Automatic windows

my passenger side window sometimes doesn't work. in order for it to work i have to hit my door. happens more when its cold out. SHOULD I WORRY ABOUT IT, OR JUST DEAL WITH IT?

Your issue is not uncommon - the motor brushes get dirty. You can:
1) hit it when it doesn't work
2) R&R the motor and clean out the brushes
3) replace the motor

The choice is yours.
