Bought a new window track online for 20 bucks.It came with the motor, but it was horrible. So I took the plastic white clips off the new and popped them on the old window bracket. Never had to remove anything from the car. Patience Patience Patience

I have 3 of 4 windows taped up presently because they are off the mounting system. It started with rear driver's side door, which I caught before it fell all the way in. I reacted quickly to the rear passenger side window starting to slip. I had to take the interior door panel off to rescue the driver's window.

drivers door window track breaks. I've had it repaired before and it just happened again. mechanic said that I will always have the problem because the replacement parts are just the same, no improvements, parts are still extremely poor made-JUNK.

My mounting tabs on my driver window broke in half! Both of them. Its not expensive to fix if you can do it yourself but it's difficult reaching the front tab.

About 3 years ago this happened to the passenger side window. THen last year the same thing happened to the driver's side window but the window was damaged and also had to be replaced. That same week the passenger side window (which had already been repaired once) also broke.

plastic bracket holding front of driver's side (manual) window broke. Interestingly, while it was being worked on at a Merchant's Tire shop. waiting to see if they can find and replace just the clip or the whole window.
