mine haven’t failed yet, but they’re slow as fuck, and I’ve had to clean the switches on the driver’s controls twice because one kept getting stuck down (not the switch, the window - the switch up position wouldn’t make contact)
conversely, I’ve never had a manual window fail, and in fact the windows on one car in my driveway right now can be actuated more quickly casually cranking by hand than any of the motorized ones on my own car. and the window is around 30% taller for the manual one.
Every car I had with manual windows had at least one broken crank handle.
I’ve never broken a powered window.
Every car I’ve had with electric windows has had a window motor fail.

Did you ever have the window fall off the track into the door? Man, that sucked
