Why doesn't this exist?

A button on the key fob for rolling up all windows automatically after you've gotten out of the vehicle and started to walk away only to realize you've left a window down.

VW has had this on their cars for a long time now also.

Didn't we win the war? What the heck is going on?!

We have remote start/stop

Yep, and even if not remote, just using the key turned all the way to the right to do up all windows would be nice.

My Golf in Europe and my dad’s Passat Synchro both could close all windows by just turning the key all the way to the right, even without remote locks. At the Very Least have that.

Ford/Mustang has standard remote window down, but no remote up.
I'm thinking safety reasons?

That feature, among a couple others, was something I was able to add to my '99 Corvette with a small plug-in to the OBD II (don't have who the supplier was right now). Perhaps something like that could be offered by some third party (though I agree would be better via stock software).

Maybe they don't make them anymore in the aftermarket, but I had something installed years ago that enabled you to do that, put your windows up and down remotely. great for hot days or for when a storm suddenly rolls in.

For a Wrangler, that would involve also automatically taking off, or re-installing, the hard top with the keyfob. I mean, simply rolling up the windows when a storm suddenly rolls in, when the top is sitting back at home, wouldn't do you very much good.

Then I guess you better have a bunch of these guys at your disposal then....

Volkswagon does this via the key

My wife's 2001 Volkswagon Jetta does this in the US as well. With the car off and the key out, you can turn and hold the key left to lower them all, and turn and hold right to raise them all.

The ODBII plug for the corvette is from Top Down Tech if I remember right. Pretty decent and configurable. Should be easy to do one for the JL but I’m not sure what vehicles they support. Someday I’ll take the time to check.

Because some dumbass will also forget their kids in there and also possibly sticking their head out of the window at the same time the windows are going up.
