What owners wrote

Power window regulator failure. Window will not go up or down. Have seen many, many complaints of the exact same problem. Makes driving in rain impossible, and caused an accident when the window would not go up on the interstate.

I have reviewed that there are have been multiple complaints regarding faulty window regulators on these particular chrysler vehicles. These plates in the window regulators give out causing the auto glass to slide down inside the door. I have had to have both rear regulators replaced twice and recently my front passenger regulator gave out. I have had 3 regulators replaced prior to my vehicle reaching 30,000 miles.
