Window will go down completely, but will only come up about 6 in. It appears the motor is working, and the switch is working.

Hello,

It sounds like a faulty window regulator.
The regulator is what attaches the motor to the glass and a faulty one many times will not allow the window to roll up or it will do it very slowly.

On this vehicle the window motor and regulator come as a single unit.

I have attached the replacement steps below.

Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
