THREE OF THE FOUR WINDOW REGULATORS HAVE BROKEN AND AFTER REPAIRING, WITHIN A YEAR TWO OF THE WINDOWS REGULATORS HAVE BROKEN AGAIN. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURE DEFECT THAT CAN CAUSE A SUDDEN DISTRACTION TO THE DRIVER. IN ONE SITUATION, THE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR WHILE IN A RAIN STORM. THIS CAUSED A SUDDEN DISTRACTION TO THE ROAD. I STRAYED OUT OF MY LANE BECAUSE OF THE SUDDEN BREAKING OF THE REGULATOR. SECOND TIME OCCURRED WHEN I WAS AT A GROCERY STORE. I CAME OUT TO FIND THE REAR WINDOW DOWN WHICH COULD HAVE ALLOWED SOMEONE INTO THE CAR AND ROB OR EVEN WORSE. I HAVE NOT SEEN THIS PROBLEM IN ANY OTHER CAR BUT THE CADILLAC DEVILLE'S. IN SPEAKING WITH OTHER CADILLAC OWNER'S JUST ABOUT EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM REPORTED THE SAME ISSUE. I THINK THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE LOOKING INTO THE ISSUE. *TR
