2004 FORD F-150 Visibility Problems

WINDOW FAILURE IN MY 2004 F150 FORD PICKUP. WINDOW JUST FALLS DOWN & TAPE WILL NOT EVEN HOLD IT UP. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN FAILURE BY FORD & NO RECALL. ALSO, MY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING FOR THE SECOND TIME. IT ONLY HAS 47K MILES WITH THESE WELL KNOWN & DOCUMENTED PERVASIVE PROBLEMS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN MY WINDOW ON MY FORD F150 LARIAT CAME CRASHING DOWN TWO WEEKS AGO( MY CHILD WAS SITTING NEXT TO THE WINDOW SHE IS 6 MTHS OLD) & IT DISTRACTED ME LONG ENOUGH TO LOOK BACK @ THE ROAD & THERE WAS A CAR STOPPED TO MAKE A SUDDEN TURN & I COULDN'T SLOW DOWN FAST ENOUGH & I HIT THEM IN THE REAR. ALL 4 OF US WENT TO HOSPITAL WITH MINOR INJURIES. IT WAS MY FAULT THE COP SAID BUT I TOLD HIM ABOUT THE WINDOW & HE DIDN'T GIVE ME A TICKET THANKFULLY. ITS STILL @ THE BODY SHOP BEING FIXED THE PROBLEM WAS THE WINDOW REGULATOR & IT IS BEING REPLACED BUT THE BODY SHOP MANAGER SAYS THESE GO OUT WAY TO MUCH THIS IS THE 3RD ONE REPLACED ON THIS TRUCK, SO I LOOKED ONLINE & COULDN'T BELIEVE HOW...

THIS IS A FAILURE OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW FALLING DOWN INTO THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING. THIS SEAMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE FORD F-150 PICKUP. WHILE IT HAS NOT LEAD TO A CRASH TO MY KNOWLEDGE, THE POTENTIAL IS THERE. IMAGINE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE IN CROWED TRAFFIC AND YOUR WINDOW DROPS DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. YOUR ATTENTION WILL DEFINITELY BE DISTRACTED FROM YOUR DRIVING AND DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER THIS COULD BE EVEN MORE DANGEROUS. EVERYTHING I HAVE READ POINTS TO THE SAME PRODUCT FAILURE. A RECALL SHOULD BE MANDATORY BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

DRIVING 35 MPH ON SMOOTH ROAD, PASSENGER ATTEMPTED TO LOWER SIDE WINDOW AND THE WINDOW DROPPED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR (INSIDE) AND WOULD NOT OPERATE UP. *TR

SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE ... THE WINDOW JUST COMES CRASHING DOWN WITHOUT EVEN TOUCHING IT WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ALONG. *TR

MY FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR AS I WAS STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT WAITING TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY. FROM THE SOUND OF IT I THOUGHT THE WINDOW HAD BROKEN. IT WAS A GOOD THING I WASN'T DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY DURING THAT TIME. IT PROBABLY WOULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. *TR

3 OUT OF 4 WINDOWS ON MY 2004 FORD F150 HAVE FALLEN DOWN BECAUSE OF WINDOW MOTOR REGULATOR FAILURE. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM! *TR

I WAS GOING TO MY TRUCK AND I REALIZED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WAS DOWN. WHEN I TRIED TO RAISE IT, IT MADE A GRINDING NOISE AND WOULD NOT BUDGE. ALL OF MY PERSONAL BELONGINGS WERE IN MY TRUCK AND SOMEONE COULD HAVE EASILY TAKEN THEM. I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GO TO WORK OR SCHOOL WITH THE WINDOW DOWN AND I AM NOT PAYING TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THIS IS FORD'S RESPONSIBILITY. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. *TR

I HEARD A LOUD POP OR BANG WHEN I WAS PUTTING UP THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW. THE WINDOW FELL DOWN AND WON'T COME BACK UP. MOTOR TURNS AND MAKES A GRINDING NOISE. CROSSROAD FORD CARY NC REPAIR ESTIMATE WAS $400 - $450. *TR

