Both days this past weekend I'm driving and all of a sudden my sunroof starts opening on its own. It freaked me out since we'd just had a snowstorm and I thought for sure some snow would start falling in. Fortunately it opened to the tilt setting and not the slide-back one, and most of the snow on the roof had already been blown off.

I've owned the car (2k2 SE) for a little over a year now, and it's happened 4 times total - twice last spring, and then the two times this weekend.

Has anyone else experienced this before? What could cause the thing to open? Condensation on the electronics?

max...to the ma
