1999 Buick Century

INTERIOR REAR-VIEW MIRROR HAS DEVELOPED SOME KIND OF DARK BROWN OIL LEAK INSIDE THE (AUTO-DIMMING) MIRROR. IT HAS DECREASED VISIBILITY IN THE MIRROR TO NEARLY ZERO. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH THIS MIRROR SINCE IT IS ESSENTIALLY LIKE HAVING NO REAR-VIEW MIRROR. JUST TODAY I HAD TWO OR THREE NEAR-INCIDENTS ON ROADS I NEVER HAD A PROBLEMS WHILE DRIVING OTHER CARS WHICH HAVE FUNCTIONING REAR-VIEW MIRRORS. *TR

ALL THE POWER WINDOWS WILL NOT WORK. I HAD THE DRIVER'S WINDOW REPAIRED AT A COST OF $325.00. IT WORKED FOR ABOUT ONE YEAR, AND NOW SOMETIMES IT WILL ROLL DOWN. MOST CERTAINLY THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THESE WINDOWS. THE OTHER WINDOWS WERE OCCASIONALLY USED, SO I KNOW THAT THEY WERE NOT WORN OUT. I AM NOT GOING TO PAY TO GET THEM FIXED BECAUSE I DON'T USE THEM. WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECALLED? *AK

WINDOW REGULATOR FAILURE. THIS IS MY SECOND COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THE LAST OF FOUR WINDOWS REGULATORS HAS FAILED IN A YEAR''S TIME. A PLASTIC OR NYLON CLIP THAT HOLDS THE TWO CABLE ENDS BECOMES BRITTLE AND GIVES WAY. THE WINDOW THEN IS UNSUPPORTED AND FALLS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE TRACK. FIRST THE DRIVE WINDOW FAILED. THIS IN MY OPINION IS A SAFETY AND SECURITY HAZARD AND THE DRIVER IS THEN EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS, COLD, RAIN, ETC. THE SAME GOES FOR PASSENGERS. THE PASSENGER WINDOW FAILED WITHIN MONTHS AFTER, FOLLOWED BY THE REAR LEFT WINDOW AND NOW THE REAR RIGHT WINDOW. THIS WINDOW REGULATOR IS COMMON ACROSS ALL GM MODELS IN THIS CHASSIS TYPE. *JB

REAR POWER WINDOW FAILED WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. WINDOW CONTROL WAS PUSHED BY ACCIDENT AND WHEN PUSHED AGAIN TO BRING WINDOW BACK UP, A LOUD "POPPING" NOISE WAS HEARD AND WINDOW REFUSED TO STAY UP. SERVICE DEPT. AT DEALER DETERMINED A NEW REGULATOR WAS NEEDED. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME POWER WINDOWS HAVE BEEN REPLACED ON THIS VEHICLE, AS BOTH REAR WINDOWS FAILED WHILE CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. VEHICLE VERY RARELY HAS ANY BACKSEAT PASSENGERS, SO THESE WINDOWS GET VERY LITTLE TO NO ROUTINE USE. *NM

WINDOW REGULATORS, IN THIS LAST TWELVE MONTHS, THE DRIVER, PASSENGER AND TODAY REAR PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATORS HAVE FAILED. A NYLON CLIP HOLDS THE TWO ENDS OF THE CABLING. THE PART BREAKS, THEN WINDOW DROP TO THE DOWN POSITION. THE ENTIRE WINDOW REGULATOR ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED. IN MY OPINION, THIS IS A SAFETY & SECURITY RELATED ISSUES AS THE DRIVER IS THEN EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS OR DISTRACTED BY THE PASSENGERS WHO ARE EXPOSED. THE ELEMENTS BEING COLD, RAINS, SLEET, WIND, ETC. THE VEHICLE CAN NOT BE SECURED WITH THE WINDOW DOWN. THE PART THAT FAILS NEEDS TO BE STRENGTHENED AND OF MADE OF METAL. *JB

1999 BUICK CENTURY. HAVE HAD TO REPLACE POWER WINDOWS 6 DIFFERENT TIMES ON 2 WINDOWS. LEFT FRONT POWER WINDOW MOTOR TWICE. HAVE HAD TO REPLACE RIGHT REAR POWER WINDOW MOTOR TWICE PLUS THE REGULATOR. THE RIGHT REAR POWER WINDOW HAS GONE AGAIN AND THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME. I HAVE TIRE PLUS DO THE LEFT FRONT WINDOW AND THE DEALER WORKING ON THE RIGHT REAR. THE DEALER STATES THERE IS ONLY A 12,000 OR ONE YEAR WARRANTY SO I HAVE TO KEEP PAYING FOR THESE REPAIRS EVERY ONE TO TWO YEARS. ONE MECHANIC SAID THE PART WAS RUSTING. THAT INDICATES WATER BUT WHY CAN'T THEY FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE WATER CAUSING THEM TO RUST RATHER THAN ME PAYING $300 EACH TIME WHEN THE MOTOR FINALLY RUSTS OUT?
