN THE PILLARS AND THE PANORAMIC SUNROOF, WHEN DRIVING THE CAR AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 35 AND 50 MILES PER HOUR. I HAVE HAD THE CAR AT THE DEALER, HAWK FORD IN ST. CHARLES IL. SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST 18 MONTHS. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE SUNROOF, SIDE AIRBAGS, AND SEAT BELTS. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THERE MAY BE A STRUCTURAL PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR, MODEL FORD, WHERE THE PINCH WELD HOLDING SUNROOF MOUNTING BRACKET HAD A BAD WELD. THE RATTLE IS SO BAD AT TIMES I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE IS A STRUCTURAL PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE.

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.

I WAS WAXING THE TOP OF REAR HATCH. WHEN I HEARD A CRACKING SOUND. THEN NOTICED THE PANORAMIC GLASS HAD CRACKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

APPEARS TO BE TWO SEPARATE WAVY CRACKS ACROSS REAR ROOF PANEL. NO INDICATION OF ANY STRIKES. SAME EXPERIENCE AS MANY OTHERS HAVE DOCUMENTED REGARDING CRACKS FOR NO APPARENT REASON. DID EXPERIENCE FAILURE WHEN CLOSING ROOF PANEL ALSO.

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.
