My $40,000 2005 F150 had the electric sliding rear window just quit working at 31,000 miles. Before I could make it to the dealer to get it fixed the drivers side window fell into the door while rolling it up. I went on the net and see where this is a common problem with 2004, 2005 F150's. I've owned 23 Fords, but I see a Toyota truck might be in my future. It appears Ford doesn't car about quality or making their customers happy anymore.

I was on my way to my birthday party with my wife when she pushed the button to roll the window up and when it reached the top we heard a loud crack! I looked up the part to fix the window and was amazed about how many complaints there are about my problem. I cant believe there has been no recall done to fix this problem. I'm pissed if they don't produce a solution. I vow to never buy a ford vehicle again. Why is our government trying to save companies that refuse to do the right thing. This is the very reason they are a struggling company in dire straits. Funny I looked at some foreign competitors recall information and all is sunny behind the rainbow.
FOR THE SAKE OF ALL OF US IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR VEHICLE PLEASE REPORT IT, IT ONLY TAKES A MINUTE AND WHO KNOWS THE BEAST MIGHT ACTUALLY DO THE RIGHT THING IF WE STICK TOGETHER.

My rear passenger window rolled halfway down by itself on my way in to work this morning. When I tried to roll it up it made a loud grinding sound therefore forcing me to manually push it up.
I can't afford a $400 repair bill. Thanks Ford for your contribution to the great depression part deux.

This is my second window regulator to go out in less than a year. My first (driver's side door) one went out the day after Thanksgiving last year and all the mechanics at the dealership had the day off work, so I had to wait until tuesday of the following week to get it fixed. Luckily it was still covered by the warranty. The second one (driver's side rear door) happened this morning on my way to work. I was able to get it in to be fixed quicker this time, but this one won't be covered because the warranty has expired. I've been trying to save up some money for a nice Christmas for my family, but this is going to put a big dent in my plans. It looks like by the number of complaints about this same problem Ford needs to stand up take care of it's customers and fix this problem. I don't think at this time Ford can afford to lose loyal customers such as myself, but when stuff like this happens it makes you want to look at different makes of vehicles. The other thing that bugs me about this problem is when this regulator goes out the window just drops down. The first time this happened to me, it did it during the night leaving it vulnerable for theft of the truck or anything I had inside. It seems like they could design these things so that the window will stay up even if the part fails.
