    Anyone's windows rattle like crazy when partially open? Whether I crack the windows, or have them half way the windows rattle. Sometimes it is unbearable I roll my windows up. Anyone having this issue?

    Just my driver window from what I can hear. I have no idea what is causing it. It sounds like adhesive sticking and unsticking on mine.

    YES, my drivers side rattles too. Maybe it's because my tint isn't dark enough :notsure:

    Has anyone mentioned this issue to the dealer? And If so, did they do anything to mend this problem?

    Not yet, but my truck has a maintenance reminder showing on the dash. In the next week or so i'll get it in and bring it up.

    I had this problem on my second gen. Pulled the door panel and found the nut holding the window mechanism had come loose. It's an easy 5 minute job.

    I just started having the same problem with both front windows. It sounds the worst when they are cracked about 1/4 of the way down.

    I had the same problem on my left rear window. I removed the door panel and water proof plastic and found one of the window tracks had come loose from the bottom stud. I don't remember if it was the front or rear track, but it fixed the problem with a nut and washer.

    I never found the original nut in the bottom of the door, so I don't know if it was ever there or not.

    My windows rattle when their not all the way up or all the way down. They will rattle at any amount of being opened.

    My rear passenger window rattled like crazy when just slightly cracked, when rolled down pretty far it didn't do it. I recently installed AVS vent visors, now the rear doesn't do it any more!


    BUT

    Now the damn rear driver side window rattles when cracked......:facepalm:

    Yes, all the time. Dealership can never "replicate" the problem
