Consumer Description

WE LEASED A 2013 BUICK ENCLAVE IN DEC. 2012. EVER SINCE WE'VE HAD THE VEHICLE WE HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE ENTERTAINMENT/NAVIGATION CENTER. THE UNIT SHORTS OUT WHEN WE ARE BACKING UP THE VEHICLE, USUALLY WHEN WE ARE GOING BACK AND FORTH TO PARK IN OUR GARAGE. SOMETIMES IT SHUTS DOWN WITH A LOUD "POP" WHICH IS VERY UNSETTLING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE BACKUP CAMERA SHUTS DOWN AS WELL. WE HAVE TO RESTART THE SYSTEM BEFORE IT WORKS AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES A MONTH AND SOMETIMES SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK.
