Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE DOWN THE HIGHWAY, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS STARTED LIGHTING UP AND THE GAUGES APPEARED TO STALL IN A RANDOM PLACE, THEN RESET. I WASN'T SURE IF THE CAR WAS STALLING OR IF IT WAS JUST AN ELECTRICAL GLITCH. THIS WAS A DISTRACTION AND TOOK MY ATTENTION OFF THE ROAD AS THE CHECK ENGINE/TIRE PRESSURE/LOW FUEL/ETC LIGHTS ALL LIT UP AT THE SAME TIME AND THE GAUGES APPEARED TO BE MALFUNCTIONING MOMENTARILY. WITHIN 15 SECONDS, EVERYTHING APPEARED TO BE OPERATING NORMALLY AGAIN. THE CAR NEVER STALLED OR LOST POWER, THE GAUGES JUST MADE IT APPEAR AS IF IT DID. I SCANNED THE CODES WITH THE CAR STILL RUNNING AFTER THIS INCIDENT AND THERE WERE NO CODES (PREVIOUS, CURRENT, PROCESSING). I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IF IT KEEPS DOING IT TO BRING IT BY BUT IF IT'S NOT ACTIVELY HAVING AN ISSUE THAT THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING FOR IT JUST YET (REQUESTED VIA PHONE TO INSPECT FOR LOOSE CONNECTIONS/GROUNDS AT THE LEAST).
