Door locks, lock and unlock on their own. Will do it anytime, doesn't matter is the car is running or not. Possibility of getting stolen or maybe the door will open while in motion. Happening as I type this...

Door latch defect causes windows to continually roll up and down after car is shut off thus causing battery to die overnight. This is not alleviated by leaving window slightly rolled down overnight. Apparently 2011 challengers have been recalled, but not 2012.

The windows on my car are continuously moving up and down without me touching the controls. The door handle latches are also getting stuck and in the mornings the car is dead and has to be jumped. I called the dodge dealership after googling the problem. The dealership told me the door latches need to be replaced at a cost of $350.00 each and they have had several of these complaints and problems. This is causing the windows to move by themselves and draining the battery overnight. They immediately knew what I was talking about. I think there should be a recall on these two problems. We pay too much for our cars as it is. Now I have to pay for a malfunction!

Driver side window going up and down and it drained my battery. Now I have to pay 500 dollars to get the door latch fixed because it's 'bad'. It's an electrical problem that obviously is happening to many people. Please do a recall on this problem!
