[quote:Anonymous Coward 1579668:MV8yMDcyMTc3XzM0ODc1NDQ4XzE2RjgyQ0I0] Happened to my wife last week - she was driving and had her phone connected to the blue tooth and heard a loud pop come through the radio, the instrument panel went dead and then booted back up and her phone did the same. 3 days ago my Navigation system screen started acting up and would not display. Had to turn off the car and turn it back on again several times to correct it. It's been working fine every since. And then yeaterday - same car, my driver's side door locks clicked while I was driving down the road and when I stopped the inside latch wouldn't let me open the door - had to roll down the window and pull the handle from the outside. Today it worked fine again. Bizarre [/quote]

Around 8:30 am this morning, I was driving my car, pulling into a gas station.
As I was turning off the main road into the gas station my radio made a real loud buzzing noise for about 3 seconds, I had a chill run across my skin, and then stopped the car.
I proceeded to text on my phone and it was flashing weird messages and sending messages to someone (blank messages) even though I hadn't written anything.
I tried to turn the power off on my phone also and it wouldn't shut off.
All of this happened at the same time, and the phone issue lasted approximately 10 minutes.
Has anyone else had this happen lately?
The loud buzzing, the chill, and my phone going crazy is weird and has never happened to me before. I am 42 years old and have been driving for a long time with a phone in my car.
Makes me wonder what was so strong to effect a radio, me, and my phone at once!
