Description of the problem	I bought my nitro brand new in 2009 2 years later my radio would not turn off after car was shut off and door was open. I had to pull the fuse so my battery would not die. It also would shift off and on when ever it felt like while driving. I took it to dealership and they flashed it but it only mad it worse. Now if the fuse was in i would be driving and i'll of a sudden my whole dash would light up and my gauges would start going back and forth out of control and my windshield wipers would turn on. I took the fuse out in 2010 and still have not had a radio in my nitro since.
