    I have a '97 Accord. The driver side power window died in 2001, so I had the
    dealer fix it (so presumably they used genuine honda parts). Now it died
    again, so it seems like it only lasts for 4 years. What's up with that?

    I think that is your bad luck. Most doors last for the life of the car.
    Why don't you go to a junkyard and get a door motor and replace it
    yourself.

    Sometimes lubricating the power window regulator components will eliminate
    the slow movement of the window in both the upwards and downwards
    directions. In many cases this is the problem--and not the power window
    regulator motor itself.

    I'm going to test drive a '97 Accord tomorrow and may end up purchasing it
    for a second vehicle. I hope the '97 models were good ones overall. I like
    the body style of that generation Accord.
