Exclamation Window Issues...Can Keyless Entry Open Windows?

This might be a silly question but I swear I've looked everywhere for the answer and as of yet haven't been able to find one. I've had my windows roll down automatically about three times now. Each time I've noticed this I've been transferring belongings into the trunk and back seat. I cannot pinpoint the exact time they roll down for I've never actually witnessed them go down. I do know that two out of the three times they were up 5 minutes before I noticed they had come down. Each time all four windows were found rolled down about 1.5-2", all four rolling down the same amount. This morning was the closest I was to "seeing it in action." I was transferring my belongings from my cruiser to my TL. I'd popped the trunk and unlocked all four doors with the fab (two clicks of the unlock button). I just turned my cruiser's engine off and not yet started the TL's, so it was very quiet. I heard something that sounded like windows coming down and thought I'd hit the cruiser's auto windows. After noticing that the windows were still up in the cruiser I looked over at the TL to see all four windows equally down ~1.5". Any one heard of this or is my car possessed? Thanks!

Rob

As the previous poster noted, the keyfob will roll down your windows if you press and hold the unlock button for 2 seconds. It stops when you release the button.

I have a problem with my keyfobs when the keys are in my pocket. When I bend my leg a certain way, the car doors will lock. The same thing may be happening to you but with the unlock button.

That could suck if you unintentionally roll down your windows and it rains.

The keyless entry option is the bomb for me! I was showing off that option to everyone the first month I had my TL!

Thats why you just carry the keyless entry..... and leave the key in the car

I do the same but withthe panic button. My car keys are in the same pocket as my house keys (and other keys). Sometimes when I "squat", like working on the lawnmower, one of my keys will press against the fob. Twice I had the panic button go off and a few more times I've had the door lock/unlock go off.

Strangely enough, I've never accidently triggered the trunk.

All the buttons on the remote cept the trunk only require a quick push. I've noticed with mine, the trunk release requires me to hold it down for a second or so.
