Anybody else experience this? 2022 SE AWD parked behind the house. Windows up when parked and locked. Nobody opened the car or handled key fob. Now the windows are down!!!!

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 hold the lock button 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
