Consumer Description

AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND GOING ABOUT 35 MPH THE LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT ON AND ALL THE GAUGES WENT TO ZERO. I DIDN'T TOTALLY LOST POWER BUT SLOWED DOWN AND THE GAUGES POPPED BACK AND THE INSTRUMENT LIGHTS CAME BACK ON. IT HAS CONTINUED TO RUN OK FOR THE LAST 3 DAYS. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD NOTHING COULD BE DONE UNLESS THEY COULD DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS EXACT SAME THING OCCURRED ON SEPTEMBER 8, 2013 AT A MILEAGE OF ABOUT 39,100. THE CAR HAS RUN OK SINCE UP TO THIS LATEST INCIDENT ON JUNE 1, 2014. *TR
