Left rear window fell with a loud bang. Car has never been off road and garaged. Mileage around 30,000. Dealer fixed it for a charge of $550.00. I have been on line and find that this is a continuing problem because of defect in the window controller. This is a defect and it is wrong for customers to be saddled financially with this issue.
