Was able to push d/s rear window seal back into place. Seal is damaged and needs to be replaced. Installed new weatherstripping. Window is going up to far and not stopping at proper position, causing seal to push out of place. Recommend replacing window motor. DL spoke w/customer 11/5 @ 1028am- customer declined window motor/carrier replacement at this time.
Spark plugs were replaced at last visit in January, vehicle had 129k miles. Test drove vehicle approximately 6/7 miles. Can feel delayed shift intermittently. Vehicle accelerates, brakes and handles well otherwise. Passenger side reverse light is not working. No pending or current codes.
