The driver side window will not roll down on the chevrolet lumina 4dr. I had the window fixed for about $400.00 and 90 days later the window did not roll down again, just after the warranty on the work was over.

Consumer complained about windshield wiper motor problem. While driving in rainstorm windshield wiper motor failed. Consumer had to wait until the rain stopped before getting help. This occurred on two occasions. A recall was issued. However, this vehicle was not included in the recall due to VIN.
When driving during a rain storm windshield wipers failed. Took vehicle to dealership, and mechanic stated windshield wiper motor malfunctioned, and needed to be repaired.
Windshield wipers failed to work, started again, failed to work, etc.... During a drive in the rain in the middle of heavy commuter traffic. Fortunately I was able to navigate across several lanes of traffic and pull over without an accident.
Consumer states engine looses power then engine dies, took to dealer and they rebuilt transmission, the passenger window will not roll up or down, water pump failed on july 24, flasher lever broke inside the steering column, brakes inoperative. Mr
If windshield wipers are to be used during the rain/snow, they would fail to come on. Would have to play around with switch before wipers work. This causes the driver to have poor visibility when driving. Its an intermittent problem, but becoming worse. Will be taking to dealer to check.
Consumer was driving at 15 MPH. When suddenly a loud explosive sound was heard, and it was the rear window shattering into many pieces over the back seat. Manufaturer has been contacted.
The door has been painted once by the dealer and already and it continues to peal again. Needs to be redone. Windshield wipers when turned on don't like to shut off, an intermittent problem.
