Both passenger and driver window regulators failed on my 2014 Fiat 500gq at 21250 miles within 1 week of each other. The first failure occurred on 06/14/2019. I replaced the regulator myself on 06/22/2019, but as I was backing out of my driveway I rolled up my driver side window and the exact same thing happened there as well! needless to say I was absolutely shocked. The failure was the same for both. When rolling up the window when the window reaches the top of the track and stops against the door frame the regulator motor continues to run forcing too much tension on the internal mechanism. In both instances the same type of failure occurred on my vehicle, this extra tension caused the cable to be pulled free from the top pulley of the regulator. A crunching/grinding noise is heard as the cabled is pulled through the internal structure of the door, followed by the weight of the window forcing the window to drop fully open. This could be very hazardous if it happened while driving during adverse weather conditions as the driver has no ability to raise the window. Both of these instances occured while the vehicle was running but stationary, the first while I was stopped at a red light on a city street, the second while in my driveway.

On 01/25/2016 was on I20 driving to work when I started to smell like something was burning then warning lights came on that the car needed to be turned off and that the transmission needed to be serviced, my car had to be towed to dealership. Also the windshield started to crack well for starters my car has been at the dealership since Jan. 25,2016 and here it is March 29th of 2016 and they barely called me that it is ready. Well since reading about powertrain recall and reading that my car has had that repaired once already and now repaired for the 2nd time I fear that this is going to be a on going problem and now I fear for my safety. When I spoke with dealership on 03/25/16 I made shop tech aware that the loaner I was using needed a new registration tag and now today my car is ready well that scares me. When I first spokwe with dealership service department it took them almost 4 days to let me know their findings and the way it was explained to me was people just don't know how to drive the 6 cylinder transmission making me feel like it was my fault when this whole time it has been a issue with this model.
