So I just learned today that if you hold down the unlock button the front windows will roll down. Pretty cool feature they didn’t tell me and drove over a week and didn’t know. Enjoy

Awesome! We have that on our '20 Equinox too and I find it very useful. What I wish they ALSO had was if you hold the lock button that it would put all the windows UP too!

Can't do the auto roll-up because somebody, somewhere, somehow, would get their fingers pinched -- and then the legal beagles would come a-bayyin'!

I had my Ridgeline for a couple of years before I learned that I could do this lol

I haven't tested the SC, but many windows (particularly with 1 touch auto up) are auto-reversing if they contact anything.

I saw a video of someone using the remote to open the tailgate, is that only on the higher end models or all models?

I have the SE w/ AWD... and yes the remote can open the tail gate. You just have to hold it a moment, as printed on the remote. The tail gate is balanced or assisted very well. Easy to close.

How about the windows down feature on the SE. Can you hold the unlock button and have driver and passenger windows both go down?

Also, I think I read only the drivers window had auto down and up using the door switch, and the passenger window does not have the automatic feature. Can you confirm this?

Thanks!

I could not make the front windows roll down by holding down the unlock button. The passenger window does not have the auto down functionality, just the driver's window. This is an SE AWD trim level.

Thanks. I can live with that. Drivers window auto down/up is almost a requirement these days for parking garages and fast food. I do know the SEL I looked at had the unlock-hold both window down feature. That's great for cooling your car down when entering on a hot day, but it isn't going to be a deal killer for me on an SE AWD.

Can confirm this works on my SEL w/ Activity. I have to hold down the "unlock" button for at least five seconds before they open. That being said, I have to hold it down - as soon as I let go of the button the windows stop. It has auto-open for both front windows - maybe it's so you can crack the windows instead of all the way down.

I have a premium edition and I can confirm both front windows will go down if holding the unlock button. Like the above poster said it stops as soon as you let go of the button though.

I just walked out of a store and found my windows down. Played with the remote and couldn't get them to roll up. Opened the door and pushed the button to turn on the car, still nothing. I loaded my stuff into the bed then when I got in and started the car they worked normally.

Thank goodness I had a vague memory of reading something about this here and was able to find it. Guess I had too much stuff in my pocket with my key fob and accidentally pressed unlock from inside the store. And also thank goodness my iPhone was still in the center console, I left it because I was just running in quickly. I know, I shouldn't do that.

Thanks for this thread! I would never have known about or tried this if I hadn't read it here.

I wish the lock button would roll up all the windows like it does on my Jetta
