Rear window not working
So my rear right passenger window is not working. I can hear the motor trying to run, but it does not really have much power to raise or lower. The window also lowers by itself occasionally about an inch if driving, and I have to manually push it up.
I have changed both fuses, and that did not work, so it must be something else. For a few weeks the window would make a "clunk" sound halfway down when it was still working.
What do you guys think it is? Maybe something got loose in there? Or the motor for the window is bad?

I searched and found a similar problem - the guy's window had become unaligned with the mechanism that holds it, and he glued it with silicone and it was solved.
I may try that, I hope it isn't too difficult getting that rear panel open. Maybe a regular window repair shop can fix it?

Yeah i have the same exact issue and i've found the same results of someone suggesting the glass coming off from the bracket. I'm taking in for service next week and i'm gonna have them take a look at it. I want it fixed because that window not going down takes away from the cool factor of opening all windows from the key fob
