 Description of the problemI own a 2004 ford f150 and on dec 21, 2008 my rf window came crashing down and scared me half to death. The window was rolled up and just fell into the door making a loud noise. I was an hour and a half away from home traveling on a 2 lane highway that is very hilly, curvy and usually windy. It is one of 2 hwys that lead in and out of a very popular offroad area called ocotillo wells. Most of the traffic on that road consists of big trucks with trailers full of quads, motorcycles, buggies and family members. I seriously almost flew off the road because i was so shaken for that moment. It was so sudden and loud that i thought my window had been shot out. People do hunt in the area so not a far fetched conclusion. I got home safely and had the window repaired the next day. Yesterday, april 5, 2009 it happened again. I was with my pregnant wife and 2 dogs on our way home. This time it was the rr window. It came crashing down in the same manner and scared us half to death, again. This time one of my dogs nearly jumped in my lap making it difficult to drive. The remainder of the ride consisted of my wife trying to keep one of my dogs from almost falling out the window. Nothing like wind in the face for some dogs!!! My truck is in the shop again today with this same repair/safety issue. I'm writing this because i have read numerous accounts on the internet regarding this same issue. I'm very frustrated that this problem can actually cause someone to lose control of their vehicle and crash. I know this first hand because it has happened to me twice since dec 21, 2008. I still have 2 more windows that have not broken and have no idea when they will come crashing down. Will my family and i be statistics because of and really cheap part??? Or will i kill someone's family??? I am also not pleased with the fact that they are charging all of us almost $400 per window to fix the problem. Ford should be fixing this problem. A very concerned, jeff shores
