Consumer Description
THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER GOES ON THE BLINK AND DOESN'T WORK EFFICIENTLY. SINCE IT PROVIDES FALSE READINGS, THE OPERATOR HAS TO GAUGE SPEED, FUEL CAPACITY, AND DEAL WITH EMERGENCY ACTIONS DURING ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING UNDER HEAVY TRAFFIC CONDITIONS. THIS ACTION IS A SURE CAUSE FOR UNSAFE VEHICLE OPERATION. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ALSO DISABLES THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO KEEP THE ENGINE OPERATING AND CAUSES THE CAR TO TURN OFF UNEXPECTEDLY. THE GAUGE CLUSTER WAS REPLACED TWICE WITHIN THE LIFE OF THE CAR. ONCE IN 2002 AND 2005. THIS IS THE THIRD CLUSTER GONE BAD. *TR
