Rear Window Wiper Washer problems of the 2006 Ford Explorer

The contact owns a 2006 Ford Explorer. The contact stated that while driving 55 mph in the rain, the rear windshield wiper suddenly malfunctioned which made it difficult to see out of the rear window. The contact referenced recall 05v520000 (visibility: windshield wiper/washer: motor) but was informed that the vehicle was not included. The failure mileage was approximately 82,000.

I own a 2006 Ford Explorer eddie bauer model. Six months after purchase, the rear wiper blade stopped working. I called the dealer which I purchased it from and they told me it is not covered and a new motor would cost $300 plus labor. I feel this is a safety issue because with the heavy snows and rain in my area, a malfunctioning rear wiper could cause an accident. I know of 4 other people with the same problem with the same vehicle. I called Ford headquarters to file a complaint and they said there was nothing they can do. Please look into this problem and I am sure I am not the only person complaining of this issue.
