Window Popping Open

[Kubik603]

Anyone else having an issue with the top of a window popping out/open when driving? It doesn’t happen all the time but it will do it at least once a week. It’s dependent on the wind and the direction it’s blowing. Rolling it down and back up doesn’t fix the problem. I have to open the door and close it to make it reseal and then it still doesn’t stay. I will also add that when opening and closing that door the window will rattle around and make noise, none of the others do this.

I have taken it to my dealer. They want to order new weather stripping but I’m not confident in that being the solution. Any ideas or anyone else with this problem??

Mine has done that a couple of times in severe cross winds. I've also read of others here. I don't think weatherstripping will fix it... The whole window design on these is terrible.

No issues here and the design is the same as any other coupe with no frame...

Maybe they need to be adjusted? Try the fix for the Bronco window rattle to see if that helps.

Definitely worth a shot! Thanks for sharing.

I was told Ford did this so they are easier to store. I would rather have the door with tracks as on the....spoiler alert....close your eyes...JEEP! The day will come when this gets changed.

Hi there. Can you send us a DM with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into this for you.

I have had my drivers window pop out like that while doing 75mph with a 40mph cross winds on the interstate. Found the first exit I could, cycled the window up/down and slowed my speed down and had no more issues that day.

I did this about 2 months ago. It worked immediately to eliminate the rattle, way better than when I brought it to the dealer.

After about 2 months, Ive noticed it has come back however it is less severe and the margin of being open in wich it rattles seems to have been reduced.

Just my personal experience. Was easy and quick enough to do.
