2004 ford f150 supercrew. For the 5th time one of the windows has dropped into the door due to the regulator malfunctioning. The first 3 times were covered by the extended warranty i purchased. However, this will be the second one i will have to pay for. Each time, all ford does is replace the regulator and tell me i must have gotten a bad one. This is 5 windows in 5 years. *tr

My drivers side window just fell open while driving and would not go back up. After investigating the power window unit had broken. 7 days later the same thing happened to the rear passenger window. The dealer told me this is common and is a defect but ford refuses to recall them. The dealer said it will most likely happen to your other 2 windows as well! $400 each to repair. *tr

I talked to regency and rick said it was the second he had heard of. Mine is being fixed now but anyone else who owns one of these vehicles is at risk of an…
