| Description of the problem | My mother and sister were driving the truck when they heard a very loud noise and then the driver side window fell all the way down. They were unable to lift the window back up. This was the first incident. The second incident happen when i woke up last week on november 9, 2008, went out side my home and noticed that the passenger front window was down. I tried to raise up but it would not move, it appeared that the same thing had happen to this window as the one on the driver side. I took the truck to my mechanic to take a look at it and sure enough the same thing had happen to this window as the driver side window; the regulator assembly had fail which made the window fall down. In both instances i had to replace both parts; i have so far paid about five hundred dollars to fix this defect. I searched the internet and noticed that i am not the only person that has had this problem. |
