While driving on hwy 2 in wenatchee, wa at 5pm on october 2, 2019 my sunroof exploded. The sunroof was closed at the time. There were no overpasses or cars near me when this happened. The weather was partly cloudy and around 72 degrees. I was driving approximately 60 mph.

No set time the brakes fails. Goes to the floor instead of stopping and it doesn't matter what rate of speed you're traveling. Even after thinking ford fixed it i almost got into an accident because the brakes failed. Ford fixed it by doing a flush, cost charged me a lot of money for nothing or they don't know what they're doing.

The windshield wipers on my ford edge stay on at all times when the vehicle is turned on. This caused my windshield wiper to fly off and break. This is a safety hazard and very disturbing while driving. I had to put a towel on the metal part to go back home to keep the metal from scraping and ruining my windshield.

Door ajar light stays on even when door is closed. This keeps dome lights on and side mirror lights along with the doors not locking which is a secure/safety issue. Also the fact that the dome light can blind the driver at night and this runs the battery down. Ford dealerships say its a known defect for new and used vehicles and i opened up a case with ford and they refuse to offset the costs to fix it. They just…

Door ajar light comes on when door is obviously closed. It can take up to 10-15 slams to get the light to go off. Annoying alert tone goes off until it's closed and dome light stays on. Also, car will not lock if door does not register as closed. This problem has persisted for over a year, but oddly goes away during the winter months. Just now, my windsheild wipers won't turn off. I don't know if these issues are…
