The panoramic sunroof will not open. I can hear the motor however the interior or exterior sunroof will not open and the shifter does not stay in drive. My sister and I were on the interstate and she handed me a drink and hit the shifter and it slid into neutral without pushing the button.the heated seats do not heat properly.
