NHTSA complaint #10467890, filed 2012-07, 3,021 miles“More than 50 percent of 2003-2007 Nissan's have issues with power windows, even higher percentage with the 350Z. Still no recalls have been issued, it is a safety issue should the door be jammed the next escape route would be threw the window. If the window is not operating then you have a very serious problem. Also in the case that the car is submerged in water all power windows are functional for about 30 seconds but not if they are constantly getting stuck. I have brought my 2004 Nissan 350Z for the same repair of the driver side power window half a dozen times while under warranty. …”
