THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW HAS BEEN FIXED AT LEAST A COUPLE OF TIMES FOR NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY:STICKING AND NOT ROLLING UP AND DOWN. THE WINDOW WAS NEVER PROPERLY FIXED ANY OF THE TIMES, BECAUSE WHILE IT WAS ROLLED UP, IT WOULD RATTLE WHEN THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. I GAVE UP ON TAKING IT TO THE DEALER TO REPAIR AGAIN, BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT FIX IT PROPERLY. FINALLY, WHILE DRIVING AT A SPED OF APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE PASSENGER ROLLED THE WINDOW HALF WAY DOWN, AND THE WINDOW FELL COMPLETELY INSIDE THE DOOR AND WILL NOT ROLL UP AGAIN! *AK