RIGHT REAR WINDOW IN MY 2004 FORD F150 FELL WHILE DRIVING HOME ON I10 WITH A INFANT AND A TWO YEAR OLD IN THEIR CAR SEATS. I AM REALLY UPSET THAT FORD HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT THIS. WE HAD TO DRIVE OVER 150 MILES WITH THE WINDOW DOWN IN APPROX. 107 DEGREE WEATHER IN ARIZONA. PLEASE MAKE THEM FIX THE PROBLEM. EXACTLY ONE MONTH LATER THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW FELL DOWN AS WELL SO NOW I HAVE TWO PINNED UP WINDOWS BECAUSE I CANT AFFORD TO FIX THEM, WE ARE A MILITARY FAMILY WITH MY HUSBAND SERVING THE ENDURING FREEDOM TOUR IN AFGHANISTAN. *TR

MY DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW WENT OUT ONE DAY, THEN ABOUT TWO DAYS LATER MY PASSENGER AND BACK LEFT WINDOW WENT OUT. I BROUGHT IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO GET IT FIXED, ALONG WITH WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A SPARK PLUG AND COILES. WELL I A FOUND OUT THAT A 2004 F-150 I HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. WHILE IT WAS IN THE SHOP MY BACK RIGHT WINDOW APERANTLY WENT OUT . IT WAS WORKING WHEN IT WENT IN, AND WHEN I GOT IT BACK I HAD A PLASTIC TARP ON MY WINDOW, PANEL WAS OFF, AND NOONE HAD TOLD ME THEY LET IT RAIN IN MY TRUCK OR THAT THE ONE WINDOW THAT HAD WORKED WAS NOW OUT ALSO. *TR

WE OWN A 2004 FORD F-150 AND WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HIT A SMALL BUMP AND THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW JUST FELL DOWN. I HAD TO TAKE TO A BODY SHOP MAN TO FIX THE WINDOW. *TR

AS I LOWERED THE DRIVER'S-SIDE POWER WINDOW, IT MADE A LOUD SCRAPING NOISE AND THEN AN EVEN LOUDER POP/CRACK WHICH MADE ME THINK THE WINDOW HAD BROKEN. I RAISED THE WINDOW CAUTIOUSLY AND EVEN THOUGH IT CONTINUED TO MAKE NOISES, THE GLASS APPEARED TO BE UNDAMAGED. ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER, THE WINDOW SLID DOWN INTO THE DOOR OF THE TRUCK. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME ON WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 16, 2009, AND THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW IN MY 2004 FORD F-150 PICKUP, FELL INTO THE DOOR. I COULD NOT GET IT TO GO BACK UP AND HAVE NO IDEA WHY THIS OCCURRED. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, AS I WAS PASSING A LARGE TRUCK AT THE TIME AND THOUGHT THAT I HAD BEEN SIDESWIPED. FORD SHOULD FIX THIS PROBLEM BASED ON THE NUMBER OF OCCURRENCES THAT I HAVE NOW SEEN. *TR

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY DRIVER WINDOW CAME CRASHING DOWN. 2004 F !50 *TR

I OWN A FORD F150 V8 5.4 TRITAN ABOUT A MONTH AGO MY PASSENGERS SIDE WINDOW FELL DOWN IN THE DOOR WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT SCARED ME AND CAUSED ME TO SWERVE WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE. ABOUT A WEEK AGO MY DRIVERS SIDE E WINDOW DID THE SAME THING WHILE DRIVING ON A TWO LANE WINDING ROAD. IT CRASHED DOWN INTO THE DOOR SCARING ME AND ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I REALIZED THAT THIS IS PROBLEM MANY OTHER FORD OWNERS ARE HAVING AND NOT JUST A FLUKE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE IT CAUSES AN ACCIDENT RESULTING IN SOMEONE'S DEATH. *TR

