See attached document for complaint. I am the owner of the 2015 MKT that has a recall noted above. The rearview camera went out completely several months ago. Only a black screen would appear then the vehicle was in reverse. I saved money to get the camera into working order. On 09/29/2025 I took the vehicle to Weymouth Truck and Auto, and requested they get the camera into working condition. Weymouth installed a new camera system. I picked up the vehicle on 10/02/2025. The camera is working fine. I paid $949.81 for the new camera system. A copy of the paid invoice is enclosed. In light of the recall notice, I respectfully request a reimbursement of $949.81.

Front Sunroof Exploded while driving. No one was around me nor was it bad weather. I had glass flying everywhere off the car and down the side which could have caused the paint to be scratched and or if someone would have been around me, they would have been hit with flying glass. My entire drive home the glass was falling into the liner and down the side of the car. The car has been sitting at the dealership undriveable. You could hear it crackling even after sitting in the garage for a period of time. The glass was dropping down on the liner and could have shattered all over the interior and the passengers had the liner not been closed. It could have also caused you to crash as it sounds like someone shot out a window when it happens. I was able to pull over alongside the road and asses the damages after calming down a bit. The same day I took my car down there someone else in a ford edge had a cracked sunroof There were no prior warnings on the car to let me know of a problem and there was nothing around me at the time it exploded. the car is in perfect condition and taken care of very well. It only has 33,000 miles on it and is always garaged. I have read many articles with those experiencing the same thing with the same car and same window. I also found several posts of suits filed against Ford / Lincoln for this very same issue. The dealership did research it and agreed it is a known problem, but a recall never issued. They did contact Lincoln on my behalf, and they have denied the claim. I have seen many articles where this has happened within the first couple months to a couple years out, but it is always the front sunroof. there is clearly a design problem with the car, and it needs to be addressed. This is a situation where a crash could have been caused, or someone seriously injured inside the car because of a defective design in the sunroof of Lincoln's MKT

2015 LINCOLN MKT HAS HAD TWO FORWARD SUNROOFS SHATTER SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN JULY OF 2017. THE FIRST OCCURRED WHEN A STONE KICKED FROM A TRUCK TIRE STRUCK IT. BUT THE SECOND INCIDENT OCCURRED WITH NO SUCH TRAFFIC AROUND MY VEHICLE. THE GLASS SHATTERED AS I HEARD TWO LOUD CRACKS WITHIN ABOUT 5 SECONDS OF ONE ANOTHER. AGAIN, I OBSERVED NO TRAFFIC THAT WOULD LIKELY BE THE SOURCE OF A THROWN STONE, AND INDEED, OBSERVED NO OBJECTS INBOUND TO STRIKE MY VEHICLE. THE NATURE OF THE SECOND SUN ROOF'S BREAK LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THERE IS A SEVERE DEFECT IN THE REPLACEMENT SUN ROOF (PRESUMABLY SOURCED FROM FORD/LINCOLN, GIVEN IT'S EXPENSE AND THE TIME REQUIRED TO ACQUIRE IT).
VEHICLE WAS ON I-78 ON A CLEAR DAY WITH A TEMPERATUE OF 75 DEGREES AT A SPEED OF LESS THAN 70 MPH, NO BRIDGES, NO ROUGH PAVEMENT. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE FIXED PANORAMIC ROOF (FORWARD PANEL) SHATTERED CAUSED A LOUD BANG. SOUNDED LIKE A TIRE BLEW OUT! NO EVIDENCE OF A ROCK OR OTHER MATERIAL STRIKING THE PANEL, NO BODY DAMAGE, JUST THE ROOF PANEL. LUCKILY WE HAD THE SUN SHADE PANEL CLOSED SO WE DIDN'T EXPERIENCE ANY GLASS SHARDS FALLING ON US.
WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET, THE FRONT SECTION OF THE MOON ROOF EXPLODED WITH A LOUD BANG AND CREATED A CRACK IN THE GLASS FROM SIDE TO SIDE. ON THE DRIVE HOME OTHER CRACKS DEVELOPED ALONG THE DRIVER SIDE EDGE. TOOK IT TO A DEALER THE FOLLOWING DAY AND WAS TOLD TO "CALL YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY!". ON THE WAY HOME FROM THE DEALER THE ROOF SHATTERED. CALLED FORD AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER GLASS.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE PARKWAY A LOUD EXPLOSION NOISE OCCURRED; GLASS FROM THE SUNROOF CAME INTO THE VEHICLE. NO VEHICLES WERE IN FRONT OF ME. THE FRONT PORTION OF THE SUNROOF HAD A GAPING HOLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF A ROCK OR BULLET AS THE REASON FOR THE INCIDENT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 LINCOLN MKT. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, A LOUD ABNORMAL SOUND WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE PANORAMIC SUN ROOF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SUN ROOF FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 6,000.
WE ARE A LIMOUSINE SERVICE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, THE GLASS ROOF EXPLODED FOR NO REASON, NO OTHER VEHICLE WERE AROUND.
