Anyone seen situations where you raise the Window using the "Auto Up" switch, but it goes 2/3 of the way up, then right back down to the bottom?

Then when I click it up again, it goes straight to the top (as it should). This glitch only happens when I first do it. Weird.

Something is triggering the antitrap function, may even be as simple as dirt or grit in the window channel....dealer should be able to cure it pretty quickly

This happened to me on the front passengers' window. After trying it once or twice, an error came on in the message window about the window trip fault or something. I turned the car off, then back on and all was fine. Wierd.

This happened to me many times especially when you hit the button when the car is in motion. I just thought it is too minor to bring it in for service.

Same here. It will be addressed when it goes back in to the dealer. But as my luck would have it, it probably can't be re-created there.
