Probably a faulty top up/down switch on dash or a faulty trunk partition switch.
But first I would try just re-indexing the windows.
1. Close the door.
2. Raise both windows by pulling up the on the window switch.
3. After the windows full closes, hold the up switch in the up position for three seconds and then release the switch.
4. Hold the window switch in the up position AGAIN for three seconds and release.
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, page 2-18 of the 2009 owner’s manual, page 3-18 of the 2010 owner’s manual, or 2-18 of the 2011 owner’s manual.
Good Luck
