2 Power Window problem

Failure Date: 09/10/2005

My 1996 Honda Civic hx has driver side window failure where the window falls off the track and will not go up or down. Also, the window molding around the driver's window buckles and causes the window to fall off the track. Have had it repaired several times and still has the exact same problem recurring. Have read many other complaints as to this same problem, and am wondering why there hasn't been some sort of recall.
