Consumer Description

THE INTERIOR LIGHTING ON THE RADIO AND OTHER COMPONENTS WENT OUT. IT IS DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE FAN AND OTHER BUTTONS ARE IN THE DARK. I SHOULD NOT NEED TO USE A FLASHLIGHT TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO CLEAR FOG FROM THE WINDOWS. IF I HAVE A RELATED ACCIDENT MY INSURANCE COMPANY WOULD CONSIDER IT MY FAULT EVEN THOUGH IT IS A DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING DEFECT. *KB
