Consumer Description

I RENTED A 2010 FORD ESCAPE LIMITED AND A 2010 FORD TAURUS LIMITED THIS WEEK FOR VACATION. AS I WAS OPENING THE LIFTGATE ON THE ESCAPE, THE REAR WINDOW MAKE A CREAK NOISE AND EXPLODED INTO MY FACE. I HAVE CUT ALL OVER MY HANDS, BUT THANK GOD IT AVOIDED MY EYES. MY 10 YEAR OLD SONG HAD GASHES ON HIS LEGS FROM WHERE THE GLASS FELL AS WELL. I'VE BEEN LOOKING AROUND AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A REAL PROBLEM WITH THE ESCAPES. TAKE CARE OF TOYOTA BUT TAKE CARE OF FORD TOO! *TR
