Consumer Description

THE MAIN SCREEN OF THE CAR ATARTED LEAKING GLUE ALL OVER THE CAR AFTER SOME BUBBLES ATARTED TO APPEAR WHILE THE GPS STOPPER RANDOMLY WORKING, THE SCREEN WOULD PIXELATED AND RESTART BY ITSELF IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRIP. THE WORST PART IS THAT IT TOOK MORE THAN A MONTH TO GET IT REPLACED BECAUSE THEY HAD THE MCU AND SCREEN IN BACKORDER UNTIL I FINALLY HAD TO PAY $1200 FOR SOMETHING THAT EVERY SINGLE CAR OF THIS YEAR HAD GONE THROUGH THE SAME PROBLEM, NOT ONLY ME
