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.

Visibility/Wiper
If driving in a very slight drizzle or mist, the wipers do not operate properly in the intermittent mode or single swipe operation. The wipers wipe the moisture off, then stick, or stutter and jump on the return. At highway speed wind gets under the wiper when it jumps and causes a hard slap against the windshield. This is dangerous as visibility is impaired - particularly dangerous at night in a slight rain.…

Wipers lock on each other & stops, making for very dangerous conditions when raining very much. In motion, every time it rains !!!

First malfunction experience (november 2, 2017): i was driving on local streets at around 40 mph in steady but light rain. While using the windshield wipers in manual mode (pushing down on the multi-function stalk), the wipers stopped working. I tried several times without any success, so i tried pushing the stalk up to use the wipers on intermittent or faster speeds. That did not work either. I pulled off to the…

Rear (fixed) window of the panoramic moon roof spontaneously cracked in a jagged oval shape approximately 1 foot in length without any impact or other vehicles nearby while driving at about 40 mph. I have read a few other complaints where the glass cracked and shattered into the vehicle compartment under the same or similar circumstances.

Windshield wipers stop randomly while being used or when turning them on. Moving the lever up and down on the steering wheel sometimes gets them working again. Other times the car has to be turned off and restarted.
