I have a 2013 Dodge Challenger. The windows will go up and down after the car is turned off. Had to replace battery. I didn't know the window was doing it until we replaced the battery for 175.00 - ugh, Dodge sucks. They had a recall on the 2011-2012 for the same reason but not in these models. I called Dodge Corp. They told me to call NHTSA so maybe they will put a recall on it. The number is 1888 327 4236. So maybe if we can get enough complaints on this, we can make them recall these models. It's called the smart glass door latch.
The smart glass will cycle up and down 1/4 inch, while the ignition is off. This is happening on both the driver and passenger doors, causing the windows to go up and down which then causes the battery to drain while parked overnight. There was a 2011-12 Dodge Challenger smart glass Technical Service Bulletin put out for older models, which replaced the door latches causing this issue. However, it is still an issue in my 2013 Challenger. Dodge knew of this issue and still installed the same parts in later models. They should do the right thing, and issue a recall or TSB, and take care of this issue for their customers!
