I received a new motor for driver's side window, but that seems to be causing me problems again.
1997 Honda Civic visibility complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 33 of 33, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Driver's sideand passenger's side windows were getting stuck down due to window regulator failure. Dealer has repaired both windows.
First the drivers side window would not roll up all the way and it seemed to off of it's track. The vehicle was not in an accident when this problem occured. I notified the dealership I bought it from and was charged almost three hundred dollars to get it fixed. Two months later the same thig happened to the passenger side door and I have had a car mechanic roll the window up for me but it is not fixed.I also know of another person who purchased a 1997 honda civic froma different dealership and his driver side window has done the same thing. I could not find a recall on this model for this problem.
Driver window keeps jumping off track.
Vehicle would not start in november of 2000. Dealership tested battery to see if this was cause. Mechanic replaced battery, and vehicle still would not start. Mechanics then replaced entire alternator, and this corrected defect. There was approximately 28,000 miles on alternator when this occurred. *ak run channel and regulator for the power window was replaced. Hood release snapped off when consumer pulled it. Consumer is requesting partial reimbursement for the repairment of the alternator.
Windows on both sides continue to get off track and will not go up or down.
Driver's side window kept jumping off the track intermittently. Vehicle been to dealer's shop on three occasions, and problem still reoccurring. Currently informed that track needed replacement due to wear. Please feel free to provide any further details on this matter.

Driver's side window failed, no description given by consumer.
Experiencing problem with rearview mirror; whenever mirror is adjusted from day to night and returned back to day, the whole mirror has to be readjusted. Dealer notified, and replaced mirror on two occasions, and problem still occurs. This can lead to a vehicle accident due to adjusting mirror. Asking the federal safety agency to look into this matter.
I had this problem fixed twice in two years..at my expence(over $500)
The window does not roll up or down and seems to be out of its track
Front end noisy and shakes while driving 65 MPH and up. Also,window fell out on driver's side, and door panel is falling off.
Windshield air leak is causing noise.
Rear view mirror swivels excessively when flipped to reduce headlight glare. Mirror needs to be readjusted while driving causing distraction. Dealer says it's normal, but I don't think so. This is a serious distraction while driving and causes a potenial hazard.
Poor visibility through the left rear view mirror.
Windshield design problem.
Design of the sideview mirrors cause visibility problems.
