Consumer Description

AFTER THE IGNITION IS SHUT OFF WITH EITHER THE KEY IN OR OUT OF IGNITION, WHEN ANY DOOR IS OPEN THE RADIO IS SUPPOSED TO TURN OFF. PERIODICALLY THE RADIO WILL STAY OF EVEN AFTER THE DOOR IS OPENED. MOST TIMES, THE RADIO WILL GO OFF IF THE DOOR IS OPENED BACK UP, BUT THERE HAVE BEEN SOME TIMES THAT THE RADIO NEVER SHUTS OFF. THE SENSOR IS COMBINED INTO THE LOCK ASSEMBLY. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING FORUMS FOR ANY CHEVY, GMC, SATURN, OR OTHER GM MODELS AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. I ALSO HAVE A SATURN OUTLOOK THAT IS DOING THE SAME THING.
