Consumer Description

MANY WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD COME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY FOR NO APPARENT REASON. USUALLY THE LIGHTS FLASH OFF AND ON. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH THE AUTO CHECKED BY A GARAGE SERVAL TIMES BUT THE VEHICLE INDICATES THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WHEN TESTED BY A TECHNICIAN. THIS PROBLEM HAS CAUSED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE CAR. WHEN AN OIL CHANGE SHOP LEFT THE LID TO THE COOLANT SYSTEM OPEN I DID NOT RECOGNIZE THERE WAS A PROBLEM UNTIL I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND SAW STEAM COMING FROM THE ENGINE, IE MANY DASHBOARD LIGHTS WERE FLASHING NOT JUST THE ONE FOR COOLANT SYSTEM. THE PROBLEM IS LIKE BOY WHO FALSELY CALLED "WOLF" TOO OFTEN.