I'VE HAD TO HAVE THE WINDOW REGULATORS REPLACED 4 TIMES IN ONE YEAR. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. I SEE 100'S OF COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE AUTOMATIC WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR AND DOES NOT ROLL UP. *TR

THE POWER WINDOWS ON MY F-150 HAVE FAILED ON FOUR DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, WITH ONE WINDOW FAILING TWICE. A FAMILY MEMBER WAS DRIVING THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED AND WAS FORTUNATE NOT TO WRECK THE VEHICLE. THE LATEST OCCURRENCE WAS FORTUNATE THAT IT OCCURRED WHILE I WAS IN THE PARKING LOT OF THE MALL. IT IS EVIDENT BY THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS THAT FORD IS NOT TAKING THIS PROBLEM AS SERIOUS AS THEY SHOULD. *TR

I, LIKE THOUSANDS OF OTHERS OF CONCERNED CONSUMERS, HAVE EXPERIENCED FAULTY WINDOW REGULATORS IN MY 2004 FORD F-150. LAST NIGHT, MY REAR WINDOW BROKE WHEN TRYING TO ROLE IT UP. SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, MY DRIVER WINDOW BROKE WHEN I WASN'T EVEN USING THE WINDOW OR NEAR THE TRUCK. I JUST WALKED OUT TO MY TRUCK WITH THE WINDOW DOWN - THINKING SOMEONE HAD BROKEN INTO MY TRUCK. WHEN COMPLAINING TO FORD, THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. THE GUY AT THE FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP SAID HE HAD THE SAME TRUCK AT THE TIME AND HAD ALREADY REPLACED 3 ON HIS TRUCK. AS FOR CORRECTING THE PROBLEM WHEN DOING THE $350 REPAIR, HE TOLD ME THE REPAIR IS THE SAME AS IT WAS MANUFACTURED AND HE ACKNOWLEDGED PROBLEM WOULD REPEAT OVER TIME. PAYING OVER $30,000 FOR A TRUCK AND HAVING WINDOWS BREAKING LIKE THIS...

DRIVER SIDE WINDOW IN MY 2004 F-150 LARIAT FELL DOWN IN THE DOOR WHILE TRAVELING 35MPH DOWN THE ROAD. IT MADE A VERY LOUD THUMP SOUND BEFORE IT FELL. *TR

IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL HAVE TO BE A NUMBER OF INJURIES OR DEATHS BEFORE A RECALL IS PUT IN EFFECT HERE. I HAVE A FORD F150 SUPERCREW 2004, THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW DROPPED AND SHATTERED SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WITH A LOUD NOISE AND SHATTERED GLASS. I THOUGHT I WAS SHOT AT, AT THE TIME AND WAS VERY LUCKY THERE WAS NOT A SERIOUS ACCIDENT KILLING AND INJURING MANY PEOPLE. KIDS WERE CRYING AND ALL INSIDE VEHICLE WERE VERY UPSET. AFTERWARDS I REMOVED THE WINDOW GLASS AND THE REGULATOR ASSEMBLY AND THE PROBLEM IS THE PLASTIC CLIPS THAT HOLD THE CONTROL CABLES IN PLACE. THEY APPEAR TO BE CHEAP AND FRAGILE AND OBVIOUSLY BREAK EASILY AND FOR NO REASON, LETTING THE CABLES COME OUT OF THEIR GUIDES AND THEREFORE DROPPING THE WINDOW UNEXPECTEDLY. I HAVE TAKEN NUMEROUS PICTURES IF ANYONE FROM FORD, NHTSA OR ANYONE ELSE WOULD...

