my passenger side is having the issue. ima gett it fixed this weekend ( i think it jus needs cleaning) but wat ive been doing is banging the door handle part inside the car cus thats a solid piece while holding the window button up and eventually itll go up. ive started using a water bottle (with water inside lol) seems to work better and safer. usually hitting it towards the top or bottom of the handle seems to work. hasnt failed me yet lol

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING THAT'S BEEN MENTIONED
Sorry, needed to get your attention before you waste your money. Take a few things into consideration. I've had this car for 3 years now and I've had more window motor problems than I can count. I would HIGHLY recommend buying one on-line or from autozone (should be $200 or more from autozone but there's a $40 core charge you get back). Anything at all is better than going to the stealership.
Another option (for now) is to pull the window up manually and leave it. Unless you really need to put it down. I left mine like that for a while cause I didn't have the money. If it won't come up just hold the window button up with the door open and slam it shut...the window should pop right up because your regulator is still fine.
Lastly whatever you do, don't pay someone to do this for you. Look up a DIY on it and do it yourself. Shouldn't take over an hour. It's simple, especially if you do it several times like me
Good luck.

this is true for the most part.
BUT if ou have alocal auto electric rebuilder near you.. see what they can do. I had mine replaced with arebuilt motor for $140 including the 15 minutes of labor.

yesterday i tried the whole punching the door and slamming trick with no luck except the guys at my station thinking im crazy or just really pissed off lol
when i dropped my G off at the dealership today, and the service guy was telling me that since i have tint(20%) that it puts extra stress on the window motor and "technically" would void my warranty. Then he said but here we don't count tint as voiding the warranty.
uhhhh i called bs on that
but for the mean time today they loaned me a g37 sedan

^yup no lie!!!
I just was kind of blown away by that and too speechless for words to try and argue, and then he was saying "but at this dealership, we dont void the warranty for tint" like he was doing me a grand favor or something.
I just said, "ok" cuz in my head i knew as soon as im done talking to this guy, the sooner they will work on my car.
