I thought my key fob stopped working I took it to the dealership had it tested and they said it was fine. They said it had to be the wiring in my car for my alarm system. About 4 months ago I was going to get into my car. I put my key in the dot unlocked it pulled my door open and my car alarm started going off. I tried everything possible to get it to turn off. Finally after about 3 minutes it just stopped. Never happen again until a week ago. Same scenario. Then 2 days ago same scenario. I'm read online it's a common issue people have and I'm wondering if it's related to the car fire thing and wires shorting out.
Rear passenger side seat belt buckle will not latch/unlatch properly. When buckling, it won't latch without jiggling and reinserting several times. Latch won't always release when unbuckling. Vehicle is stationary when attempting to latch and unlatch. The fog lights do not function at all the antenna wiring is defective. Satalight radio will not pick up unless the brakes are used and then for just a moment the connection is made and the station can be heard although staticky and unclear. But only does it sometimes and when car is driving and the brakes are appiled.
