    My passenger side window makes a loud screetching sound when rolling it down. Does anyone else have this issue. I only have 2k miles on this truck and it's really annoying.

    My driver side did that in the summer. I think dirt gets in the seals an pushes on the window. I took a rag to clean out the seals when the window was down.

    1. Roll your window down.
    2. Take rubbing alcohol, wet a corner of a rag with it.
    3. Clean the felt seal, both inside and outside.

    Prepare to be amazed at the dirt you will clean off.
