I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY FIXED THE WINDOW, BUT I HAD TO PAY FOR IT. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT 2 WINDOWS QUIT WORKING WITHIN ONE MONTH OF EACH OTHER. THE MOTOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WENT OUT. THE MOTOR FOR THE SUNROOF STILL WORKS, BUT THE CABLES BROKE AND NOW THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME CLOSE TO $600.00 TO FIX IT! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE CABLES WOULD COME APART LIKE THAT, I FEE THAT IT IS A DEFECTIVE PART, BUT NO ONE WANTS TO HELP ME WITH THIS! AS THEY ARE SAYING IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, BUT MY POINT IS THAT I DON'T USE THE SUNROOF ENOUGH FOR THIS TO HAPPEN! *AK
