Last two drives this kept happening, emergency calls starting on their own, interior lights turning on and off without us touching anything!

Anyone else experiencing this phenomenon!?

Unable to upload video as it says wrong file type, is there a way to upload a video?

Here's a link to the video https://photos.app.goo.gl/FSmnvsQXQ9u933cq5
 
I've seen others mention that dust or muck on the lights can trigger them as they are touch sensitive, give them a really good clean and see what happens.

Yes I wondered that, but surely this wouldn't trigger the emergency call to start and also the light on door open button to randomly come on off too?
 
I have partly the same problem, my lights turn on off randomly. Rest of the buttons don't work at all. This might be caused by water coming into the console via the antenna. I think the dealer put a high pressure hose on the antenna and some water seeped through. It's drying very very slowly and the problem seems to slowly solve itself. If not, I need to go back tot the dealer.

Where did they see water coming in, that is not good as imagine in a few years time the rust/electrical damage caused!?
 
They didn't. I discovered it on the way home when we picked the van up from the dealership. There were a few waterdroplets in the lights. The water is slowly evaporating, everthing works after that and if it is a one-time thing, I don't expect problems in the future. If it persists, the dealer probably has to replace the whole unit.
 
I had the same problem in a Skoda enyaq which has the same panel. In the end all interior lights stopped working. It was changed under warranty. Managed to cancel the calls in time before they were answered… just!

It also seems to turn on all the interior lights when locked as I locked and walked away earlier all lights definitely off and came back 10mins later and all the interior lights were on. When I hit unlock they went off!
It's going in on Friday so will add this issue to the list
