My drivers side window recently started failing and I wondered if anyone had a similar experience and any idea of how to fix it. What happened was that the drivers side window (power) would go down fine, but give problems to go up. It may go up an inch or so then stop. When this problem started, I could just wait, up an inch, wait, up another inch (and pray for dry weather) till it eventually ended up all the way. Now it basically refuses to go up.
The dealer told me that the window regulator needs replacing, and the parts and labour would come to about $300.00. I can actually think of better ways to spend $300.00 and I would actually like the challenge of fixing it.
Anyone ever had to deal with this? If so, what is the solution? They told me that it's a very common problem.
