“In january of 2006 the tachometer gauge started jumping around not reading correct, by clicking the ignition on and off with the car not running it would re-set. In the fall of 2012 the temperature gauge started and continues to read wrong. April 1st 2013, now the fuel gauge has stared turning counter clockwise and no longer works.”

“The inner ignition lock needs to be changed about every 60,000 miles. You can't turn the key over at all so obviously you can't start your car. This should be a recall, alot of other people have the same problem.”
