Started having issues where all the electronics on the car go blank/dead. So far when this has happened it has not caused the car to be inoperable but in the meantime I have found that the car is leaking (seriously leaking) under the entire drivers seat was soaked. I noticed a while back that it smelled like mildew in the car, I had it cleaned and put a damp rid pouch in there, that basically absorbed in 2 days, but never could find the water. This week I found the water...under the drivers seat. This car has been leaking for 2 years! Last night, I get in the car and plug in my phone to charge and get a message of LIQUID DETECTED Charging is not available because liquid has been detected in the lightning connector. Disconnect to allow the connector to dry. At the same time the phone was plugged in everything started to crackle and squeal through the radio and then no radio at all. There is no way all these components are not damaged. Meanwhile I have take it to a dealer for them to do a "water test", I have zero confidence that this water test will yield any positive results and I am without a vehicle . So I am trying to get this info out anywhere I can to see if other people had similar issues and what can be done. It can not be safe to drive a car that the electronics have water damage.

TWO TIMES I HAVE HEARD A LOUD POP NOISE COMING THROUGH MY STEREO SPEAKERS. I NOTICED IT WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES. I WENT ON A TRAILBLAZER FORUM AND A FEW OTHERS HAD REPORTED THE SAME THING. I HEARD THE POP TODAY WHEN I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT AND APPLYING THE BRAKES.
