This complaint is about a 2006 Chevy HHR I have had the since new and have had the radio replaced three times (including the one that came with the car) the last time GM tried to charge me for a new radio. I feel they know they have problems with it and we (the consumer) should not have to buy another one from GM on Dec 3, 2007 I was driving on expressway I69 in Michigan with the radio off. As I was driving the radio suddenly made a loud pop (or what I call an explosion noise) the noise is so loud it can hurt your ears. The noise startled me so much I hit the brake and the car behind me almost rear-ended me. Since GM knows they have a problem with this, tells me there are plenty others out there with the same problem. I doubt GM will fix this problem which could result in an accident or death until the government makes them. Thank you
