Consumer Description

DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 TOYOTA ECHO. IT WAS REALLY HOT AFTERNOON AND STEREO MALFUNCTIONED. THE ELECTRICITY SURGED THROUGHOUT CAR, AND THROUGHOUT SPEAKERS. THIS HAPPENED EVEN AFTER SHE TURNED OFF THE AIR CONDITIONER, STEREO, AND VEHICLE .THERE WAS A BAD SMELL OF BURNT PLASTIC THAT REMAINED IN VEHICLE FOR ABOUT THREE DAYS. IT WAS APPARENT THAT IT WAS NOT THE STEREO FUSE BECAUSE THE CABIN LIGHT AND THE CLOCK WAS NOT WORKING. SHE WILL NOT KNOW FOR SURE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM UNTIL SHE HAS THE VEHICLE LOOKED AT. *AK
