Consumer Description

POWER WINDOWS ON 2000 FORD FOCUS FAIL OFTEN. I HAVE HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM ON MANY OTHER FOCI VIA THE INTERNET; BUT I HAVE PERSONALLY HAD 3 POWER WINDOWS FAIL (WHICH IS A SAFETY CONCERN, AS WINDOWS FALL DOWN VIOLENT WHEN THEY FAIL AND REMAIN DOWN, CANNOT BE ROLLED UP AND WILL NOT STAY UP IF MOVED BY HAND LEAVING VEHICLE EXPOSED TO THEFT AND THE ELEMENTS) IN LESS THAN 3 YEARS... TWO OF WHICH HAVE FAILED OUT OF WARRANTY. (WARRANTY IS UP IN ONE MONTH TIME FRAME; BUT HAVE DRIVEN VEHICLE 45,000 MILES.) CONSUMERS ARE SERIOUSLY GETTING BITTEN BY THE COST OF REPLACING FORD'S FAULTY DESIGNED POWER WINDOW ASSEMBLIES. DATE OF MOST RECENT INCIDENT GIVEN. *JB
