CarComplaints.com Notes: The 1997 CL suffered from repeated failures of the driver side power window. Acura replaced the power window motor under their standard warranty and is some cases even offered warranty extensions, perhaps side-stepping a recall.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.

After parking my car I went into a store. When I returned my window was down 3/4 of the way and I know I didn't leave it down because it was pooring down rain outside. As it turns out my window would not go back up, I had to drive home with the window down, my seat got soaked with rain. As of now my window I found out that a clip in the window broke. I am very angry because my car is a 97 and I haven't even had it 2 years. I guess I have to get it fixed now but I have heard a lot of people complaining about Honda manufactured window problems. I guess I just wanted to tell someone my story.
I was driving a long last week in my 1997 Acura 2.2cl that I just purchased last August 2002, with only 27,000 miles on it now with 47,000 miles and I went to put down my driver side automatic window and the window just fell into the door. This should no way happen to a car that has only 47,000 miles on it. I took it to an autobody shop and they said I needed a new "runner" and new cables in the door. Approximately a 200-250$ job which I shouldn't be paying for when my car is at such young mileage. I could see if I had to replace a belt or something like that with the engine, no problem, but a window, no way!
Driver's side power window failed, causing window to slide into the door. Had repairs done at a local repair shop, but now the anti-theft indicator light in door does not work.
Regulator switch for the power windows in the doors of the vehicle have failed four times in the past four years. Dealership cannot determine a cause for the failure. Please provide any additional information / documentation.
