Driver side window rattles and banging sound?

killuchen · 05-03-2018, 07:27 AM

Hey all. I have a 2017 Z with about 18k miles on it. I've noticed that my driver side window/door rattles from time to time. I tried listening on the passenger side but no rattle.

Also, sometimes when I roll down my driver side window I'll hear a loud bang almost like something hitting my window/door. I can't produce the same sound every time I roll my window down it just happens at random.

Do you think the dealership will fix this issue for free or will I have to out of pocket it?

If it still has a warranty, i dont see why it wouldnt be covered.

Warranty should cover it.

Sounds like a problem I had with mine. According to dealership, it was something to do with the window regulator.

Was it an easy fix?

I agree with everyone, it should covered by the warranty.
either easy or not, I would take to the dealer. let them deal with it.
Just took mine for battery replacement one of the cell is dying. had my for 2 and half years.

Your warranty should cover the cost of parts and labor you may have to pay a very small deductible as I did. It is probably your window regulator/s that needs to be replaced. I had to replace my window regulators on both sides on my last Z don’t feel bad. Going to the Nissan dealership service department for warranty work I seen it as a chance to get some required maintenance done.

I don't know what they did. All I cared about was it didn't rattle when I picked it up.

Unless they had a 370Z window regulator in stock (I doubt it), it was just an adjustment of some sort.

Thanks for the advice guys! I'm going to have it checked out on my next oil change.
