“Pcm has been causing problems. I first lost my speedometer with no idea how to fix it. Intermittent gas gage problems, and now vehicle cuts out while driving. Mechanic has ruled out plugs and wires, coils, ignition control and more. Now, I must go to the dealership with it. This recall is listed on 2004”
NHTSA complaint #10984588, filed 2017-05, 200,000 miles“On, thursday, july 9th 2005, I tried to start my vehicle, it started but the ignition seemed to keep trying to start. None of the start up lights worked (oil, brake, service engine, seat belt), so I knew something was wrong. I turned the engine off and tried restarting it and it wouldn't start. I kept trying to start it for about 10 minutes. I finally gave up and went inside. I came back out and tried to start it again about 15 minutes later and it started up just fine and everything was working inside. On monday, july 13th 2005, I tried to start it and nothing happened. …”
