4 strange problems
Okay so problem #1: I unlock the car via the key fob, get in and it locks the doors on me, requiring me to unlock it again before starting. It also will re-lock the doors if I'm outside the car too. Changed fobs and batteries still does it. Also won't unlock the hatch except for 1 in 10 tries. Passive lock/unlock is off.
#2: Security light comes on intermittently. sometimes it will pop on while driving or just after starting the car. usually turning the car off then back on fixes this problem.
#3: Just noticed this last night. With the clutch pedal about an inch from the floor you can hear a pretty bad squeaking sound, definitely sounds rotational. If the pedal is released or pushed all the way down the sound goes away. Throw out bearing dying maybe?
#4: I installed new sway bars about 2 months ago and ever since then my E-brake light will pop on during heavy acceleration or hard bumps. Could I have loosened a wire or sensor somehow? I didn't have any problems installing them at all.
None of these problems are big deals, I hope, but just annoying. Thanks for any help

Maybe the door key sensor or seat sensor or ignition key in/out sensor is not sensing right. So auto lock/unlock is activating ...

Security may think the door is not closed/locked ... again the door key sensor which is also the door ajar sensor ... which is attached to the electric lock & alarm & ....
Me thinks the door electrics are not right ... just the door key switch or maybe the door module (?)

As for the auto-lock/unlock my car has never done this since I've had it. I've actually posted on here that the doors didn't auto-lock while driving. Only response I got was that it should, but it won't.
Is there one module that controls the locking/unlocking & security? My bro-in-law says that I have too many keys on my keychain, but I don't think so, I only have about 8keys on it.

the fact that he door auto lock /unlock feature never worked is a good clue ...
plenty of people on this forum know more about the door control module ...
sorry , but I don't
I think the the door/window valet sold here by a vendor works in conjunction with the door module (?)
maybe try in that direction ...
or maybe try a new post asking about the door module operation ...
