VISIBILITY/WIPER
SECTION OF REAR WINDSHIELD SHATTERED WHILE DRIVING. THE REAR WINDSHIELD HAS A SLIDING MIDDLE SECTION AND HEATED DEFROST IN THE GLASS. THE DEFROST FOR THIS WINDSHIELD IS ON THE SAME SWITCH AND CIRCUIT AS THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR DEFROST. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THE MORNING OF JANUARY 7TH 2020 AT APPROX. 0630. THE TEMPERATURE WAS COOL OUT AND MY DRIVER'S MIRROR WAS FOGGED UP. I TURNED ON MY MIRROR DEFROST AND APPROX. 5 MINUTES LATER HEARD A LOUD BANG. I STOPPED THE TRUCK TO SE IF SOMETHING HAD HIT MY TRUCK AND FOUND THE DRIVER'S SIDE PORTION OF MY REAR WINDSHIELD WAS SHATTERED. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A RURAL ISOLATED ROAD WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES AROUND AT THE TIME AND NO HOMES IN THE AREA. THE WINDOW TINE KEPT THE GLASS IN PLACE AND THERE WERE NO HOLES IN THE TINT WHERE SOMETHING PIERCED THE GLASS. WHEN THE SUN CAME I UP CHECKED MORE CLOSELY AND IT APPEARS AS IF THE GLASS SHATTERED FROM INSIDE THE FRAME WHERE THE DEFROST WIRE WAS. I CALLED THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED NO RECALLS. WHEN I SEARCHED ONLINE I FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS OF SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE REAR DEFROSTER ON FORD F150 PICK-UPS. I PAID MY $500 DEDUCTIBLE TO HAVE THE GLASS REPLACED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH MY REAR DEFROST OPERATING. I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING THAT HAD AN "ELECTRICAL BURN" SMELL. I THENHEARD A LOUD "POP". I LOOKED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SAW THAT MY REAR DRIVER SIDE BACK GLASS PANEL (SLIDING GLASS WINDOW) WAS SHATTERED. THIS WAS ESPECIALLY CONCERNING BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER WAS SEATED DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE SHATTERED GLASS IN HER CAR SEAT. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND SAW NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER IN THIS MODEL OF TRUCK. THAT EXPLAINS THE ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WAS HAVING TROUBLE STARTING MY TRUCK ONE DAY. CRANKING AND CRANKING BUT NOT FIRING. SOMETIMES IT WOULD EVENTUALLY FIRE, SOMETIMES IT REQUIRED A JUMP TO GET IT GOING. TOOK IT INTO FORD, THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY. DIDN'T HAPPEN FOR A FEW MORE DAYS. SAME THING. CRANK, CRANK, CRANK, BUT WOULDN'T START. DID SOME SEARCHING ONLINE, AND FOUND SIMILAR SITUATION REGARDING A BURNT/MELTED FUSE 27 (THE FUEL PUMP FUSE). FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE SO MUCH THAT THEY EVEN CREATED A PART TO MOVE THE FUEL PUMP TO A LARGER FUSE. I'M GLAD THIS ISSUE ONLY HAPPENED WHILE SITTING STILL AND I WAS ABLE TO GET THE FUSED REPLACED WITHOUT INCIDENT. HOWEVER, I WOULD IMAGINE THAT SOON MY VEHICLE WOULD HAVE STOPPED WHILE TRAVELING DUE TO THE FUEL PUMP FUSE COMPLETELY DYING. ALSO SEEMS LIKE A FIRE HAZARD, OR IT COULD DO FURTHER DAMAGE TO THE FUSE BOX OR TO SURROUNDING FUSES. FORD SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS IMMEDIATELY.

STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE A NOTIFICATION LIGHT ON THE DASH STATING THAT MY LEFT REAR DOOR IS OPEN, WHEN IN FACT, IT IS NOT. THERE IS A FAULTY WIRE I BELIEVE THAT IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE. ALSO, I CANNOT LOCK MY ENTIRE TRUCK WITH THE KEY FOB BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, AND I CAN ONLY DO IT MANUALLY. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. ALSO, MY FRONT MAP LIGHTS AND THE REAR WINDOW DEFROST DOES NOT WORK. I LIVE IN A COLD STATE (INDIANA) SO IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE THESE ELECTRICAL ISSUES TAKEN CARE OF. JUST LIKE MOST PEOPLE, I HAVE CHILDREN THAT ARE FREQUENTLY IN MY TRUCK. NOTHING HAS BEEN HIT OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY. THIS JUST STARTED HAPPENING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN JUNE 2019. I'VE TOLD MY LOCAL FORD DEALER, BUT THEY TELL ME THAT SINCE IT IS NOT ON RECALL I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET. I AM A DISABLED VETERAN, AND THAT'S NOT NECESSARILY THE EASIEST THING FOR ME TO DO, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I'VE THOUGH ABOUT GETTING AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT HOW CAN I BE SURE THAT WILL COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIRS? THANK YOU

POWER TRAIN
2014 F150 PICKUP WHILE AT SPEED (FIRST TIME AT 35MPH AND SECOND AT 65MPH) ON TWO OCCASIONS DOWNSHIFTED INTO 1ST GEAR, CAUSING SPEEDOMETER TO READ 0 AND ODOMETER TO READ ----------. A TECHNICIAN READ CODE P0722 FROM COMPUTER AFTER LAST INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED ONE MONTH AFTER THE END DATE OF A RECALL DESIGNATED TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM, AND FORD WILL NOT FIX THIS TRUCK UNDER THAT RECALL, LEAVING THE EXPENSE OF THE REPAIR TO THE OWNER. WE DO NOT TRUST THIS VEHICLE TO BE SAFE TO DRIVE OVER 40MPH AS A LOSS OF CONTROL AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS DUE TO REAR TIRE LOCKUP COULD BE CATASTROPHIC.
