    I have posted messages here before about my problems with squeaks from
    the window seals. Saturn has replaced the seals on all 4 doors and
    after a few thousand miles the squeak returns on the driver door. A
    few thousand miles later the front passenger door and now the rear
    doors.

    The only time this irritating noise goes away is when it is below
    freezing outside - not an everyday occurrence in the Seattle area.
    Saturn tells me that all the VUEs start to have this problem at 20,000
    miles and that the noise is not a defect.

    I want to ask one more time before I use the this state's lemon law -
    am I the only one with this problem or is every other owner of a VUE
    just dealing with it?

    Have you tried either "Rain-X" or maybe "Glass Wax?" There are some
    anti-fog sprays that may work if they have a silicon or glycerin in them.

    Actually, I have the opposite problem. Mine don't squeegee enough on
    raising them and lowering them due to humidity to effectively wipe them
    clean. The fogging up is more serious to me than squeaks as it happens so
    fast (always about miles from garage) taht I need to carry a terry cloth
    towel to wipe them while driving. Plus, my old car was so loose the wind
    would howl into the door jam. I'll take a squeak over any of the above.
    Least I know it's tight.

    Just a thought.
