TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HER HUSBAND WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30-40 MPH, 2 MILES DOWN THE ROAD THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL BURNING ODOR COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER EXITED THE VEHICLE AND OPENED THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WHERE IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THERE WERE FLAMES. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE. THE POLICE WAS CALLED, THEY EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. IT WAS UNKNOWN IF A REPORT WAS FILED ON THE INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN IMPOUND LOT. THE INSURANCE COMPANY DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BACK IN FEBRUARY 2019 UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V568000 (SEAT BELTS, STRUCTURE) BY THE DEALER (DAVID MCDAVID FORD FORT WORTH, 300 W LOOP 820 S, FORT WORTH, TX 76108).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. ALSO, 'LOW FLUID' DISPLAYED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS CAUTIOUSLY DRIVEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND MASTER CYLINDER WERE FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,767.

CAME TO A STOP SIGN AND EVERYTHING WORKED, AT THE NEXT STOP SIGN IT WAS AS IF SOMEONE FLIPPED A SWITCH (RESIDENTIAL AREA WITH MANY INTERSECTIONS). MY BRAKE PEDAL WOULD SINK TO THE FLOOR AND COULD BARELY STOP THE TRUCK. HOWEVER IF SLAMMING THE BRAKES THE ABS WOULD FUNCTION AND STOP THE TRUCK AS EXPECTED. INSPECTED BRAKE SYSTEM AND FLUID LEVEL WAS ABOVE MINIMUM IN THE RESERVOIR AND FOUND NO EXTERNAL LEAKING OF BRAKE FLUID (FAILURE WAS INTERNAL TO THE MASTER CYLINDER). TOWED BACK HOME AND ISOLATED MASTER CYLINDER AND FOUND IT TO BE THE ISSUE. REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKES FUNCTION PROPERLY AGAIN. (WHEN I REMOVED THE MASTER THE BOOSTED STILL HELD VACUUM AND FLUID WAS NOT LEAKING INTO BOOSTER. )

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO HAVE A TIRE ROTATION, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE LUG NUTS WERE SWOLLEN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED.

THE PANORAMIC SUN ROOF WILL NOT CLOSE AND IS STUCK IN THE PARTIALLY OPENED POSITION. THE GLASS HAS A PARTIAL CRACK IN IT AND I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WILL SHATTER INJURING ANY PASSENGERS. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 21000 MILES. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A DESIGN DEFECT. I CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY REFUSED TO TAKE ANY CORRECTIVE ACTION ON THIS PROBLEM. ONE MONTH EARLIER THE ROOF WOULD NOT CLOSE AND I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY PRESSED ON THE GLASS AND FINALLY THE GLASS PANEL RETURNED INTO THE TRACK AND CLOSED.

LEFT MY HOME THIS MORNING AND APPROACHED A STOP SIGN AND ALMOST LOST COMPLETE BRAKING ON MY VEHICLE. BRAKE PEDAL WAS FIRM BUT ALMOST NO STOPPING ABILITY. BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR IS FULL AND BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION.

COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE. PARKED TRUCK AND BRAKES WORKED NORMALLY. 15 MINUTES LATER STARTED ENGINE AND BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. NO LEAKAGE AT WHEEL CYLINDERS OR MASTER CYLINDER. 36,000 MILES. NO PRIOR WARNING OF LOW FLUID UNTIL THE FAILURE HAPPENED. TOWED TO LOCAL FORD DEALER.

REAR TAILGATE OPENS ON IT'S OWN WHILE DRIVING.

I HAD THE WRENCH SYMBOL APPEAR ON MY DASH DISPLAY AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED, LOST POWER WHILE I WAS IN TRAFFIC. IT IS NOW AT THE DEALER THAT SOLD IT TO ME, BUT THIS IS SCARY SITUATION TO LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING.

