John,
Your wife probably didn't pull all the way up on the button (or push down all the way), as when you lift it "catches" a little before going into the auto-up feature, same on the way down (especialy if it hasn't been used much)

I'm now completely baffled. Both of my JDM 1992 models clearly have 'Auto' marked on the driver's window. Yet neither of them work. In fact, I can't even feel what I would call a second indent to the switch which suggested that it might have worked at some time. You pull the switch up and the window goes up, but there's no suggestion that you can pull it further!

I forgot I had auto up and down because I never use it, and nearly chopped my arm off yesterday
Take your switch apart and look at it. Maybe there's a bad or loose contact.

I had an unexpected auto down the other day in mine. Stupid cable broke.

Auto up and down is indeed there, and it's simpler then all of you are making it out to be.
On my 92 I never could get it to work and one day I was poking around with the switch cluster taken apart. Using a screwdriver in the switch'es little slot, I found that auto up AND down do indeed exist, but the switch has a limited range of motion incapable of activating it. My solution: Increase the range of motion! I took a file to both sides of the rocker switch and removed large ammounts of plastic. Then it worked like a dream. Not sure if it's only for 92s or all of them. Then my car got destroyed and I sold the switches to soobiesvx93 and I have yet to do this mod to my new car. You should PM him and find out if he's still happy with it.

I have a 92 and my switch broke right off. I had auto up and down. I bought a switch from a 94 and no auto up or down. I put the two side by side and the 94 has tabs that limit the range of motion. So naturally I filed off the tabs and still no auto up or down. I ended up using the switches from the 94 and the mechanicals from the 94, now I have auto up & down.
