Default Who keeps rolling down my windows??

Is this a known issue?? I have a '06 Accord EX Coupe and everyday when I go to work I notice that through the night time my windows are down ever so slightly, just enough to let the cold air in :-(

I power them up, go to work and after work go out to the car to notice once I am inside the car the windows are slightly open :screwy:

Is there an adjustment the dealer could make that would stop this and if so what? I will call the dealer tomarow to make an appointment but want to sound intelligent when I describe the problem and make sure that it is fixed correctly.

Today in fact I even made it a point to lock the windows with that button on the door but to no avail, yet my windows show no finger or hand marks so I dont think anyone is screwing with the car while I am in the office.

Thanks.

You keepin your finger on the unlock button (on the remote) too long?? I know that rolls down the windows on my wife's 05 Oddyssey (when the hold the unlock button on the 2nd tap for more than 2-3 seconds), but I'm not sure if that's the case withthe new Accords....

Ok, I feel dumb It was the remote that was doing it when I go to enter the vehicle. Thing is it just started happening and that is because it is cold out and as I run to my car at night (as it is cold out) I am clicking the remore like 5 times just to make sure it is unlocked so I can jump in the car and get away from the cold

I called the dealer today, then cancelled my appointment after I verified the problem. hehehe

Thanks

Yea, not exactly sure why that is a feature but if you press the unluck button on the remote one time it will unlock your door, then again it will unlock the passenger side door. Press it and hold it a third time and your windows go down