STEERING WAS LOCKING UP WHILE DRIVING, TOOK TO DEALER THREE TIMES WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THE DEALER STATED THERE WAS NO ISSUE BECAUSE THERE WAS NO CODES. MY STEERING WENT OUT COMPLETELY AND CAN NOT STEER. MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH EPAS HAVE BEEN FOUND ONLINE WITH FORD F150S.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 45 MPH, ALL OF A SUDDEN ADVANCE TRACK SERVICE WARNING APPEARED, HILL DESCENT OFF, AND TRUCK LOST ALL POWER AND BEGAN TO IDEA ROUGHLY, COULD NOT ACCELERATE, WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. FORTUNATELY I HAVE A MECHANICAL BACKGROUND, TURNED OFF IGNITION WAITED A MINUTE AND TRIED TO RESTART THE TRUCK, CRANKED HARDER THAN NORMAL, ENGINE SERVICE LITE WAS ON, TURNED OFF ADVANCE TRACK AND WENT A FEW MILES AND HAPPENED AGAIN. WENT THROUGH SAME STEPS AND RESTARTED VEHICLE, WAS ABLE TO DRIVE 10 MILES TO HOME. WHEN I STARTED THE TRUCK THIS MORNING THE ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT WAS OFF, WENT A FEW MILES AND SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS IS A DEFINITE SERIOUS ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. IF YOU ARE ON AN INTERSTATE GO 70 MPH IN TRAFFIC AND THIS WOULD HAPPEN MOST PEOPLE WOULD NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. DOING SOME ONLINE SEARCHING THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM THAT FORD HAS FAILED TO ADDRESS , IT MUST TAKE LOSS OF LIFE BEFORE THIS PROBLEM IS ADDRESSED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE DRIVER'S SEAT BACK WAS NOT SECURE AND MOVED AROUND. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HUNTINGTON BEACH FORD (18255 BEACH BLVD, HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA 92648, (888) 516-4195) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT BACK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

AFTER DRIVING FOR ON FOR ABOUT AN HOUR I PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY AND MY BRAKE PEDDLE WENT VERY SOFT. BRAKE FLUID LOW WARNING AND MY BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. I GO THE TRUCK STOPPED (SLOWLY) AND CHECKED FLUID - VIRTUALLY EMPTY. I NURSED THE TRUCK TO A SERVICE STATION FILLED FLUID DROVE ABOUT 7 MILES SLOWLY TO HOME AND LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. PULLED IN FLUID WAS GONE. FOUND THAT THE FLUID WAS LEAKING INTO THE BOOSTER CYLINDER. HAVE TO REPLACE THE MASTER AND BOOSTER CYLINDER. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN OPEN INVESTIGATION AND IT NEEDS TO BE ELEVATED BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT EASILY.

MY 2016 FORD F150 HAD TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE WITH OUT WARNING, THIS ALMOST RESULTED IN A MAJOR VEHICLE ACIDENT. THE OCCURED ON A BUSY STREET WITH OUT WARNING THE TRUCK LOST ALL BRAKING AND ABILITY TO STOP.

THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE STEEL WHEEL FRACTURED AND SEPARATED WHILE DRIVING ON A BLACK TOP ROADWAY. THE PART THAT SEPARATED AND CAME OFF WAS LOCATED. THERE APPEARED TO BE NO DAMAGE THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE FRACTURE. THIS IS A LAW ENFORCEMENT VEHICLE.

ON 05/11/19 WHILE DRIVING I EXPERIENCED NEARLY COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE DUE TO THE MASTER CYLINDER RUPTURING. SEQUENTIALLY THE LEAKING BRAKE FLUID DRAINED INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER WHICH ALSO HAD TO BE REPLACED. AS THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT WAS QUITE MIRACULOUS NO ONE WAS INJURED.

