Default Loud "Whirring" Noise from Passenger Side Power Window

I activated the passenger side window today for the first time and noted a louder than normal "whir" coming from the motor/gearbox.

The driver's side is virtually silent/like any other modern power window.

Some of the power windows I heard back in the seventies sounded a little like this passenger's side window.

I don't know if the dealer will screw up more than they fix, so...

Anyone else's windows louder than they might have expected?

Could be the power window motor going out.

On a brand new car...

That's what I think it is, too...

I'm just afraid the dealer will mess up the door (and maybe the car) when they "fix" it...
