| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The gauge cluster panel is shrouded which makes it hard to see the gauges during the late day hours or dim light days because the gauges are not illuminated. they only illuminate when the headlights turn on automatically (or if you turn them on). i think the headlight sensor is mis-programmed, because it seems to routinely activate too late, but on one occasion it activated when it was just getting dim, weird. the running lights only illuminate the front running lights, not rear tail lights, making it dangerous under dim lit conditions. also the speedometer is not centered in the shrouded panel because they made it symmetrical with a matching tachometer (rpm) gauge. who really cares about a tachometer on an automatic vehicle? i want to see the speed that i am traveling. also, if you tilt the steering wheel up at one set point you cant even see the gauges depending on how tall you are. *nm |
