Side/rear Glass problems of the 1998 Ford Expedition

Two problems related to side/rear glass have been reported for the 1998 Ford Expedition. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Side/rear Glass problem

Failure Date: 02/08/2001

Rear window "exploded" outwards without warning. It was not hit, the weather was cool. The blowout pattern sent 99% of the glass into the street a distance of 30 feet or more. Very little glass was inside the car. I have heard of other incidents of this happening in the Expedition/navigator models. Is this in fact a model specific or design problem.

2 Side/rear Glass problem

Failure Date: 02/01/1999

On two occasions the window will not go up / down.
