USB Problems
Seems like whenever my car gets cold my usb port doesnt work. It syncs up my zune and then disconnects it a couple of seconds later. After about 5 mins or so of heating the car up if i try to sync the zune up again it will work (eventually). I know its not the zune or the cable because in the morning it syncs up fine with no problem (My car is garage kept). And i thought it might be the zune or the cable so i brought them inside which stays 70 all day. When i went out for lunch i brough my zune out with me and the same problem happened. Anybody else having this problem? It was about 25 here today, about 10 with the wind.

I have a similar issue (with my Pioneer) but it's not a bad usb port. I leave my ipod hooked up to my car unless I have new music to put on it. The issue I have found is that the Ipod stays powered on even with the power of the car is turned off. One person claims there is an automatic shut-off option in the settings of my ipod classic but I've never found it (just a sleep mode) This causes my head unit to wakeup the ipod but as soon as the ipod detects it's got hardly any battery life in it, it will "disconnect" from the Pioneer until it's got enough juice to power back on. This doesn't happen every time I use my car, but possibly once a week.

Other than this little problem the car is perfect. I love it. Im happy its not a engine problem but im not holding my breath just yet. I just got it this past wendesday I really didnt think I was gonna get looks since in my town mustangs are a dime a dozen but im getting alot.

If no, of course, your Zune is jacked up. Call Microsoft for that, unfortunately.
Cold should have absolutely no relevance on whether or not your USB will work or fail. I have used computers in sub-zero temps before, and they fired up okay, although typing with extreme cold mits is no fun (find and peck typing, taking off the gloves would expose my skin to the severe cold, which is very bad news from what I understand).
What I am trying to get at is go ahead and take it to the dealership if it is not your Zune that is jacked up. Even if they do not know what the hell to do, they can at the very least replace the USB hook-ups, or the whole Sync radio set.
