THE FRONT WINDOWS ON MY TRUCK WOULD COME OFF TRACK WHILE BEING ROLLED UP WHEN TRAVELING. I DRIVE A 2004 CHEVROLET S10 CREW CAB. I HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR AWHILE. EVERY TIME I TOOK VEHICLE TO CHEVROLET FOR REPAIRS THEY WOULD SAY IT WAS FIXED, BUT IT WASN'T. THEN THEY FOUND OUT FROM GM THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM IN A LOT OF THE SAME TRUCKS. SO GM TOLD THE DEALERSHIP TO PUT SHIMS IN THE WINDOWS TO KEEP THEM ON TRACK. SINCE THIS HAS BEEN FIXED I HAVE HAD TO TAKE IT IN TO CHEVROLET AGAIN FOR THE WINDOW MOTOR BURNING OUT FROM THE PRESSURE THE SHIMS WERE PUTTING ON THE MOTOR.*AK
