| I have read many complaints just like mine, ford told some people they had way too many complaints to do anything about a recall on this. last year the drivers window popped and the window dropped inside the door i went to ford bought the cable and regulator and had a window company replace it. 2 weeks ago same thing on the passengers front window, next day the passengers back window dropped while i was in my house, the drivers back window is the only one left. this truck is a 2005 the parts are not that old. *tr | |||

| While entering an on ramp to get onto the freeway, i heard a loud pop and the next thing i know, the window is down and i cannot roll it back up. i've taken it to the ford dealership where i've told them not to let the window down (they do it anyway) and then i have to waste more time having them manually roll the window back up in hopes that it will stay up. then, about a year later, the passenger side window has now fallen down in the middle of the night! needless to say, i'm thankful that my truck wasn't stolen overnight while i was sleeping because of the window randomly falling, again! i'm tired of putting money into this truck and looking to go to another vehicle that is not a ford. if i knew i could file a complaint when the initial incident happened, i would have done so with no hesitation. | |||

| Power windows devices & controls - window regulator failure my wife and i drove my 2005 ford f150 to pick up my son up from kindergarten and while driving home, going approximately 25 mph during a severe florida thunder storm we heard a loud pop, then crackle which sounded like it came from the drivers side of the truck. i pulled over in the storm to see if anything struck the door. since i saw nothing i pulled back onto the road and continued to drive home, then all of a sudden the front drivers side window abruptly flew down into the door and dissappeared. my 5 year old son who was sitting directly behind me on the driver's side in his car seat, was terrified, crying and wet from rain flying in the window, we were 5 minutes from home and pulled into the garage. my son and i were soaked and all three of us were shaken. i have recently found out the issue was caused by a window regulator failure. this could have caused an accident and is highly dangerous, especially with a small child in the car. when researching the issue further i found that there are numerous complaints from consumers, however ford has not responded, nor addressed this extremely hazardous issue. currently my window is taped with a bag to cover the window hole as we don't have the funds to fix this issue since both wife and i were laid off recently. this issue is not just about the cost it's a safety concern that needs to be reviewed. is it a faulty part on the manufacturer's side, is it a ford engineering problem? what does it take for a recall? do individuals need to be hurt or worse die in order for a recall. shame on ford for letting an issue like this receive multiple consumer complaints with no action or resolution. this is not normal wear and tear. | |||
