Help: Driver's side door window shattered - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

gid · 12-22-2008, 01:12 AM

can this be related to the '09 MATRIX ( or was it the '09 COROLLA ?) recall where the drivers side window shattered due to a loose bolt ( if I remeber right ) . Do notice the side windows vibrate ( creak ) when window is down about 4 > 6 inches ) , so we roll them up or down until it stops . Wonder if widow ( bottom of glass ) is not seated properly in the metal track mechamism that's attached to the handle or motor

. I've had to replace the metal track mechanisn when it rots out over time and bottom of glass pops out . The window would either get jammed when rolling it up or fall down inside the door

. Big pain in the

to fix .

I've had small stones get between the window and door and when rolled down it scratches the glass , kinda like a diamond . Some of us have SH*T for luck

. Maybe we should start a website or forum for that . Make for good counseling . The S.F.L.A..

Y.S. , the site was slow and clicked it once and ended up with 3 posts

. We have VERIZON . We can't get the 3 m.b.p.s. here

. This end of town remains in the ice age

. Otherwise we'd be able to watch H.D.T.V. off the internet on the new 32" L.C.D. without it pausing all the time

. We do surf the net , watch shows , music videos , and visit this site on occasion . TAKE CARE

completed by dealer, but experienced major hassles. Let's just say, be armed with LOTS of knowledge. expect them to try to blame ANYTHING in an effort to NOT do it.

If this happens to any more people out there, make sure you report it because if you don't, then this glass problem will fade into history and nothing will be done about it.
