Consumer Description

GAUGES DROP OFF INTERMITTENTLY (SOMETIMES WHEN HIT A BUMP, OTHER TIMES ON IT'S OWN). TACH AND SPEEDOMETER DROP TO ZERO, AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. TAPPING ON PANEL, LIGHTS WILL GO OFF, THEN COME BACK ON. VERY SPORADIC WHEN IT HAPPENS--EVERY DAY FOR A WEEK OR TWO, THEN NOTHING FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS, THEN FOR 3 DAYS, ETC., ETC. ALSO LOSE MILEAGE INDICATOR (HOW MANY MILES WERE REALLY ON IT WHEN I PURCHASED IT NEW?!?!?!) SEEN SO MANY COMPLIANTS NOW FROM CONSUMERS, WOULD LIKE A RECALL!!! WILL MY AIRBAG WORK? DON'T WANT TO KILL ANYONE TO FIND OUT!!*AK
