My 2019 MS Performance has an issue with the driver's door where after closing the door, it opens itself. I close the door firmly but not hard, the door latches, and the window raises slightly. Then after a beat, the door opens itself. This is a problem, because I need the door to be closed so I can drive the car. Luckily, if I hold the door closed (pushing hard from the outside or pulling hard from the inside), often it will stay closed.
Also the door handle started acting up at the same time. Sometimes it partially extends, sometimes it doesn't extend at all, and sometimes it fully extends normally. When it extends at all, sometimes the handle quickly pops closed. If I press on the handle, the door opens, so this is less of a problem, but I suspect the two issues (door opening uncommanded, and door handle being wonky) are connected because they both began at the same time.
Any thoughts on what might be causing this? I've watched some videos on door handle shenanigans, but none of the typical issues (broken gear; bad switch; broken wire) seemed to lead to behavior like this. In particular, there are no weird sounds, and the handle sometimes fully extends, so I'm not suspecting a broken gear. Any thoughts? I appreciate any feedback.
