The contact owns a 2005 Ford Explorer. On January 12, 2010 he noticed that the rear hatch glass was split in half. He filed a report with the manufacturer who confirmed that there were no related recalls; therefore, they would not offer any assistance. The vehicle will be repaired by the dealer. The failure and current mileages were 66,000.

Both sun visors in my 2005 Explorer broke within a day of each other. The small plastic holder on each of them shatter into microscopic pieces with nothing on the visors. No cd holders or sunglasses either. They just broke while driving down the road. They were both folded up and not being used. It was very strange. It happened when I was driving and I felt like it was very dangerous because it dangled by a wire that could not be cut due to what it was connected to. I tried electrical tape and anything I could think of but it would not stay up. I could not get an appt until the following week and had to drive with this obstruction for 2 days. Not only was it annoying but it was very unsafe. Of course, my warranty had expired two months prior to this incident. It cost me $205. 00 to have this repaired and I feel like this could be a recall issue because I have seen more complaints online by several other people with this car.
