Consumer Description

ALL GAUGES( SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, TEMP, AND FUEL) MALFUNCTION PERIODICALLY AT THE SAME TIME. SOMETIMES THIS RESULTS IN THE GAUGES PEGGING OUT OR JUST NOT WORKING AT ALL. THE FREQUENCY WITH WHICH THIS OCCURS INCREASES DAILY. THE SPEEDOMETER DOESN'T REALLY EVER FUNCTION PROPERLY AT THIS POINT. I FEEL THIS MALFUNCTION IS CAUSE FOR A RECALL BECAUSE IN DOING SOME RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON MULTIPLE ONLINE FORUMS INDICATING THIS EXACT SAME MALFUNCTION. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY FORMAL COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILED REGARDING THIS PROBLEM, BUT FROM WHAT I WAS ABLE TO FIND I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. *TR
