The power sliding door would often stop in the middle of opening or closing, or just not open or close at all. Had this problem entire time owned car. Never replicated in shop. We also had an issue with the front headlight shorting out due to water leaking into the headlight. We repaired this a few times also, but it never was fully resolved.  The rear windshield wiper also stopped functioning properly.
