Rear Windows always seem to be down a bit

Text got cut off. Model Y Juniper. A month old. Photo shows a thick piece of paper folded and easily sliding in between glass and trim.

Do you hear a whistle or anything when you drive? I would just schedule a service ticket and take it in and let them look at it

There is a quick and simple process to reset it. It’s in the owners manual but if I recall off hand: - Close door, hold window button down for about 10 seconds, then up for about 10 seconds. I believe this resets it to how it should be.

Is it freezing at your place? Because if so, they will automatically lower a little bit.

Or you might be able to swing by the service center as I think it’s a quick fix they could probably do for you.

Did you try to recalibrate it?

If it’s cold outside they do this, if not google how to re calibrate windows, if they doesn’t work raise a ticket

Yes it is. Ok this is really helpful to know. Why do they go down when it is freezing?

Wondering if I should do this or not, as some people are saying it is a feature when it is freezing outside rather than a bug?

Why do they do this when it is cold? I didn’t realize until I saw these comments that it can be recalibrated but I am wondering if I should given that it is cold out. I am not clear on what the connection between temperature and window height is.

A common thing with frameless windows is they get stuck and can break the glass when Opening… Tesla nicely baked into software they don’t fully engage into the slot at the top helping stop the window getting frozen and the door then jamming. My mini r53 was terrible for the door / window getting stuck when Cold outside

I believe it's to make sure you can open the door without breaking the window glass. Since it's a frameless design the thought is that if it's completely raised the glass could freeze to the car frame and when you go to open the door you could either damage the glass or trim.

because if the window freezes and the motor is unable to move it, you won't be able to open the door without tearing the trim off.

If they freeze stuck, they will clear the molding while opening the door. In warmer weather they will rest higher.

They go down when it’s freezing, so you can open your door without the entire window breaking if it is frozen shut.

Have you tried buying it flowers?

Note In cold temperatures, the windows stop slightly below the vehicle trim when fully raised to prevent freezing and make it easier to open the doors.

I'll be honest, I didn't know about the windows self-adjusting during freezing temps, but it appears that's what it could be based on this note from Tesla: Note In cold temperatures, the windows stop slightly below the vehicle trim when fully raised to prevent freezing and make it easier to open the doors. I'd think one option you may be able to try, is to adjust the interior climate from the Tesla app to warm it up in the car to hopefully avoid any freezing issues that could occur.

I recently noticed this and then after a few days it warmed up a little and they returned to closing normally. So it’s just the car functioning correctly.

In cold climate, Teslas leaving a bit space to prevent freezing up in place but they should shut tight when you switch to D. You cannot miss their sound. If this is not the case, hit to Service mode and recalibrate, it should be an easy fix.

😂

Is it cold where you live? I’ve noticed the windows will lower a little bit to avoid the glass freezing to the seal.

Or shattering the window.

laminated glass doesn't shatter

Tesla windows can most definitely shatter. lol

Noticed this as well, but I never knew about Tesla doing this automatically in freezing temps, at least I have an explanation now
