Consumer Description

I HAVE OWNED A 2003 AND 2006 VW NEW BEETLE CONVERTIBLES AND HAVE HAD 3 WINDOW REGULATORS FAIL. ALL ON THE BACK SIDE WINDOWS. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE THEY FAIL FOR NO REASON. THE LAST FAILURE WAS 02/26/2011. I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE AND PUT THE WINDOW DOWN AND IT WOULD NOT ROLL BACK UP. I WAS 50 MILES AWAY FROM HOME. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING TO HAPPEN FOR THE 3RD TIME BUT DIFFERENT WINDOW EACH TIME. *TR
