Consumer Description

SEALS AROUND THE CONVERTIBLE TOP LEAK WHEN DRIVING IN HEAVY RAIN. WATER RUNS DOWN INTO THE DASHBOARD AND CAUSES INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS SUCH AS DASH LIGHTS TURNING ON AND OFF AND RADIO/STEREO/CD MALFUNCTION. THE PROBLEM WAS REPAIRED ONCE BY THE DEALER AND THE RADIO/CD UNIT REPLACED ANOTHER TIME BECAUSE OF LEAK PROBLEMS. NOW THE PROBLEM HAS RETURNED WITH WATER ON THE DASH AND FLOORBOARDS AND THE RADIO HAS AGAIN MALFUNCTIONED. *NLM
