Auto window issues.
Sorry if this has been posted already, but I've been having an issue with my driver's side window.
I just bought a 2015 Lariat fx4 about a week ago and I love it more than life itself. However...
Occasionally when I have the window down completely and go to close it with the one pull click, it will go about half way, stop, come down a little and stop again.
Although it doesn't happen every time, I've had it happen a hand full of times since I initially noticed it.
Anyone else having this issue?

Power windows with an "auto up" feature, are required to have an anti pinch feature. Basically if you let the window go up automatically, and a child or pet sticks their arm or head in there, it won't jam and or injure them. Not sure if you are in a cold climate where ice could be causing the window to bind enough to cause it to reverse and stop? If not there must be too much friction in the window track. Something you can try before you make a trip to the dealer is relearn the window. Put the window all the way down without pushing the switch past the detent that makes it go down automatically, and hold the switch in that position for a few seconds after the window stops. Then do the same thing in the up. This lets the control module learn the window position. This is usually required after the battery is disconnected too. Power sunroofs with an auto close feature will usually have to have this done as well. Hope I could help

Sounds like a great idea, I'll give it a shot and let you know if you saved me a trip to the dealers, thanks!
