I started my truck with "remote start" to warm up it up just a little before I got inside. (Truck was in the garage.) After I got my shoes on I got in the car after about 4-5 minutes. Hit the start button and started to pull out and the entire back window exploded. (I thought someone was shooting at me.) I could not figure out what happened but truck is clearly un-drivable now. Glad it happened while I wasn't on the road. This could have easily caused a wreck if I was in traffic. I googled the situation and noticed that there are a lot of complaints of this exact issue. Please see https://www.vehiclehistory.com/articles/all-about-the-ford-f-150-back-window-recalls. These comments sound just like my issue. I am assuming this has something to do with Remote Start (based on other comments) and the defrost of the back window. It is not just a small crack...it happened suddenly with a very loud bang. (Thought someone was shooting at me.) I called the dealership and they have convienantly never heard of this problem but recommended me to call customer care. I now have a case open with Ford but I don't have much hope based on all the other comments I have seen. (Ford said it would be 2-3 days before they can even get the part in.)
