The door glass regulator is faulty and is a non serviceable part, needs to be replaced as an assy.

Here is a video of the job being done on a similar car.

Hi ricegrinder,

You can try using silicone spray to lubricate the runchannels.

Normally it is the runchannels that are the cause of the problem. This vehicle comes with minimal adjustment required for replacement of motor.

Hope this helps.

If the glass keeps going out of alignment while moving up, check the run channels. Try some silicone based lubricants.

The regulator is the assembly that allows you to raise and lower the glass. The motor is part of that assembly. When the glass is sluggish, the motor, switch, and wiring are okay. The rubber channels the glass slides in can become sticky. Spray them liberally with Silicone Spray Lube. It goes on like water, evaporates, and leaves a film of "slippery" behind. Works real well for sliding tight radiator and heater hoses onto metal pipes too. You can find it at auto parts stores and hardware stores. Chrysler dealers have it in the parts departments too and I'm sure you would find it at other dealers.

As for the hazy windshield, does it have moisture you can wipe off? If so, the air conditioning is supposed to run in the defrost mode to condense the humidity from the air and dry it before it blows it onto the windshield.

Hi teardrop609,

If the glass can open and close completely, use a garden hose to spray some water into the door along the run channels and test, if windows work well, replace the run channel, it should solve the problem.

You can try some rubber rejunevating fluids or silicone/wax spray. NEVER use oil based sprays such as WD40 etc, will cause more problem.
