 Description of the problemRear defroster was not working, i actually realized it when hitting the rear defrost on/off button by mistake. The service department told me that this is known and common problem with the f -150. I noticed the problem when i was a couple of months and 2000 miles out of warranty. (didn't need rear defrost for many months). I never needed my rear defroster during the summer in michigan. I noticed this problem even before the first time i needed to use it in the fall. When i took it in the dealer led me to believe that ford would pay for this because it was a known issue. Ford denied that it was a known issue and told me they would only cover part of the repair, leaving me with a $250. 00 fee. The rear window defrosters on the f-150 are a safety hazard and can cause the rear window to explode if not replaced. The service team informed me that i was lucky that mine hadn't exploded. I only noticed it because my button on my instrument cluster didn't illuminate when i tied to use the rear window defroster. Ford motor company should be ashamed at the way they are hiding this known issue.
