Your lights meaning headlights or interior lights?

I guess if parking area is dark your lights will turn on automatically. I am not sure about the door locks. Disconnect the battery. Also see how reset your windows after disconnecting your battery. it will reset everything.

this happened to me too. every time i turned into a store or a plaza where the ground is not flat, my car would lock or unlock then the lights would turn on and off on its own. after few days of ragging, i decided to dissect my car to fix the problem. note, my car is on coils. i found out that my doors are not perfectly sealed and lined up so when there is a sense of disconnection with the latches, it will do that. to fix it, i adjusted all 4 door panels so the latches can perfectly line up with the hooks to make a good seal. i hope it helps. have fun and good luck.

This is creepiest ***** I heard on this forum lol. Your car is haunted. Some ghosts are trying to get out. Stop the car, open all doors, wait 15 seconds and close all doors back. Hopefully it won't happen again.

I think ISlow350 offered a good explanation and solution.
