Description of the problem | 8 am removing packages from rear of escape. Upon simply closing the hatch door, the glass shattered to bits. I have opened and closed that hatch door dozens of times. It closes well . No need to slam. Shocks balance well. I checked the web and found many similar occurrences. I immediately recorded (camera) the aftermath with the hopes that ford may come to the pump. I had the car fixed at the dealer $1200 out of pocket. Ford canada will not even acknowledge the nhtsa #10039131 tsb 10-22-10 per phone call to ford help line. |
