Make sure something isn't stuck in the shade.... let it go down and examine it, and then have someone put it back up and see if you can determine if there is a blockage... I had a window tint tool stuck in mine that caused me an issue.... found it and resolved.

Did you drive with the shade up and the window down??? If so there could be a fold in the shade
