Default 2010 GS350 window question/funny issue

hello all thanks for take the time to read this.
I bought my GS new and it has 40K miles now. It is a 2010 GS AWD. Yesterday I get off work, a hot day, I get in the car, started the car, and passenger front window rolled down by it self. I tried to rolled it back up and it would not go up. I shut the car off and re-started and was able to roll it up. I thought maybe it was the heat. The next day it happened again, but this time while I was driving. There are no funny noises coming from in side the door and no water has ever gotten in there. I also never leave the windows cracked instead I raise the sun roof up for heat to escape. I find this very odd and wondering if anyone else have experienced the self-operating window. The rest of the windows work just fine.
Battery has never been disconnected. Anyone have an idea what may be causing this window to operate on its own? a lose wire maybe?

your feed back is greatly appreciated!

Hi. I don't know what could be causing that problem, but I found your post interesting because I just had something very similar happen to me/ my car. I have an '09 450h with about the same mileage. Mine was the front driver's window, on a hot day, and my window would not close. I tried to just do the auto-close as usual and it kept rolling back down as soon as it hit the top. It did this several times. I finally just had to keep inching the window up until it was all the way closed for the ride home. That was a couple of weeks ago and it hasn't done that since. Like you, I've never had any damage to the window/ door/ electrical/ or any part of the car, really. Thanks for reminding me about this. I'm curious to read what the smart folks here have to say.

Thanks for sharing your story. My guess is it is either program or switch. I have not have time to mess with it. I just have all windows locked for now because i dont want it to roll down by it self while is raining. Mine will work properly for a day and next may not. I am also interested to see if there are other people with similar issue or have experience it. If I find out what is it I will post updates.

Now the window rolls down when I pull the switch up ward from the driver side and if I push down on the switch window stops.
Could be this a program issue? is so how to reset and set the windows?
