    My wife and i were driving down the street in april and turned on the rear defrost and heat because it was chilly outside. Within minutes, the rear passenger window shattered outward, startling us and almost causing us to have an accident. We feel ford should recall all 2011 f-150s to replace the rear defrost, which is obviously defective, and replace every rear window that shattered because of this defect.

    When pulling out of a parking lot the instrument cluster lcd goes black, assisted power steering stops working making it hard to steer. Then after a few seconds comes back on and steering rapidly corrects to current position. So far has mostly happened during the first few minutes after running. So far this has only happened once while driving on the highway during a straight stretch.

I called ford and they said that they had no information on this problem,…

    Rear glass shattered due to rear defrost shorting out. Started truck after some freezing rain and turned on the rear defrost. Started to go down the road and about 10 mins later on the highway i hear what sounded like a shot gun blast. The glass had shattered but was still in place. I taped it up. I do not have the money to replace this. This is a design flaw that could cause a serious accident.

    My truck vibrates when driving. I've checked the fuel injectors, coil packs, gotten a tune up and it still does the same. I've had several mechanics (certified) pull codes and it keeps saying it is the coil packs (which ive replaced, no change). I was also told the truck had a short and for would have to take engine apart. Still don't know what the problem is!
