Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS DIMMING WHILE DRIVING SINCE THE BEGINNING, THE DEALERSHIP HAS SEVERAL TIMES WORKED ON THE PROBLEM, WHICH I THINK HAS CLEARED UP..SO FAR. NOW MY SPEEDOMETER HAS STARTED MESSING UP, IT SAYS I AM GOING 50 WHILE PARKED AND 120 WHILE DRIVING. I ONLY DRIVE SHORT DISTANCES AND MOSTLY INTO AND BACK FROM TOWN 6 MILE ONE WAY. I HAVE 50,969 MILES ON MY 2004 VEHICLE, I KEEP ITS CHECKUPS AND OIL CHANGES REGULARLY: DEALERSHIP HAS RECORDS. I FEEL THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD ELECTRICAL ISSUES FROM DAY ONE, I SEE TURN SIGNAL AND BRAKELIGHT ISSUES IN RECALL SO I DON'T BELIEVE I AM WRONG ABOUT THIS. THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME OVER $400 TO CHANGE THE "CLUSTER" AS THE ECONOMY GOES, I TOO CANNOT AFFORD THIS KIND OF CHARGES ON AN ITEM THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE ISSUES. ESPECIALLY WHEN I TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT AND REALLY HAS LOW MILEAGE AND WEAR AND TEAR (PERFECT CONDITION). *TR
