Those plastic tracks are a piece of sh%&$t and erode quickly. Why couldn't they put a decent pully? That's what my window specialist welded instead of them when they failed, giving me a much longer life now. Also, there's a small plastic rivet holding the frame that breaks easily and then they tell you the motor is dead (while actually the steel cable has sprung free and tangled inside the pully and blocking the motor). A costly diagnosis mistake. I fixed it myself and saved $200...
