2000 Honda Civic Wipers & Visibility Problems

DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW MAKES A TERRIBLE CRUNCHING NOISE WHEN GOING UP OR DOWN AND HAS PUT A HUGE SCRATCH ON THE WINDOW. DIX HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS CHECKED IT 3X, BUT CAN'T "RECREATE THE PROBLEM". *TR

AFTER AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR TO THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE POWER WINDOW (REPLACED BOTH CHANNEL/RUNNER AND REGULATOR/MOTOR), I NOW REALIZE THAT THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM WITH NEWER HONDAS. I HAVE CHECKED THE NHTSA WEBSITE AND HAVE LOCATED SEVERAL SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. IN ADDITION, I KNOW OF SEVERAL OTHER HONDA OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM AND WERE FORCED TO PAY FOR THE EXACT SAME REPAIRS. I THINK THAT HONDA SHOULD REDUCE THE COST OF THEIR PARTS FOR THIS REPAIR AND INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM WITH THEIR FRONT DRIVER-SIDE POWER WINDOWS.

DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW OF 2000 HONDA CIVIC VP WINDOWS REGULATOR BROKEN. WINDOW HAS BEEN VERY DIFFICULT TO WIND UP AND DOWN FOR 2 YEARS. WHILE SEARCHING FOR INFORMATION ON THIS I'VE DISCOVERED THAT IT HAS BEEN REPORTED BY SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE AND ALSO IT'S LISTED IN THE SERVICE BULLETINS. SINCE I'M NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, I FELT OBLIGATED TO AT LEAST LOG A COMPLAINT SO OTHERS MAY SEE THAT THERE'S AN ISSUE HERE.*AK
