 Description of the problemOn january 22 2018 at approximately 11:00 p. M., i started my truck with the remote start, which activates the rear window defroster, as needed. On my 20 mile ride home from work, mostly freeway driving, i heard crackling noises, and i was watching in the rear view mirror, my entire rear window shattering, except for the center power sliding piece. When i got home, pieces of glass fell inside the cab and bed when i closed the door. Ford is aware of this issue, but they refuse to repair it. In the meantime, i am forced to pay $500 deductible for my insurance to repair it, even though i had purchased the extended warranty when i bought it brand new. It has approximately 15,000 miles on it now. Researching this problem, i believe it is a defect in the glass, causing it to shatter when the defroster warms up the glass.
