Something in your pocket or purse pressed and held the "unlock" button on the key fob while it was in range of the car.

This happened to me at work shortly after getting the car. Fortunately it wasn't raining. I had the dealer disable the ability of the keyfob to open the windows and roof -- problem solved.

Ahh the unlock-roll down feature. i love it when i know the car is hot on the inside, i can just roll down the windows while im walking to it. But gotta be careful with that key fob! If you press it down by accident for long enough it will open. =/ Happened to me once, luckily i park inside the garage so nothing did happen. But i was like o_O when i found it like that lol

Then where do you put your key fob?!


This has happened to me several times. One time it happened at night and I didn't notice until the next morning after it had been raining all night. At least my car was under a carport, so water only came in through the driver's side. I had the dealer disable the feature.
