* When the window has dropped into the door.
* When the window's movement is unusually slow.
* When the window does not go down or up all the way.

* When the window goes up partially, then drops back down again.
Manual Windows
* When turning the handle, nothing happens.
* The handle becomes very stiff to operate.
* The window will only partially open or close.
* The window drops down into the door.
NOTE
