2011 Ford Taurus Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors) Problems

“I was driving at about 40 MPH on a cool, sunny day when my moonroof on my 2011 fordtaurus exploded. It made a very loud noise at first (similar to a gunshot) which was followed by the glass crackling for about 45 minutes. It was not struck by any object (rock, etc). The Ford dealership I took it to immediately afterwards was dumbfounded as to what would have caused it to shatter. Very small glass fragments did fall into the car. Because my warranty had expired, I had to pay for a replacement out of pocket.”

“While driving a 2011 Ford Taurus rental vehicle the contact stated that the sun reflected over his left shoulder and glared over the metal part of the instrument panel making it difficult to see the gauges. The manufacturer was contacted and stated they would return his phone call. They offered no additional assistance. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was 8,000.”

“The contact owns a 2011 Ford Taurus. Every time it rained, water accumulated on the carpet and center console. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who stated that the sun roof drain tube hole was bent and clogged. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000.”

“The contact owns a 2011 Ford Taurus. The contact stated that the rear shade erroneously and independently activated and made it impossible for the contact to see out of the window. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was found that the shade needed to be replaced. The vehicle was being repaired. The manufacturer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was 84,000.”
