Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The lift gate (window portion) of my 2002 ford explorer has sustained a crack directly down the middle under the glass. the crack is clean cut and appears to expand and close when the weather is cold and contracts and closes when the weather is hot. i have no idea how the crack appeared. i noticed it approximately 2 month ago and has not had any incidences that would warrant the crack. since i've noticed the crack, i've seen two other explores that have the same crack in the same location as mine, and starting wondering if this is a body defect. can you please research this concern for me and notify me of your findings? *jb
