Consumer Description

THE INFORMATION DISPLAY HAS GONE BLACK. THE INFORMATION DISPLAY SHOWS SPEED, MILEAGE, FUEL LEVEL, TURN BLINKER STATUS, AND OTHER CRITICAL INFORMATION. THE SCREEN BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT DOES NOT AFFECT THE DISPLAY AND IS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE ISSUE CONTINUES WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY, ON CITY STREETS OR HIGHWAY, TURNING, OR BRAKING. I DO NOT KNOW THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE ISSUE BUT IT APPEARS TO INVOLVE ONBOARD COMPUTER COMPONENTS. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT NOR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY.
