Reported at 3,100 miles, November 2014

My car has had numerous electrical issues since the day I have purchased it. Again, last week, the instrument panel lit up with numerous codes. I drove it to the dealership and left the car for a few days. The codes cleared and they cannot root cause the issue. In addition, when I have been at a stop light the driver's seat regresses backwards, and the side view mirror moves at the same time.