WHILE DRIVING I RECIEVED A BRAKE FLUID LEVEL LOW WARNING LIGHT. PROCEDED CAUTIOUSLY TO WORK APPROXIMATELY A MILE AWAY WITHOUT ANY ISSUE. LOOKED AT THE RESERVOIR AND FOUND IT TO BE NEARLY EMPTY. AFTER THE TRUCK SAT I WENT TO LEAVE WORK HOPING TO MAKE IT TO A PARTS STORE TO GET BRAKE FLUID. GOT IN TO START IT AND THE PEDAL WENT COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE. HITCHED A RIDE TO GET FLUID AND TOPPED IT OFF. I GOT BACK IN AND HEADED DOWN THE ROAD MAKING IT NO MORE THAN A MILE BEFORE I COMPLETELY LOST MY BRAKES. AFTER SERVICE THIS WAS APPARENTLY CAUSED BY A FAULTY SEAL IN THE MASTER CYLINDER PUMPING ALL THE BRAKE FLUID INTO THE BOOSTER. A PROBLEM FORD HAS HAD WITH PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS AND RECALLED. THIS TYPE OF FAILURE LEAVES NO EVIDENCE OF A LEAK. THIS WAS A SUDDEN AND COMPLETE LOSS OF THE ABILITY TO STOP MY VEHICLE EXCEPT FOR THE PARKING BREAK. DANGEROUS TO SAY THE LEAST.

THE SYNC 3 SYSTEMS FUNCTIONS POORLY OR NOT AT ALL. OFTEN TIMES IT STALLS, FREEZES OR BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE WHICH CAN CAUSE THE FOLLOWING TO HAPPEN. THE SCREEN GOES BLACK AND I AM UNABLE TO ADJUST THE CLIMATE OR USE THE RADIO. ALL FUNCTIONS ARE DISABLED. THE SCREEN GET STUCK WITH THE BACKUP CAMERA ON AND ALL OF THE CONTROLS ARE DISABLED, INCLUDING THE CLIMATE CONTROL. THE SCREEN IS UNRESPONSIVE TO THE TOUCH AND THE CLIMATE CONTROL, RADIO AND ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS DO NOT WORK. THE NAVIGATION GETS STUCK ON THE SCREEN AND THE LOCATION IS INACCURATE AND YOU CANNOT MAKE OTHER CHANGES, INCLUDING TO THE CLIMATE CONTROL. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY AS THE SYNC 3 SYSTEM DOES NOT FUNCTION EITHER WAY. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE VEHICLE BUT I HAD TO ENTER A SINGLE DATE IN THE SYSTEM. I ASKED THE DEALER ABOUT THIS BUT THEIR RESPONSE WAS "DID YOU GET THE EXTENDED WARRANTY?".

DRIVING OUT MY DRIVE WAY MY STEERING FROZE UP ON ME.

WIPERS WILL NOT SHUT OFF AFTER WIPER SWITCH IS TURNED TO OFF. THE WIPERS CONTINUE TO WIPE AT A LOW INTERMITTENT SPEED.

I WENT TO DRIVE INTO MY GARAGE AND PUSHED THE BRAKE TO STOP AND THE PEDDLE WENT TO THE FLOOR. I PUSHED AS HARD AS I COULD AND IT FINALLY STOPPED JUST BEFORE I HIT THE BACK OF THE GARAGE. IT ALSO HAPPENED THEN I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY GARAGE. SAME THING HAPPENED WHEN I WAS ON THE ROAD IN TRAFFIC. I WAS GOING SLOW AT THE TIME. SOMETIMES THE BRAKE WILL BE VERY STIFF TO PUSH ALSO. THE PEDDLE WILL BARELY DEPRESS. LIKE THERE IS NO POWER BRAKES. NO WARNING LIGHTS COME ON IN ANY OF THESE SITUATIONS. THERE IS NO WARNING AT ALL. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED.

TOOK TRUCK FOR REGULAR SERVICE AND ADVISED THAT THEY COULD NOT ROTATE TIRES. LUG NUTS ARE OF A FLAWED DESIGN THAT SWELL DUE TO HEAT, MOISTURE ETC. DEALER MENTIONED THAT I SHOULD BUY REPLACEMENTS FROM AN AUTO STORE AS FORD IS STILL SELLING THE SAME DEFECTIVE LUG NUTS. ISSUE IS SO COMMON THAT SERVICE DEPT SAID FORD ACTUALLY ENGINEERED AND SENT A SPECIALIZED TOOL TO DEALERS TO REMOVE THESE DEFECTIVE PARTS. ADVISED THAT IN THE EVENT OF A FLAT TIRE, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO CHANGE DUE TO LUG NUTS SWELLING AND TOOL NOT FITTING. NOT ONLY ARE CUSTOMERS ON THE HOOK FOR $200+, BUT ALSO POSSIBLE TOWING FEES FOR A NON-MECHANICAL, ROUTINE ISSUE.

