Consumer Description

AT FIRST THE RADIO WOULD MAKE A LOUD POP AND THEN WOULD STOP WORKING. IF YOU SHUT CAR OFF THE RADIO WOULD COME BACK ON. IT DID THIS RANDOMLY FOR A MONTH. THE NEXT MONTH THE RADIO WOULD MAKE EAR PIERCING BURST OF SOUNDS WHILE RADIO WAS PLAYING THEN RADIO SHUT OFFF. THE EAR PIERCING SOUND WOULD LITERALLY SCARE THE BEJEEBERS OUT OF YOU. THE LOUD CRAZY BLASTS FROM THE RADIO COULD DEFINITELY CAUSE YOU TO HAVE A ACCIDENT SINCE IT JUST HAPPEN RANDOMLY AN VERY UNEXPECTEDLY. NOW MY RADIO WILL NOT COME ON AT ALL BUT THE SPEAKERS STILL MAKE NOISES WITH THE RADIO OFF EVEN WITH THE CAR OFF WITH NO KEYS IN THE CAR. IT HAS CAME ON SO MUCH IT IS RUNNING MY BATTERY DOWN. TODAY I PULLED THE RADIO FUSE TO HOPEFULLY KEEP MY BATTERY FROM DIEING. THE RADIO NOISES HAPPEN AT ALL TIMES DRIVING, STATIONARY AND WHILE CAR WAS TURNED OFF.
