| Description of the problem | 1. My truck was sitting in the driveway not being driven or anything and the right rear passenger window fell into the door. 2. If the weather had not been so nice my truck would be full of water or snow. 3. I purchased the extended warranty so it is getting replaced, but i have read about this failure and am planning on owning this truck for long after the warranty is over with. It sounds like even if the part is fixed that it will fail again and will continue to fail until the part is replaced with a stronger more suitable part that will stand up to the forces involved for the life of the vehicle instead of just about 40k miles and until it is out of warranty. This part is close to 400 bucks installed and the truck has 4 windows. That is a potential of 1600 bucks every 40k miles. I would appreciate a recall or a service bulletin to make sure that all of us f150 owners are protected against all this excess cost. |
