SUBJECT: WINDOW GOES OFF TRACK & MALFUNCTION EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH & REGULATOR. FOR ABOUT A YEAR OR SO I'VE RECURRING PROBLEMS WITH THE WINDOW MASTER POWER SWITCH & REGULATOR. THEN, I THOUGHT IT IS CAUSED BY WEAR & TEAR. THEREFORE, I REPLACED THE FOLLOWING PARTS THINKING THE PROBLEM WOULD BE SOLVED: ON JANUARY 28, 2011, THE REGULATOR FOR DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WAS REPLACED BY BRAND NEW PART. ON APRIL 16,11 BOUGHT BRAND NEW WINDOW MASTER POWER SWITCH & REPLACED THE OLD ONE A WEEK LATER. UP UNTIL YESTERDAY (09/30/11), THE DRIVER'S SIDE & THE TWO BACK WINDOWS WERE WORKING PROPERLY. BUT, THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW IS STILL NOT WORKING. YESTERDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2011, AROUND 3.00 P. M., I PRESSED THE POWER SWITCH TO OPEN THE THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW, THEN I HEARD UNUSUAL SOUND AND NOTICED THAT THE WINDOW WENT OFF TRACK. SINCE THEN EVERY THE WINDOW IS OFF TRACK.. THEN, I BEGAN TO RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND OUT THE ISSUE HAS BEEN DISCUSSED BY MANY PEOPLE. RIGHT NOW, TWO HONDA DEALERSHIPS TOLD ME I'VE TO PAY FOR FIXING THE PROBLEM. BUT, I DISAGREE & I FEEL YOUR OFFICE SHOULD IMPOSE FOR RECALL & HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR TAKING CARE OF THIS PROBLEM FOR ME. BELOW ARE SOME WEBSITES THAT I FOUND ABOUT THE SUBJECT MATTER: (1). KOLOTV.COM HONDA RECALLING CARS OVER WINDOW PROBLEM HONDA IS RECALLING NEARLY 650,000 CARS AROUND THE WORLD, BECAUSE OF A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD IN A POWER WINDOW SWITCH.

VISIBILITY:SUN ROOF ASSEMBLY
WHILE GOING NORTH ON I-35, 2 MILES SOUTH OF AUSTIN, TEXAS A VERY LOUD NOISE WAS FELT AND HEARD. THE SUNROOF HAD CRACKED INTO THOUSANDS OF SMALL PIECES AND A LARGE HOLE FORMED AS I DROVE WITH GLASS FLYING BEHIND ME. THE HOLE IN THE CENTER OF THE SUNROOF HAD EDGES SLOPING UPWARDS INDICATING THE FORCE WENT OUT OF THE CAR BENDING THE GLASS OUTWARDS. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE ANY OBJECT HIT THE SUNROOF FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS 64F DEGREES. I BELIEVE THE FACTORY INSTALLED SUNROOF GLASS IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE SUNROOF. *TR
