Dang, I'm glad mine doesn't do that. I think the Taos comes from the factory with a curse on the electrical system. Mine has all sorts of random electrical glitches, and from what I can tell reading this forum, lots of others are having all kinds of weird issues as well.

Man that's Way scary! First time i have heard that happen on any car in my 71 yrs. Let us know how that pans out.

i doubt it happened by its self. Definitely sounds like someone had the fob in a pocket or something. If you press unlock once and then press and hold it a second time it will open the windows

Sounds like a good prank too! Hopefully it was just an accidental key fob press op. I didn’t realize that was a function.

Thanks for the input! No recurrence to date. There are rumblings though of Atlas window drops related to a wiring harness issue. Just my luck, have a 2021 Altas SEL Premium too. S'all good, really like our two Dubs and will just roll with it, LOL

For what it's worth, there is notification setting in the CarNet/ MyVW app that will send you an alert when the windows are open and closed (among others).

Ps I did test this and holding down lock on remote lowers all the windows at the same time. Probably an accidental butt-dial. Seems like the reverse doesn’t happen though - raising them all.

I've owned a couple GM "Huge-Utes" that had similar functionality "down but not up." Probably so because of concern over liability and safety of occupants (see corporate legal, LOL) This seems to be the only actual explanation. It's been cold and I've been scrambling to get our fencing sealed, wearing a big old sweatshirt with the keys sometimes in the pouch - leaning etc

It hpppened to me today. Turns out it must have been the fob in my pocket holding down the unlock button and lowered all the windows. These new VW fobs don’t like me because I am always popping the trunk on my 2019 Jetta 😭

I know I’m late on this thread but thank you for this piece of information. The above hasn’t happened to me but I’m likely to use this feature.

I learned that on this thread. Helps air out the car quick in hot days.

I don’t know why I wrote lock button. See my comment for the updated instructions.

Happen to me first time last night. Im up in the mountains at my get-a-way house and I came in for the night locked the car and happen to go back out cause i left something in car. BAM all my windows were open. Could only imagine what could have been waiting for me this morning in there, we got every kind of animal you could imagine up here, LOL

As we all know you have to press the lock once to lock and twice for horn to beep showing alarm is set. So I'm always pushing it twice, stupid stupid stupid....

Yes. This morning. It rained of course and NO. No one messed with my fob or "pranked"me (eyeroll). I have no explanation and am disturbed that no one else has experienced this. WTH?
