Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH AND NOTICED MY REAR LOCKER LIGHT ON MY DASH AND SWITCH. THIS SHOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE, I DO NOT HAVE A TAZER AND "FAT FINGERING" THE SWITCH IN 2H WOULD ONLY CAUSE A MESSAGE SAYING YOU MUST BE IN 4L. ANYWAY, I INSTINCTIVELY HIT THE ALL OFF BUTTON AND THE LIGHT STARTED TO FLASH. I HEADED FOR THE NEAREST OFF RAMP. WHEN I SLOWED DOWN, THE LIGHT WENT OFF. I ATTEMPTED TO TURN ON THE LOCKER, AND RECEIVED A MESSAGE ABOUT NEEDING TO BE IN 4L SEEMS LIKE A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE IF ONE OR BOTH OF THE LOCKERS ENGAGE ON THEIR OWN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.
