Default hot temps = auto crack open window?

Hi all,

Today was a scorcher in socal. Driving home, it showed 104 on my dash, which means the inside of my car, parked outside at 1pm must have been insanely hot. Around 5pm, walked out to my car and noticed both front windows were rolled down by about an inch. I am pretty positive i did not do this. Does the car auto roll down windows if the inside temp gets to a specific degree?

Doubtful, maybe you accidentally held the unlock button for a few seconds

I have no doubt that you accidentally did a long press of the unlock button as aznKewlguy suggested, as can easily happen from other objects poking the key fob in your pocket or purse. That's why I set that feature "off" -- it's a Lexus Preference setting that the dealer or anyone with a Techstream tool can modify.
