1996 Honda Civic Wipers & Visibility Problems

Your driver's side window keeps sliding off its track and is very difficult to raise back up, even after previous repairs. Your passenger side window sometimes won't roll up either and requires someone to manually pull it while you operate the button. The fix will likely involve inspecting and repairing the window regulator mechanism and track guides.

MY 1996 HONDA CIVIC HX HAS DRIVER SIDE WINDOW FAILURE WHERE THE WINDOW FALLS OFF THE TRACK AND WILL NOT GO UP OR DOWN. ALSO, THE WINDOW MOLDING AROUND THE DRIVER'S WINDOW BUCKLES AND CAUSES THE WINDOW TO FALL OFF THE TRACK. HAVE HAD IT REPAIRED SEVERAL TIMES AND STILL HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM RECURRING. HAVE READ MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS AS TO THIS SAME PROBLEM, AND AM WONDERING WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN SOME SORT OF RECALL. *JB

WHILE DRIVING UNDER RAINY CONDITIONS THE VEHICLE'S WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. THE DEALER HAD BEEN CONTACTED. PLEASE DESCRIBE FURTHER. *JB
