2000 BUICK REGAL Visibilitypower Window Devices And Controls Problems

2000 BUICK REGAL WITH 50,000 MILES. BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED IN 2007. ALL 4 WINDOW REGULATORS BROKE AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF ALMOST 1600$ CANADIAN. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH I FIND THAT THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM ON BUICKS.. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED BY GM AT THERE EXPENSE. *TR

I HAVE OWNED A 2000 BUICK REGAL SINCE 2001. A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE DRIVER'S SIDE ELECTRIC WINDOW STARTING OPERATING ERRATICALLY - SOMETIMES IT WOULD NOT WORK AT ALL; OTHER TIMES IT WOULD. MY MECHANIC LOOKED AT IT BUT IT WORKED FINE FOR HIM. LAST WEEK, IT SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING AND MADE A GRINDING NOISE, CAUSING DIFFICULTY IN EVERY DAY USAGE, SUCH AS PULLING UP TO MAILBOX TO GET MAIL. MY MECHANIC STATED THE PART ALONE WILL COST OVER $300 DOLLARS. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THIS IS A ROUTINE PROBLEM IN BUICKS DUE TO POOR DESIGN - A PLASTIC PIECE (INVOLVING REGULATOR?) THAT FAILS TOO EASILY. PLEASE ASK BUICK / GM TO ISSUE A RECALL DUE TO THE ENORMOUS FREQUENCY OF THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU. *JB

UPON EXAMINATION I FOUND THAT THE STEEL CABLES THAT HOLD THE ELECTRIC WINDOWS IN MY 2000 BUICK REGAL ARE UNDER GREAT TENSION AND THEY SELF DESTRUCT DUE TO THE PLASTIC GUIDES FALLING APART. IF THE CABLE IS NOT IN TENSION THE MOTOR WILL NOT WORK AND THE WINDOW FALLS OPEN INTO THE CAR DOOR. NEW MOTOR REGULATOR ASSEMBLY COSTS $400 FOR EACH WINDOW AND THE DEALERS WANT $400 LABOR TO REPLACE EACH WINDOW. I TIED THE CABLES WITH ROPE TO GET THE WINDOWS TO SHUT WITH THE MOTOR AND THEN FORCED THE WINDOW TO STAY SHUT WITH A WOOD BRACE IN THE DOOR. AFTER PAYING FOR A NEW VEHICLE AND A VEHICLE EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM GM I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO KEEP PAYING $800 PER ELECTRIC WINDOW FOR THE REST OF MY VEHICLES LIFE. THE...

MY COMPLAINT IS MY WINDOWS. MY CAR WILL BE PAID OFF THIS NOV. AND I SHOULD HAVE ALREADY FILED THIS COMPLAINT. THE FIRST OF THIS YEAR MY RIGHT BACK WINDOW GOT STUCK IN THE DOWNWARD POSITION. I CALLED SUPERIOR CHEV TO GET A QUOTE, IT WAS 249.00 JUST FOR THE WINDOW REGULATOR OVER 600.00 PARTS AND LABOR. I HAD TO HAVE THE PART SO I BOUGHT IT AND CAME IN CONTACT WITH SOMEONE THAT COULD PUT IT ON FOR ME FOR ABOUT 90% LESS THAN SUPERIOR CHEV IN DEKALB COUNTY GEORGIA. I ALWAYS HAD TROUBLE WITH THE REAR LEFT WINDOW. I HAVE MY GRANDDAUGHTER CAR SEAT ON THAT SIDE. WHEN I WOULD PICK UP MY SON FROM SCHOOL WE COULD NOT ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT COME DOWN. THEN I HAD THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOWN AND IT GOT STUCK IN THE DOWNWARD POSITION. I HAD TO TAKE...
