For the third time in one year i have replaced the regulator/motor on three different windows. I was on the interstate at the time and was startled when it happened. It concerns me that this continues to happen and i am glad i am generally calm so it did not cause an accident. *tr

I was driving my 2004 f150 when the passenger side window disappeared i thought the window was shot out by a gun and just about crashed into other cars on the free way this is just junk if they fall down at will. *tr

I have a 2004 ford f150 and the window suddenly dropped and know ford is telling me that i have to pay $450 to fix my window regulator. The motor still works but they are making me buy the regulator and motor. This is not the first time this has happened to me or my other friends that have ford trucks. It is a safety problem that ford needs to step up and take responsibility . *tr

2004 f-150 3 of the 4 power window regulators have failed. Two within a 5 day period while the vehicle was parked. The windows fall to the bottom into the door, this could be a very dangerous situation if a child or pet had been leaning on these windows. I demand a recall as i understand thousands of these regulators have failed and i want this situation resolved before someone is seriously injured or killed. *tr

Window regulator failure, i have a 2004 ford f-150 with 45000 miles on it, so far i have had to replace 4 window regulators @ $500 a pop, the 5th one went out today. I wasn't even using the window, just driving down the freeway and bang! A loud noise i thought something hit the truck, then i looked back and the window had fallen. Talk about economic loss. Ford doesn't seem to care. This is a hazard as well, what has…

All side windows in my 2004 f150 crew cab are failing. A window will randomly fall into door body with no warning. Last failure nearly caused an accident due to the distraction and poor weather conditions at the time. *tr

1. When rolling my passenger window up i heard a loud pop and the window fell back down into the door. 2. Now my window wont roll up and the cable on the main pulley is wrapped around the pulley axle and is kinked in several places. 3. I am having to buy a whole new regulator and maybe even a new motor for my door just so i can keep the water and bugs out of my truck and the air in. *tr

I have a ford f-150 that the right rear window and sliding electrical window have failed. The dealership wants to charge me almost $800.00 to fix it. The biggest cost is supposedly the labor for the rear sliding window. As i reviewed the complaints it is quite obvious that this is a common problem. I have owned four fords and all have had similar problems. Ford should step up and reengineer these components. *tr

Three of the four window regulators have broke causing safety and security issues. The parts are expensive and defective. The malfunction occurs when driving down the road or even when the vehicle is parked. We hear a popping noise like somebody threw something at the truck and then the window falls into the door. We have three young children and this poses a large safety risk to them. These parts are obviously…

I have a 2004 f150 supercrew. I purchased this vehicle new. I have replaced the power window regulator on 3 of the 4 windows after immediate and catastrophic failure. Without warning, the regulator fails and the window simply plummets into the door. It has been a miracle the glass has never shattered it falls so hard. Once it happened when closing a door, once while traveling down the highway, and a third time while…

Passenger rear window fell down into the door while parked. Pushing the switch to both up and down did not accomplish anything. Inspection of the problem seems to indicate that the regulator has broken. By reviewing the internet, it appears that this is a recurring problem with this vehicle. There was no indication that the part might fail. Its total failure was the first indication of any problem. I will take to…

Driver's side window fell down into the door while driving. It cost $373.60 to fix the window regulator assembly. Ford would not pay for the repair. Research on the internet proves this to be a fairly common problem with f-150's. *tr

2004 ford f150 power windows (regulator) fail. There is a "pop" and then they simply free fall into the door. 3 out of 4 windows have failed. The first 2 years ago, the other 2 in the last 4 months. A quick internet search shows this is an extremely common problem. The number of failures indicates a faulty design rather than routine wear and maintenance. Ford should cover replacement/repair cost. *tr

My 2004 ford f150 driver side front window quit moving up and down with use of the button. It still makes noise, but does move. The window does move down on its own, whenever it wants to. After researching the problem on "google", apparently, it is a very common problem with this year and model of truck. I contacted ford, and got the runnaround about them not knowing of any issues like this one. They will not fix…

As i pulled out of the parking lot at my job i heard my passenger side window slide down into the door. This is the second window on my truck that this has happen too. Im sure it wont be very long before the back two windows have the same problem. In order to repair the problem (which is the regulator that breaks) i had to take my vehicle to the local dealer to get it repaired. The cost for repair was $350.00 plus…

I have a 2004 ford f-150 lariat. I was driving on a highway at 60 miles per hour when the driver side window fell into the door all by itself - i had not hit the window switch. I took the door apart and found that the window regulator was damaged in that the plastic clips holding the cable had broken. Inspection of the clips indicate that they are woefully underdesigned to handle the stress from the weight of the…
