Hello everyone,
About 3-4 months ago I had replaced the drivers window regulator in my sister's 99 Elantra (96k miles). Just last Friday the drivers rear window regulator broke and had to replace that. I've searched the newgroups and found other people having the same problems. Now I know these things don't last, but I seriously think that the parts need to be recalled and redesigned. My sister barely uses the windows so I can't blame it on over use. I have 2 95 Hondas with a lot more mileage on them and I do use the windows excessively and have never seen this problem. I'd like to know if others have the same issue on this generation Elantra. On top of all this, the wheel bearing is going which shouldn't happen at the mileage that is on the car (I'm hoping that this is covered under the power train warranty).
I'm going to be filing a complain with Hyundai to see if that will at least comp me back for the 2nd regulator but I'm not expecting much.
Thanks, Nick
