Window Switch/Toggle Broke in half.......

[ka-chow]

Welp. I went to roll my window back up today and (no unusual pressure) and the button snapped in half (I believe it's just the cover piece and the little silver tip). I'm thinking the heat (it's a hot day) might have something to do with it? Anyone know if this is an easy fix or have any tips on fixing it? Thanks so much!

Only true way to fix it is replacement. You can try super glue or hot glue. It just snaps into the door panel, fairly easy job.

Thanks for the link! Does anyone know if I have to take the door panel off to replace this? 30 bucks ain't bad!

No, the door panel does not need to come off.

Scott,

if you are still within the 3 yr 36k miles warrantee period the dealer should replace it for free. My local dealer mobile service does these types of repairs at my home.

Yes, sorry. I thought I could just replace the individual broken one. : /

$70+...

Ah, yes I am and didn’t think of this! Did you just arrange this in the app?

Thanks for the tip!

I called dealer and asked if they could do mobile service.

Call your dealer and email a picture of the broken switch. See if they will do mobile service.

My dealer came out and diagnosed phone not recognized on driver side. They identified the antenna in the door handle had failed They ordered the handle and installed it in my driveway a week later after they had it painted.

Thanks for the info and I will give that a try! Have a good weekend!
