Window issues when cold

[thejean]

My windows struggle to go up and down when it's -20C or less outside. You guys have the same issue? Oh yeah, I have a 2008 V8.

[jens]

Yes and I have 2006 PF.

[thejean]

Is there a fix for it?

Is there a fix for it?

my 05 has no problem.

[Captain]

My 08 does have this problem too but only when it was -18 and the windows were frozen. But all other times no

[Gonzo]

I have a newer '08 and I noticed the motors seems weaker that other vehicles I've owned w/ powered windows.

Well, last night with my family in the vehicle and a highway drive ahead of me, having a window stuck down at -25 celcius would have been unacceptable (I had to pull on it to get it to go back up but any colder and I am thinking it would not have gone up). We just got back from Florida and we had no winter coats with us which exacerbated the issue. This 'little issue' needs to be brought to the attention of Nissan. I'm going to take mine to the dealer and DEMAND they do something about it. I'm not normally a jerk about things like this but this one is to me unacceptable. It could leave you stranded in extreme cold with a window stuck down and you can't drive because the window is stuck down. You can sit there an blast heat until the thing runs out of gas but that is not a solution in my opinion. Anyway, it's a safety issue and needs to be addressed. JC

Maybe needs some lubrication? It was -30C here yesterday, and my 05 is no problem up or down. If only the blower motor wasn't shot...

Possibly, but the dang truck is only 5 months old. Seems like a bad window motor design to me.
