Default Rear Door Window Moves

I was washing may car today and went to wipe the window on the rear door and the window moved. It moves side to side at least 3/4 of an inch to a 1/2 inch. It also moves up and down some. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem. If so is a quick fix or should i take it to the dealer? I have to get my free oil change soon so i figured I would have them look at it then.

Ps This is the big window.

Take it back to the dealer. Don't think there any danger of it falling out, assuming the rubber molding is in place. But it shouldn't move around that much.

Defenitly take it in!
I dont think it will fall out either.
But it may definatly may be causing a water leak.
Do you hear any wind noises when cruising down the road?

Well of corse when i get to the dealer to show them it won't budge. I guess maybe it was down just a tad or something. I'll just watch it and see if it falls out going to the interstate.

Humm, you mentioned in your first post that you noticed that it moved when you were washing your box. So wet your back window and see if it moves. Also if you attach a suction cup to the window, that would help you grab it. Perhaps it's just a matter of them reapplying the gasket adhesive.

This loose window you talk about, is it the roll down window or the smaller piece mounted in the door frame?

That smaller one seems to be loose on mine also.
