slow passenger power window

ok i've done extensive searches and couldn't find anyone with the exact same problem as mine

the passenger power window rolls down slowly, very slowly, then stops maybe about 4 or 5 inches down, but with some addition hand force and pushing the button at the same time, it can get down all the way.

but...rolling it up works perfectly, so i don't think it's a faulty motor...any suggestions?

there is a TSB on this, mine had the same problem and I fixed it. Remove your door panel and check the run channel behind the door frame and make sure it is secure in the frame. Mine wasnt causing the window to roll up and down very slowly. The dealer replaced my regulator thinking that was the problem, but once I found the TSB, it fixed the problem.

Hmmm, I had the same problem, I took it to the dealer and they fixed it. they told me the tracks had to be relubed. Take it in and see what they tell you.

thats pretty much what the TSB is. they readjust and lube the run channel.

actually i kinda got it working now, took out the door panel and all i did was put grease on the tracks and now goes down good just like the driver's side

however it still makes this annoying loud pitched squealing noise... ahhh whatever it works now.

Make sure to check the weathering that it isn't getting stuck or fell off.
