First happened 2007, repair order said "cause: Open circuit." Christmas 2008, left car while 5 hours out of town for one full week. Mid week, neighbor reported our lights came on and when we arrived home battery was totally dead. Took it in -"couldn't find anything", I doubt they even looked for anything. 3/9/09, 5:25 a.m., neighbor knocked on door, told us our lights were on. Took it in again, dealer said they can't do anything unless they can repeat it. It is so intermittent that I don't know when it will do it again, meanwhile I can't drive my car for 5 or more days while it sits there and we wait.
