Electrical System · reported Feb 12, 2021
My driver side window turns completely outward when I start my car. It also happens when I lock the door. I have to physically turn it back to the correct position before I can drive. I went to the lexus dealership, and was told that it would cost me over $1200 to have it repaired. I AM a disabled senior, and this is a financial hardship on me.
