 Description of the problemI am the owner of a 2005 ford f150 supercab truck. I recently had another power window regulator fail on my vehicle. This failure occurred while i was driving down the road at a speed of about 35mph. This is the second regulator that has been replaced on this vehicle (the first one occurred three years ago). When this failure occurs the window just drops completely down into the door with no warning. When this failure occurs while you are driving it causes a very big distraction to the driver and passengers of the vehicle. Three years ago, when the first regulator failed, i had my vehicle parked (luckily at home) and i noticed that the window was in the down position. I recalled rolling the window up when i parked my vehicle, so i got in it to put the window in the up position. After turning the ignition on and pressing the up button, nothing happened. This time it was the drivers window. I am very fortunate to have not parked my vehicle in a public place when this failure occurred because it would have given anyone access to the inside of my vehicle. Although the failures did not result in any injury or losses, this is a very important issue concerning vehicle safety. I conducted some internet research on this issue and it appears that other 2004-2005 f150 owners have had the same issue with these window regulators. I am very concerned that the remaining 2 windows will fail over time. On both occasions, i took my vehicle to the local dealership to have a replacement window regulator installed. One of the regulator replacements was covered under warranty and the most recent one was not. This repair cost was $220. I feel that this is an issue that regular maintenance nor normal vehicle care could prevent. This is a definite equipment flaw that the owner has no warning of when it will occur. Therefore i feel that these regulators should be investigated because it poses a safety issue to the vehicle owner as well as other drivers on the roadway.
