1. the rear right window would make a click sound when trying to close/open. 2. the window stopped responding to the power button and would not go up/down. the window glass then slid down by itself. since i was driving i could not do anything. my infant was in the back seat and the window glass came down and would not close. the wind was coming creating safety hazard. i stopped to bring the glass up by hand but it would not stay up and slid down all the time. 3. ii had to get the window regulator changed which cost $260. this window was very rarely used for up/down through the power switch.  view
