2015 Acura RDX Window Issue??

I recently got a new 2015 Acura RDX FWD. I absolutely love it but this one thing has been bothering me. I've noticed that when my windows are down around 25%, and i shut the door, they rattle. Is this normal? Im in the dealership right now and i spoke to two different service reps and they said its normal.

I was told that was normal on my '13...quite a disappointment after so many Volvos . Our no-frame windows on the C70 convertible are tighter! The RDX windows really need to be all the way up or down to sound secure when closing the door. Sorry.

Same issue. When you close the door you feel like window could fall off. Weird thing is it just happens to driver's door only. Not the other 3 doors.

Yeah, not liking it too much but it is what it is i guess. Mine is the same mostly in both of the front doors and a little less on the rear ones. Thanks for your feedback.

This is a fairly common thing with Honda/Acura's I've noticed. I tint a lot of windows, so see a lot of cars and have notice that problem before.

Another reason I dumped mine... This car is not a luxury car, only in name or the badge.

1. Rear thumping that sounds like a 10 yr old rear suspension over bumps.
2. Bad air sound, like a bad seal near the windshield, which was some plastic under the hood that I fixed myself, since multiple dealers couldn't.
3. Cheap grey paint trim on the interior that easily scratches
4. Even a Ford Escape SUV has more tech options than an Acura, LOL!
5. Vibration cylinder management, if you like vibrations at constant highway speed, I maybe more sensitive to it... until Honda gets that right... I prefer all 6 cylinders to run.
6. cheap window rattling from time to time.
7. After 1yr of driving, it felt like I was driving a 6 year old Domestic car with 60k miles...
It's a rebadged CRV.. I think the CRV has better quality, LOL!
