Consumer Description

IT APPEARS THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO THE CAR RADIO HAS SHORTED OUT. IT EFFECTS THE SOUND TO THE BLINKER AS WELL AS TO THE RADIO. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT IT MAY HAVE OTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. IS THIS COVERED UNDER ANY KIND OF RECALL. I HAVE HEARD THAT THE WHOLE DASH COULD BE EFFECTED AND MY CAR JUST STOP RUNNING. THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I OPEN THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DOOR AND IT MADE A LOUD NOISE WHICH SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS SHORTING OUT. THE VEHICLE RUNS BUT AM VERY LEARY ABOUT TAKING IT ON A LONG TRIP. WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR SAYS THERE IS A MONTH WAIT!
