Window Defect? Check your windows, Does this happen to you?
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/23533/window.jpg"></center><p>While I was driving today, I noticed the felty/plastic that is on the outside of the window gets sucked in sometimes, and sometimes dosen't. Does anyone have this same problem? Give it a try, close and open the window a few times, see if it happens.

lube it
I forget with what though. Maybe spray a rag with silicone spray and rub the squeegee (the name of that rubber thing) down. If you use some Rain-X on the window it will help also.

Try Wurth's Rubber Care Gel Stick -

It works very well keeping rubber soft and pliable (and prevents freezing). It's simple and fast to apply since it has a foam applicator top. The 75ml size bottle goes a long way -
It's sold by "www.carcareonline.com" among other vendors.<ul><li><a href="http://www.carcareonline.com/wurth_rub_care_gel_11316.html">Wurth's Rubber Care Gel Stick</a></li></ul>

I use RainX window cleaner and it has illiminated the problem and the squeaking---
when raising or lowering the window. Also eliminates any noise from the wiper blades draging on the glass in light rain.

I disagree.....
RainX may be great in areas where it doesn't freeze, but when I applied it to windows on the vehicles that were outdoors overnight, whenever there was frost/sleet/freezing rain, the ice accumulation was much worse than I had ever experienced.
