I fixed it! Swipe down for the cog, go to Advanced Features, Motions and Gestures, and turn off Double Tap to Turn On Screen. I just tested it in my pocket and it doesn't open the lock screen, and ultimately the swipe up that exposes the emergency call button.

Hmm did you happen to get a new case within the same timeframe? My guess is accidentally hitting the power button long enough, popping up the power menu and accidentally hitting sos on the screen when activated.

I don't know anyone with the same issue if it's software "Dead on arrival" may need to return and replace.