POWER WINDOWS DROP INTO DOOR. *TR

WHILE DRIVING I HEARD A LOUD, METALLIC-SOUNDING POP FROM ONE OF MY DOORS, FOLLOWED BY THE WINDOW SLIDING DOWN INTO THE DOOR. THE WINDOW WOULD NOT RESPOND TO THE POWER WINDOW BUTTON. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP PERFORMING THE REPAIR HAS QUOTED THE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR ASSEMBLY AS BEING THE PROBLEM, AND QUOTED $450 TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PART. *TR

ON THURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 2009, I WAS PUTTING MY SON IN MY TRUCK TO HEAD OFF TO WORK. AS WE PULLED AWAY, HE STARTED SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT THE WINDOW. I LOOKED BACK AND THE WINDOW NEXT TO HIM WAS DOWN ABOUT 3 INCHES. BY THE TIME WE GOT TO HIS DAYCARE, THE WINDOW WAS ALL THE WAY DOWN. I HAD TO GO BACK HOME, PULL THE WINDOW UP AND JAM IT INTO PLACE. I WON'T BE ABLE TO TAKE IT IN UNTIL MONDAY. THIS IS AT LEAST THE 5TH TIME A WINDOW HAS FALLEN ON THIS TRUCK IN THREE YEARS AND I HAVE ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE REAR POWER SLIDING WINDOW MOTOR REPLACED TWICE. THE PREVIOUS OCCURRENCES HAVE BEEN UNDER EITHER FACTORY OR EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT THIS ONE WILL NOT BE. FORTUNATELY NONE OF THEM HAVE HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING LIKE OTHER DRIVERS I HAVE SEEN ON THIS...

WHEN I STARTED MY TRUCK, I ROLLED DOWN THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW AND WHEN I PUSHED THE BUTTON TO ROLL UP THE WINDOW I HEARD A POP AND THEN A SOUND LIKE SOMETHING FELL INSIDE THE DOOR. THE WINDOW WILL NOT ROLL UP. NOW THE WINDOW SLIDES DOWN BY ITSELF. *TR

I ATTEMPTED TO PUT MY PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW DOWN & IT CRASHED DOWN INTO THE DOOR WITH THE GLASS SHATTERING AS IT DROPPED INTO THE DOOR FRAME. APPROXIMATELY TWO YEARS AGO I HAD THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW LOOKED AT IT SOUNDED STRANGE ON OPERATION. FORD DEALERS DISAGREED. ONE MONTH LATER THE WINDOW FAILED TO OPERATE & FORD FIXED THE WINDOW AT THEIR COST. I ALSO HAD THEM CHECK ALL OF THE OTHER WINDOWS BECAUSE THEY TOO DID NOT SOUND CORRECT WHEN OPERATING AND NOTHING WAS FOUND WRONG AT THAT TIME. I AM NOW WITHOUT A WINDOW & WILL CONTACT FORD ABOUT THIS PROBLEM & HOPE THEY WILL FIX IT AT THEIR EXPENSE AS I FEEL THIS SHOULD NOT BE MY RESPONSIBILITY FOR A TRUCK THAT IS ONLY 5 YRS OLD. *TR

DRIVER WINDOW FELL WHILE DRIVING. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 F140 SUPERCREW 4X4. LAST WEEK I HEARD A POP COME FROM MY PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR AND NOT A MINUTE LATER MY WINDOW FELL DOWN IN THE DOOR. TWO DAYS LATER I HEARD THE SAME POP COME FROM MY PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DOOR. TWO REGULATORS POPPED WITH IN THREE DAYS. I CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX THEM RIGHT NOW SO I'M RIDING AROUND WITH VISE GRIPS HOLDING MY WINDOWS UP. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THIS IS THE SECOND FORD PICKUP THAT I'VE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH. FORD REALLY NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY, LEFT REAR WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED AND WINDOW GLASS FELL FROM THE CLOSED POSITION WITH A LOUD BOOM. AS A RESULT OF THE LOUD CRASHING OF THE FALLING WINDOW GLASS AT FREEWAY SPEEDS COMBINED WITH THE SUDDEN AND VIOLENT GUST OF WIND AND DEBRIS INTO THE CAB NEARLY CAUSED ME TO LOOSE CONTROL, AND ROLL OVER. THIS IS THE THIRD INCIDENT I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH WINDOW REGULATOR FAILURE ON THIS TRUCK. *TR

