Abs: at first, the light was on all the time. A diagnostic test was run, and a sensor was replaced (all that was over $400). Now the light comes on (and stays on) at 49 MPH. Another diagnostic test will have to be performed by the dealer to find out what's wrong. As for the window: one day I was driving with the window halfway down. When I tried to roll it back up, it wouldn't go. It just stayed there, then started sliding down. A repair shop fixed it.

In august,1998 the front passenger side window mechanism failed and had to be replaced and in november the driver side front window failed the same way. Also the back left window won't go down all the way and is probably ready to go too. The parts for each replacement are over $300.00. It seems faulty to me since the car is always parked in the garage when not in use and has very low mileage.
