Consumer Description

IMMEDIATELY UPON STARTING MY CAR ... MY FUEL GAUGE WOULD FLASH ON AND OFF LIKE AS IF IT WAS LOW. I NOTICED THAT THE WEATHER WAS DAMP AND A FOG IN THE AIR. THE FUEL GAUGE WAS FLASHING WITH A HALF TANK OF GAS IN MY VEHICLE. UPON DRIVING OFF SLOWLY, MY REAR HATCH UNLATCHED AND MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS TURNED OFF. THIS OCCURRED 4-5 TIMES ... BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO GET MY TRUNK TO LATCH. ALTHOUGH I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY EVENTUALLY WITHOUT MY REAR HATCH UNLATCHING, MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS WERE COMPLETELY OFF.
