Ford Fiesta Windows (electric)

Hi guys,

When I put my windows up (driver side or passenger side) and start driving - they seem to make a crackling sound as if it is too tight?

I have recently got a new Fiesta - the same thing happened on my previous one.

Not sure if this is something that everyone is experiencing or not? Let me know if you have & you have found a cure!

I have noticed it is worst in the heat :/

Many thanks

    I have something like this too and some others have also complained about it. I think it could be due to the heat, and the trim expanding so that the windows rattle a bit (and other bits of trim inside start rattling and driving me crazy).

    Oh, so not just me then! :rolleyes:

    Anything you can recommend to help? Nice Fiesta by the way!

    Thanks :). I haven't done anything to stop my windows from rattling because it tends to go away a few minutes after they are closed. Does yours rattle constantly?

    Yeah, same mine goes away after a few minutes!

    Might go into my local ford & ask!! I'll let you know what they say!

    Mine seem to do the same but only when they are half way down.

    Mine is only the drivers side though the passenger window doesn't do it
