CarComplaints.com Notes: The last model year of the 6th generation Civic (1996-2000) and, subsequently, the last model year before the popular car was overrun with transmission problems.
I had just came back from salt lake and I pull into a parking lot and I try to put my window up and I realize that it is off the track and its like 12 at night nothing is open and now its Sunday and I have no idea what to do i cant just leave it like this it wont go down i pushed the window up so its gonna be safe but i just cant put the window down would this even be covered by insurance?
This is the 4th time that this has happened. When you roll the windows all the way down they will not roll back up, windows come off the tracks. You will have to take the car to an auto body shop to have this fixed. The solution is to have the windows put back on the track then you will only be able to roll the windows down half way after this happens. The body shop tells me that the track is too flimsy. It cost $40-60 dollars to have this fixed.

alright my Honda civic has alot of miles.... anyway it was a hot day and it was cloudy and it was supposed to rain
so the window was down and there was drizzles so i started putting up the windows (now this was 7 months after it was purchased) '
Anyway i tried to put it up(with the auto. button auto windows) and it wouldn't go up I hit rain pouring rain
thunder lightning etc.
of course i freaked out
i was soaked i pulled over and had to pull it up with my hand
with no help it seriously took bout 20min.
and the inside was soaked and so was I
i drove in wet
when i got to town
i went to my dealer
and they supposedly fixed it well it was fine
until probably 2 weeks it wouldn't go up
but i was in the garage and it was a sunny day thanx goodness
and i bought it back and they fixed it
well it was fine till bout 2 years latter it completely stuck
the motor ended up burning up
they fixed it replaced everything
and 2 weeks later it has been going slow and when it is wet outside it will get stuck
then bout 1 year all of the windows got stuck
and now I can only roll it half way down
it sucks
i have bout 98000 miles and hope to run it another year
and then i am going to purchase a Honda CRV
i like the civic but the windows never go up i have talked to people who have/had one and they had th4e same prob
i love the car
but it is a pain in the ass
soooo if yah wanna buy one go ahead, but keep it in mind
thanks
