Consumer Description

2006 PT CRUISER, APPROX. 55,000 MILES. FIRST THE SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT FLASHES ON, THEN ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD COME ON. ALL MY GAUGES DROP EXCEPT THE FUEL GAUGE. THE SPEEDOMETER GAUGE MOVES UP AND DOWN AFTER DROPPING. IT FEELS LIKE POWER IS LOST TO THE ENGINE WHEN IT IS HAPPENING. WITHIN SECONDS, THE WARNING LIGHTS GO OUT AND THE GAUGES STABILIZE AND THINGS ARE NORMAL. SOMETIMES THIS HAPPENS ONLY ONCE WHILE DRIVING, OTHER DAYS IT HAPPENS 4-5 TIMES IN A ROW. I AM TOLD IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2006 MODEL. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL OR REPAIR THRU CHRYSLER? *TR
