    in my experience, electric motors don't get "weak". They work or they don't.

    It's possible you have an electrical fault preventing the motor from getting proper voltage - perhaps a corroded connector or ground.

    In non-toyota vehicles I have experienced poor window performance when debris or corrosion pinched the weather stripping and caused excessive load on the motors too - so perhaps start with a thorough clean and lube of the seals on both the glass side and the body side.

    Good luck!

    Function before sparkle.
    I'm with @DIYDad - start by checking the tracks and ensuring everything is lubed up.

    Start with a few of these videos:
