Ok thank you for your answer. I think it amazing that with a + 110 000€ car, you can't do that. It is very, very dissappointing. I don't see the point between the rain and open/close windows with the fob ?!?
I don't have the pano roof !! On all the cars I had, even a Renault Clio, a Peugeot 206, etc have this very basic function. How can you understand that my 3000€ clio can do that without a single bug in many years, and the most technologic car cannot.
I'm curious, in what situations do you find this function useful?
Also, there was no bug with this feature, only the fact that it was pretty easy to press and hold on the roof button of the fob by accident, in the pocket for example.
They could have changed it to for example 3 quick clicks, there would be less risk of error with that.
How have you done it on cheap cars you've owned? (I have never had or used this feature with any car I've owned).
Most cars with a remote start will do that.But...how many cars will let you turn on the air conditioning and cool the car from your office? I do that on a regular basis in the summer and warm it up in the winter. No need to worry about the windows at all. The Clio or most other cars can't do that.
I'm glad they removed the feature from the FOB. I was one who would often find my windows down unexpectedly. But, I still think this would be a useful feature in the phone app. Plus, using rain sensors to detect rain and automagically roll up windows/close pano.
What I don't understand is that they mapped it to a stupid button combination (long hold on roof button). The whole thing could have been avoided had they selected a better button sequence, more like what other manufacturers use for this feature (like a double click and hold). So they used this easy-to-accidentally trigger sequence, rightly got a lot of complaints, and then removed it. I would have preferred they fix it rather than remove it, but fine, whatever.
THEN, they assigned the exact same sequence to a open the charge port (long hold on trunk button), and instantly started getting complaints about accidental openings of the charge port. They learned absolutely nothing from the above experience by repeating the exact same mistake, and we lost a feature in the process. :-/
Not Tesla's finest hour.
That wasn't really my point, but yes, there are many other options besides the one I mentioned. The reason other manufacturers use the "hold" portion of the sequence is because you can control how far the windows roll down (hold until they're down as far as you want them to be). That way you can just crack the windows, or completely roll them down.There are better user UI choices for fob pressing, see post #10 in this thread.
It's not like the car can't do it. In fact in earlier software versions it did, but it seems a lot more people were annoyed by the option than people who liked it. It gave rise to accidents in rain and snow and people came back to find their car with all windows down (theft could be a problem). Tesla got feedback from a lot of people and removed the feature. You are the first person to complain, that I've heard of.
