Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The following is a copy of the "inquiry/concern" sent to the ford motor company relationship center: the right front electric window malfunctioned on 2/18/00 at 42,134 miles. it cost me a $50 deductible to replace a defective regulator because i had purchased the extended warranty. the left rear window malfunctioned on 11/28/00 at 51,983 miles. it cost a $50 warranty deductible to replace a faulty regulator. the driver's left front window malfunctioned on 12/26/00 at 52,465 miles. it cost a $50 deductible to replace a defective regulator. the right rear window malfunctioned on 7/3/03 at 90,201 miles. it cost $209 to replace a defective regulator. cycle complete. any pattern here? ford's response was surprise at the consistent defects in their regulators. they couldn't assist financially because i had used an independent to fix the last window while trying to keep costs low. was this experience unique? *jb
