I am having the same problem with my 99 civic hatchback. Window comes out of the track if I roll it down too far. I can get the panel off and the window back in the track and panel back on in under 10 minutes now, but I'd like to get it fixed so it doesn't keep happening. I'll try the lube. What is a window regulator? Is it hard to install? I think something is bent, not necessarily the track, due to cranking on the window after an ice storm.
The door lock also does not work on my driver's side. It felt like it was failing for a while and then finally stopped working. Can anyone give me any
pointers on what the cause/fix might be?

Well as far as the door lock I'm not sure, but the window regulator is the device that rolls your window up and down. I've been looking for info on how to insall it but no luck yet. I asked at the Honda dealership how much to install and they said $229.00. That's to f__king much for me. I'll keep on looking for more info but I think I'll just buy the regulator and do it my self. I'll let you all know how it went.

Ok so I finally bought a new window regulator (manual) for about $60.00 and replace it my self. It was pretty simple and well worth it. I took me about an hour 30 to 45 mins to finish everything. I replaced it on 9-25-06 and it works perfect I just wish I hadn't waited so long to fix it.
