I started the truck and then turned on the rear defrost, which i rarely use. it was about 55 degrees outside. after about 2 minutes i heard a hissing noise that lasted for about 5 seconds and then a heard loud pop and then the windshield shattered. many other articles on the web indicate that this is a known defect with the rear defrost. i called ford and they will not offer and compensation to have it fixed even though it is a known issue. my daughter was in the back seat and got glass in her hair. *tr

When driving down the road a 35 mph my driver side window made a loud pop sound and the window fell down into the door. i had to buy a whole new window regulator assembly. i have seen this to be a problem on this site and many other online forums. there must be a defect with the regulators. mine was so bad that the cable actually frayed and snapped. this is a safety hazard that should be addressed. *tr

Rear passenger window regulator stopped working and window fell into door. had my wife done this while driving she would have been scared by the loud popping noise and potentially crashed into object injuring herself and or others. this is a common problem and ford needs to recall the trucks with the plastic parts and faulty mechanism. search the web and there are hundreds of vehicles with the same issue . years 2004-2006. ford needs to recall! *tr

We had just left our house and the driver side window fell down into the door and would not come back up. i looked on the internet and youtube to find out this has happened to 100's of the f150's. this is very dangerous because evidently it can happen to any of the windows on the truck. one of my grandchildren could have been riding with us and possible fall out a window. i understand there is no recall for this. i emailed ford about this but it stated the might not even acknowledge it. *tr

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. *js
