Consumer Description
I RAN A QUICK ERRAND. WHEN I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND HEADLIGHTS CAME ON AS SOON AS I STARTED IT. THE WIPERS WOULDN'T TURN OFF UNLESS THE CAR WAS TURNED. THE LIGHTS WILL NOT COME ON UNLESS THE CAR IS ON, THE DASH LIGHTS DON'T WOK, AND THE SIGNALS DON'T WORK. I HAD TO DRIVE HOME THAT WAY IN PLENTY OF TRAFFIC. I FELT UNSAFE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, AS I HAD MY GRAND BABY WITH ME, AFTER READING SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS IDENTICAL TO MINE, HAPPENING AFTER 8 YEARS OF OWNING THE VEHICLES, MAKES IT SEEM THAT IT WAS DONE INTENTIONALLY BY THE MANUFACTURER TO GET IT BACK FOR REPAIR. *TR
