Window Tint Issues?

Hello,

For those of you with front window tint, have you had any issues with scratches from rolling the windows up and down? I had an issue with my window when I had it originally tinted, and the window got stuck down. Acura ended up replacing the power window motor. I am now again having issues with the window rolling up very slowly. I also noticed a couple of vertical scratches in my tint. My passenger side window has been fine, but I am not sure what is going on with the driver's side door.

I am assuming Acura will replace the window motor AGAIN, but I don't understand why my tint is being scratched. Has anyone else had issues like this?

Frustrating! Off to the dealership tomorrow!

Never had a motor issue nor window tint getting scratched. For the latter, there may be something in the felt seal that is scratching the tint. You can roll down the window all the way, clean the flat window rail (inside where the tint touches the felt window weather strip) and all should be good.

Id say it's probably not properly set on the window track.
