Consumer Description

TOUCH SCREEN GOES BLACK, LOSE SOUND, RANDOMLY LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING, CAR COMPLETELY STALLS AT STOP AS WELL AS WHILE DRIVING, STEERING WHEEL LOCKS WHILE DRIVING GOING STRAIGHT OR IN THE MIDDLE OF TURN, ALL THIS HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES DOESN'T MATTER HOW FAR AND HOW LONG, NO TRIGGER HAS BEEN FOUND, DEALERSHIP CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. CAR WILL LOCK KEY IN THE IGNITION AND WILL NOT RELEASE FOR A WHILE AND NO ELECTRICITY WORKS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND CAR WAS RELEASED BACK TO ME BECAUSE NO ISSUE WAS FOUND. TESTING WAS DONE AND FOUND NO ISSUES WITH MY CAR. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW MONTHS
