I think my window tracks have actually etched my glass.

Thar scared the shit out of me the first time it happened. Especially at 0500, not completely awake and going to work.

I get that moisture a little when I wash the car. mostly on the rear edge.
not the streak down the middle though.
I don't drive it much in the rain, but I'm sure it would be they same as well.
I think cleaning and treating the seals would help.

Mine too, and they squeal like a stuck pig when it's even remotely humid outside, let alone wet.

Mine left a nice straight scratch on the outside of the glass.

Add me to the scratched glass club. I'm the person from the TSB about this. Windows would get frozen shut and go in to the failure mode when the door was opened. You know this is happening because the window switch will flash and you have to reset the thing before it will roll up or down again.
