I am...Lately I usually have to press the button twice before the window responds. Is there a TSB? I need a lot of little issues dealt with but I am so reluctant to bring my car to the dealers in this area.

The only problem I ever had with my power window was a clicking sound when it rolled all the way down. A quick trip to the local Nissan Dealership took care of that problem. (Warranty Fix)

Rumor has it that these motors are on backorder due to the fact that alot of these motors are burning out. IT IS A WARRANTY FIX.

sorry to be off topic but do people have issues with their interior panels not fitting together flushly? Ie. door sills, pieces of the dash etc? My interior is like this and it makes it seem very cheap

About the window motors: I just had an issue with my passenger side window last week. It basically went all teh way down, and then it woudln't respond when i tried to put it up (tried the key in door, driver and passenger controls). The whole thing about these being on backorder is a myth... my dealer ordered the part and had it 3 days later.

About the cheap interior: I've heard if you take the door panels off (not too hard to do, check around and I'm sure you can find a DIY) and put some electrical tape between the contact points, the rattling will stop. I haven't had a chance to do it myself but I've heard it works great.
