This is fairly simple to reset. Just open all windows all the way and hold the switches down for a few secs, then close them all the way and hold all switches up again for a few secs. This way you 'teach' the computer how far the windows open close.

my car is also about 2 months and i have this same problem. I think that the tinting of the window is the problem. I gonna try the suggested method to see if it works.

Yes it works. I do this each time I get the error message (about once a month). It seems it happens when the weather is hot or one of the windows is too dirty. The window seal is probably preventing the window from properly closing in such conditions hence the error message.
