2005 Lincoln AVIATOR Structure Body Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1148267
Internal NHTSA #	10672178

Brand	LINCOLN
Model	AVIATOR
Model Year	2005
File date	01/11/14
Component	STRUCTURE:BODY
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I noticed a crack on the back panel of my tailgate. There was no accident or incident and since then i have noticed at least 3 other cars in my small town with the same defect. I have written to ford and gotten no response. From what i have seen on the internet, this is not an isolated problem. I feel that ford/lincoln should recall the affected models of car (including ford explorers) and make these repairs. The mechanism that keeps my tailgate window closed and locked is also broken and i think it is directly related to the crack in the tailgate. This compromises our safety in the car by making the car unable to be locked properly. Someone could easily get into the car from the tailgate and steal anything in the car, steal the car itself, and pose an immediate threat to our personal safety.
