Driver's Side Window Rolled Down by Itself
Hi, new poster here. I came back to my 2007 Acura TL after parking it last night to find the driver’s side window down and all other windows up. The window went back up just fine, so I don’t know if it could be the regulator. I am pretty agitated because the area where I live has gotten tons of rain recently and a lot of it got in my car.
Most posts I saw relating to similar issues concerned the key fob window roll down feature. However, I am pretty certain this wasn’t the issue for a couple reasons:
1) I triple checked that my car was locked last night – I actually walked back from my apartment and pressed the lock button until I heard the beep. The unlock button doesn’t make this beep.
2) Only the driver’s side was down – the key fob window roll down rolls down all windows and opens the sunroof.
My first though is that maybe it’s just an electrical issue – the power seats can draw off the battery with the car off, so maybe if the wiring is faulty or something then the power windows could erroneously do the same. I’m generally at a loss though. Anyone experienced anything similar? Any help is greatly appreciated - I love my car and the interior is in near-perfect condition so all the water getting on my seat and in the carpet sucks.

Could be a failing regulator causing it to slowly go down overnight
