   I'm not sure I have a modern car.  It's a 2005.

   There you go.  Actually, I think my windows will go up or down for maybe   
   30 seconds after the key is out of the ignition.  Hadn't thought about   
   it, but it might be the same time until the headlights go off.   
      
   So the computer is making them work longer.

   Yes, if the ignition is still on, I'm sure you have 2 or 3 times as   
   long.   
      
   Are people saying that the sideways pressure of the water forces the   
   window against its channel and that's why it won't go down?
