If your power window won’t roll up or down and you’re thinking of getting it checked out, you might be wondering:
“Does Safelite fix window motors?”
The answer is: No, Safelite does not typically repair or replace window motors.
Safelite specializes in auto glass services, such as:
- Windshield replacement and repair
- Side and rear window glass replacement
- Windshield recalibration for ADAS systems
- Mobile glass service at your home or office
Window motor repairs fall outside of their service area because they involve mechanical and electrical work, not just glass replacement.
What Safelite Does Handle
If your window is stuck because the glass is broken or came off track, Safelite can replace the glass itself. But if the motor, switch, or regulator is faulty, you’ll need a mechanic or auto body shop that handles power window systems.
Who Fixes Window Motors?
For window motor and regulator issues, consider:
- General mechanics or auto repair shops
- Auto body shops
- Mobile window repair specialists (not glass-only services like Safelite)
- Dealership service departments, especially for newer vehicles
They can diagnose the issue and replace components like:
- Window motor
- Regulator (which moves the glass)
- Window switch or wiring
Final Thoughts
Safelite does not fix window motors, as their focus is strictly on glass. If your window issue is electrical or mechanical (like a broken motor or regulator), a qualified mechanic or auto body shop is your best bet for getting it fixed right.
