Has anyone had problems with failure of the one-touch close mechanism?

Yes, quite a few. It’s usually due to the window having forgotten its end position. To restore it, close the window by fully lifting the close button. When the window is completely closed briefly pull up the switch fully and release. Open the window completely once by pressing the switch.

The stored end position can be lost sometimes due to a low battery. Same is true for the pano roof closed position.

Thanks, our front passenger window closes but then unprompted opens itself about 3 inches. It seems to hit itself at the top of the close position and then releases the 3 inches. It acts as if it has hit a trapped object or something but it is just hitting the top seal of the window.

Will try the above. Ours seemed to go wrong on a frosty morning when the window was frozen shut but my daughter tried to open it

Frozen seals can cause this issue. Hopefully the reset will fix it. You might need to repeat it a couple of times and then exercise the window a few times over its full travel.
