| Description of the problem | On 02/20/2021 parked my vehicle in my driveway. All glass was fine and intact. Morning of 02/21/2021 i remote started my truck to leave. Absolutely nothing has changed over night or the morning of, truck is sitting exactly where i parked it. No adverse weather. A few minutes later i am pulling out of my driveway and i look into my review mirror and see my driver's side, back window glass completely shattered. I know nothing has hit it from the inside, plus the very large headrest is in position and protects most of that window from the inside. I know nothing could have hit from the outside as a i have a properly fitted century cap on the bed of the truck and this protects the glass from being struck on the outside. I look up information on the internet and find many many complaints of this very issue occurring in multiple years of f150's and many similarly related to remote start, window defroster, allegations. I can not find anything that recognizes this as a recall yet. Several articles or videos i saw recommended a complaint through here. This many trucks, same issue, same make, models and quite a year span. This should be a recall. |
