2017 Ford Edge Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors) Problems

“Went to wash my 2017 Ford EDGE car two weeks ago in my driveway and notice the panoramic roof glass had wavy cracks in it. No chips or leaks just a wavy crack that can be felt from the exterior. Reserched this issue and found it to be common in edges from 2014 and up to the point that there was a class action lawsuit filed against Ford for not doing anything that was dropped in 2016. I don't know if it's a stress fracture or due to the heat. Ethier way I am concerned the glass is going to fail even more. There are accounts where these roofs have exploded while driving also.”

“The sun visor on the passenger side fell out of the headliner on the mounting side the first time we put it down--it hung down about two inches. Today under rapid acceleration the other side came out of it;s clip fastener and the whole unit fell down about ten inches in front of my wife face.

“The front sunroof cracked from the front to the back of the glass. The vehicle was only six weeks old and had been driven only 2,900 miles. The dealer said that they have seen this happen a lot but that the $1,300 repair would not be covered under warranty. Ford motor company confirmed the next day that they would not cover this defect.”

“Frst noticed in november the car would not generate heat while at idle. This prevented defrosting of windshield. Noticed heat would return at higher revs, but this also decreased. Noticed fluid level was low added antifreeze and heat returned somewhat but not at idle. Car has 36,200 miles, just off warranty. This is an obvious safety hazard since drivingin winter requires a functioning defroster. Local mechanic noted that check engine light for misfire of cylinder #1 indicated a head gasket leak which was where my coolant was disappearing. …”
