My driver's side front window makes a god awful screeching sound when lowering the last 3-4 inches. Has anyone else come across this? Any suggestions?

TIA

When I bought my tour, the front passenger side window may have done the same thing. It turned out to be the mechanical lifting assembly and was replaced by the dealer for free costing them over $300.00 Canadian to replace!
I'm not saying that that was definately the same problem but it does sound like it!

Yup, window regulator. Mine did that too. It will eventually stop moving at all. Get one from a wrecker and replace it yourself. Electric motor comes separate, so just buy the regulator. Takes about 4 hours to change.
