automatic window motors, 2 down and counting

Well, about 2-3 weeks ago I replaced the driver-side window motor after getting tired of pulling it up manually. Now, the passenger side needs to be replaced. The same thing, the motor is bad.

I have a 2009 CX9 w 75K on it. Are the window motors going bad a common thing or did I just draw a bad batch? Also, I have my windows set to Auto-roll up and down...does this feature help to burn them out faster?

Thank you for your feedback,

It happened with me too (2010 model). I replaced them both at the same time. The same failure interval of 3 weeks!
