Default Faulty Window Switches?

Are anyone else's windows acting weird? When I pull or push the switches to auto, sometimes a window will stop mid way or start rolling back down. It seems to happen more frequently when I roll down the front windows with auto, then hold the switches on the back windows to roll them up or down.

For about 5 days, my auto roll up/down was not working at all on the driver's side... then it started working again.

This sounds like the window bounce back feature. See page 90 of your manual, if I remember right the auto up portion is temporarily disabled once the bounce back has been activated. Not for 5 days though lol.

You might have to retrain them or something is making them think they are pinching something and they are reversing like they should.

I noticed this will happen if you're on a real bumpy road and try the auto roll up. Not sure why it affects it.

Because of the weight of the glass hitting a bump is the same as the window hitting something so it reverses. Any increase in the current needed by the motor triggers it to reverse.

I think there are instructions on how to retrain the window in the manual.
