Default Honda Odyssey problem

I apologize if this is the proper forum. I've been having problems with my
Honda Odyssey for quite some time and I wonder if anyone could help.

Here's the history:

When I first got the minivan, it was brand new from the dealer. We had the
dealer install an alarm. Very soon after, the alarm started arming and
locking the doors all by itself. Later, it started to turn itself on and
off. By that, I mean, sometimes, I use the keyfob to arm the car, but only
the locks would work, but the alarm would not turn on. Then, without
warning, it would turn itself on, and the alarm would work like it normally
should. Eventually, the car horn would beep when I was driving, the lights
would flash, the dashboard backlight would flash, the turn signals flashed.
All which would happen intermittently.

We got the alarm replaced. Just as soon as it was replaced, the alarm
started arming itself and locking the doors automatically on an intermittant
basis. I brought it back, and they replaced it again, this time with an
upgraded model (or so they told me). The same thing happened with the third
alarm. This time, the dealer adjusted the alarm so it was less sensitive.
It continued to be a problem.

I just got my vehicle back from the dealer. They said they disarmed the
alarm. They also did some maintenance. When I get home, the engine light
is on and the TCS light is on. I use the windshield wiper and it gets stuck
in the up position. With some jiggling of the controls, I was able to get
it back. I get back in my car and now only the engine light is on. The
windshield wiper problem appears to be intermittent, just like all the other
problems.

Does anyone know what's wrong with this car?
