- Mazda CX-5 Touring w/bose-tech
ok, the title is a bit of a pun, but there's some truth in it...
for quite some time now, whenever i get out of my cx5 i get a shock when i reach for the door or brush it, i got a harsh static shock, at first i thought it was a winter/dry air thing, but its still happening, even on short trips of just a few miles....anyone else having this?
my wifes doesn't seem to do it
and these aren't little rubbing feet on carpet earlobe zaps, these are strong, and loud, a very sharp 'crack' when it happens, wife has heard it on occasion too from other side of car...
i'm beginnin to wonder if maybe somethin is shorted out in the seat and leaking voltage into the seat and imparting a charge to me, that grounds out when i touch door frame while i'm getting out (or perhaps the entire car is, and its just going to ground thru me?
man, it sounds even crazier now that i've typed it out, but its whats happening...
