Cool windows

I park the focus in the shed. The temp has gone sub zero for last 2 nights. In the morning all 4 windows are wound DOWN. Yes i know about the remote trick. The second
night i made sure it was night pushed. Anyone else experienced this?

It gets pretty cold where I live & never had a problem. Maybe the battery is on the way out. Sometimes a dying battery can make cars do funny things

Have you ever found your car unlocked randomly? Perhaps someone in the area has a remote that shares the same frequency and may have caused it to happen??

You would hate for it to happen again when you are out somewhere.

I hope its not the battery, the car is only a year old?. Saying that, it did happen inside a metal shed, so, i expect the remote not being capable to access the car. Will check the battery, thanks

I can't say that I have ever experienced that issue with my LS. However I do note that when the car has been left untouched in the garage for a long time the remote locking stops working as if the car goes into a power saver mode. Possibly not related.
