Description of the problem | From date of purchase to 9/24/14 i noticed cloudy blotches and streaks varying in number and size according to the direction looking and type of day on the rear window. At first i thought the window just had not been cleaned well. Looking through the rear view mirror these areas affect the drivers visual field by distorting and distracting the driver view. The ford mechanic verified seeing this & notified ford dealer hot line who also verified this issue was present. Also that this issue occurs during the tempering process of the glass & that there was no fix for this issue. I feel that a huge safety issue is present due to this issue which affects visual field of drivers & because it is impossible to get use to it because the blotches & streaks change continually according to type of day from sunny to cloudy or direction driving in or just how u might be looking at it. |
