    Just noticed a large crack develop in the panoramic sunroof - front panel. Unfortunately i do not remember the exact date. The crack started small and spread into different cracks covering a good portion of the sunroof. No evidence of rock or impact. Cracks appear to be stress related though i am not an expert. Called ford dealer and was informed this is not covered as vehicle is out of warranty. My vehicle is a…

    While driving at approximately 25 mph near my home, i heard a loud noise on the roof of the vehicle. I pulled over to see if something struck the roof. Nothing on the ground at all. When i got home, i got on a ladder to inspect the roof. The rear glass panel was cracked all over. My insurer stated it was struck by a foreign object. I went online to carguru and found hundreds of complaints about the roof glass…

    Power lift gate will not open sometimes. You have to go to the computer, disable the liftgate and enable the liftgate. Sometimes you have to do it twice. Found the temp fix on google. My ford dealer knows nothing about the problem.

    The stationary part of my vista glass sunroof cracked. There is no sign of impact and it looks like a stress crack. Ford is not willing to replace it because i am 1 month outside the 3 yr warranty window. I looked online and i see that there are many others with this same cracking issue.

    Hands free liftgate is dangerous. While putting groceries in back and rearranging things i triggered the hands free liftgate. The gate did not stop coming down when i tried to stop it with my hand as it was closing. I got out of the way as it slammed shut. The gate does not respond when an object is put in its path, like a garage door does. It needs to! My 83 year old mother had the same thing happen to her (she has…

    Sunroof glass cracked for no apparent reason. One day it was fine, next day it was cracked. I took to ford dealer and they told me $1,000 to repair and that they use 3rd party to repair. My car is still under warranty, but they said it is not covered. I did research and many others having the exact same issue.

    The rear window of my edge exploded with no one in the vehicle'. My wife remote started the car, then later she went out to get the newspaper and go shopping when she noticed glass on the ground behind the car. Thinking it was vandalized we called the police. Upon the patrolman's examination he noted that it looks like it was broken from the inside! I agreed. The vehicle was parked in my driveway and was locked.

    My husband was driving when he opened the sun visor. I looked and thought there was ice on the sunroof because of the strange swirl pattern. It is not cold enough to have ice like that where i live. My husband says look its cracked. The panoramic sunroof cracked in a swirled pattern. I took the car to a professional auto glass place and the repair guy said he did not see any spots where there would be impact. So i…

    My sunroof has cracked 4 times. There multiple wavy cracks all over the windows. It has been replaced 3 times and after the third roof, it was cracked again within a month. My dealer will not fully cover this roof. I am told that it is from rock chips but honestly believe there is a defect in the glass or possibly the frame to cause the cracks. Once i get a new glass, it is cracked again within a month. I am worried…

    I'm experiencing what many, many other ford super duty truck owners have been experiencing since about 2005 commonly known as the "death wobble". At speeds above 45 miles per hour, when the truck goes across a rough (washboard) bit of road or a bridge joint, the front end sometimes shakes violently which also causes the steering wheel to shake violently until you can bring the vehicle to a stop, which is not easy.…
