Explorer 8-cyl

  • 101,000 miles
While driving 15mph, I heard a loud noise from the back of the vehicle. Upon examination, after I pulled over, I found the rear window on the liftgate hanging by only the lift supports. The plastic hinges that are supposed to hold the window in place seem to be corroded and cracked in the middle. If someone had been standing there when it happened or if I had been driving on the expressway, someone could have been greatly injured.
