"Door open" light comes on in dash, alarm sounds, interior and courtesy lights come on, power door locks lock and unlock while driving down the road. Is this a door switch gone bad? Where are they located? Also shudders going into top gear, a friend (ex ford mechanic) said converter issue, needs fluid change and friction modifier. Is this true? Anything else it might be?
