 Description of the problemFailure of the drivers side power window switch. Over a matter of months, the operation of the switch deteriorated. Initially, when the drivers door window switch was pressed to close, the window would hesitate. This hesitation became worse until the window would not close without repeated attempts to close the window. At times, the window had to remain open overnight and at some point in time, the close button would work again. There was no clear indicator to a condition that would initiate this problem, nor was there any procedure to return the switch to operation (aside from repeated attempts to close the window. The matter was brought top the attention of ford during the full warranty period and the drivers door window switch assembly replaced. This repair appears to have resolved the problem (it has not occurred since). This incident is being reported after learning of numerous others who have experienced this failure. These conversations were with others of f-150 and other ford vehicles of the 2005-2006 era. A high percentage have experienced this problem. If the failure occurred under the 3yr/36,000 mile warranty, switches were normally replaced with no cost to the vehicle owner. However, m large portion of people have experienced this condition shortly beyond the warranty period and have had to live with the defective switch or pay for replacement. The large number of people who have experienced this failure is indicative of a defect in the switch assembly.
