“There was a sonic boom explosion of noise from the radio / speakers followed by very loud static. I would estimate the db level to be 150 plus. Left my ears ringing for hours followed by aching and there has to be some permanent damage. I had driven the truck for 45 minutes. Using radio on about level 5 when I parked turned the vehicle off and exited. After a 90 minute appointment I reentered the pickup and when I pressed start the explosion of noise happened. The level was so intense and loud I was temporarily disoriented and confused. …”

“I get into the truck and push the start button, a very loud explosive ear piercing sound comes out of every speaker at full volume. It sounded like a canon shot out all my windows, a huge POP sound followed by scratching crackling sounds coming from the speakers. I tried turning down the volume to no avail, I turned off the audio but the loud scratching sound kept going at a very loud volume. The scratching sound went on for about 2 minutes then shut off. My ears were ringing and I was in a lot of ear pain due to the loud POP noise, it felt like my ear drums were blown out. …”
