It can happen at anytime and i hope it isn't monsoon season like it is for me when it happens. I was just rolling up my window and when it reached the top something snapped. The window slip back down into the door. This isn't the first time or the second, this is the third time around. Check out any web site on ford trucks and this will be the top complaint. Some may say that the door windows aren't a safety issue,…

When i got home, i removed the door panel to find what looked like a wound up spool of fishing line. Instead it was the window regulator that had…

Window regulator spontaneously failed while vehicle in motion causing the window to "drop" into the door, very startling - loud "popping sound"! Had this occurred during bad weather or under a number of other conditions i would have had a major problem. *tr

2004 ford f-150 window regulator failure. Caused by poor construction and materials. Hazard to occupants as windows fall down totally unexpected. It costs over $350 per window to fix. Ford has failed to provide a correct replacement under warranty. This poor quality item effects all f and e series vehicles from 2004 to 2009. Ford should issue and pay for a recall to replace these units. *tr

Bought this truck used with no warranty. Within 1 year, 3 of the windows in my 2004 ford f150 have slid down into the door with me being unable to roll it back up. The first two times it cost ~$350 each time. I am now saving up money to fix it a third time. This third time, it happened to a window that was fixed last year, making this the second occurrence for that window. I have read numerous customer complaints…

My window fell all by itself. Turns out it is the regulator, and the window will not go back up. The only place the part is available is through the dealer, and it costs 254.00 plus tax and labor to install. *tr

I purchased my truck used from the local ford dealership when it was three years old, it was a certified used vehicle. Roughly one year later the driver window fell into the door and when i pressed the switch to put it back up, i heard a grinding noise come from the electric motor and the window did not budge. It cost me roughly 400.00 dollars from ford to replace it. This past weekend i was driving along and the…

I have a 2004 ford f150 and i have had nothing but problems with the windows. I have had 3 of my window regulators go out on this truck and its only 5 years old. I feel this a major problem with these trucks since i know i am not the only person who has had this same problem. First i hear a loud bang in the door (even when i'm not operating the window) and then the window drops. This is a safety concern since i have…

This is the fourth time i have had to replace the window regulator on my truck. Its a major pain when it does happen, and it never fails to happen at the worse times. All four times (once for each of the four windows) it has happened while i am just driving along and the window just falls into the door. It is really expensive to fix at the dealer ($400). *tr

I own a 2004 ford f-150 fx4. I have had the regulators on both my driver side window and rear passenger side window. Both went out at separate times but both while i was driving. This is a huge safety problem. Thank god when this occurred i didn't have children in the back seat as the window fell so hard it could have shattered on them. This is my 4th ford vehicle and my family has been a true ford family for years…

We have a 2004 f150 with 30,000 miles on it. Our front passenger window fell down while we had it parked at the airport for 3 days so no one was touching it and it was closed. We could not pick it up so when we got home we got the window up. We can not roll this window down and have it up with tape. We were told that it is not covered and has not been recalled but there have been many complaints according to the…

I opened the panel and wires were everywhere i took it to a mechanic and he replaced the whole window harness. This happened about a year ago.

I believe that the ford regulator is a very big safety issue. A window that can just fall down into the bottom of the door with no warning. Here is why i find it a safety issue. I live in nebraska and i deal with some pretty nasty weather . My wife and i are expecting our fist child and if we go somewhere in the middle of winter and the window falls down in a snow storm this could cause a threat to my new born. I…
