Front driver window stopped working. Has been replaced twice and a whopping $330.00 each time. Passenger window is now acting up. Will roll down but not up, and sometimes won't move at all. The second time the driver side window broke, a rock from a truck ahead flew into my window and hit the back seat. Inches from my eye. This vehicle has a horrible reputation of the windows motor/regulator units.

What owners say
In 2006 the drivers side window stopped working. Replaced the motor. November 2008 the passenger window stopped working. Will have to replace this motor as well.
My mechanic had to replace stabelizer bar bushings, stabelizer links, inner tie rods, 2 window motors 900.00
Passenger window will not work properly - sometimes goes down slowly and has to be pulled back up, sometimes won't go up at all. No parts available from manufacturer - back order of at least 2 weeks for a new window motor and relay, due to the high volume of failures!!!
The consumer stated, while driving, the driver was unable to turn left the steering wheel-which had locked up, almost causing an accident. Dealer contacted. Mr the consumer states that the steering pump was replaced by the dealer, but the problem is not solved. Still unable to turn left-not until the vehicle is warm. The consumer is dissatisfied with the vehicle and adds that the window motors were replaced(unsure if problem), the brakes done 3 times, along with numerous steering problems. Scc
