Dead battery. It happens! Not a problem, it's an Interstate battery and the warranty is with the manufacturer of the battery.ROCKCENTER said:WTF !!!

On mine, the radio remains active and on until the key is removed (then the radio displays "GOODBYE" and powers off. I wouldn't leave the key in the ignition, even in the off position. Not very secure either...:no:AZRED said:I usually leave the key in the ignition in the off position. When I went to start it today I just got the clicking sound and no turnover. I put a charger on it and after about 5 minutes it started. Maybe there some current passed through the system when the key is left in the switch? I am leaving the key out now and will see what happens.
It does turn off when you take the key out, but the radio still has power.raggedy1 said:this is the first car I've ever owned where you can listen to the radio without having the key in the ignition. i don't know why they wired it this way, but they did!
