    Yes. My 2012 did the same. It was the switch. RockAuto, about $30. Switch is easily swapped out. You can do it!

    DIY 6.2 Spark Plug Change

    Thanks everyone for your comments. CoronaRaptor, went with your suggestions for my '12 with 122,000 miles. I found a very big price difference for the Motorcraft coils between Napa, Autozone, O'Reilly, CarParts.com, Amazon, and RockAuto. I saved almost $200 going with RockAuto (wires, coils...

    First time truck owner From Prius to 2020 Raptor

    Welcome, Briggs! You'll find the Raptor will be a reliable, good looking fast lane occupant. Thanks for getting out of the fast lane in your Prius. Now you'll be saying what Raptor owners say when rolling up on a Prius-led traffic jam: "Damn, I got Prius-ed!".

    GEN 1 Dealership transmission flush

    99,000 miles; decided to follow all the advice and change my own tranny oil. Bought the Dorman pan. Overall, job went flawlessly, just like the videos. Lessons learned: should have went to Home Depot or Lowe's and purchased the cement/mortar tub that one reader suggested for a drain pan...

    2012 sliding rear window won't close

    Update: took your advise, and started with the cheap fix. I got on Rock Auto, found the switch (moonroof switch actually has 3 switches including the rear window), ordered for ~$25.00, installed it upon arrival and.....it worked! Window, and case, closed! Thanks, guys!

    2012 sliding rear window won't close

    Thanks. I tried pushing while switch was pulled, no luck. Guess I'll order the new switch from Rock Auto. BTW, just had the transmission recall done, remapped okay. Mine is a 2012, and they parked it next to a brand new Raptor. Couldn't help but notice the sticker price here in...

    2012 sliding rear window won't close

    Help! My rear sliding window has occasionally stuck open, but after toggleing the switch a few times it has closed. Now, it won't. The interior lights dim when I hold the switch, but no movement of the glass. I checked fuse (46 I think), doesn'r appear blown. Any suggestions?
