I TURNED ON MY DEFROST ON MY REAR TRUCK WINDOW, LET THE TRUCK WARM UP AS IT WAS -5, STARTED TO DRIVE DOWN THE STREET, DOING 50 KM, HEARD A LOUD "POP" AND THE BACK SLIDING WINDOW SHATTERED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. LUCKILY IT STAYED INTACT AS I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK. I STOPPED AT FORD TO SEE WHAT THEY COULD DO, AS I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THE FORD TRUCKS. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT FORD SAID HE COULND'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME AS I NO LONGER HAD WARRANTY. HE WANTED TO CHARGE ME $1200 FOR A NEW WINDOW. I CALLED FORD MOTOR CO. AND THEY ALSO SAID THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT (EVEN THO IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM). I HAD THE WINDOW FIXED BY AN INDEPENDENT COMPANY FOR HALF THE PRICE FORD WOULD HAVE CHARGED. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, AS IT IS CERTAINLY A SAFETY HAZARD. THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON THE NHTSA SITE.

EXPLODING REAR GLASS. DRIVING THRU KANSAS AND ENCOUNTERED SOME FREEZING RAIN. I ACTIVATED THE HEATED MIRRORS AND REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER AS THE TEMP OUTSIDE WAS AROUND 25 DEGREES. I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 40MPH IN THE INTERSTATE AT THE TIME, A FEW MINUTES AFTER I HAD ACTIVATED THE DEFROSTER WE HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT. AFTER A QUICK LOOK AROUND WE NOTICED ONE SECTION OF THE REAR WINDOW HAD EXPLODED. MY YOUNG DAUGHTER WAS IN HER CAR SEAT DIRECTLY UNDER THE WINDOW AND HAD SMALL SHARDS OF GLASS IN HER HAIR. IN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE WE HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL YEAR BUT THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT. WE ARE HOPING FOR A NHTSA INTERVENTION FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE,

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AFTER HAVING THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER ON FOR ~5 TO 10 MINS HEARD LOUD POP. THOUGHT SOMETHING HIT THE TRUCK UPON INVESTIGATION FOUND REAR PASSENGER SIDE SECTION OF BACK GLASS SHATTERED BUT STILL IN PLACE. GOOGLED PROBLEM ON INTERNET AND FOUND MANY OTHER INSTANCES THAT HAD THIS SAME ISSUE ON SEVERAL FORUMS. NO SIGNS OF IMPACT WHERE ANYTHING HIT THE WINDOW. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE DEFROSTER WAS ACTIVATED, THE REAR WINDSHIELD SHATTERED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED HOWEVER, THE REAR WINDOW WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000.

THE TRUCK WILL JUST STALL WITH NO WARNING AND NO ENGINE ERROR CODES. I WAS GOING FROM A STOP TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN AND STALLED IN MIDDLE OF 4 LANE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO PUT THE ENGINE IN PARK AND START THE ENGINE IN ORDER TO GET OUT OF THE HIGHWAY. MY NEPHEW WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK A WEEK PRIOR AND IT STALLED AT A STOP LIGHT AND PROCEEDED TO ROLE DOWN A HILL. HE HAD TO PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND RESTART THE ENGINE. IT DOES NOT PRODUCE ANY ENGINE ERROR CODES. THE TRUCK WILL BE RUNNING JUST FINE THEN THE ENGINE WILL JUST QUIT. RESEARCHING ONLINE FOR FORD 5.4L F150 ENGINE STALLS IT APPEARS OTHER PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING SIMILAR ISSUES. I TOOK IT THE OTHER DAY AND IT WAS STATED THAT THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THEN THEY SAID IT COULD BE A O2 SENSOR. MY EXPERIENCE WITH FAULTY O2 SENSORS IS USUALLY ROUGH IDLE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WHICH MY TRUCK DOES NOT HAVE. I UNDERSTAND IT MAYBE A HARD PROBLEM TO SOLVE BUT IT APPEARS THAT THIS COULD BE A BIG SAFETY PROBLEM DUE TO LOSS OF POWER.

THE VEHICLE STALLED WHEN COMING TO A STOP AND WHEN SLOWING TO MAKE A SHARP TURN CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STOP AND LOOSE BRAKING AND STEERING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE FORD DEALER AT A COST OF $820.25 TO REPLACE PART # 8F9Z 9F472 E SENSOR HEGO, ON THE FIRST VISIT WHICH DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM, ON THE NEXT VISIT TO THE DEALER PART # 8F9Z 9E730 G SENSOR HEGO AND PART # 9L3Z 9E730 G VALVE ASY FUEL VAPOUR WERE REPLACED WHICH CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE STALLED WHEN APPROACHING STOP SINGS AND WHEN SLOWING TO MAKE A SHARP TURN ON HIGHWAYS WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC BEHIND MY VEHICLE CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKES AND STEERING. I HAVE THE INVOICES IN MY POSSESSION BUT AM UNABLE TO UPLOAD.

2010 FORD F150 PLATINUM LEFT REAR WINDOW SHATTERED WHEN USING REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER. TURNED DEFROSTER ON AND HEARD A LOUD CRACK AFTER APPROX 3 MINUTES USE. 11/21/2015. SIMILAR TO OTHER SCENARIOS AND REPLIES POSTED HERE BUT I HAVE ADDED SOME PHOTOS. IT WOULD APPEAR A WATER LEAK HAS CAUSED WATER TO BUILD UP IN THE TRACK AND SHORTED THE CIRCUIT. 1ST IMAGE OF SHATTERED WINDOW. 2ND IMAGE OF MELTED WINDOW CASING.

THE ORIGINAL MICHELIN TIRES ON MY 2010 F-150, HAD TO BE REPLACED DUE TO CRACKING AROUND THE RIM ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE. TIRES HAD 31346 MILES AT REPLACEMENT ON 5 OCT 2015. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL REAR SHOCKS AT 31360 MILES DUE TO ONE LEAKING AND ONE THAT WAS NOT WORKING AT ALL.
