Problems with 2007 Ford Explorer VISIBILITY

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 ford explorer. while driving at low speeds, the rear window exploded and caused glass to shatter throughout the vehicle. the contact mentioned that the weather was above freezing and the rear defroster was activated when the failure occurred. the contact sustained minor lacerations. the vehicle had not been diagnosed. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 77,000.

The visor on the driver side, the mirror assembly has separated from the visor and on the passenger side the cover of the mirror assembly has snapped. the passenger side mirror is rarely used since a passenger is rarely in the seat. the clips holding the driver side mirror assembly snapped off and the only thing holding the mirror on is the feed line for the mirror lamp. *js

Back window flipped open while driving 15 mph in a parking lot. went to close it and the hinge cracked so the window was hanging by one hinge. using all my strength i was able to push the window up (extremely difficult given the pump) and close it, although not secure. the window is very heavy and held by a plastic hinge that completely snapped. this is a problem cited in earlier models, and apparently ford did not rectify the issue. plastic is not strong enough to hold heavy glass. *tr
