Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 2000 pontiac grand am se1 sedan ... power window regulators failed because of substandard plastic bracket that breaks and causes the motor to seize. because of this failure, i cannot roll down any of my windows. i live in the middle of the desert and like to have my windows down. the dealership quoted me $250.00 for each window plus the cost of labor and was told that it would take 2 weeks for the parts and then they would have my car for approx 3 days. i asked about a rental and they said that i would have to pay out of pocket for it if i wanted one. i have researched this and found upwards of 40 some odd complaints on different web sites pertaining to 1998-2004 models with this same issue. i have found after market parts to repair them myself and it will still cost me $400.00 because i have to replace the entire power window regulator and motor for each door. my brother has a 2001 model with the same problem. *jb |