DRIVER SIDE WINDOW FELL INTO DOOR. WINDOW NO LONGER OPERATIVE. WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED AT PLASTIC CONNECTOR. *TR

ROLLED DOWN MY DRIVER'S WINDOW, STARTED ROLLING IT BACK UP HEARD A LOUD POP, WINDOW FELL DOWN & WOULDN'T ROLL BACK UP. *TR

I WHEN TO ROLL DOWN MY WINDOW AND IT STARTED DOWN THEN I HEARD A LOUD BANG AND THE GLASS FELL INSIDE THE DOOR THIS IS A CONCERN BECAUSE SOME COULD STILL MY STUFF OUT OF MY TRUCK OR EVEN STILL IT RIGHT NOW I HAVE IT RIGGED WHERE IT WILL STAY UP BUT I CAN NOT ROLL DOWN OR USE MY WINDOW. *TR

STARTED IN JUNE 2008 WITH DRIVER'S WINDOW DROPPING INTO DOOR. JULY 2008 REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW DID SAME. NOW JULY 18, 2009 REAR PASSENGER'S WINDOW DID SAME. EACH TIME DEALER REFUSES TO SAY THAT ITS A PROBLEM. SAY MINE IS THE ONLY TRUCK DOING THIS. TRUCK ONLY HAS 36,000 MILES. *TR

IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS THREE POWER WINDOW REGULATORS IN MY 2004 FORD F-150 FOUR DOOR PICKUP HAVE FAILED. I AM REPORTING THIS BECAUSE THERE NEEDS TO BE A CONSUMER RECALL. FORD IS COVERING UP THE PROBLEMS I HAVE SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND OVER 1000 DIFFERENT COMPLAINTS IN LESS THAN 30 MINUTES. *TR

12/2008 - PASSENGER'S REAR WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED ALLOWING WINDOW TO FALL DOWN. 6/24/2009 - DRIVER'S REAR WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED ALLOWING WINDOW TO FALL DOWN. 6/26/2009 - DRIVER'S FRONT WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED AND WINDOW FELL RAPIDLY INTO DOOR. NOISE CAUSED SCARE THAT MADE DRIVER SWERVE ALMOST COLLIDING WITH VEHICLE IN ADJOINING LANE. 12/2008 REPLACED UNIT. 6/2009 - NO REPAIRS MADE YET. *TR

MY DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW JUST FELL OPEN WHILE DRIVING AND WOULD NOT GO BACK UP. AFTER INVESTIGATING THE POWER WINDOW UNIT HAD BROKEN. 7 DAYS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW. THE DEALER TOLD ME THIS IS COMMON AND IS A DEFECT BUT FORD REFUSES TO RECALL THEM. THE DEALER SAID IT WILL MOST LIKELY HAPPEN TO YOUR OTHER 2 WINDOWS AS WELL! $400 EACH TO REPAIR. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 FORD F-150 FX4. I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK LAST SEPTEMBER AND IT HAS 42000 MILES ON IT. FOR THE PAST WEEK MY WINDOW HAS BEEN MAKING A GRINDING SOUND LIKE MAYBE SAND IN THE PARTS WHEN I ROLL IT DOWN. TODAY THE WINDOW POPPED AND FELL DOWN. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO ME OR ANY PASSENGERS. I TOOK THE DOOR PANEL OFF AND THE PIECES THAT LOOK BROKEN ARE PLASTIC. I REFUSE TO PAY $400.00 TO GET IT FIXED. *TR

