    Windows slow to roll.....??

    Power window motor and regulator These things are notoriously bad in the Expedition. I just had my passenger front motor and regulator replaced. I don't recall exactly how much it was but total, it was in the neighbourhood of $250.00. I had my mechanic lube the drivers side as well........
