Default Power Window Issue

I have a 2017 GS Convertible. Both windows go up and down OK, but I can not get them to stop while they are going up or down. I have read the book and tried different things with no luck?????????????????????

maybe someone in the C7 section has had this problem. I would think a pull in the opposit direction would stop your window

I found this in a 2018 manual on line ;

Window Express Movement All windows can be opened without holding the window switch. Press the switch down fully and quickly release to express open the window. If equipped, pull the window switch up fully and quickly release to express close the window. Briefly press or pull the window switch in the same direction to stop that window’s express movement.

Mine will stop the window travel by just briefly tapping the applicable window switch.
