All the windows and sunroof opened by themselves!?

I went outside the other day at work to discover that all my windows had rolled down and the sunroof was open. Thank God it hadn't started raining yet. What happened?

Is there any chance that the unlock button on the key fob was depressed? If you hold it down when you unlock the car it will open all the windows and sunroof.

Maybe when you walked away and put the keys in your pocket, you depressed the unlock button. I have the Alcantara key case and I know sometimes it likes to hit the alarm button on me in my pocket.

This happens to me a lot, or the trunk opens, or the alarm goes off. It only happens in my garage at home.

I keep my keys in my pocket, so it is easy for one of the buttons to get pushed accidentally.

This is also Exhibit A as to why I never want a car with remote start!!

If you are at home, why do you need to keep your keys in your pocket?

"Need"? It's a "want". As in I want to have my keys in my pocket so I don't have to look for them.
