Windows do not work when cold

So it is 14F outside and the windows on my NEW 2013 Clubman S refuse to go down with the switch!!! Anyone else have this problem? This is NOT acceptable in a modern car! Its happening on my girlfriends 2011 Cooper S as well. Driving the car until nice and toasty inside for 1 hour does not cure the problem. There is no ice or snow on glass either.

No issue on my 2012 MCS...odd that you have two afflicted at the same time? Weird. We had 8 degrees a few weeks back, no issue then either.

Yeah, wierd, especially since its happening to both my 2013 Clubman S AND my girl's 2011 MCS. We both park outside, but that shouldnt be an issue. Thanks for all the replys, even if it is to confirm that there is no issue on your end.
