Or the interior lights came on and the doors unlocked when you touched the handle? <:0) Sorry, just trying to get the obvious out of the way. |

First time it happened I thought I had forgotten to turn the light off. Took me a while to realize the detection function. |

The car was in stealth mode, then finally needed to charge the HV battery. |

When I took delivery, I spent 10mins trying to open the power windows, not knowing you had to press power twice if you didn't press the brake pedal while turning it on. |
