| Description of the problem | Over the past year of owning my 2004 ford f-150 supercrew 5. 4 ltr. Triton, i have replaced 3 out of the 4 power window regulators on the vehicle. I do not consider these normal repairs however as they have all occurred within such a short period of time and were all exactly the same in nature. The first occurred on a trip from colorado to salina ks. Over the thanksgiving holiday, i thought the failure was due to the extremely cold weather, which made most of the trip completely miserable by the way, however within 6 months another power window failure occurred and just the other day the third. I think it's ridiculous that so many persons have lodged the same complaint about these faulty components and ford made aware of the issue yet they choose to do nothing about this specific problem. |
