    lots of people have had this problem. i've had it on two windows. mine were covered under warranty, but i can't imagine it would cost too much. $100 tops i would hope for something so common.

    My driver window has started to stop about 1/2 way up. Then you have to tap the switch a few times to counter it going down again...and go all the way up instead. Is there a TSB on this or a fix that people are aware of?

    Its the anti-pinch feature thinking something is in the way of the window closing. It happens when heat makes the rubber on the weather stripping softer. No fix that I'm aware of.

    The work around is this:

    1. Roll up your windows at night when it's cooler outside and then don't open them during the day

    2. Use the A/C.