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT STARTED LEAKING WATER INTO CAB WHICH RAN DOWN UNDER CARPET ON DRIVER SIDE CAUSING MOLD AND MILDEW INSIDE CAB WHICH IS A VERY BAD HEALTH RISK FOR PEOPLE I CANT EVEN DRIVE IT BECAUSE OF THE MOLD SMELL HAVE TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE CARPET

IN TANK FUEL PUMP WENT OUT AT 60,000 MILES.

WAS PARKING MY TRAILER AND HAD UNHOOKED IT GO IN TO MOVE IT FORWARD SO I COULD PUT MY TRAILER LOCK ON LEFT THE DOOR OPEN LIKE I HAVE DONE COUNTLESS TIMES PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND GOT OUT STARTED TO WALK BACK WHEN THE ENGINE ACCELERATED AND THE TRUCK STARTED TO MOVE BACKWARDS TURNED TO JUMP IN TO HIT THE BREAK WHEN THE DOOR KNOCKED ME DOWN THE FRONT TIRE HIT MY KNEE AND LEG AND THE DOOR CAUGHT A POST RIPPING IT FORWARD

STEERING STARTED TO GET TIGHT WHILE TURNING, THIS WOULD ONLY HAPPEN PERIODICALLY. THEN WHILE I WAS EXITING A FREEWAY WHILE PULLING A TRAILER I LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND ALMOST WRECKED, THE ADVANCETRAC SERVICE LIGHT AND THE ELECTRONIC STEERING LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO A SERVICE CENTER TO FIND OUT THE FRONT RACK ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, TRUCK IS 2 1/2 YEARS OLD AND HAS 77,000 MILES.

TAILGATE OPENS BY ITSELF. HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AT LEAST ONCE (THAT I KNOW OF BECAUSE I HAVE A BED CAP ON THAT HAS HELD IT IN PLACE). THE ONE TIME I NOTICED IT I WAS TOWING A TRAILER AND WAS FORTUNATE THAT THE TAILGATE DID NOT GET WEDGED BETWEEN THE TRAILER JACK ON A TURN. I HAVE NOW NOTICED THAT THE TAILGATE WILL OPEN AND THE LATCH MECHANISM WILL CONTINUE TO FIRE EVEN AFTER THE TAILGATE IS DOWN,

REAR DEFOGGER ON SLIDING REAR WINDOW HAS BECOME COMPLETELY DISCONNECTED. POOR DESIGN. WHEN AUTOMATICALLY OPENING SLIDING REAR WINDOW, THE DEFOGGER MECHANISM GETS CAUGHT ON REAR SEAT EVENTUALLY, THIS LEAD TO THE REAR DEFOGGER DISCONNECTING AND BREAKING OFF FROM HIS HOUSING.

THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT WILL NOT RETRACT ON IT'S ON. THE PASSENGER HAS TO PUT THE SEAT BELT ON AND THEN MANUALLY PUSH THE SEAT BELT IN AND THEN LEAN FORWARD FOR IT TO LOCK IN PLACE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY

BRAKES FAILED AND IT IS RELATED TO THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND MASTER CYLINDER. HAVE TO REPLACE BOTH AT A COST OF $1500. MY UNDERSTANDING IS FORD IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BUT HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM.

