Description of the problem	Started truck at 0700 am, outside temperature was 50 degrees. The rear window was foggy so i turned on the rear defroster. After about 15 minutes of driving along a road with no traffic i heard a loud explosion that sounded like a large rock had landed on the roof of my truck. I pulled over and inspected my roof and all exterior panels of the vehicle and did not notice any damage that could have justified the noise. I could not find any "rocks" in or around my vehicle... No pedestrians were in site. Returned to cab and as i was pulling back onto the roadway i noticed that my rear window (right panel) was shattered. Took vehicle to ford dealership that evening and was told it was not a warrantable repair. The glass remained intact and there were no visible signs of a projectile hitting the glass (i have photos). I insisted that a warranty claim be opened, and i contacted customer relations. Ford then tested the defroster and could not find a malfunction so they said they would not warranty the failure. I have photos, a case number, dealer invoice, and voice mail recordings of the 3 weeks of hell trying to get ford to do the right thing. They finally agreed to pay for half the wholesale cost of a replacement glass; i had it installed professionally on 11/15/2011. Updated 11/14/12 cn updated updated 11/14/2012 js

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
