My 2007 Nissan Tiida's windows won't work. I've had it looked at by the local Nissan dealership who say all of the electric window motors are broken and need replacing (it's a sedan). Their quote is $3000 for four window motors and the main fuse. Is this common in these cars? The car cost me $3000 second-hand to buy. Should I fix it? Can I not use generic parts?

13 Sep 2022I'd be ignoring the Nissan dealer in question and taking the car to an auto electrician. You might just find that the problem is something much simpler than all four windows needing replacement. Generic parts will probably not be an option, but wrecking yards are full of Tiidas with electric windows waiting to be fitted to other Tiidas.
Meantime, I'd be very suspicious of the Nissan dealer's quote. For a start, replacing the windows really shouldn't cost that much. Also, why do all four windows need replacing? Did they all fail together? If they did, it's far more likely the problem is with a fuse, relay, a switch or the body computer, rather than four individual assemblies failing in unison. If the dealer doesn't want to do the job (which is what the quote is telling me) they should just say so, and not come up with ridiculous quotes like this one.
