When I see this windows down problem it usually ends up being the drivers door latch assembly, on any model. That's the only other thing that puts the windows down is the key in the latch turned to unlock and held and we think water/corrosion may be getting in the lock on some of these causing the feature to be activated.

As for the increased battery discharge message, that is an E70 problem in general and from what AI understand there is a programming fix for it that changed the charging parameters for the alternator.

Passengers front door open message may be the latch as well.
