There is a design defect in the front parking sensors where after freezing, water can enter the opening of parking sensor and short circuit the wiring harness causing the parking aid system to fault. This prevents the driver from utilizing this key safety feature when parking or being alerted on their close proximity of surrounding objects.
Rear window on lift gate exploded while the vehicle was sitting in the driveway. Side door was opened to the vehicle, and then the back window blew out. This caused small glass pieces to fall inside and outside the vehicle.
Just leased this 2016 Ford Explorer. It has 700 miles on it. We have not made a payment. I was driving down the road at about 30 miles per hour. Nobody was within a mile of me. I was alone in the car. The rear window exploded. I got out and checked the window. It clearly had exploded outward. There was no external source to cause the window to explode. I am a police officer, and have seen where windows explode or are smashed. The window will take a slight indent or poof outward from the force. In this case, the window was poofed outward. There was also a faint order in the car afterward. It almost smelled like the material from airbags, though clearly no airbag had deployed. I don't know if that was from the shattered glass or not.
