One night the car locked itself. When the radio is turned on it will stay on the selected station for a little while and then it will start skipping through all the stations. Sometimes the windshield wipers will work and sometimes they will not come on at all. One night after putting the windows up I was in the house and saw the driver window roll down by itself.
