Ford is only testing / validating with their supplierâs glass, the same way they configure the engine tune, etc.. So, if you had a busted windshield and came into a stealership with an aftermarket windshield and your affected systems were not working, you may well end up having to buy another...

Generally speaking, if you ever have to invoke the lemon law from your state, if a loaner is provided or coverage for a rental is offered, the time the car is âdownâ for repairs wonât count towards the âtriggeringâ time value in the statute. IOW, letâs say your...
