anyone else got this? since i got this truck, the power windows make a mechanical popping, creaking noise when they get halfway down, which stops when the window is nearly fully down. it occurs as window goes up and down, like it is slightly misalighned. not sure if I should make issue with the dealer, as he is likely to say it is normal. anyone else?

 

Ran into this problem with mine. Replaced the motor and regulator (not to mention almost cut off my thumb with regulator). Noise is gone.

I had the same problem with my new truck. I took it to the dealer and they said it was missing a bolt. It work great now.
