Description of the problem	I previously sent in a complaint but there have been developments and i needed to explain more clearly. Our toyota has less than 18,000 miles and has been very well taken care of. Despite this, our vehicle has not been in operation since earlier this month. It started by flashing warning lights 2 weeks ago and then wouldn't start up. Saturday when i opened the driver door to get something out of the inoperable vehicle, this initiated a very lengthy terrible sound coming from under hood on driver's side. It sounded like something would explode under the hood. This horrible process appearantly drained the whole battery. It has absolutely no signs of life now. All of this happened while the vehicle was stationary.
