+1 for notification on App if you walk away and window(s) are down. Give option in app to close the windows by holding down a button.

What about notification in the app 3 minutes after you have locked your car but windows are still open?

The windows won't close on your arm... stick a magazine in there if you want to check.

How about then a warning ? I can close them myself if the app tells me👀

Happened to me so many times, I'm actually fortunate nothing got stolen. Also maybe add the feature to the phone.

All my previous cars have had the option to close/open the windows remotely from the key fob!

i.e. hold down the lock/unlock button on fob.

 

I was very surprised that my Tesla could not.

Automatic garage doors sense if the motor is straining against an obstacle and will halt and reopen the door in that case. Couldn't Tesla's power windows sense if they're trapping a limb or other object in the window and reverse?

I personally would love a "close all windows upon sensing rain" feature, although I believe running the computer vision A.I. continuously to detect rainfall while parked would place too great a power demand on the 12V battery.

Even just being able to roll up all the windows via the mobile app would be a blessing. Also, they should all roll up automatically when remotely activating climate control.

The problem of safely auto-closing windows seems like one worth solving.

Some car insurance companies don't cover damage when the windows were open.

Or allow all windows and sunroof to open when approaching the car to help cool the interior on hot days.

Perhaps this could be combined with the rain sensor, to close Windows and roof automatical if it starts raining when the car is parked.

maybe add that you can close them with the remote (hold down roof button until they are closed)
