“The rear window in my 2014 f150 randomly exploded. This is the second time in a year and a half. The first time is was cold and I activated my rear defrosters. Shortly after, I heard a loud bang and looked back to see my window completely shattered. The second time, it was 83 out and I was driving on local roads. Both ovations the vehicle was traveling under 40 miles per hour”
NHTSA complaint #11255594, filed 2019-09, 52,000 miles“My door latch and striker are in need of replacement. The door rattles going down the road. The truck has never been in an accident that may have caused this. My concern is it seems to be similar to the problem with my Ford fusion. The dealership in requesting $535 to repair. I believe this to be something that should be part of a recall. Drivers door”
NHTSA complaint #11000365, filed 2017-06, 60,000 miles“Back window exploded with no apparent cause after putting defrost on. Shattered on my 2 month old baby. This is a well known and documented issue with these trucks and there needs to be a recall right away not only did he almost get cut but I am out 1000 to replace the whole sliding rear window assembly!!”
NHTSA complaint #11071706, filed 2018-02, 140,000 miles“This morning, I got in my truck and started it. As I was pulling out of my parking space, less then 1 minute with the engine running, I heard a huge pop in my backseat. I look back, the drivers side rear window just shattered. I got out and immediately took pictures, see below, and checked for any impacts and there were none. My window literally shattered on its own. I am taking it to Ford this afternoon after work.”
