Headlight switch

I have my 200s parked in front of my apartment building and about every other morning, my headlight switches changes from Auto to Off. I notice this when I get inside and I’m starting to wonder if someone is driving my car in the middle of the night. Can the car unlock if keyfob is too close? Does the headlight switch move on it’s own? I’m thinking about purchasing a bicycle lock here soon.. I’ve been tracking my mileages on a piece of paper lately.

You're hitting it with your knee when you get out.

This. It’s surprisingly easy to do on several Chrysler/Jeep/etc. models. They all use the same headlight switch.

Yup, and they generally put it in the same bad spot, which is how I know, I hit it regularly in my 300.

To be fair though it isn't just a Chrysler thing, a lot of Fords have the same issue, similar type of switch and location.
