#828 of 841 Panel under rear hatch glass is cracked, noticed others with same issue.... by igozoomzoom Jan 27, 2009 (1:06 pm)
My sister has an '04 Explorer XLT and the exterior panel (plastic, I think) located between the rear hach glass and the license plate recently cacked into two pieces! Since that happened, I've spotted at least four other Explorers with the same broken panel...so I'm guessing this isn't an isolate incident?   Does anyone else know about this issue or perhaps you've experienced the same problem? I'd love to find out that Ford will replace it (even though the warranty is long gone), but I'm wondering if it was a defective part altogether that they should be paying to replace?   Any advice will be appreciated!

Replying to: igozoomzoom (Jan 27, 2009 1:06 pm) I've read about your cracked hatch problem before. IIRC, Ford does not fix that under warranty unfortunately. Others have stated they had to pay for it out of pocket. That's not to say you can't try if you still have some kind of warranty working for you though. I've only read about it a few times.

Replying to: igozoomzoom (Jan 27, 2009 1:06 pm) I have a 2004 Mercury Mountaineer with the same problem. I took it to the dealer and was told tit was a design problem. Dealer repaired with no cost to me. Replies to this message: baggs32 (Feb 24, 2009 9:17 am)

Replying to: bernie19 (Feb 24, 2009 9:01 am) When did they repair it at no cost to you? I'm just wondering if Ford finally realized what was going on and decided to pay now. I wonder if they are reimbursing those who did pay previously?
#832 of 841 18" tires by jdh Mar 01, 2009 (7:52 am)
I am considering buying used 2008 explorer ltd. Vehicle has 18" tires and do not know how they will do in snow compared to 17" tires. Can anyone give me any info on this. Jack Replies to this message: pnewby (Mar 28, 2009 4:55 pm)

Replying to: jdh (Mar 01, 2009 7:52 am) My '06 EB 4WD has 18 inch tires, and other than the cost to replace, I have had no problems with them. The wife hit a curb at about 5,000 and the one tire was close to $200. I'm hoping they have come down some since I'll have to look for a new set in about 10k.   They were gret this winter in snow and ice, and it was a worse than average winter.

Replying to: steve_ (Apr 02, 2009 8:24 pm) this looked like an oversized taurus x... i was hoping the new explorer isn't going to be like this. i saw a photo in car and driver mag of the 2011 explorer and i liked that much better. Replies to this message: steve_ (Apr 30, 2009 4:47 pm)

Replying to: alman08 (Apr 29, 2009 10:01 pm) Maybe they got their test mules mixed up.
