I own a 2000 Buick Lesabre and within the past year and a half I've had to replace 3 window regulators and 1 window motor. Buick did pay for one regulator part (I paid for the labor) and is offering me $300 towards the others. I have spent out of my own pocket $1,186.24 to have the windows repaired. I'm finding out this is a common problem in Buick Lesabre.

The contact owns a 2000 Buick Lesabre. Over the past year, all four vehicle windows would not roll back up because the mechanisms failed. The windows failed in the following order: Rear driver side, rear passenger side, front passenger side, and most recently, the front driver side. The contact took the first window to the dealer to be repaired at her expense. She believed the regulators in the windows were causing the failures. The purchase date was unknown.

Power window regulators failed in both rear windows within days of each other on a 2000 Buick Lesabre. In each instance the window glass dropped into the door and could not be raised. Very distracting to the driver when this happens unexpectedly. Apparently a very common problem with GM vehicles and very expensive to repair.

I bought a 200 Lesabre in November of 2004. I rarely use the windows - maybe a few times up and down a week. Doing the math, there have been a few hundred ups and downs for each window. During the last six months I have replaced all four window regulators/motors on this car. Internet sites has clearly shown that there is a defect with Buick's window regulators and they will not do anything about it. See groups.google.com/group/Buick-Lesabre-window-regulator/browse_frm/thread/2A1899cf89253771?hl=en#30bf330dab8abef9. I also purchased a 2002 Lesabre in September of '06. This morning the second window on that car went as well. This is utterly ridiculous and criminal. These window regulators must be recalled and replaced.

I drive a GM 2000 Buick lasabre and have had 3 out of the 4 electric windows go down and not go back up again. I have only been able to afford to get 1 fixed so far because it is the entire actuator and motor system that needs to be replaced and it costs $500 for each window. Please recall these windows and replace them with windows that work.

Window regulator on the rear driver window is broken. It keeps the window down. The regulators on the other windows are now starting to see a problem. The window not being able to be up or down causes major issues for driver safety during in inclement weather conditions.

During 2004-2005 three electric window regulators failed. This 2000 Buick le saber custom at that time had 38,000 to 45,000 miles ( currently 79,000). In may, 2007 the rear windshield fell apart. The dealers refused to offer any help so I paid approx 400 to 600 per incident for the regulators. There seems to be a distinct pattern with these units and I believe are defective when you look at the numbers here V, S. some other issues the mfg covers.
