Avenger SXT 2.6L V4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 56,000 miles

Driver side window made loud sound, then slowly went down, month later passenger front window did same thing. After boyfriend took door apart found out was caused by broken pulleys on the window regulators....I believe they were caused by TIPM problems....pressure being put on pulleys due to malfunctioning TIPM that was sending signal to windows....because its caused multiple other problems in my car as well. If you have this problem highly recommend getting your TIPM checked before it breaks other much more expensive parts in your car. TIPM should be recalled for these avengers! If you need one order a dorman one from autozone, its plug and play no programming required, then look up youtube video and read instructions that come w/it for install. Much cheaper than going to a mechanic and just about anyone could replace it...literally unplugging and replugging couple plugs.

This is primarily a commuter vehicle so no one was ever in the back seat... first time some one was they rolled the window down and it wouldn't go back up, we were on our way to a hockey game on a Saturday night. Couldn't leave the car in the parking lot with the windows down so had to miss the game (not cheap NHL tickets), drive home (100km away) with plastic window and then back to the dealership (70km) on the Monday (again missing work). Dealership put windows up and disconnected motors till parts were in, but the AGAIN had to take it back to the dealership (40km away from my work) drop it off and find carpool arrangements till it was fixed (2 days).
