Thanks for this video explaining and showing how and why the window goes off the track. I had watched Ponyo Tran's video and got to the point where he replaced the bolt but didn't realize I had to realign the window to the track until I watched your video. I'm pretty sure this saved me some money by doing it myself so here's some beer money for your help! Thank you.

This is one of the BEST DIY YT videos ever made. It's not flashy with visual tricks.. There's not long winded talking about things that don't matter to the issue at hand. Everything is straightforward & simple. Also, I've NEVER seen anyone use grease to make the window move through the track like that... Other mechanics would tell you to buy a while new track or window. AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME JOB !!!

A true mechanic. Problem solving minds can fix almost anything. Great tutorial very thorough and explain how you solved it. Thank you!

Thank you for putting this video up I am 56 years old and had no clue how this window worked I fixed it myself and I followed all your instructions so thank you and kudos to you

Thanks for the great info! Just fixed my wife’s 2020 Camry. I have no idea how the driver window came off its front track but it did. I removed the rear bolt, and the front slipped right in to the track, I reinstalled the bolt, and lubed the tracks with silicone spray. Window works like a charm. Thanks again.

You are a smart man. I went to used parts to buy the rubber rails for $20 each time and glass still went off rails! This fixed it.thank you!

Thank you so much for the video, dude. No useless filler info. Clear-cut and straight to the root of the issue(s).

The glue giving out was my exact problem, Thank you. I called my mechanic and he said to use a 2 part epoxy to glue it back on and that worked great. Close the window and let it sit over night to fully cure. In my Elantra you can unscrew the window holder to properly clean the old glue off to expose the ridges for the glue to cling to. I used a razor blade. Also, silicone spray is much easier instead of trying to stuff grease in the cracks using a Q-tip. Awesome video. Thank you Sir.

If only all KZfaq videos were communicated this clearly and illustrated so anybody could understand it... Great job

Thank you so much! Did this to fix my window that had unglued and gone off the rail. Did this exact thing. Cleaned the area with some rubbing alcohol and paper towels. Cleaned and greased the tracks. Then applied the silicone to the glass and the plastic. Rolled the window up and let it cure for 24 hours. Worked like a charm. Thank you so much!

I love learning on my own and doing it myself. You sir just saved me money and gave me much knowledge. Thank you 🙏🏿🙏🏿

Great job with this and thanks for sharing your solution with the rest of the world! I really appreciate the people that go looking for a solution and when they don't find one, they make a video for the next person that goes looking.

Thank you kindly sir! You are a caring individual and I find it really refreshing that you took the time to make and share this information video, out of the consideration and kindness in your heart, which is much different than so many on KZfaq, who seek notariaty, compensation or foolish pride/fame. You just did this because you are a good, sweet, kind, human being. As much as I am disappointed in the human race today, you just made me very happy, almost to tears: Very sincerely appreciate the way you unselfishly took the time and did this kind act for others to benefit from. I wish you God's blessings and all good things.

you need a show dude! You explained everything thoroughly 🤌🏾 I’m gonna be doing this to my Mitsubishi Mirage today 💆🏽‍♂️

Thank you for making this video I've watched 10 others and it wasn't what I needed but this one was

Your video is EXCELLENT! I am a woman with no mechanical knowledge and I will fix my daughters car. Thank you. I wish you also gave sewing instructions LOL LOL. Thank you!!!!! You are an excellent teacher

This was probably the most informative video I have ever seen. I just got a truck, and the window was off track. I spent over 1 hour trying to get it back on track, finally I did. However, the window has attempted to pop back off the track again. It was raining, it was dark, so I just gave up and made sure at least the window was up. I'm absolutely going to try this silicone method. I didn't even think of this. I'll let you know if it works. Thanks so much.

I had to do this on my first car, a terrible old BMW. I learned a lot of things from that one.

Great job providing simple explanation of the system and the problem. Power windows are great when they work, but a big mystery when they don't. You provide an excellent overview and for me removed the intimidation factor.

this is literally what i’ve been looking for!!I couldn’t find a video for this, so i stopped looking 7 months ago. had to look again because i need to fix my window and this is terrific! thank you

Thankyou for making this simple! I am a 48 yr old woman and getting ready to repair this on a car belonging to my 60 yr old male roommate. He has no "repair anything" capabilities. Lol This will earn me some brownie points, and I appreciate your tutorial so much!

Very good video. Good mechanic using observation and common sense. Thank you!

happened to my window tonight, thanks to you im sure i can fix it tomorrow. appreciate all the help!

Thanks. Your video helped me get my window working again on a rainy Scottish afternoon. Keep up the good work.

