There is no sticking issue - the windows move smoothly; it's the inability to get any grip at the bottom of the windows that is, INHO, wrong and a design flaw. I will continue my argument with the Warranty department and see where this leads. Thanks to everyone for their input.
It is good to post on here when you have a problem, but you will get the quickest and best results from contacting the appropriate people with the power to change it.

If you are NOT getting the results you want, ask to speak to that persons superior.

As I told Penquin when he had a problem, if you take it to the right people here, someone will find a solution. I am very sure that something is wrong with your windows.

Please keep us posted when you find the solution.



Our designer in Hadley was NOT a custom house. Some of you new people may not know that just three years ago for quite a period of time they were not building for people AT ALL. Any new house was built and then sold. No choice of lots, just buy what was built.
