| Description of the problem | Since we purchased the car 6 months ago we would find the doors unlocked and occasionally the trunk gate ajar. The gate was found ajar this morning, and had apparently been so all night, and the battery is now dead. This seems like a serious malfunction of the electrical system in the car. The trunk opening at random has drained our battery and may lead to further issues in the future. |
