2004 Ford F-150 Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	881839

Brand	FORD
Model	F-150
Model Year	2004
File date	02/05/11
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	All 4 windows regulators broke within a span of 4 months. Window regulators have a steel cable which adheres to a plastic pulley--who designed this poor compatibility? Common sense will tell you that this is not conducive to wear and tear for electric windows. Vehicle is in excellent shape accept for this problem which as a consumer is unacceptable due to inferior products used. Aluminum or another type of metal should have been used for the pulley--definitely not plastic. Reported to ford--can't and won't do anything about this but tell me to take to ford dealer for repairs and pay an outrageous amount for the labor and regulator. I spoke with a local ford service manager and he revealed to me that ford knows this is a problem with several of their vehicles and also the lincolns but because of the cost incurred by issuing a recall that they chose to "wash it under the rug". This is an unacceptable excuse as far as i am concerned. 4 window regulators in a 4 month span to break--something needs to be addressed and brought to ford's management and design departments. *kb
