Review on 🔌 Dorman 748-131: High-Quality Power Window Motor and Regulator Assembly, Front Driver Side for Honda Models - Black by Brett Morrison

The same cheap plastic parts keep breaking. Window regulators are easy to remove and install. Do not pull on the glass. Simply use the wire hangers as hooks at the top of the track after removing the door cover and switch connectors. Now carry out the inspection work. 99.9% of the time, the cheap plastic piece that goes into the vertical skid plate breaks. The cable rarely breaks, the motors almost never break. So what are you paying for here? You are paying for a complete regulator with the engine as Honda uses two cheap plastic parts that are notoriously known to fail. A class action lawsuit is currently pending against Honda over these consistently broken parts. Whatever brand you wear, they will break. I was hoping Dorman would fix the bug, but no, these break even faster. My Honda Element front windows play musical glitches, one after the other. This break occurs as follows: First, the plastic guide hook breaks. This causes the window to wobble very slightly and you will experience additional slight noises and jerks when opening and closing the window. Then one day when you don't have to give anything. The seat of the leash breaks, one end of the leash comes loose and your window falls down. Congratulations, the planned obsolescence mission is complete. It's so common now that you can now buy a whole new ESC without a motor. This will save you about half. Don't think you're going to fix that skid plate. The nylon was cast in perforated metal. To build one that doesn't break would require an entire machined part with individual parts made from nylon or Delrin. But don't think you're alone. The Honda Pilot power window plate is almost identical and keeps breaking. Dorman uses the same skid plate, so their part will fail due to a design flaw at Honda. Keep your receipts. If the class action goes through Dorman, he has to pay and they will bill Honda. How does it feel when Honda takes you?
