Consumer Description

IN DECEMBER OF 2013 I WAS PLAYING MUSIC IN MY VEHICLE, ( 2008, BUICK LUCERNE) THE BATTERY GOT GO DRAINED. THE THING THAT SURPRISED ME WAS THE FACT THAT AFTER, THE BATTERY WAS DRAINED THE IGNITION CEASED. I COULDN'T MOVE THE KEY UP/DOWN OR IN/OUT OF THE IGNITION. I THINK THAT THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY SERIOUS IF I HAD LOST POWER ON THE HIGH WAY. (ALTERNATOR OR BATTERY) WHEN AAA CAME ON THE SCENE AS SOON AS THEY HOOKED UP MY VEHICLE TO A PORTABLE BATTERY AND, TURNED IT ON THE KEY WAS RELEASED IMMEDIATELY. *TR
