Default windows squeak

I have an 02 gt and my windows squeak like a dying cat. Has anyone else had this problem?

try cleaning them real well and use rainx. Also, with the windows fully open, try to use a soft cloth and clean the rubber seal where the window comes up out of. My windows have sqeaked occasionally, and it always happens after it's been rainy or cold and I've rolled them down to try and clear fog or something off. After that they sqeaked til I cleaned em.

I had that problem, it gets REALLY ANNOYING but then it goes away eventually. I wouldnt worry about it too much but I guess rainx would work

try cleaning the rubber stripping at the base of the window and lemme know if it works for you. I use a rag and it comes out all black with gunk but the windows stop squealing

Well i went to the ford dealership today to get a new cup holder insert (threw mine out the widow attached to a gatoraide bottle)and i was talking to the guy about my windows and he told me that some have a factory recall on rubber seals by the tweeters so they put these felt strips in and now my windows dont make a sound
