Several window motors on my 2001 jeep have broke in the past two years. When this happens, the window falls down by itself and will not go back up without getting out of the car to manually push it back up. I had to pull over on the side of the highway to push my window back up for fear of it going all the way down and not being able to get it back up in the freezing cold weather. I am also concerned about the…

My 2001 jeep grand cherokee has now had all four window regulators fail with no apparent reason with an accumulated repair cost topping $1300. Most recently, the regulator on the window next to my infant son failed while traveling on the interstate during an intense thunderstorm, causing the window to fall into the door and soaking my child-quite a distraction at 70mph. *tr

The first incident occurred while driving, i noticed that the front passenger window began to lower itself without me activating the switch. I attempted to push the switch to make it go up which didn't work. The window then proceeded to lower itself into the door and would not return to the up position. I took the car to my mechanic who informed me that the window regulator had failed and that this is a common…

Rear driver side window regulator assembly broke in 06, front driver window regulator assembly broke in 07 and now front passenger window regulator assembly broke in 08. I had to replace the window regulator assembly, found that plastic block that holds the cables to the slide track broke. This seems to be a major design flaw on the assemblies, the plastic block gets old, worn and just cracks or breaks without…

The driver side window went down by itself, and will not go back up. It sounds like the window motor broke. After research on the internet (type in 2001 jeep grand cherokee power window defect), i found many others that shared similar defects in their power windows. *tr

Electric windows keep breaking- 4 times now in same vehicle- one window mechanism has been replaced twice now. First time it malfunctioned, the window automatically rolled all the way up, then made loud clunk sound and window dropped down into the door. This is a safety issue as someone's arm could get stuck with the window rolling up on its own as well as having back windows fall all the way down when my young…

The regulator on the drivers side window failed and the window dropped. It would not stay up on it's own. I took it to my mechanic (not a chrysler dealer). Who discovered it was the regulator and replaced it for $275. Less than a week later on sat. 9/15/07. The same exact thing happened to the passenger window. I contacted chrysler feeling there must be a defect for both to go within a week of each other. I was told…

1) events leading up to failure: i pushed a button to roll up the window. 2) failure: the window 'popped' then fell into the door. 3) what was done to correct the failure: i went to a 5-star certified jeep dealer and was quoted $300 for repairs both times. This has happened on two occasions; once sept. 2006 (driver door) and the other just two days ago - aug. 2007 (passenger front right door). After thorough…

The window regulator broke on the driver's side. The part that broke was on the regulator and a cable connects to it. The part was made from plastic and was not strong enough to handle the weight of the window and it broke. I am the original owner and always took great care of my jeep. The dealer wants $270 for a new one (not including labor) and this is very disappointing as nothing out of the ordinary was done to…

2001 jeep grand cherokee laredo -- every window regulator has broken at least once. Driver side window regulator has been replaced twice. Windows fall down when regulator fails, which is potential broken glass hazard, according to the mechanic (which is why he refused to permanently wire the window up for me). I took off the back door panels and wired the windows up with steel wire myself to prevent them from…

After going through some online troubleshooting, i just confirmed that the blend door went bad. And yes it is not one first problem i had with my 2001 limited grand cherokee jeep. 8 months ago the drivers side window regulator broke (as in all jeeps), my four brake calipers went bad by just replacing the old pads, and now this. One day, the car just started to blow cold air. Before that, i could hear the noises…
