Consumer Description
The trim and gasket around the windshield has become broken and cracked within the first 60k miles. The gasket has come loose and was flapping against the windshield while driving. In order to replace the trim must be broken off. Ford refused to fix and said would be $1200 to fix. If you look at many explorers from these model years itβs a recurring thing they they know about. This needs to be recalled because it can come off and fly and hit the vehicle behind us.
