 Window falls into the door without input from driver or passenger. this is a very common problem with buick lesabre cars and should be covered by gm as a design defect.

 Second time a power window has dropped within 4 months. first was the passenger rear in january 2010, second was front passenger window may 2010. seems the power window regulators are running a metal cable over a plastic pulley wheel and using a plastic spool on the motor. when the plastic pulley wheel breaks the cable misalignes on the spool and the window drops and is inoperable. costs of repairs is over $460.00 usd.

 I found out that this gas line leakage issue exist in everyone that i know with this model vehical. there is a fuel line clip that can be replaced. the clip is inserted at the end of the fuel line that connects to the engine but this clip dosen't last very long once replaced. eventually the clip won't work anymore as if it is the fuel line itself that is bad. this issues seem's to be a defect in this model buick and is dangerous. i'm just wondering how can such an issue never been on the buick recall list for this model car. most people that have this car say that they have smelled the gas fumes and didn't know what it was. the gas actually leaks/ drip from the fuel line's clip onto the hot engine. ( can you say very dangerous) this is a lawsuit waiting to happen!
