The manufacturer has issued service bulletins covering visibility on this vehicle — documented repair instructions, service campaigns, or warranty extensions sent to dealers. A TSB isn't a recall (it's not a free safety remedy), but it's the manufacturer acknowledging the issue and how to fix it.
Service bulletin - When activating the sliding door power window auto-up feature, the window rolls up halfway and then rolls back down. There could be a pinch detection software compatibility issue between the power window regulator control unit and the rear window switch.
full bulletin at NHTSA ↗Tech Line Summary Article - Customers are reporting the windows roll up partially but stop and roll back down when attempting to close the sliding door windows using the Auto-Up feature. An investigation of the complaint has identified a software compatibility issue between the window switch and window regulator. We are currently working on a fix, but there is currently no recommended repair. Until a repair is made available, advise the customer to close the window using manual operation by lightly pulling up on the switch until the desired position is reached. Also, they should avoid pulling up firmly on the switch to prevent activating automatic operation and the Auto-Up feature.
