Radio/tape Cd Player problems of the 2012 Ford F-150

Just had my 2012 f150 fx4 super crew appearance package rear window shatter. Last night my truck is sitting all by its self on a flat surface I hit the automatic start as I'm walking out to my truck it's about 22 deg f out I hear this loud pop didn't know what it was then in the morning I noticed my right rear window was shattered. Hopefully Ford will cover this if not there's a chance my aftermarket warranty will or I will file a collision claim through my insurance. The seames to be an ongoing problem with these trucks and Ford should take the responsibility to correct it. I love my f150 have had it since brand new it's been great up until now besides the radio modular need replaced when it was just over a year old. Warranty took care of that no problem.

I started my 2012 F-150 and activated the front and rear defrosters. While idling in a driveway, I heard a loud pop, looked around and realized my passenger side rear windshield panel had shattered spider web style. Luckily I turned off the defroster in time and was able to duct tape the broken window. Unfortunately, tiny splinters of glass were already on my rear passenger seat, and I got some in my hands from taping it up. Thank god nobody was sitting in that seat. Temperature was low 40s, I was trying to get rid of a slight frost.

Very cold morning, 3/4/2012, vehicle started by remote at 5:30am. Approximately 10 minutes after starting, I went out, opened both driver side doors, put my gear in the back seat, closed the rear door, got in the driver seat , closed the door, put seat belt on, foot on the brake, moved console shift lever to r, when a very loud bang occurred. It sounded like a shotgun. I looked around but did not see anything. Thought it may have been a window, but could not tell with salt spray on windows and darkness. I drove roughly 12 miles, picked up a CO-worker who got in and asked immediately what happened to your rear window? I called my local dealer a short time later and was told to bring it in to be looked at. I could not do that until Saturday 3/8/14. When the dealer checked it out, they said they would contact Ford and that it would take 8-10 days for a determination. They seemed to be unaware of a larger problem than just my window. After researching on the web, I found that this problem is not uncommon in this model and year. On Monday 3/10/14 after work, I got in my truck, only to have most of the glass fall out when I closed my door. It would have been nice if the dealer had taped the glass , I thought it was laminated. Because I now had a big hole in window, I stopped at a glass company, to see how soon they could replace it, with rain and snow predicted for midweek. When they called to check availability, they were told that there were none available, that there was a problem w/ the driver's side blowing out. I believe that Ford has known this for quite some time, as evidenced by web blogs documenting the problem and Ford's delay or denial in taking care of the problems. Some complaints have stated that children were in the rear seat at the time of the implosion. I would think that anyone exposed to the noise that it makes could be subject to hearing loss. Recall ?.
