| Description of the problem | While driving on the freeway my passenger side window unexpectedly fell through the door. When i pressed the button to open the window a tad the regulator broke and the window began to fall. A week later the second back passenger window came crashing down also. Thankfully it was while i was at the store and the car was stationary. I had to fix this out of pocket last week for about 700. 00 for both windows, the repair guy at ford said this wasn't covered or issued as a recall. Now fastforward to yesterday, my side driver window comes falling down and i had to use a doorstop to hold it up. I feel this is a widespread issue that ford has not come to terms with. This should have been a recall issued years ago. Checking the internet there a numerous sites where angry customers of ford are experiencing this problem way to frequently.(ex. Http://www. Carcomplaints. Com/ford/f150/2004/windows_windshield/window_does_not_roll_up. Shtml) we have always bought ford, but with the recent problems this might change. |
