The driver side door window broke. I was at cvs and rolled the window down and it wouldn't roll back up. My husband took the door apart to get the window up but it won't stay up. We have checked and are having a hard time finding the part. Seems it's a dealer only part, we are checking junkyard because the part is almost $200 for the part, and this is the second time we have had to fix the window in this truck. The…

I own a 2004 f150 and had the driver's side power window regulator fail on my truck as have thousands of other people from what i am reading online. I was traveling 65 miles per hour when my window fell into my door. The day prior i rolled my window up at the post office and heard a crunching or cracking sound as the window reached the top. I too did not think much of it until my window fell in. To correct the…

I have a 2004 ford f-150 lariat with 83,000 miles on it. About 5 months a cable popped on my driver's side front window and the window fell. Now, 5 months later the drivers side rear window did the same thing. A loud pop then the window fell. Apparently this is a common problem in ford vehicles and ford refuses to fix them. Not to mention, it's costly for the owners to fix at $350-$400 per window this is a potential…

Tl*the contact owns a 2004 ford f-150 superduty. The contact stated that the motor for the windows failed within the first 18 months of ownership. The driver, passenger rear and front passenger side motors have all failed. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who stated that because there were no related recalls, he would be responsible for repair costs. The vin was unavailable. The manufacturer had not…

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…

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

This safety concern is in regards to the power window regulators found in my 2004 ford f-150. The first window regulator (driver's side) went out while in north dakota. There was no warning just a loud pop, followed by the window falling in the door. The passenger side window regulator broke one week later to the day. When both of these broke, i was left with near zero visibility inside the cab of my truck while…

Both rear windows in my 2004 ford f150 broke at the same time and the windows dropped to the floor. I have had these replaced twice already and they keep breaking. I was just sting at a light then heard something like a rock hit the side of the truck then the window just dropped it was the cables that hold the windows up snapping. I have three very young children and live where there are extreme temps. I cannot have…

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…

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
