Power Window problems of the 2001 Buick Regal

The contact owns a 2001 Buick Regal. In August of 2007, within a span of three weeks, three of the vehicle's windows collapsed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for a diagnosis and they stated that the assembly failed. The windows were repaired at the cost of $750 each. The manufacturer stated that there were no recalls for the failure, but they were aware of the complaints. The failure mileage was 95,000. Updated 05/19/08.

The electric window mechanism on both rear windows were replaced under warranty. Now the left rear window has failed again and also the front passenger window has failed. When I called the local dealer, they had no explanation on why the rear window failed again (especially when I don't carry rear passengers and the window is seldom used) and was quoted $530. 00 for repair. It was after that the front window then failed. It seems to me there must be some kind of problem or defect with the mechanism since 4 windows have failed since buying the car.

The regulator and motor malfunction in my 2001 Buick Regal. All 4 windows have had problems with this off and on since I purchased the car in December 2001. They stop working for a month or so, then start working again. One quit working completely, so I took it to the Buick dealer in fort walton beach, FL. They wanted several hundred dollars to fix it. I could not afford this, so they said for less they could bolt it in the up position. They said that was better than it being stuck down. So I told them to do that for now. Now the front passenger is broken in the halfway down position. The other windows work for a while then quit working.

2001 Regal power windows failed. The consumer stated the window would suddenly go down and would not come back up when the button was pressed.
