It's a 2015. I've had it for about 5 months now and this is the first issue I've had with it. I successfully unlocked the car around 3pm, went to press the start button and everything turned off. The fob wasn't working and I figured it was just the battery. I noticed there was a clicking sound so I hit the start button again and it went away.

I've had some stuff to do so I was unable to jump it yet. Around 6:30 I saw out my window that the rear lights were on. The front lights were turning on and off slowly as if it were a pattern. I got this on video because I thought it was odd. If this sounds like something particular and the video would be helpful, I can upload it.

Does anyone know what would cause this behavior?

Check the battery voltage... a fully-charged lead-acid car battery is around 12.6 volts at 100%.

In addition, check to see if the doors are latching properly, since that is a trigger for interior lights. Has been known to cause battery drain on other models.

You might have to go through a parasitic draw test also if the cause cannot be immediately isolated.

Have you swapped any lights to LED?
