Hello, I had my window regulator and motor replaced in the driver side door because the window was going off the track and when its all the way down you can slide the window around. Now a weeklater the same problem is back. My mechanic is saying the window track. I called up advanced auto and they dont sell it and they said it's very hard to get because its part of the door frame. Anyone can help me or know what the problem can be. I believe its the regulator again. Please help thank you.

Hi pmp,

Have you checked the door glass run channel?
If there are too tight, they would restrict the glass movement and cause it to go off track.
