Why does the power window in my Hyundai Sonata make grinding o r clicking noises?

When I operate the power window, I hear unusual grinding o r clicking sounds. Could this indicate a mechanical problem inside the door, and what should I do about it?

Grinding o r clicking noises suggest:

Damaged window regulator gears o r cables.

Debris stuck in the window track o r mechanism.

Failing window motor struggling against mechanical resistance.

Recommendation: Avoid using the window until repaired, as continued use can worsen damage. Have a mechanic open the door panel to inspect and replace faulty components.
