Radio/tape Cd Player problems of the 2006 Honda Pilot

While driving my 2006 Honda Pilot I heard a loud thud in the back seat area of my vehicle. When I looked back I noticed that my left rear window was missing. It appears the window regulator snapped allowing the glass to fall inside the door area. I was on the way to pickup my 2. 5 year old son and had to pull over and purchase plastic and tape to make repairs in order to get vehicle home. I cannot drive the vehicle and park it as a criminal can now easily access my vehicle by simply reaching inside. Thankfully, this did not occur while I was inside a store or other urban area or my car would have been easily accessible to anyone who may have wanted to steal items from inside my vehicle. It appears this is a known issue with Honda Pilots and other Honda vehicles from the late 1990's to late 2000's. I contacted Honda to report the issue but was offered no immediate relief as there is no recall on these defective window regulators despite the widespread issues. This vehicle was purchased brand new by me in 2006 and this is the rear left window which has probably been rolled down less than 30 times in the past 8 years.

This problem presented itself shortly after purchasing the vehicle and has been an intermittent annoyance since then. Sometimes after starting the vehicle and turning the radio on there will be no sound from the speakers. Sometimes after driving a while, perhaps 20 minutes or so, the radio will emit a loud electrical popping noise and sound will come from the speakers again. Also if the vehicle is shut off let sit and then turned back on the radio will start working again.

The radio is constantly losing reception when vehicle hits a bump. Sometime it will reconnect when another bump or hole is hit. The radio was replaced, but there seems to be something in the antenna that is defective.
