Has anyone tried using the key fob.to roll the windows up and down. I had a 14 fusion for a rental this summer and when I used the key fob and hit unlock once then held down the unlock it would roll all the windows down. When I did the same with lock it would roll them up.

Anyone try this with the Mustang?
I have video illustrating everything the key fob does on the Mustang. Enjoy!

FYI, unless I'm wrong, remote start won't work if you're using this roll down feature

I will try it, but if you want both then, I would Auto start the car and then put Windows down. That sequence works for sure. That's how I did it in my video on previous post.

Global open is a pretty common feature. Lots of cars have it and owners don't know. Just go out and try it with your Honda, Toyota, Lexus, BMW, Chevy, Hyundai....

Most only do down with unlock. The idea is to give at least a few seconds to allow the hot air out before you get in. Most cars require you to double-clutch - one press to unlock, then press and hold to roll windows down.

I've noticed the exact opposite with my car. I can't roll the windows down with the fob if I've already used remote start, but I can lower them and then remote start the car.

I noticed in your video that you shut the car off before rolling the windows down
