I HAVE HAD MY 2004 F150 XLT SUPERCREW FOR A YEAR NOW AND THE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR IN ALL 4 WINDOWS HAVE BROKEN DURING THAT SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THE MOST RECENT FAILURE HAPPENED ON THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW LAST NIGHT. SEARCHING THE INTERNET SHOWS THAT THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES, BUT FORD WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL. *TR

NO EVENT LEADING TO FAILURE - TO MY KNOWLEDGE POOR HANDLING, UNEVEN TIRE WEAR, DISCOVERED BOTH FRONT SPRINGS BROKEN AT 120,000 MILES TRUCK IS USED PRETTY MUCH AS A PASSENGER VEHICLE CURRENTLY REPLACING BOTH FRONT SPRINGS. *TR

TWO OF THE FOUR WINDOW REGULATORS HAVE BROKE CAUSING SAFETY AND SECURITY ISSUES. THE PARTS ARE EXPENSIVE AND DEFECTIVE. THE LAST MALFUNCTION OCCUED WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE PASSENGER WINDOW FELL WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. I HEARD A POPPING NOISE LIKE SOMEBODY THREW SOMETHING AT THE TRUCK AND THEN THE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR. MY WIFE AND I HAVE TWO YOUNG CHILDREN AND THIS POSES A LARGE SAFETY RISK TO THEM. THESE PARTS ARE OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY.
