Description of the problem | I am filing this complaint due the number of documented occurrences of sun roofs cracking or exploding on ford fusion and other ford branded vehicles. On 9/1/2017 while opening the sun roof heard pop sound. The sun roof opened about 5 inches. I returned it to the closed position and found the sun roof cracked in a rectangular pattern across the entire glass. The car had been parked from 9:00 am pst until 5:00 pm pst at my work site with all 4 windows cracked about 1/2 to 1 inch. As well i noticed that on the backseat driver side the head liner had detached from roof and below weather stripping. Attempted to push it back up but it will not stay after the sunroof cracked. Entering the car i rolled all windows down, turned on ac which was set at 64 degrees and then attempted to open the sun roof before driving off. All windows and open sun roof was to help evacuate warm air that remained in the car as it was parked during the day. Currently the car has 9961 miles on the odometer. Care is driven about 6 miles monday - friday from my home to work and back. |
