Ford F150 - Window issue (but it hasnt fallen yet!??)

tigerbalm2424

I just bought the truck less than two weeks ago(this is my FIRST ever ford! ). Its a 2005 FX4 with 10K miles on it.

The passenger window makes wierd noise when rolling down which just started out of nowhere. Its not metal/glass grinding, its more like a "rubb rub rub rub" type of sounds. I had rolled it up and down more than a dozen times before this noise started and it was fine. It sounds normal when rolling up and still goes up/down at the same speed.

Any idears?

take it apart to see or be prepared for it to fall because it seems like it has been a problem with 04+ f150s

If you have warranty left, or extended warranty on the truck, get it to the dealer and get that checked out.

If it only occurs when you let the window down, look at the outer rubber ban/stip(at the bottom of the window). Our Expedition occas will invert a part of the outer rubber stip as the window goes down(catches) causing a rubbing noise. If so, use your finger and seperate the rubber from the window. Works for a while, then have to redo. Just a thought
