Well it happend to me and the temporary fix was to how do you say bang lightly with you hand in the area right above the window switch. Like in the middle of the door. And at the same time hit the window switch, in your case up. It worked for me. So not sure it will help you out. Also I heard the window motor was on back order so keep that in the back of your head when you goto the dealer.

your motor might be fried which I would find hard to believe. What were you doing when it happened??? You might want to take your door panel off and reset the motor it's self.

Same here with my window it would start to work sometime and usually it would get stuck when park for awhile. Took it to the dealer and was told the motor was bad. Had to wait a week for the motor because it was on back order. Got a call from the dealer yesterday and the car is at the dealer right now being worked on. I hope it get fix, guess I have to wait for them to call me later today and find out.

Quick and easy fix, under warranty. I've had my passenger side motor replaced a couple of months ago, now I'm getting my driver's side replaced..... No biggie, just gotta wait for the parts.

My passenger window just started to roll itself halfway down after I put it up. I have to hold the switch up for a few seconds after it goes up to get it to stay up. I need to get back to the dealer...

Yep, get the replacement. I had the EXACT same problem - I think there's a wire that is prone to getting loose on the motor.

I got the motor replaced and its worked perfectly for over a year.

well just to update you guys, i got my car fixed today but now there is another problem. what they did was first off replaced the regulator. that fixed the 10mm window up and down problem when you open and close the door.

but the motor now makes a sound as if it were straining or just not working well, anywho if the problem continues its obviously the motor.

just wanted to update you guys

same here, they replaced the regulator and the motor now but htis is the 3rd time comming in, the alignment is way off, so annoying, wind noise now, its so loud, and now this morning going to work i had the window down and now its stuck down.

make sure once they do work with this problem is the alignment is perfect, cause if its off by a 1 mm it will screw things up,


anyways i have an appointment later today i'll keep you guys updated.
