After 2 months of owning the new Hybrid, I noticed a problem with the driver's window not going up. It would go all the way to the top, then back to about half-way down. Sounds like an erectile dysfunction, I know. But it is as equally serious! I took it to the dealer, they lubed it ... kept happening. After 3 lubrication trips... still a problem. Finally, after a year (and my suggestion that they use a "synthetic lubrication", maybe comparable to KY) they re-lubed it, and also finally figured out that they could re-programed window... and it seemed ok at first... but still happening, especially on highway driving. If I stop the car, get out and push in on the outside, the window goes up ok. Its not a pleasant thing on major highways, especially in the winter months. Maybe I need some Viagara in the mechanism to keep it up. It has been a royal pain, for the past 18 months, but it is not happening as frequently.

Drivers window goes up and down very slowly, it also scratches the glass and makes scraping noises.I had it lubed twice, reprogrammed, but still a real pain.My tint is ruined. Dealer is somewhat unsympathetic to this problem...
