Window might be off track slightly. Youll have to pull your door panel and inspect.

its fairly easy. Pop off your window/mirror control with a flat head. Pop off door handle ring. And get in one of the corners with a flat head and start prying softly to find the tappers. Get close to those and pry untill each one comes out and the panel will come off. It should take about 30 minutes if you take your time. Putting it back on should take less than 10.

Well, if its off track. take it out and smash it against the ground. It might take a good slamming.

my passenger side window had the same problem...took it back to the dealership and they fixed it but then it came back about a week later...the door also has a little rattle in it also. with my luck the door will fall off soon too.
