Before I order a new rear window I was wondering if any of you alls had any suggestions perhaps to a relatively new issue. The rear window on the driver side comes out the track pretty regularly nowadays and especially when on the highway. I usually crack the window to release pressure so it doesn't look like a balloon in the rear or some craziness.

I feel it stems from earlier in the summer when I was driving around in what I call the safari mode and had just laid the windows jn the back seat and I saw it bent from the angle it slid to. I included some pics for your viewing pleasure ? the last is a comparison to the passenger side which looks way more snug and has zero problems. I did try to close the gap a bit more since that's where it seems to start loosening itself from. I wasn't going to bother with warranty claims and what not since it didn't come with it to begin with and think it'd be a good idea to get a passenger side one also while I'm at it?

Mine look similar, but never had them blow out. Make sure the velcro is good and tight on the top front corners. Also if the top is still really tight you can unclamp the front put the windows in and see if it pulls less on the groove. My back window did that when new and unclamping worked great. 5 year's on my top and it is no longer an issue of too tight.

Ok so like clamp it down after getting the side windows in place
