In 2.5 years, I have put in 5 window regulators using original Dodge parts in my 2003 Dodge Durango. A 6th one broke 10/13/09. This part is defective in that it breaks irregardless of usage, today a rear window broke which has maybe been used a dozen times since I purchased the vehicle. The driver's window was replaced three times within 60 days, because the brand new parts broke. Dodge is well aware of this issue, because of the constant back order within their parts department and frequent consumer complaints well documented on the internet. Their paraphrased response to my complaint was too bad it's out of warranty.

Both front electric windows in our 2003 Dodge Durango stopped working. As soon as I paid to have one window replaced; the other window failed. The passenger front window came down as I was driving over a bridge in a rainstorm. The rain pelted my children who were riding in their carseats in the next row of seats. As soon as I got off the bridge, I turned onto an exit and waited out the rain at a gas station. I still have not replaced the window. I have it braced up with a rubber screw driver; at least it is up now.

On 4/2/07, I had the driver side window regulator replaced. It broke while driving down the road, not in use at the time. On 4/28/07 it was replaced again. On 7/7/07 it was replaced again. On 7/23/07 it was replaced again. On 8/20/07 it broke again. This is an oem part, not an after market. I've spoken with several mechanics who said this is definitely a Dodge issue. What do I do?
