I HAVE A 2004 F150 CREW CAB. I HAVE HAD ALL WINDOWS FALL DOWN WHILE DRIVING OR FINDING MY TRUCK SITTING PARKED WITH THE WINDOW FALLEN ALL THE WAY DOWN.. I HAVE HAD THINGS STOLEN OUT OF MY TRUCK AND THE INTERIOR SOAKED. I HAVE CALLED FORD CUSTOMER CARE EVERY TIME AND THEY DO NOT GIVE A [XXX] ABOUT THE FAULTY PLASTIC WINDOW REGULATORS THEY ARE HAVING SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH. IT IS ASHAME THEY ARE NOT BEING PROACTIVE BEFORE SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENS BECAUSE OF IT. IF MY WIFE AND CHILD WERE LOST AND IN A BAD AREA AND THE WINDOW FELL DOWN WITH NO WAY TO GET IT BACK UP SHE WOULD BE VULNERABLE. IF A STORM CAME AND SHE WAS DRIVING IN AN AREA WITH NO REFUGE IN THE COLD WITH A BABY IN THE CAR, THEN WHAT? THEY ARE ALSO NOT WILLING TO HELP PAY FOR THE REPAIR EVEN AFTER THE 3RD WINDOW HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM FURIOUS THEY ARE NOT STANDING BEHIND FAULTY PARTS THE CHOSE TO USE AND WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD AGAIN! IT IS A VERY, VERY, VERY WELL KNOWN PROBLEM. AT LEAST TOYOTA IS STANDING BEHIND THEIR SCREW UP. NO WONDER PEOPLE BUY JAPANESE. IT IS VERY DISHEARTENING. PLEASE HELP DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS.THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000, THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 80,000..............[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

HAD JUST ROLLED UP FRONT PASENGER SIDE WINDOW WHEN I HEARD A LOUD THUMP. I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND NEARLY @&*^ MY PANTS. I REALIZED THE WINDOW HAD FELL FROM IT'S TRACK AND WON'T GO BACK UP. DEALERSHIP IS CLOSED, WILL BE DRIVING WITH PLASTIC ON THE WINDOW. NOT GOOD. RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM I SEE IT IS A MAJOR ISSUE, AND LIKELY A SAFETY HAZZARD.

THIRD TIME IN 5 YEARS POWER WINDOW REGULATOR ON MY 2004 FORD F-150 HAS FAILED. FAILURE USUALLY OCCURS WHILE DRIVING. WINDOW SIMPLY FALLS INTO THE DOOR AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO PULL IT BACK UP. WERE THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT OCCUR DURING ADVERSE WEATHER, ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES ARE HIGHLY LIKELY.

2004 FORD F150 5.4L V8 XLT 2X4 SUPERCAB. APPARENTLY THE WINDOW REGULATOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE HAS FAILED. UPON INTERNET RESEARCH IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. AS A STAY AT HOME DAD OF 2 CHILDREN 2YEARS OLD AND UNDER, I SIMPLY CAN'T HAVE A WINDOW FALL INTO THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING. LUCKILY THE REGULATOR FAILED LATE AT NIGHT AND DID NOT POSE A PROBLEM WITH THE KIDS BEING IN THE VEHICLE. WINDOW DID NOT BREAK BUT WILL NOT OPERATE. *CN

WINDOWS WOULD ROLL UP AND DOWN NORMALLY WITH NO PROBLEM. ONE DAY IN FEB. OF 2010 MY PASENGER BACKSEAT WINDOW FELL DOWN HALFWAY INTO THE DOOR. I COULD NOT USE MY POWER SWITCH AT ALL. IN FACT WHEN I TRIED IT GAVE OFF A BURNT SMELL. I WAS TOLD TO REPLACE THE WINDOW REGULATOR. I COULDN'T FIND ONE LOCALLY SO I TEMPORARALY FIXED IT BY PUTTING A HEAVY DUTY PIECE OF CARDBOARD IN THE DOOR TO HOLD THE WINDOW UP. NO MORE THAN ABOUT 2 WEEKS LATER, MY DRIVERSIDE BACKSEAT WINDOW DID THE EXACT SAME THING. SO I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND A NEW PAIR TO REPLACE THE BROKEN ONES. THEN ON 3/22/2010 WHILE DRIVING, MY DRIVERSIDE FRONT WINDOW BEGAN TO CREEP DOWN. I TRIED THE SWITCH AND SLAM! THE WINDOW FELL ALL THE WAY INTO THE DOOR. I CAN'T EVEN PULL IT OUT ENOUGH TO TAPE IT SHUT. I AM TRUELY UPSET BECAUSE NOT ONLY IS THIS A HUGE INCONVIENIENCE, BUT A SAFETY HAZZARD. EACH WINDOW REGULATOR IS ROUGHLY $130-$145 DEPENDING ON WHICH SIDE IS NEEDED. THIS PRICE IS PICKED UP, NOT AN INSTALLED QUOTE. MY PARTS ARE ORDERED AND ON THIER WAY.

THERE ARE FACTORY MADE SQUARE HOLES UNDER THE SIDES OF THE TRUCK. WHEN IT RAINS, THE WHEELS SPLASH WATER INTO THESE HOLES. THE WATER COMES UP INTO THE FLOOR OF THE TRUCK. INSIDE THE TRUCK THERE IS A PLASTIC PANEL ALONG THE EDGES OF THE DOOR THAT POPS OUT. IT IS THE SQUARE HOLES THAT IT POPS OUT OF THAT THE WATER COMES IN THROUGH. I CAN STICK MY FINGER FROM THE UNDER OUTSIDE IF THE TRUCK AND SEE THEM THRU THE HOLES THAT HOLD THE PLASTIC PANELING ON THE INSIDE. THE WATER COLLECTS ALONG WHERE ALL THE ELECTRICAL WIRES ARE RUNNING AND SOAKS UP INTO THE CARPET. *TR
