bizarre occurance

One thing I am interested in is your model/color?

Also, if this were a factory problem, it may be interesting to know what your production date was (based on what I have read in some other forums, you could determine from your VIN) - perhaps there are other individuals who had their's built around the same time that should be on the lookout.

Good luck - and I hope your dealer is one of the good ones we hear about
