Consumer Description
ALL WARNING LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT CLUSTER TURNED ON AND THERE WAS A CONSTANT CHIME. FUEL GAGE DROPPED TO EMPTY, I DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH GAS I HAD. THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER NO LONGER WORKED, I HAD NO IDEA HOW FAST/SLOW I WAS GOING. WINDSHIELD WIPERS STAYED ON CONSTANTLY, IN THE OFF POSITION, EVENTUALLY DESTROYING MY BLADES. HEADLIGHTS STAYED ON CONSTANTLY IN THE OFF POSITION AND BLINKERS WOULD NOT FUNCTION AT ALL. HORN WOULD RANDOMLY GO OFF AND DOORS WOULD LOCK & UNLOCK. AC BLEW HOT. IT KIND OF FELT LIKE MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. I COULD SMELL STRONG FUMES FROM THE EXHAUST. I FIRST REPLACED THE TIPM AND SOME OF THE PROBLEMS WERE FIXED, BUT NOT ALL. I THEN REPLACED THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND ALL PREVIOUS UNRESOLVED ISSUES, WERE RESOLVED. WHEN THE PROBLEMS FIRST STARTED HAPPENING, IT ONLY HAPPENED OCCASIONALLY. IT HAPPENED AT RANDOM TIMES, DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS OR STREETS OR SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. AFTER A FEW MONTHS IT WAS CONSTANT AND WOULD START AS SOON AS VEHICLE WAS STARTED.
