| Description of the problem | My husband was driving home from work when he heard a pop that sounded like a balloon bursting and he smelled something burning. He did have the rear sliding window open partially. When he got home, he looked the vehicle over to find his back window had shattered. Our insurance covered it 100% but this appears to not be an isolated incident. I went online and learned that has happened to other ford f150s and explorers and ford will not accept responsibility. I am going to put a complaint in with them as well. |
