About one month ago, 2004 f150 back front driver side window fell because the regulator stopped working. I big pop was heard before the window started to fall. I had it repaired for about $300.

I was driving my ford f-150 pickup into my garage. I pushed the window button to roll down my window and my window dropped to the bottom of my door in a split second. I heard the window glass break. I will be contacting the dealer tomorrow to get the window replaced along with the defective window regulator. I will likely have to have all 4 regulators replaced so this doesn't happen while i am driving or while my…

After further inspection, it was discovered that a plastic piece that hold the window regulator cable had broke. I am lucky that nobody had stolen my belongings.

2004 ford f-150 crew cab windows failed. The first happened while driving on an interstate at 70mph; there was a loud noise like a rock hit the passenger door, and the window fell into the door frame. Cost to repair: $385. Today the driver side window failed in the same manner. I understand from the internet, that this is a failure of the electric window regulator. Apparently, ford refuses to acknowledge this as a…

I was driving my 2004 f150 on the highway. At speed there was a very loud pop and the window fell into the door (i found out later). I had thought it shattered. Startled, i swerved. It could have been bad. Later i found out it was the window regulator, come to find out this is one of the biggest failure items on the 2004. F150. This is a hazard and ford knows about it. They should own up and fix it. *tr

Both times i was on highways or toll roads when the windows fell in the door and i was unable to pull off to remedy the situation. After searching for remedies online i have found that this a common problem with ford trucks. Why hasn't ford offered a recall for this failure. When my drivers door…

3 power window regulators replaced on my f-150 super cab ford lariat truck...driving down the road on 3 separate occasions and wham the window drops down in the door. Happened in 2007, 2009, 2010. $350 each time to get fixed. I'm sure a major thorough investigation regarding the window regulator issue with ford would turn up 1000's upon 1000's of incidents and replacements. This is an obvious problem. While i blame…

Faulty window regulator components. I replaced driver side, rear passenger (2004 f150 lariat crew cab) window regulator. Seemed to be an old part that had to be replaced, until a few months, the passenger side, rear passenger window regulator also failed. Now it is a concern. The reason for the complaint now is because my 3rd regulator busted, this time it was the front passenger window regulator that failed. Now…

Window regulator on my 2004 f-150 broke - luckily it occurred when the window was already down (not closed). I have been told this is a defect in the 2004 models, yet no recalls? I have kids and am afraid something bad can happen in the future if this hazard is indeed recurring. *tr

3rd power window regulator failure in 1.5 yrs on 2004 ford f-150 supercrew truck. When regulator fails, it sounds as though someone struck or shot the window causing me to jump and take my eyes off the road to see what had happened and if any passengers were injured almost causing me to collide with an on-coming vehicle. I have had two of the regulators replaced by a local paint and body shop where i was told that…

While i was driving the truck on local roads, the passenger side electrically controlled window which was fully up suddenly slowly receded down into the door of the truck and now cannot be raised back up. The window is not broken, and the noise when i press the window control seems to indicate that the motor is still working properly. I have called several repair shops (and the dealer), and the conclusion so far…
