The arms that raise and lower the power window pretzeled themselves. This happened once before and I was able to make a roadside repair but they're too bent now and the regulator needs to be replaced.
I have a feeling that the ones I'd find at the junk yard wouldn't be much better than what I have now because this problem seems to stem from a design flaw. Has anyone bought the mechanism from the dealer or an aftermarket supplier?
It looks to me that the window motor has already been replaced.
For now, I've removed the mechanism and duct taped the window closed.
Edit: I see a number of the regulators on eBay for around 50.00.
