Strange things with my 370Z

Arc · 09-18-2012, 01:33 PM

I park outside, facing towards the house. The car was locked and secured for the night.

Incident 3, today:
This morning when I walked out to my car, I saw that both windows were not up.
At first, I thought someone broke both windows, but I didn't see glass shatter anywhere.
When I checked, I saw that both windows had been rolled all the way down.
What caused this to happen? Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere.
Should I take it to the dealership? Would they know what to do so that this doesn't happen again?
The car was outside, and I have no idea when the windows rolled down and for how long, but I found a dead spider and cobwebs inside.

Incident 2:
A few weeks ago, when I got into the car, I also saw that the center storage door was open and so was the passenger side glove box compartment.
The car had been sitting for over a week and no one entered the car, yet these two compartments were opened? Would some strong vibration cause these two doors to open by themselves?

Incident 1?:
My 370Z shipped just days after the horrible Japan tsunami hit in March 2011.
I had the car in the garage. While the car was off, I sat in the driver seat and inspected the interior. I noticed out of the corner of my eye, in the side view mirror, I saw a shadow figure walk behind the 370Z. This happened twice and freaked me out a little.

Now, no one has access to my 370Z and I keep a FOB with me and hid the other one so no one can have access to the 370Z.

Anyone have strange things like this happen to their 370Z?

Incident 3, you pressed/held the unlock button down inadvertently

Depoint^^^^^^^^^^^^^Good point!

Are you messing with us??? I think you def. have a ghost!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had the windows come down before..However, in my circumstance I was putting the top back up and the windows automatically come down to do so. I think I just forgot to power them up.

I don't know. The key was sitting on my shelf after I locked the car. No one touched the key fob.

I keep the key fob in my bedroom on my shelf so I would see if anyone grabbed it.
I suppose you have a 370Z roadster, but I have the coupe version.

My thought as well

onzedge · 09-18-2012, 01:55 PM

OP -- do you experiment with hallucinogens bu any chance?

Seriously, though -- the windows down thing can happen if your fob is in your pocket and just normal movement/sitting can put enough pressure on the unlock button to casue the windows to roll down.

Where in MN are you? We have property up in Otter Tail County.

Set up a security camera and record your Z when it's sitting outside or in the garage overnight.

Have you're Z blessed by your Paster/Priest with Holy water and if that don't work?

Call Zak from The Ghost Adventures he'll get to the bottom of it.

I agree on the pressing of the button by accident

Yeah I was convinced I had gremlins/ghosts the first time this happened.

That probably led to #2 and someone checked to see if there was anything in the car.

For incidents 1 and 2, I would consult Peter Venkman and/or say prayers to Zuul.
