A CRACK APPEARED ON THE REAR TAILGATE PANEL DIRECTLY BELOW THE  TAILGATE GLASS AND NEXT TO THE FORD EMBLEM.  THE DEALER, SUMMERVILLE FORD, SUMMERVILLE, SC,  INFORMED ME THAT ALTHOUGH HE SEES THIS PROBLEM OFTEN ON THIS EXPLORER BODY STYLE, NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED AND FORD WOULD NOT PAY FOR THE REPAIR.  OBVIOUSLY, FORD IS AWARE OF THIS POOR DESIGN RESULTING IN BODY INTEGRITY FAILURE, BASED ON THE OTHER EXPLORERS I HAVE WITNESSED ON OUR ROADS WITH THE SAME DAMAGE AND THE OTHER COMPLAINTS TO NHTSA.  BUT FORD IS REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING TO CORRECT THIS FAILURE. I NOTICE THE NEW EXPLORERS NO LONGER HAVE THIS POOR TAILGATE DESIGN.  THIS IS DAMAGE CAUSED BY FORD'S POOR DESIGN AND SHOULD BE ACKNOWLEDGED AND REPAIRED BY FORD. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2004","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
