Windshield washers freeze up and become inoperable when temperature drops below 32F even when using rain-X. even if they thaw out from engine warm up they can refreeze within a few miles of driving when the temperature is below 32F. This is dangerous when the windshield washers fail during periods of snow and road slush if below freezing because the windshield can not be cleaned.

While entering freeway, I attempted to open sunroof (panoramic dual panel) and hear a loud bang followed by terrible grinding and cracking noises. As the glass panel retracted, a piece of plastic from the tracks shot out and struck me in the head while driving. After exiting the freeway I tried to close the sunroof. It would close about 80%, stop, then fully retract. Due to rain, I immediately went to dealer to get the roof looked at. Ford dealer was able to get the sunroof to the vent position and diagnosed broken tracks.

We remote started the truck to let it warm up before heading off to school. Our oldest child grabbed his backpack and loaded up in his seat and said he smelled something burning in the back seat of the truck. Right after that he heard a loud popping sound and the back window of the truck shattered. If this had happened on the highway my kids could have been covered in glass. I believe the rear glass overheated and busted the window. Luckily the vehicle was parked at the time under our carport and not in motion and the overheat did not result in a fire.

Doors do no open, freeze shut in cold weather or doors will not latch/lock if they open at all. This is a known issue with Ford and had been unsuccessfully addressed in technical service bulletins (tsbs) issued by Ford. There needs to be a permanent solution. Also the windshield washer sprayer freezes regularly. This is also a know issue that has not been resolved. It is dangerous to operate a vehicle when the windshield cannot be cleared of road spray, obscuring vision,
