AS I WAS DRIVING TO WORK THIS MORNING WITH MY REAR DEFROST ON - MONDAY 10-21-2019 AROUND 7:30 AM ON THE SAME HWY I TAKE EVERYDAY, I NOTICE SMOKE COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE BACK WINDSHIELD, AS THINK IN MY MIND WHAT THE HELL I NEED TO PULL OVER TO CHECK IT OUT, ALL OF A SUDDEN A LOUD BOOM GOES OFF AND MY BACK PASSENGER SIDE WINDSHIELD EXPLODES..AFTER COLLECTING MYSELF I STOP TO CHECK IT OUT AND NOTICE WHERE THE SMOKE IS COMING FROM, AS I'M LOOKING AT MY BACK GLASS I NOTICE THE SMOKE IS COMING FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD AROUND THE RUBBER GASKET, IT WAS LITERALLY MELTING. I ALSO HAVE A VIDEO WHERE YOU CAN HEAR THE CRACKING/ MELTING OF THE BACK WINDSHIELD

THE TWO DRIVESHAFTS THAT CONNECT TOGETHER WITH THE CENTER BOOT BROKE APART WHILE DRIVING. LUCKILY WHEN THIS HAPPENED I WAS ONLY TRAVELING 3 MILES AN HOUR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, EITHER HAVE A ONE PIECE DRIVE SHAFT OR THE SLEEVE SHOULD BE BETTER SECURED. I FEEL THAT IF THIS HAD HAPPENED WHILE I WAS TRAVELING ON THE EXPRESSWAY, MY FAMILY AND OTHERS COULD HAVE BEEN IN SERIOUS DANGER

TAKATA RECALL: MY 2010 FORD RAPTOR WITH THE 6.2L MOTOR HAS BEEN HAVING A WRENCH LIGHT COME ON AND I HAVE HAD TWO QUOTES STATING THE NEUTRAL POSITION SENSOR OR TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR IS BAD. I'VE NOTICED THAT MANY RECALLS HAVE BEEN MADE ON THE FORD F-150 MODELS STARTING IN 2011-2014. WITH MY VEHICLE BEING PRODUCED MID YEAR OF 2010. I FEEL MY VEHICLE IS PART OF THAT RECALL. BUT DOESN'T SHOW IN ANY SYSTEMS. MY VEHICLE WILL STAY STUCK IN A CERTAIN GEAR OR NOT START AT ALL. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGH WAY AND THE VEHICLE WILL SHIFT DOWN TO FIRST GEAR WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STILL IN DRIVE WHILE GOING 60MPH. IT MAKES THE VEHICLE REACH REDLINE ON RPMS AND HARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE.