THE DOORS (ESPECIALLY FRONT DRIVER SIDE) OFTEN DO NOT LATCH SHUT WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW FREEZING. THE LATCH MECHANISM APPEARS TO BE FREEZING. IF ONE DOESN'T REALIZE THE DOOR IS NOT FULLY LATCHED, IT MAY SWING OPEN WHILE ON THE ROAD. I HAD TO HOLD THE DOOR WITH ONE HAND IN ORDER TO PREVENT THE DOOR FROM SWINGING OPEN. I WILL BE BRINGING THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER FOR THE 18N03 RECALL DESPITE THE FACT THAT MANY OTHER F150 OWNERS STATE THAT THIS DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM IN MANY CASES.

I GOT UP STARTED MT TRUCK DROVE TO WORK AS NORMAL. GOT INTO MY TRUCK AFTER WORK STARTED IT AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE TRUCK WAS DIGGING MULTIPLE TIMES. THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN PRESSED WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I GOT OUT POPPED THE HOOD AND LOOKED THERES FLUID IN THE BRAKE RESERVOIR. I LOOKED ON THE GROUND AND ON THE MOTOR FOR LEAKAGE AND THERES NOTHING ANYWHERE.

TRUCK HAS RE-OCCURRING FREQUENT EPISODES OF CENTER CONTROL PANEL DOES NOT FUNCTION - WHEN THIS OCCURS- RADIO DOES NOT WORK - NO HEATER -WINDOW DEFROSTER OR A.C / WINDOWS CAN NOT BE ROLLED UP OR DOWN - AIR BAG INDICATOR IS NOT WORKING - SO DON'T KNOW IF THE AIR BAGS WOULD DEPLOYED IF AN ACCIDENT SHOULD OCCUR .THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO 1 DEALER WHICH SAID IT WAS A SOFT WEAR ISSUE AND CLAIMED TO FIX IT .. LASTED LESS THAN 50 MILES AND BACK TO SQUARE ONE ,, SITTING AT THE SECOND DEALER WHICH STATES IT NOT DOING IT NOW ,, SO COME AND PICK IT UP , THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTICS AND NO DEFAULT CODES WERE FOUND . THIS IS NOT RESOLVING THE ISSUE . IF YOU CANT TELL ME WHAT YOU DID TO FIX IT ..THE ISSUE REMAINS UNRESOLVED .. A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ALL OCCUPANTS IN THE CAB OF THE TRUCK .. IF THE AIR BAGS FAIL TO DEPLOY BECAUSE OF THE ISSUE STATED IN THIS COMPLAINT IS NOT ADDRESSED BY THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY.. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE FORD RELATIONSHIP - PERSONNEL - AND NOW AWAITING FOR A CALL FROM THE REGIONAL OFFICER ...THE TRUCK IS STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY AND FORD IS REQUIRED TO FULFILL THERE OBLIGATION TO THE CONSUMER AND FIX DEFAULT PRODUCT..

MY WIFE LEFT WORK AROUND 445 PM ON 12/27/18, WHEN SHE STARTED THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD (INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ALONE WITH THE RADIO DISPLAY) DO NOT COME ON(TOTAL BLACKOUT), THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME(2 TIMES PRIOR TO THIS DATE) THIS HAS HAPPEN TO HER BUT WE HAVE NOTICE THIS OCCURRING DURING COLD WEATHER PERIODS. SO MY WIFE DROVE ABOUT 4 MILES THINKING THE LIGHT WOULD COME ON, WHICH THEY DID NOT, SO SHE PULLED INTO A BUSINESS PARKING LOT, PARKED THE VEHICLE AND TURN IT OFF FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES. SHE THEN TURNED ON THE VEHICLE AT WHICH TIME ALL THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON.

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.

I WAS SITTING IN MY TRUCK I HAD STARTED IT TURNED HEAT ON AS IT WAS 40 DEGREES OUT. WAS REPLYING TO A TEXT MESSAGE SO WE HADN'T EVEN MOVED WHEN NOT 5MIN AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE I HEAR A LOUD BANG AND SMELT ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL AND THANKFULLY THE WINDOWS DIDN'T COMPLETELY SHATTER AND FALL OUT ON MY CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT, BUT BOTH PANELS ON EACH SIDE OF THE SLIDING WINDOW WERE COMPLETELY CRACKED AND SHATTERING.
