Explorer Eddie Bauer V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 40,000 miles

tonight i was opening the rear lift window when it suddenly exploded. In searching the internet i have found that many have found this window cracked . Now I will never know!! tomorrow I am taking it to the dealer who actually did something to this possibly in 2002 as part of a recall. I do not recall the reason behind the recall but suspicious that this may be related. My car is out of warranty but cannot attribute this to wear and tear. My car is always in the garage and protected from the weather extremes. I am curious to this having had with other SUV lift windows
