Description of the problem	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.
