Consumer Description

The antenna cover completely came off, nothing hit it, it just fell off. I know there is a technical bulletin SA272 for the 2016MY Optima for the exact same reason. My radio no longer works as it displays antenna error and I have lost all AM Radio usage and FM Radio is barely clear. I’m afraid this could cause an electrical issue now that the wiring and circuitry for the antenna is now exposed.
