Consumer Description

REAR LIFTGATE PANEL CRACKED VERTICALLY NEXT TO EMBLEM UNDER LIFTGATE GLASS AFTER WARM DAY AND A COOL NIGHT. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY CAN REPAIR IT AT MY COST AND THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS HAPPENING TO NUMEROUS AVIATOR'S AND MOUNTAINEER AND IT HAPPENED THROUGH NO FAULT OF MY OWN, AND THEY BELIEVE THE PART TO BE DEFECTIVE. *TR
