Re: Cherokee power window failures...has yours failed yet?
My old 99 XJ lost both front electric windows to the same problem. It
happened in 2001 or 2002 can't remember exactly when, but it was not in
warranty. I did the same thing and bought the $105 part and did it
myself, but just think about all the soccer moms that it happened to and
the dealer took them for another $200 in labor.