Beautiful . My 95 Camry drivers' side window has been coming out of the rear upper slot for years. I just replaced a rear passenger side door handle after seeing a video of how to do that. After seeing this video of your fix, I'm going to dive into looking at my malfuntionimg window after at least 15 years. I'm betting it will be a simple fix too. Thank you for posting a very clear video and narative as to how to keep at it till the cure comes. Thanks again. 🙂

Great video! You saved me a lot of time and money with the silicone grease suggestion. Two years ago my window glass separated from the bar that raises it. I managed to fix myself but was a royal pain. When the window again started to become unbalanced I watched this video first to refresh my memory on how to fix. I had never seen the suggestion to clean and lubricate the tracks with silicone grease but I tried that first thing and it was fixed! Everything else was fine. I took the time to proactively lubricate all my other windows. Thank you!!

I wasn’t looking for a matrix, but your problem solving helps me sort what the sound was inside my door is, and why the window isn’t closing all the way. Thank you and great video man.😊

Wow 8 minutes and I have total confidence that I can fix my window. Will update after I fix it

Thank you so much for such a detailed video! My son and I were able to fix his car window doing exactly what you described.

I am so glad I found this video. Haven’t tried solution yet, but you are the only one with an explanation of what my window seems to be doing. Thank you, thank you. I am hoping this lets me fix my window. Sue

Thanks for posting this! I have a problem where it rolls up unevenly; gap on door handle side and barely closes when raising. I'm going to clean and grease the tracks. You made a good point about the concept of balance in the tracks; snags a bit on one side, causes it to go off course. Good investigative powers sir!

I haven't even taken my panel off and I can already tell this is what's happening with my 2014 Chevy Cruze, great video. Ty.

Thanx man! I was searching for this exact solution. You are amazing and thanx for making this available. Now I can fix my sons' car. Subscribed - from Durban, South Africa

This is so very helpful! You make it easy to follow and simple to understand. Thank you!

Very informative and straight to the point! Thank you for your wisdom and being considerate of my time! ❤💯

I legit had all my tools out ready too have a little project for the day until I tried what u did in the video sliding the front in first then the back and boom! It rolled up and down 😂 thanks! Saved me a lot of time.

My car window fell out of place and was able to fix it again because of this video. Thank you

I never worked on the vehicle before. I admire the comb thorough detail. Very impressive. I am very mechanically inclined to fix my window on my own..

Thank you thank you thank!!! As you say there was nothing else out there on the internet to assist me in this problem and you are the man!!!!!! If I new where your shop was I would you use you on all my repairs hands down!!!! Again thank you very much

Good job brother! You did it like a pro and helped many people. Including myself, Thank you.

thanks to the vid i finally got my 2002 intrepid passenger window to go up and down on track. ive had it up for the past 6 years

Thank you! Finally a video that explains everything so well! Thank you again!

All fixed, my bolt had come out cause of 4wdriving, really appreciate your video buddy 👍👍👍👍👍cheers from Western Australia

Really excellent. I wish I could fly him to my town. Smart analysis, great solution, clearly explained. Thank you.

Thank you very much for taking the time to make this thorough video! I hope my issue is one of the ones you described. All the best to you

Good job! Thanks for taking time to record and share your video.

I can't thank you enough for sharing your insights, this is a truly valuable video!

Silicone grease or spray is especially good routine maintenance for windows and moon roofs tracks. Really helpful video, thanks!

Mine just stopped working today. I appreciate you making this video with the problems and showing the tips for solutions

Not wanting any costly repairs, I was going to dump my daily runner, (My dogs car), because the driver window wouldn't work. It has been problem free for 12 years since I bought it as a used vehicle. This video convinced me to keep it. My dog thanks you!

Good work. Had this issue in a geo metro. But when it got cold the oil got thick and made the window go down hard again. Love your videos!

Thanks for the great video. Now I can finally fix my Ranger window if our issues are similar. ; )

Great vid! I have an older car I'm trying to not sink a bunch of money into so going to try to do this repair myself - thank you!

Very good job making your video. It's the best all around DIY video on KZfaq! Keep them coming.

My 15 Corolla glass came loose so this video, I am glad I found it first time, can guide me for sure. Never give up and constant learning is power of our brain lol if we use it. Great video!

Had ran into this problem with my GTI thank you for your insight

Thank you so much for this helpful video! Very straightforward! My opened my rear window and its completely off the track and the mounting point! This should help me tons!

Excellent video.. Straight forward , focused and to the point. Bravo...

Perfect video, and solutions… thanks for showing and explaining your process!

Amazing! This has given me the courage to troubleshoot my window after it not working for a very, very long time. I know the motor works, but the glass doesn't move. I will take a look and I think it may be a similar problem!

Thank you for being so clear and easy to understand. I’m going to try to fix my window myself.

