My Ford Edge Sun Roof Glass Cracked

Sunroof cracked while driving on the highway in more than one place.

My ford edge sun roof glass cracked.

Insurance has had to replace twice. I disagreed because there are cracks throughout the entire glass and they do not intersect with the alleged point of impact. Ford has denied claim. The ford models with the highest number of reports and vulnerability to broken or exploding sunroofs are the ford focus fusion explorer flex f 150 mustang c max and most prominently the ford edge.

Additionally these sunroofs contain ceramic paint from the tempered glass which has enamels that appear to weaken the sunroof glazing. Unlike several manufacturers that have issued safety recalls ford has not recalled its defective panoramic sunroofs a portion of the complaint reads. Average repair cost is 1 340 at 30 600 miles. In recent years in the edge model alone the ford motor company has independently reported at least 88 instances of sunroof explosions.

Ford has failed to meet these engineering challenges as is evidenced by its own panoramic sunroofs propensity to spontaneously shatter referred to herein as the defect. No exterior chips or damage. Ford claims the shattered sunroof is caused by outside objects hitting the glass but plaintiffs justify the ford exploding sunroof to compromising the compressed layer. How anything hit the top of the closed.

My 2017 ford edge sport s vista roof front glass has been replaced 2 times in the first 6 months of ownership due to cracking. Corsi says one way to prevent exploding sunroofs might be to use a hybrid glass that. A chip at that edge can make the glass vulnerable to failure which with tempered glass means an explosion.
