    1) no particular event preceded this failure. 2) passenger power window fell down due to failed window regulator plastic part on 2005 ford f-150 fx4 supercab with 32k miles while parked outside at workplace. Luckily the consequences were limited but could have been much worse, such as theft, interior damage due to weather, or a passenger safety hazard. 3) failure was corrected by replacing entire window regulator…

    My 2005 ford f-150 front passenger side window fell in the door. While driving down a smooth road in a residential area i heard a huge crack, then the window literally fell in the door and would not come up. The crack sounded like a gunshot and could have resulted in serious injuries. Repairs from the ford dealer are estimated at 400 or more dollars. *tr

    The window regulator linkage continually break. First incident was the driver's side door, and on 7/14/14, the right rear door. By the number of complaints on the web, it is obvious these regulators have a manufacture defect that causes premature failure. The only window fall into the door when the device is operated. *tr

    While driving my 2005 ford f150, the back window slid down. My daughter pushed the button to roll it up and a loud crunching sound with a pop followed. The function of the button is no longer operable. This is the second time this type of occurrence has happened, which has resulted in approximately $800 in repairs. The first time was over a year ago on the driver's window. *tr
