Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: January 10th the 'door ajar' sensor came on and the interior lights were on. i checked all 4 doors, they were all closed and the lights remained on. i then pushed the 'reset' button for the sensor and the lights then would go off for a brief time and come back on. then, today january 11th the same thing occurred but after the car was turned off for a couple of hours the problem increased. i started the car, the 'door ajar' sensor came on along with the lights. again the doors were checked, they were all shut. as i started to drive the lights went off, then when i came to a complete stop. the lights would turn on, and when i pushed the gas the lights faded away and turned off. when i turned my car off and locked the doors the lights stayed on for over 10-15 minutes. i've had numerous people look at it, and they don't understand what could have caused it. but there being a short or touching wires. i have not yet done anything to correct the problem. im having someone else look at the wiring january 12th.*ak