I WAS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, 3 HOUSES AWAY, WHEN AN ONCOMING CAR CAME. I SWERVED MY PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR THEN STRUCK A MAILBOX. THE PASSENGER WINDOW WAS DOWN. IN THE PROCESS, ON IMPACT, THE GLASS FROM THE MIRROR EXPLODED. WHEN THE MIRROR EXPLODED, ONLY THEN, THE SHATTERED GLASS FLEW INTO THE WINDOW CUTTING A VANE IN MY RIGHT ARM. I BLEED PROFUSELY FOR 20 MIN. I MANAGED TO SLOW DOWN THE BLEEDING BUT EVENTUALLY WENT TO MEDICAL CENTER THEN TO THE HOSPITAL. GLASS FLEW INTO AND FRAGMENTS OF GLASS PENETRATED THE SEATS IN THE VEHICLE AND CLOTHING ON THE BODY. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 FORD F150 LARIAT SUPERCREW. ON 6/11/09 I ROLLED ALL THE WINDOWS DOWN TO AIR OUT THE VEHICLE AND THEN ROLLED THEM BACK UP AND HEARD A LOUD POP COMING FROM THE RIGHT REAR WINDOW. THEN THE GLASS JUST FELL DOWN INTO THE DOOR. ON 6/22/09, THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE LEFT REAR WINDOW. AFTER SEARCHING ON-LINE I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH OTHER OWNERS OF FORD F-150S. I THEN CALLED FORD AND THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I HOPE YOU GUYS CAN MAKE THEM BEAR RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE OBVIOUS DEFECTS. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 FORD F150 WITH 39000 MILES ON IT , ONE DAY LAST WEEK I HEARD A LOUD POP AND THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW FELL TO THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR . THIS IS THE SECOND WINDOW THAT FAILED SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW , I HAVE HEARD FROM OTHER FRIENDS THAT THEY HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THERE 04 AND 06 MODEL TRUCKS . THIS COULD BE A SAFETY PROBLEM IF IT WAS RAINING OR SNOW . I HAVE READ ON WEB SITES THAT THIS HAPPENS TO ALL FORD F150 TRUCKS AND FORD REFUSES TO START A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM , PLUS THEY CHARGE OVER $300 TO REPAIR THE REGULATOR. *TR

I OWN A 2004 FORE F-150 CREWCAB. IN JUNE 2007 THE DRIVER WINDOW FAILED DURING OPERATION. IT WAS REPAIRED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR $262.20. IN MARCH 2008 THE PASSENGER WINDOW FAILED DURING SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCES. THE SAME MECHANIC REPAIRED THE WINDOW FOR $266.91. IN JUNE 2009 THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW FAILED DURING OPERATION. MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE IDENTIFIED THE FAILED PART WITHIN THE REGULATOR AND ARE SEEKING TO REPAIR IT OURSELVES. WE ARE EAGERLY AWAITING THE REAR DRIVER WINDOW TO FAIL AND HOPE WE ARE NOT DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN IN IT HAPPENS. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 F150 TRUCK THAT MY DECEASED HUSBAND OWNED. HE PASSED IN 2006, THEREFORE THE TRUCK SITS IN MY GARAGE MOST OF THE TIME. IT ONLY HAS 28,000 MILES ON IT. I DRIVE A 2004 MUSTANG. I WAS ROLLING THE WINDOW DOWN OVER THE WEEKEND, AND IT STARTED GRAVELING AND SUDDENTLY JUST FELL IN THE INSIDE OF THE DOOR. I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED THE TRUCK AND IT COST $390.79 FOR THEM TO REPAIR THE REGULATOR AND GIVE IT AN OIL CHANGE. I KEEP THE OIL CHANGED IN IT EVEN THOUGH I DON'T DRIVE IT MUCH. WHY IS THIS REGULATOR NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE INTERNET AND I SEE THAT A LOT OF FOLKS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 FORD F150 WITH 3140 MILES. I WAS DRIVING WHEN THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW FELL WITH NO WARNING, WHICH CAUSE ME TO ALMOST HIT ON COMING TRAFFIC. IT HAPPEN SO FAST THAT I THOUGHT I HAVE BEEN HIT THAT MADE ME LOSE MY BEEN ALERT WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I ALMOST HIT A CAR HEAD ON AND FELT SICK. I HAVE SEEN IN THE WEB JUST HOW BIG A PROBLEM FORD HAS WITH WINDOWS FALLING DOWN BUT YET THEY SAY THERE IS NO PROBLEM. THEY ARE VERY HAPPY TO HAVE FORD OWNERS PAY $300 TO $400 EVERY TIME THE WINDOWS FALL AND THEY WILL CONTINUE TO FALL. IT WILL COME THAT SOMEBODY WILL BE HURT OR KILL IN AN ACCIDENT JUST BECAUSE FORD IN NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM. I DO HOPE THAT A SERIOUS INJURY IS NOT WHAT IT TAKES FOR FORD TO CORRECT...

