Consumer Description

I OWN A 2002 PT CRUISER, WHICH WAS SUBJECT TO A RECALL CONCERNING THE DASH CLUSTER GAUGES. GAUGES FAILED ON ME CAUSING ME TO RUN OUT OF FUEL ON I-285 IN ATLANTA. TOOK VEHCILE IN FOR RECALL REPROGRAMING OF THE DASH CLUSTERS WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD 4000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THIS FAILURE OCCURRED AT 24000 MILES. I HAVE BEEN WAITING OVER TWO WEEKS FOR THE DEALER TO OBTAIN THE PART NEEDED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. TODAY I WAS TOLD THAT THE PART HAS TO BE "BURNED" INTO THE DASH ORDER TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MOREOVER, THE SERVICE MANAGER WAYNE HAMMOND (770-216-9300) STATED THAT HE HAD A NUMBER OF CONSURMERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN RIDING AROUND WITH A GAS CAN IN MY VEHICLE FOR FEAR OF RUNNING OUT; WITHOUT DASH OR INTERIOR LIGHTS OR GAUGES. *AK
