I've had something like this happen a couple of times.
The cure in both instances (and probably will be in yours) is the 'recalibration' of the window lift system.
It IS in the user handbook, but here is the procedure anyway.
1 Ensure the tail door is closed, the vehicle unlocked and the alarm disarmed.
2 On 3 door models, ensure the roof is on (hard back) or lowered and secured (soft back).
3 With the ignition on, use the console switch, or the vehicle key in the tail door lock, to raise the window until the
motor stalls with the window fully closed.
(the holding the switch on until the motor 'stalls' is the key thing - you MUST allow the motor to stall)
4 Switch off the ignition.
If the calibration procedure is unsuccessful, the CCU will sound a warning for approximately 0.8 second and fully lower
the window.
Tail door window calibration can fail for the following reasons:
l Window stops before minimum travel is achieved.
l Window does not achieve a stall.
l Window request removed before stall is achieved.
l Tail door opened while driving window up.

you have to unlock the door with the remote and then pull the handle and the window will lower about an inch and then the door will open
SOURCE: starter
Starter solenoid? If you replaced the starter but not the solenoid, the solenoid could working the the contacts inside are corroded/burnt and will not put power to the starter. Either that or the starter has a dead spot in it. Just because the part is new/rebuilt doesn't mean its perfect. Please rate my answer so I am awarded points for it.
