Your window motors are going out. The reason they stop is because they when you roll them up they get hot. They work again once they cool back down. Eventually they will quit working all together.

Silly Tuner, Gm wants to fix it.

All i can say is of all the things that never got fixed through from LT1-LS1-end of production, that has to be the dumbest of all. I think the engineers should get slugged in the ***** with 4-iron.

I mean come on, no way they didnt see them going out early on these cars.

It was all about money. And getting you to take your car in.
