Ground control to..............
Ok 3weeks into parking the new c7corvette g/s in the heated garage, I finally get the Oppurtunity To sync my car with the garage door opener. After reading The manual that came with my car I Got the Lift master door operator to function. No problem, But Then low and behold I'm getting Phantom openings Uncommanded movement In the open position. Has anybody run into the same situation? It kind of Sucks to come home and find your garage Door wide open

It looks like you're also getting random un-commanded movements of your shift key. 
Does the door open when the car is in the garage, out of the garage, or both? If you're home with the car in the garage, how often does the door open or close?
Do you have another car in the garage when the door is misbehaving?

Interested to hear back from the OP. My Liftmaster may be doing the same thing, or I'm getting really forgetful and not closing the door when park the car...or...the damn door has a mind of its own

What I did was unplugged the unit and of this morning I woke up to another 6" of snow outside that's because I bought a new Corvette of course. I will check the remote control buttons In the GS to make sure they're not sticking And erase all the codes and try again, I downloaded the Lift master Fault codes that are indicated by the units Fault light,

Is it possible that one of your neighbors was opening or closing their door at the same time you programmed yours? If so, maybe the unit picked up their signal, and now they are inadvertently opening your door too.
I think erasing and re-programming is a good suggestion.

as for the theory of any one else having a remote to open it is a learn marry system and it cant happen also it only has about a 50' range so your car cant open it from work

Is it possible you have another remote some where with button pressed? (this happened to me with one of the original garage remotes stored in a draw)
