Window rattle

I have a 2003 F250 Lariat 4 door 4 wheel drive longbed. I am having a problem with the driver window. I have had it in 3 or 4 times for this problem. It rattles over certain roads, and the motor does not hold up all the way. It never comes down enough to create a visible crack. There is an audible shifting down of the window after you roll it up all the way. None of the other windows do this. I have had my wife drive the truck over the same roads at the same speeds while I sit in the other seats one by one to see if any of the other windows rattle and they do not. I say rattle for lack of a better description, but it is not what I would normally call a rattle. A rattle to me is some pebbles in a tin can. The dealer has supposedly "fixed" this each time, and within 100 miles the problem is back. Any suggestions?
