Power window switch sticking.

Anyone else have this problem. Pull up to shut the window and the switch sticks.

Yes, I've had my car for about month and the driver door window switch is starting to stick.

This sounds like a good feature. I like the auto down, but wish it also had auto up. Sticky switch to the rescue!

I have the same problem. I don't like it because it continues to power the driver motor for the glass....although it sounds like the autodown feature is tripping the power off after a few seconds. However it powers back up a few seconds later and starts the cycle over again. If you don't have the radio or blower going and are sitting still you can hear the cycle. I will ask the dealer to replace it during my next visit. Not sure a replacement will solve the problem now that I hear others are having the same issue.

Yep I've had the same thing happen to me a couple of times. Driving along I hear a rhythmic tick-tick which is pretty quiet and hard to figure out where it was coming from. Turned out it was the power window clicking on and off like you described. Now I make sure the button doesn't stick up when I use it.
