Hi. i file a complaint several years ago about their entertainment radio system freezing up intermittently. happening now my radio after i turn it off will turn back on to the first am setting saved even though i did not use it. after i turn it off the display shows the am lit up as white not blue and it will turn back on repeatedly for a few more times before completely staying off. this has happened now 3 times
When you are driving down the road and get in a curve the wheels lock up like you are on ice or hydroplaining and have no control of vehicle. only happens in curves and i know of multiple trucks doing this - if another car is coming from other direction you will hit them as you cant control truck
