THIS IS A 3 MONTH OLD CAR AND PURCHASED THE SUV NEW, AND THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCKS AND WINDOW SWITCHED STOPPED WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER UNDER WARRANTY REPAIRS AND THE DEALER WANTED TO CHARGE $80 TO LOOK AT THE PROBLEM. SO I END UP FIXING THE PROBLEM MYSELF IN WHICH I REPLACED A FAULTY SWITCH. NOW MY CAR'S DOME LIGHT DOES NOT WORK. ALSO AFFECTED IS THE MEMORY FOR THE CLOCK OR RADIO. THE REMOTE KEYLESS ALSO STOPPED WORKING. ALL OF THIS HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME. THE CAR OBVIOUSLY HAS PROBLEMS AND THE DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME JUST FOR LOOKING AT IT. *LA
