I wasn't complaining about the windows freezing; I've lived in the frozen north for my entire adult life and have replaced, personally, my share of burnt out window motors, bent arms, and broken nylon guides before I learned to stop using the darn electric window switches to try and break loose frozen windows. Better to just let'em stay shut until they thaw on their own or you can get some deicer on'em. I don't like the DESIGN, that's all. I'd rather the windows didn't have an auto-crack function, that's all. What you say is true; any window would have frozen in the conditions I described (and we get those conditions frequently). It'd be better to have windows that didn't subject themselves automatically to enough stress to cause them to shut down and require a reset, that's all.
Thanks..
