>>>How many busted Pantera window gears have you worked with?

They are not normally a go/no-go item.   They crack and start to fall 
apart, and will work a little bit, jam a little bit, you reverse them and then 
they go forward, etc.   The failure mode is normally slow until they finally 
fail completely.   But most people change them before they get to that point.
