Default Window problems...

My drivers window is continually falling out of the metal track that it is supposed to run in, and it is getting to be a pain to remove to door panel every time to fix it. Does anyone know why this is happening, or have any advice to fix it besides just putting it back together?

Also, I just got my windows tinted a week ago, is there much of a chance that this will ruin the tint?

I always use some silcone spray on the window tracks to avoid this problem.

Gorilla Snot, use it in the track to keep the window in... it works wonders! I think most hardware stores carry it... (no that's not a typo)

i have the same problem but i fixed it for now, excpet now it will close and fall abit. also about the tint make sure u put a cloth on the metal were u attach the top side panel to( when ur testing it out) because if u try to roll the window down it might rub on the corner of the metal and scratch the tint( happend to me)
