IN NOVEMBER 2004 I PURCHASED THE ARMADA 2004. I DROVE IT TO FLORIDA IN DECEMBER 2004 AND LEFT IT IN MY HOUSE. I LEFT WITH THE MILITARY UNTIL JUNE 2005, I DROVE THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL JULY 2005, IN WHICH, ONE MORNING I TRY TO TURN IT ON, THE VEHICLE DID NOT START AND IT SOUNDED LIKE THE BATTERY OR STARTER WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE BATTERY GAGE WENT FROM HALF WAY TO THE NEGATIVE SIDE AND THEN BACK TO THE MIDDLE AND ONCE AGAIN TO THE NEGATIVE SIDE AGAIN.

TODAY I TOOK 2004 ARMADA THROUGH A TOUCH LESS CAR WASH AS I HAVE DONE MANY TIMES BEFORE. THE UPPER REAR HIGH MOUNT BRAKE LIGHT HOUSING, ACTUALLY A BODY PART OF THE VEHICLE, CAME OFF DURING THE EXITING OF THE CAR WASH. THIS HAPPENED WHEN THE BLOWER BLEW THE WATER OFF THE ARMADA AND BLEW THIS HOUSING DOWN ONTO THE REAR WINDOW. UPON INSPECTION THE PLASTIC RIVETS THAT HOLD THE HOUSING IN PLACE HAD SHEERED OFF, AND THE WIND BLEW THE UNIT DOWN ONTO THE WINDOW. THE UNIT CAME DOWN WITH ENOUGH FORCE TO BREAK THE BACK WINDOW AND DID INFECT SCRATCH IT. …
