: the contact stated while attempting to open the drivers side window, it came off the tract. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection. The dealer maneuvered the window back into the tract, however it was determined the problem would reoccur due to the type of materials the tract was made of. The manufacturer has not been alerted.

Rear windshield lifts off at right rear pillar when the air of closing the driver or passenger door pushes it out of the frame. Two days later at the service appointment, the rear windshield had lifted off the entire roof line, with a height of 2 inches at the right rear pillar. Honda service dept. Said they'd never seen anything like it; the caulking had not been sufficient to keep the windshield in place. They reglued it. An acquaintance in NJ saw the same thing happen to the 2006 Honda coupe in front of him. He changed lanes fast.
