Question does anyone else have this problem?

on BOTH driver and passenger side windows, i have a vertical "scratch" from top to bottom. its not actually a scratch but you can definitely tell that something is rubbing against the windows from within the doors itself. does anyone have this problem and what causes it?

I had waranty before they gave me new windows too... now its all scratched up again... (pissd).... so i guess this Monday i got to go in and give them the old one two punch..... mayb a following right uppercut to finish the move.... i hope i can get it through there head this time.... its wasting to much time (buzy schedule)...... I even talkd to the Owner of Acura once.... the workers have No idea what the hell is wrong with it.... we need a demand on these dam windows..... we need to really annoy them about this situation so they might just say what the hell....mayb a recall..? hahaa..

a lot of my friends actually like the fact that there's no frame around the windows on the doors.

Yeah,

I got that too.

getting deeper with time - was a wear now actual scratches in glass at an angle.

The window is scaping along something when it goes down.

Can you give me some info on the recall?

Want to stuff it in service manager's mouth because they should have taken care of it before rather than wait and hope you say nothing till your warranty runs out.

It won't affect the tint becuase the scratches are on the outside but when you have tint the scratches stand out alot more.
