Town & Country

The flimsy plastic clips that hold the windows to the track of the power door windows are a hazard. They brake extremely easy and could leave a person trapped inside the car in a event of not being able to open the door. Our van is currently disabled to the plastic retainer clip braking. As an engineer myself I am appalled at the poor design. I'm sure the design was cheap to manufacture, but its totally incapable of surviving any stress. ****dimsii IVOQ entry posted after 12/12/02 cut over to artemis***761559
