I have never had problems with mine. But if it is dirty it will open and close slowly. I clean the window and the weatherstripping. I then use a little spray silicone on the track and it works like it should.

I assume you're talking about a manual slider? If so, I concur with tazo...I 've taken a can of compressed air and blew out the gunk from the tracks and then a little spray silicone. It's always worked for both of mine.

the service manager read the service bulletin and the suggested steps to go about diagnosing/fixing and there were a few different things they were going to have to look at.it's going in tomorrow.
the last couple inches or so closing as been slow since the truck was new but it always closed.first time i opened it this year and it wouldn't close on it's own.

What is thy meaning of warm? I usually have to mow the grass around the snow in May but by June it's all gone. In late Sept I am usually mowing around the ice or snow again. Warm for me is anything in the 40's.
Wish I knew about the TSB for the rear window. I just got my truck back from the ford dealer for the ABS Light due to a bad sensor in the rear diff. It's a 12 hour drive so I had to take vacation time for that. The only reason I use the rear sliding window is to equalize the pressure of the cab when the moon-roof is open.

just warm enough to have the slider open.and that would depend on how tough a person is.
i didn't know about the tsb either.i was at the dealership getting my oil changed and walked over to the service man and asked about the window.he got on the puter and found the tsb.hopefully this fixes it.
