Electrical issues

Hi,
Has anyone seen any issues with the electrics in the Corsa-F? I have had my car a few weeks and have seen a lot of problems that are replicated on the courtesy car the dealership has given me while they investigate (don't know how they've not noticed them on their own car).
I've got:
A/C coming on nearly every time I start the car (annoying and no way to turn it off);
Blind spot indicator has never worked and I am on 70mph roads as well as city roads so it should have come on somewhere;
Auto-wipers have to be deactivated manually on startup to then be activated manually so that they will work during the drive (what's the point??);
Heated steering wheel isn't working properly;
Car went crazy when I exited and kept locking and unlocking - this is the one that's causing me the most concern to be honest.
It's not great craic that there seem to be daft issues that are impacting upon the functionality of the car, especially when I've driven other Vauxhalls with the same technology and this hasn't been how the same tech has functioned. If I buy a car with auto wipers, I expect them to automatically work if it rains, not to have to boost them manually to get them to work, for a start.