1. THE DRIVER'S FRONT WINDOW FAILED AND FELL DOWN INTO THE DOOR. IT WILL NOT ROLL BACK UP. IT HAS NOT YET BEEN REPLACED. APPARENTLY A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL OF VEHICLE. AS A RESCUE WORKER I SEE HOW THIS COULD BE A SAFETY PROBLEM IF THIS WERE TO HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE WINDOW COULD SHATTER AND CAUSE A WRECK. *TR

DRIVER SIDE WINDOW FELL WHILE DRIVING. *TR

WINDOW SOUNDED LIKE GRAVEL WAS IN IT, THEN WINDOW FELL WHILE DRIVING. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE 2004 F150S, AND FORD WILL NOT COVER, AND TO BOOT..THE PART ALONE IS OVER 200$ AND OF COURSE THEY STOCK THEM....BECAUSE THEY GO OUT. VOLKSWAGEN HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE, BUT WITH THEIR CLIPS, BUT THEY HAD THE GUTS TO ADMIT THEY WERE BAD AND REPLACED THEM FOR FREE.... *TR

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

I HAVE A 2004 F-150. THE WINDOW REGULATOR BROKE AND THE WINDOW WILL NOT GO UP. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. THE FIRST TIME MY TRUCK WAS PARKED IN A PARKING LOT NOT BEING USED WHILE I WAS IN AFGHANISTAN. IT WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL LOUISIANA FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY SAID IT HAPPENED ALL THE TIME. I WAS CHARGED AROUND $400 FOR THE REPAIR. ABOUT 4 MONTHS LATER THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED WHILE MY PARENTS WERE DRIVING WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE TRUCK. I ONCE AGAIN CONTACTED THE LOCAL OHIO FORD DEALERSHIP AND THE REPAIR COST IS GOING TO BE ABOUT THE SAME AS LAST TIME. I TALKED WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER WHO GAVE ME THE FORD CUSTOMER CARE NUMBER. FORD DOES NOT SEEM TO CARE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS HAPPENING. THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO OTHER THAN...

PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED FOR THE SECOND TIME, WINDOW SLAMMED AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING. DRIVERS ONE REPLACED 5 MONTHS AGO. NOW BEING TOLD THAT THE REAR TWO ARE "GOING OUT" AS WELL AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. DEALERSHIP RECOGNIZES THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE REGULATORS, CALLED FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP CENTER AND ALL THEY WOULD DO WAS OFFER ME A $750 GIFT CARD IF I AGREE TO BUY A NEW FORD TRUCK IN THE NEXT 30 DAYS. ARE THEY KIDDING!!! I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED FORD TRUCKS, BUT AM GOING TO LOOK AT THE NEW TUNDRA NOW AS I CAN SEE THAT FORD DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS, SO MUCH FOR BEING BUILT FORD TOUGH..... *TR
