For me it's just a little picky with how long you hold down before releasing.
Certainly works on the 2nd try if not the first.

Any chance you have the passenger window lock engaged?

there really is no need for a video.
You press the down control for the window all the way to trigger the automatic mode.
but it doesn't continue to lower when you let go.
It's pretty entertaining when you see the driver's window continue to go down while the passenger's stops.

I thought I had this problem, Began making SURE I was pulling the button for the auto up and haven't had issues since. I think it was Just the length of time that u need to hold it. I don't hold it for that long at all, but certainly when it didnt work I was more just flicking it.

Believe someone mentioned it's how long u hold it for too.

Oh wow, I thought it was when one would open the door the window goes down and when you close it, it goes up. I thought it was that mechanism.

I remember that happening on a lot of rentals we've had. If it happens to everyone, I think it was meant like that for a reason, because I hate it when I want the window down only a little and it goes down all the way by it's self

I noticed that this only happens when I'm opening both the driver and passenger window at the same time. Other than that it works flawlessly.

Yep, I'm having the same issue... I thought it was just me too - when I notice it, if I take a moment and hold the button for a second, then it works just fine.

haha I remember when I wasn't used to dual auto but after driving a lexus for 8 years I got the hang of the triggers for it.
This car won't listen to me when it comes to the windows

I have one of these:



Comfort is probably the last thing lol. I could care less if it doesn't go all the way down the first time I tell it too

I'm experiencing something similar as well.

I don't think its that big a deal since I can get it on the second/third try. Its the inconsistency that really bugs me when I push both the driver and passenger side buttons down same angle same force and only 1 window goes down.
