 Description of the problemMy husband and i bought the 2013 f150 platinum on oct. 17th 2020 with 96,726 miles on it. At 97,400 miles, we have put less then 700 miles on the used vehicle when all of a sudden on dec. 4th 2020 our window shatttered. My husband parked the truck in the drive next to the house as we have always done with all our vehicles. My husband was heading out for work on dec 4th 2020 when he heard what seemed like a gun shot going off. He had used the auto start on the truck and went out about 5-10 minutes later to place his lunch bag and coffee thermos in the rear floorboard of the truck like he does every morning. He closed the door and started to walk towards the end of the driveway to check the mail from the previous day since it had not been checked. When he closed the door and got to the rear of the truck he heard the loud bang ( gun shot sound), thinking it was a gun shot he walked back to the front of the truck and around it looking for any indication of a gun shot or a person with a gun. His military training kicked in... Upon investigating he found nothing that seemed out of the norm so hecontiued down the drive, checked the mail and got back to the truck to go to work. Driving to work he seen on the back window what he thought was ice. He turned the rear defrost on waiting for it to melt off and thought nothing more of it. That afternoon after work he had realized the ice look was still there. When he got home he looked at the window closer. Come to find out it was the rear drivers side window that had made the loud sound. The window had shattered for no real reason. The window is a hazard as it could of fell out while driving down the road. I have contacted ford and reported the issue. Waiting on a return call as to if they are going to replace the window under warranty or not. I have seen several reports about this same issue other places online.
