3 MONTHS AGO MY REAR PASSENGER WINDOW ON MY 2004 F-150 FAILED AND CAME CRASHING DOWN, FORD REFUSES TO REPLACE IT, NOW MY DRIVER DOOR WINDOW HAS DONE THE SAME THING AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK DUE TO STARTLING ME, FORD REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE DUE TO A FAULTY REGULATOR IN THE DOOR OR DEFECTIVE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE WINDOW JUST CRASHING DOWN WHILE YOUR DRIVING. *TR

WE WERE RIDING DOWN THE LOCAL INTERSTATE WITH TRAILER IN TOW WHEN THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW FELL DOWN. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED ON THIS VEHICLE. FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED WITH THE BACK PASSENGERS WINDOW. THANKS TO GOOD EFFORT AND DRIVING EXPERIENCE NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED IN EITHER INCIDENT. FORD DEALER WILL ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE WINDOW REGULATOR BUT WILL NOT REPLACE THEM. *TR

A HUMMING NOISE BEGAN TO EMANATE FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. I TOOK IT INTO MY GARAGE TO HAVE IT LOOKED INTO. I WAS TOLD THAT THE GEARS HAD NOT BEEN ALIGNED PROPERLY AND HAD WORN OUT WITH JUST OVER 34000 MILES ON THE TRUCK.. I'VE BEEN TOLD BY FORD MECHANICS THAT THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THE FORD F-150 TRUCK AND CAN OCCUR WITH AS LITTLE AS 5000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. FORD SAYS THAT IT ISN'T A PROBLEM UNTIL THEY'VE BEEN TOLD BY YOUR NHTSA SAYS SO AND ISSUE A RECALL. WHY? THE PROBLEM IS KNOWN TO EXIST BY FORD BUT IF YOUR OUT OF WARRANTY THEN IT'S THE OWNERS PROBLEM SO GO FIX IT YOURSELF. IS THE NHTSA AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM? ARE YOU WILLING TO STEP UP AND ORDER FORD TO MAKE THE NECESSARY REPAIRS? IT'S A PROBLEM OF THEIR OWN MAKING AND THEY PUSH IT OFF TO THE UNSUSPECTING BUYER. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 FORD F150. DRIVING HOME FROM WORK THE ROAD THE RIGHT REAR WINDOW FELL DOWN INTO THE DOOR. I CANNOT LEAVE MY TRUCK OUTSIDE OVERNIGHT WITH THE WINDOW DOWN SO I HAD TO DISASSEMBLE THE DOOR TO FIX THE WINDOW UP. THE CABLE ATTACHMENTS IN THE REGULATOR HAD BROKEN ALLOWING THE WINDOW TO FALL. HAD I BEEN GOING SOMEWHERE OTHER THAN HOME THIS WOULD BE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. IF IT WAS ON THE HIGHWAY IT COULD BE DANGEROUS. WHAT IF MY SMALL CHILDREN WERE BACK THERE WHEN IT FELL? *TR

I OWN A 2004 FORD F150 TRITON XLT. IN LESS THAN A YEAR, BOTH THE FRONT DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER WINDOWS HAVE BECOME INOPERABLE. THE WINDOW REGULATOR HAS TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AND FOUND IT TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND FEEL FORD SHOULD BE DOING A RECALL ON THIS. THE FIRST WINDOW HAS BEEN FIXED, WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING THE PART FOR A SECOND ONE NOW. EACH REPAIR AT A FORD DEALER COSTS MORE THAN $400.00. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 FORD F150 LARIAT SUPER CREW CAB. IN THE PAST 2 YEARS I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE POWER SWITCHES AND REGULATORS REPLACED IN THREE DOORS ON MY TRUCK. THE LATEST BEING FRIDAY, JULY 16, 2010. I HAVE LOOKED ON NUMEROUS SITES ON THE INTERNET AND SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS TRUCK. I CALLED FORD AND THEY SAY IT IS NOT A PROBLEM FROM THEIR STANDPOINT. THIS IS A VERY COSTLY PROBLEM TO REPAIR AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

1. THE DOOR WINDOW QUITS WORKING AND GETS STUCK IN THE DOWN POSITION. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS WHILE I WAS DRIVING. IT JUST WENT DOWN AND STAYED THERE. IT HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY WHILE IN MY DRIVEWAY. I WENT TO ROLL UP THE WINDOW BECAUSE IT WAS ABOUT TO START RAINING AND IT WOULDN'T ROLL UP. THE PROBLEM IS THE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR. 2. THE FAILURE OCCURRED TWICE. ONCE ABOUT A YEAR AGO ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, AND TODAY THE PASSENGERS SIDE. BOTH TIMES I HAD TO TAKE THE DOOR PANEL APART AND MANUALLY MOVE THE WINDOW UP AND PROP IT UP WITH A BOARD IN CASE IT RAINED. I HAD TO DO THE SAME THING TODAY. LUCKILY I WAS AT HOME AND HAD A CANOPY TO WORK UNDER WHILE IT WAS RAINING. I'VE BEEN LUCKY BOTH TIMES, BUT IT COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE IF IT FAILS AGAIN OR THE BACK WINDOWS FAIL WHILE ON THE FREEWAY DURING THE RAIN. 3. I HAD THE WINDOW REGULATOR REPLACED. *TR

2004 F 150 REAR PASSENGER WINDOW SLAMS DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME, FIRST TIME IT WAS THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DURING THE WINTER BLIZZARD OF 2010 AND NOW DURING JULY 2010.
