The contact related the failure to the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 20V260000 (Visibility); however, the VIN was not included in the recall.

My Car has 136,000 miles on it. The vehicle's rear windshield glue failed. I noticed water in the car's trunk the other day thinking it was a cooler not a big deal. Every time a car door closed I kept hearing a weird thud. Driving down the road I would hear a thump from the rear. I thought the spare tire tightened it and that was not it. I closed my car door, looked back, and saw the rear glass lift significantly. I did it again and then looked back and saw the glass lift. I then went back and realized could lift the rear windshield glass. 90% of the top and bottom of the glass glue had failed or was not there anymore. The whole driver's side was not glued. The only thing holding the glass on was the passenger's side of the glass. This is a huge safety issue as the glass could have just flown out at high speeds if I had rolled my windows down or it could have shattered because of vibrations at speeds. You need to investigate the failure of the adhesive used to put on all Ford Fusions and all sedans to see if there should be a forced recall. It was a fluke I found it before the window blew out or just shattered because of a vibration. It could be catastrophic if a rear windshield shatters at high speeds or flies out at high speeds. I have never heard of an adhesive failure like this on a windshield. I think Ford has a huge issue with this problem that has not been investigated. I should never have to worry about my windshield flying out or shattering because it is no longer glued down. Sorry, I did not take pictures of it. It was such a safety concern I went directly to the nearest place and got the windscreen adhesive and fixed it.

Water is leaking into the trunk of our vehicle through the tail light assembly and soaking all the electrical wiring in the base of the trunk. The wheel well is becoming flooded with water. All the wiring going in and out of the trunk is soaking wet. If you Google this issue. Other Ford Fusion owners with older model vehicles and the same tail light assembly are having the exact same issue where water is coming into the trunk from the tail light assembly. This is clearly a design flaw and with water coming inside and covering the electrical system I want to believe this is major safety concern.

Just got this ford vehicle a couple months ago and for some reason my car wouldn't start. I ran a diagnostic and had numerous codes p0300, p0301, p0302, p0303, p0304, p0030, c0014, p0047, p0141, and a few others. I looked for loose wires, checked fuses, plugs etc. The only thing at this point I noticed was two cracked spark plugs, so I replaced all off them. After that the car started so I thought it was fixed. Closed the hood turned the car to off, then tried to start it again. It did not start. So I checked all the fluids and seen the antifreeze disappeared, I had previously filled it. I looked for any visible leaks, puddles, and checked for wet carpet and found nothing. I went and bought another large jug of antifreeze put it in and watched it all disappear before my eyes. I could not figure it out, but I got the car started and still continued to get massive error codes, white smoke, rough sound, etc. Then searched more and found it sounds like blown head gasket, I checked and the oil had a milky tint. This I then found was a recall for my vehicle, so I spoke with someone from ford on march 20, 2021 and they said they needed to check if my local ford dealership had the parts to get my car in or if they needed to order the parts. I was suppose to get a call back but have not heard anything. I have not been driving, I did use leak fix it seemed to stop the leak and clear the codes but my dash check engine light keeps flashing so I didn't want to cause further damage. The recall number I found was the federal safety agency id number: 10174400, my car is a 2015 ford fusion ecoboost 1.5l, VIN number# [xxx], and my local ford is in heath, ohio 43056 at mathews ford. I am getting the impression this is going to be at my cost after contacting ford again, now telling me that it will need diagnosed at ford, and may be at my cost. Why doesn't the recall list under my VIN? Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
