Defroster/defogger/hvac System Rear Window Electrical Heating Element problems of the 2013 Ford F-150

On my way to work I turned on the rear defrost and heard a loud bang after 15 minutes. I pulled over to see what had happened and the read driver side windshield pain had shattered. It remained in the laminate but I got a replacement quote and its almost $1000 dollars. After doing research this is a major problem with the defrost mechanism on these trucks with no known fix. I'm glad it stayed in take but the glass is continuously cracking as I drive and I cannot get the repair done until Thursday and the dealer said they can do nothing except replace the glass and hope it doesn't happen again.
