2021 Ford Bronco Sport visibility complaints

My husband was driving down a mountain highway when suddenly he heard a loud noise. He pulled over and found the moonroof glass had shattered. There were no cars around and no signs that something had hit it—we think it was glass failure due to a pressure change. Ford has had issues with moonroof glass spontaneously shattering on other vehicles and there are a few reports online about it happening to other Bronco Sports. Ford will not take responsibility and says we need to file an insurance claim. This is a major safety issue—my husband could have been seriously injured if the moonroof cover had been open and glass had fell on him.
The contact owns a 2021 Ford Bronco Sport. The contact stated that she noticed a crack was formed at the bottom of the windshield. Upon taking the vehicle to a dealer for an oil change, the mechanic informed her that several cracks had formed at the bottom of the windshield. The mechanic also stated that there was an unknown recall for the failure; however, the VIN was not included. The contact stated that the cracks had expanded vertically on both sides of the windshield, obstructing the driver's vision. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 13,000.
A large crack in the windshield appeared out of nowhere. There was no injury to the windshield, no damage from a rock, etc. I got in my car one day after work and a large crack had appeared. I viewed company footage to see if something damaged my car, and there was nothing found. The crack appeared as a malfunction of defect of the car.
This car has had so many recalls on it and it does not stop. Gibbons Ford does not have windshield wiper clips; there is constant recalls on this car. What are my options?
The wind shields on these vehicles are cracking in abundance. My Bronco wind shield cracked on the passenger side from the edge across the window. No rock hit it. I just came out one morning and it was cracked. I've read many complaints on line from owners having this problem. Now you can't get new wind shields because there have been so many issues, they are on back order. I tried to contact Ford but they referred me to you. I do not believe this is normal.
My 2021 Bronco Sport has a stress crack in the windshield and it is very concerning because on the Facebook forum, I am seeing tons of Bronco Sport owners having the same issue. Some owners are on their 2nd to 4th windshield. Ford is not taking responsibility for this issue and is having owners submit to their auto insurance. I’m very concerned for the safety and integrity of the windshields that are being put in these vehicles. I’m getting mine replaced but how can I trust that it won’t happen again. I’m very scared that it will shatter while driving.
My engine light on again evap canister ford does not warnnety it. Need the oil recalled done but my ford dealer ship will not do it so running it with engine light on vo recalled done and wiper washer does not spray, can not get anything done by my ford dearler ship
The windshield is weak, I have 3 cracks and multiple divets within 6 months of purchase.
The windshield developed a crack down the center of the windshield starting at the top of the glass. There is no apparent indication that crack is due to an object hitting it.
While driving on interstate I noticed what seemed to be small gravel (sand like) hitting the vehicle. Then I heard the sound of the window cracking across from the lower drivers side to the center of the window. I never noticed anything striking the window. After stopping in a safe area I could see on the outside that something small had struck it. The windshield has been replaced by my insurance company and One week later I have already received one small chip. As with most people my age I’ve had numerous vehicles and have only had one other vehicle with a windshield that was as easily damaged and that would be a Jeep TJ. Many other people have been complaining on line about the same issue. Like Jeep Ford should be replacing the windshield with a better product.
Windshield is too thin and is prone to cracking very quickly. The windshield needs to be made out of thicker glass.
I live in northern Indiana where humidity is high in the summer. We often have nights with a low temperature in the 60s to low 70s, with heavy dew, and sometimes fog. I park the Bronco in the garage overnight, and the windows are clear in the morning. I go to work before sunrise. With the climate control (With: Manual Temperature Control) set for no, or low heat, and outside air, everything is fine till about 10 minutes into the drive. The air conditioner turns on (with no indication that it is on, except the ice cold air coming out of the vents). Then the windshield starts to fog up on the outside because of the high humidity outside and a cold windshield. There is now way to turn off the air conditioner, except to turn off the climate control. I have tried turning up the temperature control to compensate, only to have the air conditioner turn off after several minutes, then I get hot air, and it is a never-ending task to try to control this as the temperature from the vents goes up and down. When the windshield fogs up on the outside, the wipers can;t effectively clear it. This hassle is also distracting to the driver. I know of no reason to have a humidity sensor turn on the air conditioner. This was verified by the dealer that the humidity sensor is what is turning on the AC.
Had a rock hit my windshield in the lower left corner. It immediately started to crack approx 8". The next morning it grew to about 18+". I have heard that the glass used is thinner than most. I feel this is a major concern to the consumers as if any little thing may crack these windshields and have the customer shell out more money to have them replaced everytime. I feel safety is a factor as well, causing possible shattering, etc. Car is scheduled for a safelite replacement.
Stress fracture in windshield while it was sitting in a parking lot all day. Cameras on premises verified nothing hit the car.
