    Hey guys, I have a '15 Taco and have noticed that with the driver window partly down while driving at highway speeds, it has a bit of a loud rattle. I can physically move it with my hand. The passenger window does not do this. Has anyone else noticed this and would it be covered under warranty? I also got the 5 year mechanical failure warranty (Damn salesman) but not sure if that would cover this problem. Thoughts?

    my 2013 started making a rattling noise and then fell out of one side of the track eventually. after taking the door skin off, i found one window tab mount bolt was loose and had pulled itself free. easy fix.

    Like sr5vic said. There are two bolts that hold the window support in place. It should be covered under your warranty. It's a very common problem but make sure the Tech removes both bolts and reinstall with loctite. No loctite and the problem will return.
