| Description of the problem | 2004 ford f150 - windows suddenly drop into door while driving. There are thousands and thousands of complaints on the www for this problem - please issue a safety recall this happened twice to me while the vehicle was in motion (while driving). Just trying to find out what made a noise and having my children suddenly pelted by rain and other road debris is a serious, serious, safety issue. I believe i've read that nhtsa has "petitioned" ford to issue the recall, however, they have clearly stated to their consumers that they will do absolutely nothing unless nhtsa issues a safety recall. Please help consumers have the voice your organization was designed for - to not have manufacturers ignore consumer safety issues that can cause injury and even death. If your organization cannot help, who else can we turn to since the manufacturer is completely ignoring the consumer safety problem??? |
