Consumer Description

ALTERNATOR NOISE FEEDING THROUGH RADIO ON OCCASION AFTER TURNING VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTING NOISE APPEARS TO GO AWAY. FLICKING LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL AND RADIO, STARTED OUT OF A PARKING PLACE WITH THIS HAPPENING AND THE TRUCK MOVED 5 FEET BEFORE LOSING ALL POWER. TRUCK WOULD NOT START, NO LIGHTS OR ALARMS. LEFT KEY IN THE IGNITION AFTER 20 MINUTES ALL ALARMS AND LIGHTS RETURNED TO NORMAL AND TRUCK STARTED WITH 1 TURN OF THE KEY. CAN NOT TAKE THE TRUCK TO THE SHOP UNTIL IT IS MAKING THE NOISE AGAIN, BECAUSE THEY WILL TELL ME THAT THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THE TRUCK WOULD HAVE LOST POWER WHEN I WAS DOING 65 MILES AN HOUR ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK?*JB
