Auto windows down and moon roof?

Weird thing happened to me today. I had not driven my car yesterday or today. When I went to my garage after lunch today, I immediately noticed all 4 windows were down, and moon roof opened. I have owned my new 2012 Acura Advance for 1.5 months, and I have NEVER rolled all 4 windows down. I never have rolled the rear windows down. I usually lock my door every time when i get out and never leave driver window down. I have opened the moon roof maybe once. Is there something that would automatically roll all 4 windows down and moon roof down at same time without me knowing about it? This happened over night.

Auto feature when you press and hold the unlock button down. Maybe you bent over with the key in your pocket to take off your shoes and it got pressed just long enough to trigger it.

uto windows down and moon roof? Can this be disabled?

Lots of people think this is cool. I was one of them. But since it has happened accidentally twice to me, I'm thinking it less cool. I don't like coming back to my car parked in a lot and have all the windows down and the rook open.

So, question is: can this feature be disabled?

Thanks

2012 Acura TL SH-AWD w/ Tech

you can, use a cut off switch, just wire it in between the module so that whenever you want it off or on, you can just flick it with a switch.

Keep in mind, if ur windows are down and roof is open, that means ur car is UNLOCKED. so even if u disable the auto roll down, your still unlocking your car if ur pressing the button when you sit/bend/etc. So while your car is less bait (because the windows down is just asking for it), it's still unlocked. Just something to keep in mind!

Does the autolock still auto lock if the windows are down? i know my ody is set to auto lock 30 or 60 seconds (from factory, i dont think i can disable it), if i hit unlock and don't open the doors. But if the windows are down, it wont auto lock. Don't know if the TL is like this or not.

only way i can think of, is if you install an aftermarket alarm system of some sort. they would usually be able to program this stuff in or disable it. However, i've never looked into one for the TL so im not 100% sure what's available out there.
