Consumer Description

THE DASHBOARD PANEL GOES "BLACK" AND ALL INSTRUMENTATION FAILS AND THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME THREE TIMES SINCE I HAVE HAD THE CAR. THEN SECOND TIME AT ABOUT 115000 AND THEN AGAIN AT APPROX 129500. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE CAR IS NOT LEGALLY DRIVABLE AS THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW EXACT SPEED ETC. THIS TYPE OF FAILURE IS NOT UNCOMMON I HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY REPAIR SHOPS AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED TO VERIFY THE REAL UNREPORTED BY OWNERS TIMES IT HAS OCCURRED. IT IS A VERY POTENTIAL NOT TO MENTION EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR BOTH IN TIME AND DOLLARS, OUT OF SERVICE APPROX. 10 DAYS AND COSTS OVER $1,150.00 UNTIL TODAY WHEN I HEARD ABOUT YOUR SITE I DID NOT KNOW IT EXISTED OR I WOULD HAVE REPORTED EACH INCIDENT AS IT HAPPENED. NOTE INCIDENT DATE ABOVE INACCURATE BUT IT WAS THE ONLY DATE THE COMPUTER WOULD INPUT SO THAT IS WHY IT IS WHAT IT IS. *TR
