Consumer Description

MY F150 LARIAT SUPERCREW 4X4 ONLY HAS 19,000 MILES ON IT AND IS VERY WELL KEPT. WHILE POWER ROLLING MY WINDOW UP, I HEARD A LOUD BANG, LIKE MY TRUCK HAD BEEN HIT. UPON INSPECTION I NOTED THAT MY DRIVER SIDE FRONT WINDOW WOULD NOT STAY UP. AFTER CONTACTING MY LOCAL FORD DEALER (ADVANTAGE FORD) I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS A FAULTY WINDOW REGULATOR UNIT AND THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. I CONTACTED FORD IN THE DESIRE FOR THEM TO FIX THIS FREE OF CHARGE (WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED BASED ON YEARS BUT NOT MILES). THEY WOULD NOT DO SO. THE DEALERSHIP CHARGES $365 TO FIX THE WINDOW OR YOU CAN PURCHASE THE PART FOR $150 AND DO IT YOURSELF IF YOU ARE SO INCLINED. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THESE TRUCKS ONLINE AND THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED BY FORD AND FIXED FREE OF CHARGE. *TR
