window stuck halfway · window frozen in position
A single window becomes stuck in one position, neither responding to the switch nor moving manually.
Listen closely when pressing the switch - a motor sound with no glass movement points to a broken regulator; silence points to a motor or fuse issue.
Safe to drive, but if stuck open, cover it to protect against weather and address it soon for security.
