Charging Port door opens on its own

During this time, I have been leaving my MX plugged in. Recently after a trip to the store, I drove into the garage and
got out of the car. As I was closing the driver's door I heard the charging port door open. This has happened a few times.
Toughts on why this is happening?

Going to assume that this is a bug with the latest software release. I've noticed that mine is randomly opening when I'm approaching the vehicle as well. In addition, I've been getting sporadic messages about the vehicle detecting a passenger restrain fault upon entry into the vehicle.

I'm starting to notice a trend with software releases. They update one thing and it causes a bug with something else.

Do a full reboot. In park, foot on brake pedal, press and hold both steering wheel buttons until the displays shutdown down. Let go and wait a minute or so for the reboot.
