Side/rear Glass problems of the 2005 Ford F-150

Parking my truck in my garage, stopped, put transmission in park, closed drivers door power window, heard loud pop, sounded as if glass broke, but it did not. Window fell down into door, would not raise up. Pressing power button, I could hear motor running, but window would not move.

Driving out of a parking lot, only 10 mph or so, loud pop on passenger side door. Stopped the vehicle, and passenger window dropped down into the door. Grateful I was not going fast and had the ability to stop quickly, otherwise potential accident. Looking online, can see this is a frequent problem with this year, make, model truck. A matter of time before someone gets hurt from this.

Webasto - hollandia 700 series sunroof blew off truck going 70 miles per hour. The vehicle is a 2005 Ford F-150 king ranch super crew. On 12/26/2010 - while traveling with my wife and child from jacksonville, FL. To atlanta, GA. And on I-10 west, 5 miles from I-75 north when my sunroof suddenly ripped off the top of my truck. The sunshade was also ripped out instantaneously. Fortunately the car behind me was far enough back to swerve and avoid be hit by the glass panel and sunshade. I recovered the glass panel and sunshade.

On the F-150 trucks from years ranging 2004-2009 the power windows are failing due to a plastic piece that holds the cable in place. Once this plastic piece breaks and the weight of the glass cause it to fall into the door. The issue is this, if the plastic piece is all that keeps this window up, it is not long until car thieves find out that all they need to do is put enough pressure down ward on any of the windows and cause it to break. This issue is all over the internet, and Ford dealership are acknowledge that this is a problem, but Ford seems to think other wise.

We have a 2005 Ford F-150, my husband is deployed and the truck sits for long periods of time. On July 3rd, me and my daughter (five years old) were driving the truck when the wndow fell. What if the window would have shattered and hurt my child?? this window has been up and down maybe a hand full of times! this was by no way "an over time" incident. Ford is opting to have cheap parts produced, while never thinking of the effects on the driver or passengars! reading on line, this is a very common problem. I think its about time someone take some action and stand up to them! what if the glass would have shattered and my daughter end up in the emergency room or something? then there's more out of pocket expenses, due to neglegence on Ford's part. I'm already out of pocket 350. 00 due to Ford trying to save themselves a little money and producing yet again very cheap, !@#$% parts!!.

Windows break with no warning, with a crash into the door. This usually occurs while driving, startling the driver and possibly causing an accident.

The contact owns a 2005 Ford F-150. The consumer stated the driver's side window fell into the door, then the front passenger side window fell into the door a few months later. The dealer replaced the regulator assembly on the front driver's side window at no charge because it was still under warranty. The front passenger window was not covered because the warranty had just run out. The driver's side rear window glass fell inside the door in 2010. The back window quit working just after the warranty ran out. We never got it repaired. Each repair cost us over $300.

Leaving work I went to put down my drivers side window. I heard a loud "pop" and the window glass fell to the bottom of the door. Immediately took it to the local Ford dealer and he knew what it was from my description and advised of a $90 diagnosis charge. Two days later and 400 dollars less in my pocket, they had to replace the window regulator assembly. Apparently from all of the complaints, it is a known problem and Ford should be held responsible and the NHTSA should also take action against Ford and demand a recall.
