Cool Windows and sunroof open themselvs

Hello;
All of the sudden when I come out to my car, I find the windows open a bit, and the sun roof open to vent.
Is this some kind of automatic cooling feature, and if so, how do I turn it off?
Is this a malfunction or what.
Ideas?

Thanks forum

Did you happen to hold the key-less entry button down a little too long?

Question Now I am confused

Is this a feature that is controlled with the keyless entry??
I just want it off.
I came out this morning and all windows are down 4 inches, and sunroof in vent!
Confused!

Actually, what you described is a function produced by holding the unlock feature on your key-less entry control for an extended period of time (~ five seconds). Conversely, holding the lock feature on your key-less entry control for that same period of time will produce the opposite (close all windows and sunroof). In your situation, standing directly in front of the driver's door holding the lock feature down for a few seconds would have closed your windows and sunroof. Hope this helps.

Cool SOLVED!!

The cup holder over the console!
On a recent trip this happened while I was driving.

Come to find out, moisture condensing on a cool beverage in the cup holder dripped condensatid on on to the console. Right below the cup holder is the rearview mirror control ancomputer that controls the windows.

I took out the switches and computer, dried them, and all was well.

Moisture in the window controler.

The feature you describe will not "vent" the roof... meaning raise it at the rear... it will only slide it back... on the "unlock" side... there is something else going on here.