Thank You Sir you are indeed a scholar and a gentleman, kudos to you. Someone back into my car and this led to both rear passenger windows coming off track.

The three windows in my car were detached from the arm thats held on by silicone so all i had to do was fit them back on and glue them and they work perfectly now. Thanks man!

Great detective work and advice for other DIY'ers. Thank you!

Thank you for adding this info…my Ford Explorer 1998…went off the track….awesome tip…👍

Great video. I fixed my window. Thank you. The bolt you showed just came loose... So easy.

OMG I have had this problem over and over and I will now hopefully be able to get it done right. Ty

Thanks for the tips! Looking to trouble shoot that same issue right now, so I'll be sure to keep an eye out for all of these things. Appreciate the video!

Just what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing your solution. Very smart!

Really cool video I'm having an issue with my driver's side window currently believe it came off track it was rolled down and will not go back up gonna have to keep this video as a reminder and great job explaining and much obliged for the care time and attention in your video 💕

You're the best, man! Thank you for this one. Learned a good lesson here!

Im glad i watch this before doing anything so i don't make the mistakes like you did thank you🙏

Exactly what I was hoping to find! Thank you!!!

Thanks for the video. In my case, the front clip had broken off from the glass entirely, but the bolt was still there. That did not really affect operation until the bolt at the rear fell out. When I took the lining off, and lowered the window, it jumped out of the rail/track. With a bit of effort, I was able to loosen the window and rotate the rear upwards enough to reseat the front of the glass back into the track. You will have to undo the rear bolt in order to maneuver it first though. Once both sides are in the rails or tracks, get someone to hold it and raise up the regulator to meet the bolt holes. Install both bolts and tighten. In my case, with the broken front clip, I could only tighten the rear one, so I put some sikaflex style glue stuff around the bolt, and the window.| Also, use silicon spray would be better, and probably attract less dirt. Thank you though, very informative video.

Thank you for making this video , brilliant advice and so well explained

Thank you so much man you helped me repair my window I apperciate the knowlegde you are spreading!

WOW, that was a really excellent video! Great job... thank you so much!!! Thank you also for not cluttering up your video with useless annoying music, & for getting to the point with all the info needed, but not telling us your life story... you & your video have been incredible gifts to me today! [DIY: How to repair car glass window that goes off track] [mcsmama 1.5.2023]

Absolutely great DIY FIX video!! Thank you so much!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Smart, smart, smart, no genius, I have had the exact same problem, one of my window clips actually broke off so I glued it and then it didn’t hold, so I pulled the window completely out glued it again and really waited and cured it and then carefully reinstalled the window. And at that time I think I used. WD-40 and lubed up the lift part and the gears, but not the track. And it worked for about a week, and then bang one day it fell inside the door again and was off track, so I fixed it and just stopped using it. Then the other day I purchased a replacement window figuring I needed to start from scratch. Today I am working on it, I am mid job right now, and the repair on the old window is still good, the glue has held up well. But it keeps going off track, now I know why. You sir are awesome, great job, great video, great explanation. Well done, you are a genius!!!

this is a great video mate, well done and thank you so much for this info

Thanks for the help, Water got into the window track and froze during winter and pushed the window off track. I had to drive in 5°F weather with my window down

Great video. Well detailed. THANK YOU!

Wow great video. Thanks for explaining so well what went wrong and how to fix it!

Nice job. I think I'd favor a urethane based sealant over silicone for this application. For example the black rubber sealant you'll find in the auto section of your favorite retailer.

I've got the exact same problem on my Toyota Camry. This solution fixed my problem. Much appreciated!

Phenomenal! Thanks so much for the knowledge and assist. True service to the public. 🤙🏽

You made a great video, probably the best diy video I have ever seen. My daughter's car has this exact problem, can't wait to tell her that we can fix it, thanks again for all you knowledge and help, take care and God bless!! 😊

Best video I've seen on the topic! Thank you.

Thank you for sharing! I wish you also showed us how you took the inside off before you started working !

Thank you for making this video!!! I'll have to try it tomorrow.

Extremely helpful and very well made. Thank you!

Thank you! I’m going to try it with my son’s car window. It’s exactly the same…goes up fine slowly but gets off track if you close it too quickly.

you're The best. Quick,short and clear easy understand. really like it. The most of video talk to much.

Thanks for making this video bro! Super helpful! 😊

Thanks so much for this video, it was exactly the problem with our car and I was able to go straight to the issue and fix it myself.

Great video, you have a gift for teaching!

Thank you very much for posting this!

I appreciate the video, helped me out with my tracker

GREETINGS! Another fine video! Keep em coming. P.S. I use Shoe Goo instead of silicone. It makes a stronger bond.

Cheers mate. Used your technique. Working fine now 👍
