Condition
Some customers may comment that the front door glass is slow or noisy when moving up or down or the window is inoperative.
Cause
The window run channel may be adjusted improperly which may cause the following:
^ The glass may be slow/non-moving.
^ The glass wears through the flocking on the weatherstrip and allows direct contact between the glass and the rubber of the weatherstrip, which causes drag.
^ Bent regulator arms may be due to glass drag from the run window channel.
Correction
Adjust the window run channel upper attachment full forward and the lower attachment full rearward. Replace run channel and/or weatherstrip, if necessary.
