Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A NEW 2008 BUICK LUCERNE AND UNABLE TO READ INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES ESPECIALLY SPEED, GAS, ETC DURING DAYLIGHT PERIODS WITH BRIGHT SUN AND/OR HAZY WHEN AUTO RUNNING LIGHTS ARE ON. DRIVER IS UNABLE TO OBSERVE THE AUTO'S SPEED, AMOUNT OF FUEL AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS ON PANEL. THIS IS CAUSED BY THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEING INSTALL TO FAR BACK INTO THE CONSOLE , THEREFORE IN DEEP SHADOW . ALSO THERE IS NO BACK LIGHTING WHEN THE AUTO RUNNING LIGHTS ARE ON. THIS IIS A MAJOR SAFETY DAY TIME CONCERN AS DRIVER IS UNABLE TO PROPER JUDGE HIS SPEED AS WELL AS BEING ABLE TO OBSERVE OTHER INSTRUMENT PANEL MONITORS. *TR
