Genuine experience carries a lot more credibility than the ability to answer a question.
My right side front passenger one failed, it was under warranty though... Not sure how much it was.
my driver side window messed up. i had to get a new regulator. paid $155 for a new one. i put it in myself, though. it took me about an hour to do because it was my first time and because i had to take the window out, so expect to pay for two hours labor if you get it done at the dealer. i had to do it myself because i'm way past the end of my warranty--i've put on 20k this year alone. but, of course, if you're still under warranty, you have nothing to worry about.
iits the regulator. how do u replace it urself? whats the WHOLE process? i'm a do it urselfer.

-take the inside panel of the door off
-unscrew the window from the regulator
-take the window out (i put mine on the backseat)
-unscrew the regualator assembly from the door
-do everything backwards to put the new one in
sorry, i don't have any pics, it's nighttime here. i'll probably post some tomorrow, if i can remember.
how do you take out the glass?

there are two screws holding it in. it's screwed directly to the regulator ass.
make sure the window is al the way up. you should see them connected to the sliding part of the assembly.
sorry, my wife has the car so i can't take any pics.
this a common problem with our cars? cuz my rear right side window goes down, but dosnt come back up
i'm thinking so. my dealer told me that he has had to order that part many times. he didn't give me a definate number, though.
