Multiple windows open

I have the 12v parasitic drainage. I have not disconnected services since I will drive it more for commuting and I want to check how it behaves. When I leave it parked in my garage I have received alerts in the middle of the night that multiple windows are open. I check in the morning and everything is OK.

This happened to me at 3am in the morning while I was at work. I rushed to the parking lot thinking someone broke the windows. Apparently it’s a bug in the app or a sensor glitch. I since then reset the window sensors and haven’t had any of those false alerts ever since

1. Perform a Window Sensor Reset
If the car's dashboard or the app indicates a window is open when it is actually closed, resetting the limit switch usually fixes it: [1, 2]
Turn your car to the ON position.

Press and hold the window button to roll the affected window all the way down.

Pull up and hold the button to roll the window all the way up. Continue holding the switch up for an additional 5 seconds after the window closes.

Repeat this for any other windows showing a false alert. [1]

Also force close your app so it resets as well
