| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: incident #3 this is the third time my car instrument panel did this under 25,000 miles. i was driving down the road and i can see that i am actually moving but none of my instruments are. none of them move all the while the car door ajar lights are on so after checking the doors 3-4 times i just drove on as they were clearly closed . fueled up the car and restarted. instruments all a go .sometimes it takes overnight before the panel works again. airbag light has been on for 6 months and check engine light is always popping on and off . how will i know if the van is really is danger of breaking down , or perhaps running out of gas as this van has cried wolf too many times .i will never know if a problem really exist . i consider this a major safety issue . i have received an airbag recall, so that's one down but when will they recall the whole instrument panel it is either shutting completely down or popping up check engine light . i have taken this car in for this check engine light several times. they just say " maybe you didn't put the lid on the gas tank right" . so at one time that lid was replaced. i am not under warranty any longer but i don't like the idea of driving down the interstate with 4 kids and not knowing how fast iam going or if i am running out of gas. like i said before the instrument panel just not working at all is a major defect . iam not sure but i think the system is corrupt. planning to trade if action is not taken in the near future. i pay for a reliable car and that's not what iam getting . i hope there are others who have had this experience so that the instrument panel will be recalled. *tr |
