Carrier/rack Problems of Ford Explorer Sport Trac

I noticed a crack in the liftgate bottom abs panel to the right of the fors emblem in October 2015. On December 8, 2015 the vehicle was stationary then all of a sudden the back window glass in the liftgate blew-out. I understand there is a class-action lawsuit file in California regarding this safety defect. I feel it is unsafe, because I could be driving on an interstate and the glass has the potential to break-out without warning, causing operator distracton to drining which could result in an accident.

I was picking my daughter up from school. We got into the car put our seatbelts on I started the vehicle and put it in gear. I picked my foot up and moved to the gas when I noticed a car coming up from beside me and then I pressed the brake and the passenger side airbag deployed cracking the windshield and pulling the dash cover away from the radio and air vent. We called Ford motor and we were told to take it to a dealership to be examined. Ford customer care has left messages at our home number when we return the calls we ask them to call our cell numbers and they will not. I think the do not want to talk to us. A week later the dealership called and said that Ford motor would pay for the diagnostic but would not pay for the repairs because the car is out of warranty. That the airbag failing is no different then having to change out the brakes from wear and tear. We were not aware that a safety feature had an expiration date. I was to the understanding that a safety feature should last the lift time of the vehicle. Because of this I am worried about driving any cars with airbags. We were not asking Ford motor for anything additional but to just repair the car and we can never talk to anyone at the company.

The front windshield glass was crack for no reason, just because the temperature was 90s. We have other cars and all are fine. I believe is the metal where the rear mirror is mounted. Based on my forensic class, cars have a least 3 coats of paint, primer, the color and the clear coat, this car only has two coats of paint.
