This problem seems to occur when the weather is wet and/or cold. It did not occur during the summer months. The car is constantly signaling that the door is opened; the alert sounds and the warning light stays on. This is connected to the interior dome light, which I have to keep turned off. Otherwise it comes on intermittently while I'm driving--usually when turning. Until a week ago, I was able to assure everything was turned off by pushing hard on the door handle after the car was turned off. Now that isn't working, and the battery drains.

The Open Door indicator alarm goes off continuously while driving. The dashboard indicates that the driver door is not closed properly. When this happens, the door locks will be triggered and all four doors will move to the "unlocked" position.
Making a right turn, hitting a bump and slight pressure on the driver door from the inside will also trigger this issue.
We removed the Door Jamb Switch and the alarm stopped. The issue seems to be a bad Door Jamb Switch.
