The windshield, roof recall went out last nite.

We should be clear. There's no requirement for you to have them do the work on the windshield. A recall isn't required work.

that's very true, BUT with two open safety recalls if you try to sell the car say two years from now, how will that affect the trade in/sale offer. I'm inclined to leave it and not have it done.

It won’t because the new owner can have the recalls done just as easily.

I called my local dealer (Liberty Ford Brunswick) today to schedule the windshield and roof re-seal, as well as the PAAK update.

The manager handling recall issues told me that I would be receiving a letter in the mail with the next steps, and that I should wait for it to arrive before moving on...

Do we think the windshield and the glass roof in the recalls is using the same adhesive as the side badging logos that were falling off? lol

Ah, a good reason to trade in for a GTPE, also I donot have to wait for blue cruse.

It will only affect trade in value, something I've never done. I sell mine to private parties. I give them all of the documentation including recalls and let them decide if they want to do it.

Why would it affect trade-in value?

Perhaps a dealer can't sell a vehicle with open recalls? So they'd have the hassle of arranging to have them done.

Okay, but that doesn’t happen.

Definitely giving dealers too much credit lol.

How did they do it . Did they do a good job or mess up your paint job or interior

It was done perfectly. I can't find any fault with the job whatsoever. I'm pretty sure it was subbed out to an autoglass company.

I just got my notification for both recalls yesterday as well. I called the dealership to schedule the repair but apparently Ford Canada hasn't provided the information how the parts/procedures to do the repair.

 

[Cm12]

And they haven't.

But there’s enough concern that they could that Ford is spending how much money to replace them? I guess you’re right though, Ford is probably just throwing away all that money just to annoy Mach E owners.

Oh, is that what I said? I must have blacked out because I don’t remember that.

Both recalls came through on my (crappy) Fordpass app about a week ago. I called my local dealer and asked if I needed to wait for a letter in the mail, and they said "No - we see it here in the computer, so we can schedule the work". I asked directly if they subbed out glass work, and was told that yes, they do - so I guess that's good. ** Does anyone have the actual Ford repair procedures for these recalls? I'm hoping that the auto glass place is clearly instructed NOT to remove the pano roof!
