Typical electrical symptoms owners report

  • On startup, the sound system emits a sudden loud pop followed by continuous static or crackling from all speakers, sometimes with the horn blaring on its own.
  • Some owners report ringing in their ears or hearing damage after the extreme volume spike, with the noise stopping only after opening a door or disconnecting the battery.
  • The backup brake assist system was reported as non-functional, which one owner said led to a low-speed crash into a post.
  • Two separate complaints describe the truck catching fire while parked and unattended, with no prior warning signs, in one case destroying the vehicle and damaging nearby property.
  • One owner reported the truck losing power and dropping into a low power mode during driving.
