I have learned from a Ford maintenance person and many other Ford owners, that 1999 Ford F-150s, have leaky front windshields that cause shorts in the odometer and other electrical components (radio, etc.) The odometer still records miles (It is hard to convince a potential buyer of this fact). Ford will gladly repair their "manufacturer defect" for 600-1200 dollars. Why should the consumer pay for this repair!! This warrants a RECALL. If not we need to get all F-150 owners that have this problem and file a class action lawsuit!! I wonder if this leak has any affect on my airbags... How do I know if haven't been shorted out. What if the airbags don't deploy in an accident... Are there any F-150 accidents were the airbags didn't deploy?? I smell a bigger lawsuit here.... Looking for others in this same mess... In a perfect world, Ford would do the right thing and fix their defect... When I asked Ford to do the right thing... They told me to pack sand...
