While driving at less than the posted speed limit, we heard an explosion from on top of the vehicle. saw glass pieces sliding off roof. upon visual inspection we saw the vista sunroof had exploded. the glass exploded along the perimeter of the retractable sunroof. the center of the glass was still intact and there was no visible sign of impact. nothing hit the glass. given the perimeter glass damage, it appears the glass was compressed inward somehow. this is a vehicle defect. *tr

Vehicle equipped with myford touch system. system controls heating/defrosting system. this system has failed to operate properly on multiple occasions. ford motor company is aware of issue and has not corrected it. ford should not be allowed to market vehicles that do not have properly functioning heating/defrosting controls. these vehicles are dangerous and the issue is well know by internet searches. people rely on vehicles to operate properly in winter conditions. this needs to be addressed. thank you for your help. *tr
