Is my ML350 haunted?? WTF

Ok so here is the story. It been raining hard all week in long island from sunday to wendsday all day long.
On tuesday i was driving the car and the SRS light came on. I just got the car three weeks ago, 07 ml350 50k on it.I was like WTF
so i called the dealer to send it back to them. After driving for a while , my back door open automaticly and i
started to lose funtions left and right,.....i thought it was an electrical problem. I had no turning signals,rear camara was not working,
my gas gauge said it was on Empty with the light when i just filled it up, and the light for the doors were on when the
doors were closed. I was so mad. So the next morning i drove the car was not raning and everything was fine except the srs light
so i was sooo pissed off because they dealer could not do anything because everything was back to normal.

what do u think it was? i was thinking some condensation got into the control bos or somehthing. what should i do>?

Most likely not condensation. Perhaps water into a connector that was incorrectly installed. However the computer should have stored a fault. Did they interrogate the computer?? You were not clear if it was a Benz dealer or an independent. [I]f it was a Benz dealer the first thing they should have done was to check the computer. If it was an Indy the first thing you should have done was to get the car out of there.
