To Power the Anti-Trap function, you just hold the window up on the window that doenst go down or up by itself. So Say its the drivers window, close the window, and pull the close window button and hold it, past the automatic "click" for a few seconds and it will reset and be automatic again. No need for a dealer visit.

It is not always a software problem. Sometimes its a hardware problem i.e: Motor problem, as many have experienced before. This is why trying the above procedure is the first option but if it comes again, better go to the dealer.
I have a small question for US guys as I am a bit curious and never understood it from day one on this forum. Since your cars are under warranty. Why not take it to the dealer.
In my country and in Saudi, Whenever there's a minimal error in the car, first thing that comes to our mind is DEALER!!! Even if the error comes and goes(i.e: anti-trap, trans slam, airbag, etc..), we just take it to the dealer just to have it checked. Its free and its your right, Why not just take advantage of it.
