Dealership/Window Question
Well you all know when you open the door to the car the window goes down slightly, then you close it and it goes back up. Well the windows werent going back up earlier, they would go down a little bit, and just stay down slightly.
I took it to the dealer and service guy came out, lowered the window, banged the doors a little bit and it was fixed! Then he says I need to reprogram the windows for $90-$100, or just keep banging the doors. So is what he saying true? Do I need to "reprogram" something? The car is under warranty so I dont mind it, just dont want to waste time.

I've had the same problem and since cleaning it, it's worked 100%.
