Consumer Description

MY 2004 FORD EXPLORER HAS A CRACK ON THE REAR WINDOW PANEL BY THE FORD EMBLEM, ITS BEEN THIS WAS FOR AWHILE, JUST THURSDAY NIGHT I NOTICED GLASS ON THE GROUND BEHIND MY VEHICLE THEN LOOKED UP AND IT WAS MY BACK WINDOW. IT SHATTERED, THE PANEL BOWED OUT AS IF IT WARPED OUTWARD AND SHATTERED THE WINDOW. LUCKILY IT HAD BEEN PARKED AND NO ONE WAS AROUND WHEN IT HAPPENED. AS A RESULT OF THIS THE ENTIRE LIFT GATE AND REAR WINDOW WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. I'M STILL WAITING FOR MY INSURANCE TO COME AND APPRAISE THE DAMAGES. *TR
