2002 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER — STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE:HINGE AND ATTACHMENTS

I WAS MAKING SURE ALL THE DOORS OF MY 2002' MOUNTAINEER WERE CLOSED AND WHEN I SHUT THE BACK LIFT GATE ONE OF THE CONNECTING BRACKETS CAME OUT OF PLACE AND CAUSED THE WHOLE THING TO SHATTER A SPRAY GLASS IN MY FACE. I HAD GLASS STUCK IN MY SCALP AND HAD TO WASH OUT MY EYES FOR 4 HOURS AS WELL AS MY HANDS AND FACE BEING CUT. I READ ON YOUR WEBSITE THAT THIS IS A KNOW DEFECT BY FORD, I CONTACTED FORD ON THIS AND THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME SINCE MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRENTY THEY DONT CARE AND THE PART COST OVER $1200 TO BE REPLACED - BECAUSE THE WAY IT WAS DESIGNED YOU CANNOT GET JUST THE GLASS I NEED BODY PARTS TOO.*AK PE04045.PCO
