Welcome to YT.

This is a common problem with rear windows. Regulator/motor assembly worn out.

Used one run you $100 or so.

just as our's was.
EBAY, about $30 fom someone parting out.
PITA to do, be careful with the window when undoing the mechanism, it's a delicate operation.
Interesting side note...........beware of license plate bolts..........too long and they will impede in on the window........was able to catch this right after got the window operating again and trimmed the screws down, standard license plate screws way too long.

Unless there is something wrong with the regulator , I would save the cash and not get one. Take the window out ,clean the channels that the arms run on and clean the wheels on the arms. Check the teeth on the regulator and if you aren't missing any, I wouldn't replace it. Be careful removing the motor, the spring is loaded under alot of tension and it will retract violently when you get the motor loosened up enough (almost lost some fingers). Other than that, it's fairly straight-forward, but tedious.
