Mine quit working after only a few months. Took it back to the dealer for the TSB. The messed up the install -- stripped some threads and tore the inner plastic lining which now I will replace rather than have some careless service tech screw it up again. So far, the window still works (knock on wood) after a year.

Mine is completely random.

It ranges from:
Working fine.
Goes halfway (or any variation of part of the way) down when putting the top down.
Not going down at all when putting the top down.
Not auto downing regardless of top.

I need an old priest and a young priest...

i've never had this problem with any other honda i have ever had, but i guess there are lots of people having this problem and it's too bad cause honda really puts out quality products.. but i gotta say they are kinda dropping the ball by not releasing some kind of fix.. , like a real one, not a replacement...

Hey, my driver's side window started working again (knock on wood)!

It's been working right for the past week. Let's hope it keeps working!

Funny timing, my 2002 with 6800 miles just developed this problem yesterday. When lowering the top it actually lowers about 1" and then stops. When I use the power window button on the door it works fine. Based on the wonderful feedback here I think I will wait to get mine fixed. I also have a 2002 Civic DX sedan (snow car), I have a problem with these windows also you have to roll them down the old fashioned way. Awe the problems in life.

I just got a call from Honda saying my window regulator was in. I'll let you guys know how it goes. This is NOT what would be done on the normal TSB, but since mine has been done before the dealer is going to try this.
