Both rear windows on our 02 Grand wont stay up while I'm driving. Its like they both went off track at the same time. Any Ideas?

The window regulators are a cable wrapped on a drum and geared to the motors. Everything is plastic and I'm assuming the gears on the drums are stripped. That's what happened to one of mine.

Thanks Dave that's what I figured but both within 2 days of each other! Bad timing. I ordered new regulators from Rockauto should be here soon.

I bought one of those regulators from rockauto and it went in perfectly. It's been working fine for about 3 years now.

They went right in very easy. Both sides had broken cables.
