I would check for water in the boot behind the black plastic panel in the spare wheel well.

Also check your drains under the scuttle panel.

Failing that follow the sat nav shut down and disconnect the battery for 10 mins, cures a load if electrical gremlins on these cars.

Sounds classic of water where it shouldn't be.

Yip, as above or worth checking the earth points are secure and free from rust and water too. Check battery is OK as a duff battery can also throw up odd things.
