A friend just told me that his pickup did the same thing....... he was by the side of the road trying to tell AAA where he was with a crappy cell signal when some nut on a bike wearing shorts and sandals stopped, saying "I've got tools, I've got tools". By the time he got done on the phone the guy left.
