Ford F-150 Visibility Power Window Devices And Controls Safety Report | May 26, 2010
Reported on May 26, 2010
| 2004 FORD F-150 A POWER WINDOW REGULATOR FAILURE IS A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM . BECAUSE THE WINDOW REGULATOR FAILS, THE WINDOW COME CRASHING DOWN. SOME COMPLAINTS READ OF THE GLASS ACTUALLY SHATTERING AND FALLING ALL OVER THE HIGHWAY. OTHERS WERE ON ROAD TRIPS OUT OF REACH OF A REPAIR SHOP. BUT WORST OF ALL, LIKE MYSELF. IT'S HAVING CHILDREN AND PETS IN THE VEHICLE WITH YOU WHILE THIS HAPPENS. WHAT IF YOU DOG DECIDES TO JUMP? WHAT IF YOU KID GETS OUT OF HIS/HER SEAT? WHAT ABOUT CHILDREN THROWING THINGS OUT THE WINDOW? WHAT ABOUT DRIVING IN BAD WEATHER AND HAVING YOUR VIEW BECOME OBSTRUCTED BY SIDEWAYS RAIN OR WORSE? IT'S ALSO A THEFT ISSUE. NO ONE KNOWS WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AND WHAT CAN YOU DO ABOUT. PRAY THAT SOMEONE DOESN'T SEIZE THE OPPORTUNITY TO STEAL YOUR TRUCK? YOU THINK YOUR INSURANCE IS GOING TO COVER YOU AGAINST THEFT WHEN THEY WOULD SAY YOU WERE NEGLIGENT FOR LEAVING THE WINDOW OPEN? *TR | |
