I noticed a couple of things go funky in the R1S when parked on a steep incline. Curious if anyone else has encountered these?

1. When I was parked on a steep downhill, the tailgate would not close automatically when I pressed the button. Odd, since the force on the hydraulic is greatest when the car is level. Perhaps it registered that max pull part way down and mistook it for an obstruction?

2. When I was parked on a steep bank leaning to the left, the frunk would not close. Similar behavior.

3. I got a "wiper fluid low" message when parked on a steep downhill. Wondering if the reservoir drained in one direction? Never got the warning again after that.
