What are the signs of a failing power window motor in Honda City?

Before a power window completely stops working, does it show any warning signs such as slow movement, unusual noises, o r intermittent functionality? How can Honda City owners detect motor failure early?

Before a power window motor completely fails, there are several warning signs that Honda City owners can look out for. One of the most common symptoms is slow window movement. If you notice that the window is taking longer than usual to go up o r down, the motor may be weakening. Another sign is unusual noises such as grinding, clicking, o r whirring sounds, which indicate that the motors internal components are struggling to operate smoothly. Additionally, intermittent functionality—where the window works intermittently, o r sometimes fails to respond when you press the button—can be a sign of a failing motor. If any of these symptoms are noticed, its best to have the motor checked to prevent complete failure.
