Buick Complaint - Window problems - windows

windows - Complaint
Review by Piedmont on 2009-06-18
I would join in a class action. I have a 2001 Lasabre and have replaced both windows on the passenger side at a cost of $300.00 each. Definitely a manufacturing defect/

... Why would you sue? People like you are the ones that make this country the way it is today. The car was old, and broke, it happens.

A lawyer would likely laugh at you harder than the people here will. Ridiculous.

your car insurance doesn't cover your windows?

Dude switch to State Farm. My windows are 100% covered.
(yeah that means if they break, i pay nothing to get them fixed)

Pepper, if you check I think you will find the 100% window replacement only applies to the windshield.

I don't think the OP is referring to broken glass. It is most likely power window operator failure. Consider the car is 8 years old. No real complaint here.

Ah. and no, it applied to the passenger windows too.

I left work one morning (I had duty the day before) came to the car and saw the right backdoor window was smashed. Some jerk had thrown a rock into the window.

It was Sunday morning, but I called State Farm. My agent was in a different state but they looked around until they found a glass company that was open to take my order.

The window was fixed at my apartment on Thursday. And the bill came to $0.



as for the power-window parts breaking. eh dunno what to say. could be that model wasn't slated to be long lasting.

to me 2001 isn't too old cos that's what i'm driving now, but it's a car with a long lifespan, so i'm expecting it to live at least 5-10 years more.
