Aviator 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 55,000 miles
The contact owns a 2003 Lincoln Aviator. The contact stated that the rear hatch has a huge vertical crack. She does not know how the crack appeared. Through online research, she discovered many Aviators that were experiencing the same failure. The contact believes the failure may be due to a manufacturer defect. The battery continued to fail and she is unsure if it is a result of the hatch not being able to close completely because of where the crack is located. The crack is located near the Lincoln emblem. Lincoln referred her to NHTSA. The failure mileage was 55,000 and the current mileage was 60,500. Updated 01/17/08 updated 01/17/08
