Consumer Description

It was a hundred degree day when this incident first occurred. When I turned the car on after 5 seconds, the speaker started to make a loud static noise that got unbearably loud, and it spread from speaker to speaker, until all the speakers in the car were blaring a staticky sound. It didn't matter if my phone was plugged in, or if the radio was on, or if the sound system was turned off, it continued to make the sound. I turned off the car and turned it back on and it immediately started again. It didn't matter if I was parked or if I was driving, it would make the noise. Eventually, this sound got louder and louder, and then the speakers stopped working altogether, no radio or music sound would come on. I turned the car off, then back on, and the static noise came back. It happened again the next day (another 100 degree day) and so I had a mechanic look at the car the next day when it was slightly cooler, and he could not replicate the problem. The speakers went back to normal the next couple times that I turned on the car. I have a video that recorded the static noise.
