problem #1

Jan 242008

Mountaineer 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,840 miles
Crack in liftgate to the right of the Mercury emblem. On January, 24, 2008 I went to put something in the back of my Mountaineer only to find before opening it that there was a large crack in the liftgate. I'm not exactly sure if this effects the integrity of the glass back window, but I'm sure with time it will spread.....then what!
