Rear window suddenly shattered while driving. No other vehicles around. Entire windshield shattered and pieces are now falling into back hatch area. There were no passengers with me at the time. This renders the car not safe to drive. I was pulling into my driveway but had I been out on the highway (In January) this would soon become an issue of exposure to below freezing temperatures. Ford claims they have never heard of this when I-??m finding other reports of this happening online. Dealership is saying it-??s replaced at all my cost also " Seems like a manufacturing fault " There is a FSA # [XXX] that Canadian owners have listed. My car originally was sold in North Dakota. Currently I-??m in Nebraska. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Back windshield - not available for inspection as I have had it repaired already. Back windshield shattered/exploded sounded like a balloon being blown up too much and then popped - hazard to when someone is physically driving the vehicle and has no idea what just happened Inspected by insurance reps No warnings besides at the time it happened I heard a strange blowing noise After glass broke and was replaced multiple shards of glass jammed the trunk lock making it unable to be opened from outside or inside. Had to have dealership replace plastic trim and lock also after glass was repaired by safelite

Rear Windshield Shattered due to no cause, no impact, nothing. I was just driving down the road to town and it just Popped and shattered. I could not see out the rear window and pieces kept falling from the bottom of window. It was very unsafe to drive the car with the windshield shattered like this. NO quick fix, no available glass on the island and working right now to try to get it repaired. It happened today, 7/31/21.
