Consumer Description

IT HAPPENED ON TWO OCCASIONS. I WAS DRIVING AND DECIDED TO ROLL DOWN MY PASSENGER WINDOW. I NORMALLY KEEP IT CLOSED. AFTER A WHILE, DECIDED TO CLOSE IT AND ROLLED UP BUT IT OVERSHOOT THE WINDOW FRAME, THAT THE GLASS ALMOST FELL OFF. I HAD TO STOPPED AND MANUALLY PUSH IT BACK IN. I SUCCESSFULLY ROLLED IT UP AND KEPT IT THERE FOR A WEEK UNTIL MY SON ROLLED IT DOWN LAST MARCH 1ST,2015. IT NO LONGER WILL ROLL UP. I TOOK MY CAR TO PALM BEACH LEXUS ON THAT SAME DAY. APPARENTLY THE PLASTIC CLIP BROKE OFF AND THE ENTIRE WINDOW HAS TO BE REPLACED, FOR 600 USD. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS (MOSTLY ES350), BASED ON THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINS THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A DEFECT AND COSTUMERS SHOULDN'T BE PAYING FOR THE REPLACEMENT. *TR
