Answer 1 - "Sticky" Window OperationAlthough I'm not familiar with your vehicle, what you describe is usually caused by the window glass "binding" in the channels [guides/tracks] inside the door.

Window channel binding is caused by misalignment of one or more of the guide channels. Channel/guide track misalignment is usually caused by one or both of two things:

  • One or more of the fasteners for the channels have vibrated loose, allowing the channel to shift position, or
  • One or more of the fasteners, or the door panel to which the fasteners connect has broken due to vibration caused metal fatigue.

The solution to this problem it to find and identify the failure, properly realign the channel(s)/guide, and properly and securely fasten the connection.

If the door inner panel metal has actually cracked or broken then I always "splice" in a metal reinforcement over the separation point. I use "Pop" rivets to secure the reinforcement.
