1 Trunk Lid Lock problem of the 1996 Ford Explorer

Failure Date: 12/05/2004

1996 Ford Explorer ,opened liftgate and support shock popped off of bracket the ball on bracket broke off,now talked to local dealer service manger to see if there was a recall,but he said there wasnt,but he seen other Explorers do the same thing,now luckily this happened when I was opening the gate,not when I was under the gate,which made me think that this could a very potental injurie,or even a life threating hazzard if it was a small person like a child,if this gate lets loose when someone is under it. This gate is very heavy and slams very hard without the support of both shocks.
