Consumer Description

THE ISSUE STARTED WITH MY BACK HATCH OPENING ON ITS OWN AT RANDOM TIMES. FOUND OUT THIS WAS CAUSED BY WATER ENTERING THE LIFT SWITCH. THAT PROBLEM LEAD TO THE BATTERY EVENTUALLY GOING BAD AND THEN THE HEADLIGHTS BEING BLOWN DUE THE BAD BATTERY. NOT SURE HOW WATER GOT IN THE BACK HATCH RUINING THE SENSOR BUT THIS IS COSTING ME ABOUT $1000 TO FIX.
