Is this somehing covered under waranty, still under 100,000. or is there something I can grease-up. Any help would be awsome!! Thanks guy's.....

What year truck?

The 100K warranty you mentioned...is it for the whole truck or are you referring to the warranty for your engine?

just get some SILICONE spray, spry the channel the window rides in.just be careful, the firt time the window goes down it will seem like it is going through the bottom of the door . i like to use crc brand,but have used prestone silicone spray with good results also.

Silicone spary is an excellent idea provided the problem is indeed a lubrication problem.

Ok.. I'll try the silicone spray since I already have a can of it, just seems messy... Do I have to take the inside panel off to lube, or can I just spray down the sides? All the help is appreciated, Thanks again!!
