2000 Buick LeSabre LIMITED review from North America

Left rear passenger power window quit working. You could hear the motor running, but the window did not move. After reading previous complaints about the same problem, I want to add an extra twist. For the first 68,000 of its life, it was garaged most days during the hottest part of the day. I gave the car to my Daughter after buying a new Lucerne, and she parked it on the street with the driver's side facing the 100 degree sun. Five months later the left rear window broke. I suspect the heat on the plastic parts was a contributing factor. Most other complaints were at the 50,000 range and I wonder if they were sitting out in the hot sun all day. I had an extended warranty and it had gone out the week before this happened. I went in to the dealer and asked what they would charge to repair, and they were just working on one that day and the immediate answer was $526.

This has been a wonderful nice driving car and my only complaint is the window regulator. From what I have read, GM should foot the cost of repair of a known defect.
