“I have a 2005 Ford f-150 I have had problems with three of the windows now falling down into the door because the clip on the window regulators keep breaking. This is a real safety hazard as one time I even had the grandkids in the backseat and did not even know what was happening and could then not roll up the window for their safety. Ford charges $450 for this part each time and has admitted repeated problems with this however has not recalled this item to date. This has happened to me with three different windows within a 6 month period. …”
