problem #1

Grand Vitara 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 40,000 miles
The wires at the back of the cigarette lighter melted. When the consumers brake assist was plugged into the cigarette lighter it burned up, because the wire was too thin and was unable to carry that type of load. Luckily the fuse did not blow out.
