Cheaper lighter materials that don't last as long. Dealer charges 100 per hour, plus 30-35% markup on the parts.....
Good luck with the local news.....i'm sure they have better things to do....

Seems I follow the window regulator problems in my pick of cars. I have a 2000 Lincoln LS, which, per the forums I belong to, has window regulator problem very similar to this. So far, I have had one break in my LS - which my after-market extended warranty covered, to the tune of $238.55. Many instances of this were reported in LLSOC - it is a common occurrance.

Now, I also have a 2003 Jag S-Type and it seems to be a regulator problem here too. Thanks, Ford, for making the Mickey-Mouse regulators which break often. I believe there is a new regulator which is now available, though, which is less likely to break. Be sure if you have them replaced, that they put in the NEW style regulator. The new ones have replaced plastic parts with metal ones, I think.

That's the price we pay for quality.. lol....i suppose they (engineers) figured with luxury auto's, you will never roll down your window....that's why you never have a problem with the A/c system..... lol

so even though the actual motor works fine you STILL have to replace the whole thing?

You can get repair kits for around $10 on eBay. They come with replacement cables, plastic clips and pulleys. The motor and metal frame is re-used. Not easy to fit but huge savings compared to replacement at a dealer.
