Century 6-cyl

  • 121,000 miles
2005 Buick Century custom. Purchased used in excellent condition from Ford dealership in 2011. Electric windows worked fine, then in 2012, 1 of the windows just fell down the track. A cpl months later another did the same thing and then a cpl more months a third one fell. I removed the door panels as these incidents happened and could feel a cable laying loose down in the bottom of the doorwell. I'm not sure if a "possible pulley" or the cables theirselves broke, but this is an obvious issue with this make, model & year from what I read on carparts.com. I now have pieces of 1"X2"'s wedged in to hold them up because of lack of funds. If this is actually a common issue, as I read, then this should be considered to make it as a recall. Thank you **note - I only drive this car between 50-65 mi. A week on paved roads and no rough driving and the car has never been in any accidents ever. A very well taken care of vehicle.
