    Mystery! 2018 SQ5 tailgate opening by itself

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Drove home at 6, never opened the back, locked the car. Took dog out at 10, still closed. Poured down rain all night. Went out at 6 AM and back end wide open. Car still locked and it chirped when I pushed the button and closed the tailgate. Fortunately, not much water in and only in cargo tray. Once before I’ve gone out to the garage and found it open, but no recollection of not closing it.
    Also had one strange incident of one of the rear map lights not going out until I pulled the fuse to kill it.
    Anyone else had anything like this happen?

    The only time it's happened to me is when tight jeans pressed the fob button in my pocket.
