Is my window covered under warranty?

So a couple of weeks ago I rolled the passengers side window down and it made a clicking/popping sound. I rolled it up and was fine days later same thing happened. This morning rolled it down nothing then rolled it up and popped again. So is it covered under warranty or is it something I will most likely have to pay? or just open the door and fix myself?

That king of issue is suppose to be covered under warranty, unless it is your fault.

Well, you never know for sure until you ask the dealer, but I would say it's probably covered. I just bought my (used) Vibe on Saturday with an extended warranty, and as the guy explained it to me, anything electrical or mechanical that goes wrong with the car besides "wear & tear" items (most notably and annoyingly including the exhaust) is covered under your warranty. Most anything that could be caused by your own use, like cosmetic things, is not covered. If your window is hitting something in the door, that ought to be NOT your fault, unless you've put in aftermarket speakers. Then it might be a little more complicated. At any rate, you should of course just ask the dealer if it's covered.

I dont have after market speakers in the doors and havent used a slim jim so I should be fine. They gave me an appointment till Monday cause some guy is on vacations and wont be back till then

that happened to me and they wouldn't cover it. they said it was just some loose screws, which they say isn't wear and tear. (removed) ever.they also didn't cover the ever popular heat shield that rattled. (removed) nuggets

Well took my Vibe to the dealer this morning at 11am and picked it up till 5pm. According to the receipt I received it says they removed the door panel and found the window regulator to be out of adjustment. They removed the window regulator and adjusted it to factor specs. It was all covered under warranty so no money from my pocket this time.
