Example complaints

“I have been having issues with the wireless control module for quite sometime. It came to a head this past tuesday 3/24 when my vehicle would not start--had to have vehicle towed twice due to issues with control module. This experience the past year has been frustrating. Doors locked by themselves when the car is shut off; there are times when the windows would come down by themselves due to issues with control module. I am unable to use my key even after changing the battery.”
