I have replaced 2 regulators in the last 9 months ( 5/18/06 & 12/18/06). While driving there was a very loud noise and the window dropped into the door panel. I had the regulators replaced at a cost of $350 each.

I have had to replace 2 of my window regulators in the past month. Now that the regulator and motor are one part, this is a fairly pricey repair. The noise is very scary when the regulator goes and can definitely cause an accident.

I have replaced all 4 window regulators on the car. They fail and the window falls down! when this happens it is very loud and distracting. In a driving rain it almost led to an accident! the car has 56,000 mile on it.

I don't suspect that this defect is safety-related so much as just a defect, but the window regulators have broken on 3 of the windows in my Cadillac in the last 5 months, causing all 3 windows to be stuck in the down position. The repair guy says he is repairing a lot of regulators in a lot of different cars because they are cheaply designed.

Consumers wife entered the vehicle. The seats, mirror and steering are supposed to respond to her key fab as programmed, but it did not. Trying to attempt it manually did not work either. The vehicle was taken to the service dept. Who found a module under the drivers seat had shorted out and blew a fuse.
