Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY 2006 FORD 500, GOING ABOUT 58 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN EVERYTHING ON THE DASH WENT OUT -- SPEEDOMETER WENT TO ZERO; GAS TO EMPTY, ETC., AND THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS FRIGHTENED THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE CONTROL OF THE CAR. NOW, BY RESEARCHING ON THE INTERNET, I FIND THIS IS FAIRLY COMMON. MY DEALER QUOTED ME ABOUT $700 FOR PARTS & LABOR TO FIX IT, YET MANY OF THE ANECDOTAL ACCOUNTS ON THE INTERNET SAY IT NEVER OCCURRED AGAIN. THIS SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT THE COMPANIES ARE AWARE OF, IT PRESENTS A SAFETY RISK, AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR
