While car was still under warranty, drivers front and passengers back electric windows failed and were replaced. Car is owned by single adult, no children, windows are not abused....within past 6 months drivers front, drivers back, and passengers front electric windows have all failed. Plastic clip that holds the cable has broken on all three windows...cable winds inside of motor making it necessary to replace regulator and motor.

Within 30 days, three of the four power windows have failed. Estimates on each window is between $370.00 and $400.00 dollars. I can see one window failing, but three within 30 days is a statistical impossibility. Am awaiting word from gm, oldsmobile and the district service manager to see what, if anything, they are going to do.

Within 32 days, three of the four power windows have failed. Car has 92400 miles on it. Olds cannot replace just the broken cable, but must install new motor assembly. Estimated cost of repair $1300.00 plus tax. Olds customer assistance only offered 10% off bill, or $1000.00 off new vehicle. Never heard of three windows going out in one months time, but am used to gm turning its back on customers.
