Engine shuts off while idling sometimes and the radio and/or alarm will come on after the key is out

I had the lock mechanism changed on my door and since then, I have had weird things happening. My car will be idling at a light and all power will drop. It will start right back up, no problem. Also, sometimes when I take the key out of the ignition, the radio will go back on and I have to put the key back in and turn it on and off to get the radio to go off. Lastly, sometimes the alarm will go off after the key is taken out of the ignition.
