Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had 3 of the 4 regulator motors go out on my front driver's side, back drivers and passengers side. i have only had the front drivers side repaired as the dealer quoted me a price of $400 to fix each one. the front one broke while still under warranty, so that was fixed. each time this happened as the window was rolled down or up. there was a loud clunking noise and the window just fell down. this is especially annoying since i have 2 small kids and their windows won't stay up. there has got to be some sort of defect, since i've read a number of reports about this same thing, and since it's happened to 3 of my 4 windows. i have a feeling it's about to happen to the front passenger side too, as that window won't roll down. *jb
