2019 Ford Explorer Windshield Specifications & Details
The 2019 Ford Explorer is the fifth and final year of the U502 fifth-generation platform — the unibody architecture Ford introduced in 2011 to replace the ladder-frame U251. Production ran at Chicago Assembly Plant in Illinois before Ford shut U502 tooling in late 2019 and retooled Chicago for the all-new rear-wheel-drive CD6 Explorer that debuted for the 2020 model year. Because 2019 is a generation-terminal year, the NAGS FW03574 GTYN windshield is specific to 2011-2019 U502 vehicles and is NOT interchangeable with the 2020+ CD6 windshield. Explorer Sport and Platinum trims ship with acoustic laminated glass; XLT and Base use standard laminated.
Ford sources most 2019 Explorer windshields through Carlex Glass (a 50/50 Ford/Central Glass Japan joint venture at the Nashville and Vonore, Tennessee plants). Pilkington, AGC, and Fuyao ship aftermarket equivalents that meet FMVSS and ANSI/SAE Z26.1 specifications. The Explorer's rain-sensor cutout, heated wiper park zone (on Limited and above), and the bracket for the forward camera (when equipped with the Safe & Smart Package or Platinum trim) all need to be correctly matched during parts ordering.
Glass Options for Your 2019 Ford Explorer
OEM Motorcraft/Carlite glass typically runs $525-$850 depending on acoustic and heated-wiper features. Quality aftermarket (Pilkington, AGC, XYG) runs $380-$650. If your Explorer is a 2019 Sport, Platinum, or a Limited with the Safe & Smart Package, plan on the higher end because the camera and heated-park variant adds roughly $150-$200 to parts cost and a calibration fee. We use Dow BETASEAL EXPRESS urethane for a one-hour safe drive-away time after install.
2019 Ford Explorer Auto Glass in Houston
The Explorer is a staple family SUV in The Woodlands, Sugar Land, and Cypress/Fairfield — neighborhoods where we dispatch multiple Explorer jobs per week. Most of the damage we see is rock-chip bullseye hits from the I-10 Katy Freeway construction zones and the SH-99 Grand Parkway where DOT gravel resurfacing is constant. Our mobile crews carry 2019 U502 glass in both base and heated-park variants, and we complete installation in your driveway, office, or wherever you park. If your 2019 Explorer is a Platinum with the forward camera, we bring the Ford IDS tablet and Bosch ADAS target set for the static calibration that Ford TSB 18-2319 requires.
Common Issues & What to Watch For
Ford TSB 18-2319 documents wind-noise complaints at the front A-pillar corner; our installation SOP includes a supplemental bead of urethane at the upper corner where the factory molding meets the pillar. TSB 17-2205 covers leaks at the third-row headliner traced to cowl drain blockage — not glass-related but we inspect and clear while the windshield is out. If your Explorer has been in a prior accident, ask us about checking the pinch-weld for corrosion before we install the new glass; Houston humidity can hide rust under paint.
