Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 1) events leading up to failure: i pushed a button to roll up the window. 2) failure: the window 'popped' then fell into the door. 3) what was done to correct the failure: i went to a 5-star certified jeep dealer and was quoted $300 for repairs both times. this has happened on two occasions; once sept. 2006 (driver door) and the other just two days ago - aug. 2007 (passenger front right door). after thorough research on the internet and discussion with the dealer, this is a "common problem with that vehicle." yet the dealer doesn't even keep the part in stock so shipping fees are incorporated. having a window which will not roll up not only puts personal property at risk of theft, but also damage due to rain, wind, snow etc. the most recent occurrence happened during a rainstorm on the interstate. this needs to be addressed. *jb
