Right rear sliding door has opened while car is moving. Suspect it is the cause of the battery being drained twice in the last few days when car was not driven during 48 hour period. The door will not open electronically now. It has to be forced open manually.

All windows except the driver's stopped functioning. This problem happens with engine on or off. This problem happens when stationary or moving. Tried the child safety button, but still a problem. You can hear them click, but the motors will not engage. It appears there is a faulty master switch. Others have the same issue here: https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-c3836_ds530625
