I just got my wife's 07 CRV tinted on friday. Shop said dont roll down the windows after 3 days. I rolled it down the first time today and found all sorts of problems.

1. Noise when rolling up and down
2. Window seems to be hitting then clicking on something when going up
3. All windows looks like its struggling to go up

Any idea what happened?

 

?

Most likely the shop that did the tint job pushed down the rubber gasket on the inside of the window and it is stuck down. If that is the case, you will need to pry the window gasket back up to the normal position. (This is usually easier with the window down.) The tint shop may have also taken the door panel off and did not re-install it correctly. You (or the tint shop) may need to take the door panel back off and re-install correctly. I would not operate the window until it is corrected or it may burn up the window motor.
Should be an easy fix. Good luck.

 

well just so you know this is straight from honda.
Any damage caused by aftermarket window tinting isn’t American Honda’s responsibility, so it’s not a
warranty repair. Window tinting shops should consult with their suppliers for available special tools and
application methods that can help them do the job properly without risk of damage.
