Pics and punctuation? I've never heard of the windows causing damage.

It's not the windows that will rub on the roof to cause damage - it's the bow assembly screws that run along the top of the bar. The elastic straps connecting the bow rods eventually lose their tension and rub holes in the roof gradually.

Unfortunately, the only fix Nissan has come up with is that the elastic straps need to be sewn over and double stitched to help prevent this. There is also a Nissan TSB out for this fix - make sure your dealer knows about it.

Good luck!
