“I was driving my car in town and all of a sudden the dash cluster quit working. I was driving about 30 MPH on a small town city street. When I took my car to the dealership for repair they said that is a very common problem. If it is a very common problem they took a week to get the parts because they can't make them to repair the cars as the dash clusters are failing.”
