What the hell, the dash instrumentation is possessed, it only comes on for 20 seconds when it feels like it. No reason for it, it could be off for months at a time.
I never really know how much gas I have, nor how fast going, nor temperature of the engine.It also effects the digital lighting for radio and clock.
I don't have a real grasp of the total millage, I just know its under well under 200,000 for a fact. We were quoted 800 dollars for the computer chip and only the chip. Crazy! how the hell do I get it smoged for registration? Can you say old fashion way of testing for oil, and fluids long before "smart dash" I love the minivan otherwise.

Dashboard display intermittently went dead. Dealer had no
clue - replaced clock spring (different issue). Although there is ample "buzz" out there concerning this problem, the dealer acted like they had no experience with this issue and said it would be $295.00 just to open up the dash and start trying to find the problem. Auto Electric professional said its probably a Body Control Module. Dodge has had so much trouble with this part that they will no longer sell one over the counter to anyone.
