The passenger front window quit. It will start up the track, tilt toward and jam. At that point the window will not rise any further. I can force the window to rise all the way by pushing the window towards the back of its' slot while pushing the window power up button. What can cause this condition?

Hi there,

You will have to remove the door trim and check the alignment of the window runners and lube all the regulator slides and gears, There is special lube for the window runners as well , don't just use any spray as this will start to bind up as it will collect the dust and muck .
