The bolts attaching the front door window glass to the window regulator may come loose. This can cause the window regulator to become damaged and possibly causing the window glass to break. Some 2003 & 2004 models have been recalled for the issue.

    My rear driver's side window will not roll. neither the switch on the driver's door nor the one on the rear driver's side door will work to roll the window. I cannot even hear the motor try to make an effort.

    Driver side window slipped down and the regulator had to be replaces at cost of $200 last year.

    Then this week the passenger window completely fell into the door! I plan to go to a dealer and request a free repair.

    Driver's window started making clunk part way up when closing. Then window almost came out
    of track with top rear corner lifting out of frame. Was able to guide window back and have not used since.

    Now, my girlfriend's 2003 made a loud clunk on closing. Suspect the same problem.
    Will be opening door panel to check mine.
