Consumer Description
I WAS LEAVING A PARKING LOT AT THE MALL WITH MY BABY GIRL. I STARTED THE CAR AND STARTED TO DRIVE OUT OF THE PARKING GARAGE WHEN I REALIZED MY ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS OFF. I COULDN'T SEE MY SPEED LIMIT, BLINKERS, FUEL GAUGE, ETC... NOTHING WAS ON. I PANICKED AND PULLED OVER AS SOON AS IT WAS POSSIBLE FOR ME TO DO SO. I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF, THEN STARTED IT BACK UP, AND STILL NOTHING IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I THEN SHUT OFF ENGINE AGAIN, EXITED THE VEHICLE, AND PROCEEDED TO LOCK THE CAR. AT THIS POINT I HEARD EVERYTHING SHUT OFF COMPLETELY AND SO I GOT BACK IN AND STARTED THE CAR AGAIN. IT WORKED OKAY AFTER THAT.
