Car Unlocking itself/Setting off the alarm?
Okay so last night me and my wife are sitting at home and out of nowhere my alarm goes off, I rush outside and nothing. I disarm the alarm look around and re-arm it before going inside. 20 minutes later, it happens again - and again I rush outside and repeat this process. It happened once more about 3 hours later while we lay in bed and I came to the conclusion that the car was setting itself off so I disconnected the battery for the night because I'm in the Military and I have to get some sleep.
While I'm driving the car the next morning I notice that my doors unlock and overhead light comes on while on the freeway at about 65 MPH, I tried to relock the doors and that's when I realized that the Lock/Unlock button isn't responding at all, and this random unlocking of the doors is what's been setting off the alarm.
I'm not a very Tech savvy guy, nor do I know much about cars. I'm hoping that there is an easy fix to this because the car is no longer under warranty. Has anyone experienced this problem before?

Sounds like one of the door switches is bad...maybe an intermittant short but I would think the switch is definitely not closing correctly. You might want to try and clean them.
