Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK THIS MORNING MY RADIO WENT OFF AND ON AND SCREEN TURNED BLACK. I DROVE A LITTLE FURTHER TO FIND A PLACE TO PULL OFF WHEN MY DASH BOARD LITE UP WITH EVERYTHING MALFUNCTIONING LIGHT AND THEN WENT BLACK. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON EVERYTHING APPEARED TO BE ALRIGHT. AS I CONTINUED ON TO WORK THE RADIO STARTED GOING ON AND OFF AGAIN. I HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM WITH THE WATER LEAK AND IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED AS OF YET. I AM THINKING THAT MAYBE DUE TO THE WATER LEAK FROM THE DOME LIGHTS AND FIRE WALL MAY HAVE GOTTEN INTO THE ELECTRICAL AREA. PLEASE YOU REALLY NEED TO LOOK INTO THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT OR WORSE. I HAVE MY FAMILY IN THIS VEHICLE REGULARLY INCLUDING MY 2 YEAR OLD GRANDSON AND 10 MONTH OLD GRANDDAUGHTER. THEY ARE MY LIFE AND I DO NOT WANT ANYTHING TO HAPPEN TO THEM. *TR
