Passenger side electric window ceased operation in the 'up' position. due to the vehicle design, the top of the window glass can now potentially contact the door frame when closing, presenting a breakage hazard. after several months, the window began to operate, then failed again several weeks later - currently inoperative. widespread evidence on the internet of similar problem with other vehicles of this type - mini cooper. *tr | |||

My 2004 mini cooper s has incurred two cracked windshields over the past two years, requiring the entire windshield to be replaced. each crack occurred while driving after a small pebble nicked the windshield. after driving for nearly twenty years i find this rate of occurrence to be unacceptable. although the angle of the windshield may be at a steeper grade than most vehicles, mini has failed to recognize solutions such as a stronger thicker windshield. a resolution is needed to prevent fellow mini owners from purchasing replacement windshields on an annual basis. *jb | |||

While driving normally a very very small pebble size stone hits underneath the windshield wiper on the passenger's side. the windshield immideiatly spiders all over the window. i've been told all the problems with the bmw windshields were corrected, but i've heard from over 20 fellow mini owners of random cracking and failures within the first 2000 miles!!! this is totally unacceptable, and it isnt covered under warranty becuase it was the result of an impact.*ak |
