Window gets stuck at bottom

I rolled my window all the way down yesterday and it got stuck (luckily I missed the rain). When I got back to the house I took the door panel off and pushed up on the window at the bottom and pulled the window trigger (that's right, i just called it that) at the same time and the window rolled right back up.

A little confused, I rolled with window back down and STUCK. AGAIN! So I gave it a little push and it came back up!

So for now I can roll the window down as long as I have just a little bit poking out the door and it'll come back up. But if I have it all the way down it'll be stuck.

I looked and there doesn't seem to be any kind of debris. Any ideas what could be causing this?

You need a new regulator or a window clip which is what connects the regulator to the glass may have broken. Its a cheap plastic part.

both drivers and passengers windows get stuck on mine. there is a little plastic guide that is at the bottom of the window groove that breaks away and the window goes down out of the groove and gets stuck under it. i just push it back in place with a little screwdriver as I bring the window up and it all is good. try not to take the window all the way down and see if it works normally.

Be sure that the clips are included with the regulator. If not be sure and order some as they are surely broken.
