Three of the power window regulators have failed on my 2000 Buick Lesabre limited. The windows may all of a sudden just drop down and the electric motor will not close them although you can hear the motors running. I've read this is an extremely common problem and a equipment defect on Buick cars with power windows which has not been corrected. I have replaced one window regulator and the others I have just blocked the windows closed. This could be a very dangerous situation if one of the windows was to suddenly just drop down while drive in a heavy rain or over bad weather which could cause a distraction and accident.

I have a 2000 Buick Lesabre with 71,000 miles. The drivers side rear window was partially down and I attempted to roll it up when a loud pop sounded from the door and the window started to slowly creep further open. The plastic tab that holds the cable in place broke. The GM dealer wanted over $400 for the regulator, minus installation. I found a replacement for $125 and installed it myself. After looking at the regulator, I know the other three window regulators will also break. It is time for GM to admit they have a problem and fix these defective window regulators.
