| Description of the problem | While driving home on the highway my right rear window came crashing down. My 8 year-old daughter was sitting next to the window and she screamed. This is the 4th time this has happened. I know the window regulator has gone out. Now i have an appointment to have the window repaired again!!! I am told it is a wear and tear item. Having all windows in you vehicle drop at any moment and any speed it not normal. I have never had this happen with any other vehicle. When the window drops it is loud, causes you to over correct thinking you have a flat or hit something and any loose papers you have in the vehicle start flying around. Thankfully we didn't have a wreck and this is the fourth time i am having to pay for a repair that should be recalled. Note: this is not on a window that is opened/closed very often. |
