Component:
audio unit
On certain vehicles, the capacitor on the audio circuit board is damaged due to the inadequate manufacturing process of the circuit. If left unfixed, the capacitor may get short-circuited, causing excessive current to flow through the speakers, and in the worst case, this could result in a fire.
Correction:
The audio unit should be replaced with a non-defective one.
