Consumer Description
After driving vehicle for about 40 mins from last parked location, i slowed to take a left hand turn, engaged blinker, accelerated while proceeding to turn left. the steering wheel jerked to the Right and sounded an audible "ding" and door locks engaged. upon driving an additional estimated 100 feet, the entire system shut down. (i happened to be turning into a parking lot where there was a car parts store in town) no power at all, nothing on the display panel, all doors remained locked and i was locked inside the vehicle. i placed the gear shift into Park and tried unlocking the doors, which would not unlock due to no power. taking the key out of the ignition and reinserting it and tried to start did nothing. after a few more failed attempts, the interior lights and display screen flashed (glitchy blinking) and after a few more attempts, when the key was turned to the run position I finally had normal power. the doors finally unlocked. seemed as if the system rebooted itself and i had power and was able to start the vehicle. the dash panel showed a message to roll down the drivers side window, then showed a message to roll up the drivers side window. after i followed the prompts, everything returned to normal. i went into the parts store and had them hook up to a code scanner, which did not show any codes, the battery, alternator, and starter were also checked and were fine. i was able to drive home with no problem. I am afraid to drive my truck because i do not want this to happen when driving at a higher rate of speed. I was fortunate to be turning into a parking lot when the event happened. I am fearful of this happening again and causing an accident.
