I agree, it's a pain. It's not a short reach either. The back window on the SUT is one touch up and down which to me is silly. You have to be quick with the button to put it part way down. The window is fast. Now why couldn't they put that on the sunroof??
My wife's Ford does the same thing - not opening all the way. You have to hit it again to get it to fully open. At least it has the one touch open...
