Phantom Windows

Lets see if anyone knows this one. I have an 01, 3.0. Last night I parked it in the driveway as usual. I didn't lock the doors as I normally do. This morning when I came out all of the windows were down? Has anyone heard of this?

Is it possible that the unlock button on the remote was somehow depressed and held down for a few seconds? That will cause the windows to go down and the sunroof to open.

I think maybe the CEO did it with her set of keys! Thanks for the replies.

Is it possible that somehow the unlock button on your key was pressed (say in your pocket) to where it would have lowered the windows??

That is the only way I would know this could be done with no power in the vehicle.

Yeah, I'd say so too. Unless someone was not far from there trying to record the signal from the remote control in order to steal the car at night and they pressed it for a few seconds longer. In that case you were luckyto see your carwhere you've left it.
BTW, I did not know there was a place left on earth where you can leave your car for night unlocked. Now i'm really jellous!!!
