Description of the problem	Starting at around 15,000 miles my window regulator/motor broke in my 2008 ford escape. Currently in october of 2013 i have replaced all of the window regulators/motors (4 total) in my car. The windows broke at around 15,000 miles, 30,000 miles, 60,000 miles and now at 85,000 miles. When speaking with my ford service advisor he has stated that this is a huge issue with the ford escapes and continues to say that is really should be a recall for this make/model. The last window broke when i was driving and sounded like a gun was fired at me and my drivers side window dropped, causing me to swerve in traffic. This is a major safety concern and should be a recall. As stated all 4 of my windows have now been replaced and they cost about $380 per window to replace. Ford customer care has been unresponsive to this issue and they should be held accountable for the lack of safety of the window motors/regulators which creates an unsafe environment for the driver and all passengers in this ford model. I would strongly encourage nhtsa to review this claim seriously and recall this part, as ford is creating an unsafe environment for all individuals driving this car.
