Default Drivers window not closing after car shut off

I have to climb in the passenger side, push accessory button and close the window. Anyone else have this issue? If so, what is the fix?

Maybe you need to re index your windows. Check the drivers manual for procedure. (can't recall what it is)

Close the car door. Raise the window and hold the up switch an extra 3 seconds. Release. Without lowering the window, hold the up switch again for 3 seconds. Release. Done.

This is called resetting of the window indexing or power window initialize and is in the owner's manual. See page 2-17 of the 2005 owner’s manual, page 2-18 of the 2006 owner’s manual, page 87 of the 2007 owner’s manual, page 2-18 of the 2008 owner’s manual, or page 2-18 of the 2009 owner's manual.

And the window should go up when you close the door, not when you shut the engine off, if it's working properly.

That's the ticket!
