From what I've read in the last hour, this seems to be a common problem. We just bought an 03 Mountaineer earlier today and I guess I didn't check the vehicle thoroughly enough because there are two cracks going down the back panel. I did a google search and I guess this is pretty common with the Mountaineers and the Explorers. Was there any kind of recall issued to fix the problem? Do you think the dealership will fix it or am I stuck with it? Is this a safety issue? I'm kind of freaking out here and I'm upset with myself for not seeing it before I left the lot. Thanks everyone
