Warning about rear window defrosters!!

[KTM RAPTOR]

Whole assembly requires replacement unfortunately.

I wonder how bad things might get with the new design as one solid piece of glass across the back (sans center slider). Instead of just panels of glass being replaced, people will have to replace the whole rear window on the newer models... if shatter occurs.

The whole rear assembly has to come out even if one panel cracks/shatterson on these trucks.. Learned the hard way. Thankfully I was still under warranty at the time.

Sorry to burst your bubble GearTripper!

I use mine all the time to have it so it fires up with the remote start also with no problems.

Same thing happened to my 2010 I we'll be removing the wire to the button when the job is completed so no one is able to activate it I was given no explanation to why this keeps happening and I have done research and it has happened to standard f150 as Long as it's the three pieace window

Just a suggestion but...pre-heat the interior with the heater prior to engaging the heat strips. Same thing happens in aircraft if window heat is applied to extremely cold glass. Should keep it from happening until a fix comes along. Of course this won't help if its happening in normal temps.
