The instrument cluster failed and I was stranded and unable to operate my car. This failure disabled my ability to start my engine.

The instrument cluster goes on the blink and doesn't work efficiently. Since it provides false readings, the operator has to gauge speed, fuel capacity, and deal with emergency actions during engine failure while driving under heavy traffic conditions. This action is a sure cause for unsafe vehicle operation. The instrument cluster also disables the electrical system to keep the engine operating and causes the car to turn off unexpectedly. The gauge cluster was replaced twice within the life of the car. Once in 2002 and 2005. This is the third cluster gone bad.

Normal operation of the vehicle, including start up, running vehicle on fairly hot or cold days leads to a failure of the central digital of the display. Furthermore, the analog gauge cluster is not accurate, coolant gauge reads very hot erroneously at all times (though actually coolant temps determined by other means show that vehicle is at normal operating temperatures). Fuel gauge responds erratically, fails to accurately register amount of fuel left. Tachometer readings seem to fluxate occasionally in err.

Progressive failure of instrument cluster. Gas gage reading 3/4 of a tank higher than reality. I ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere. Tachometer and speedometer no longer work. Makes it tough to predict turbo lag. Low power before turbo kicks in around 2200 RPM makes it tough to predict acceleration of car from standing start (such as left turn across a busy road). Temperature gage reading higher than actual engine temperature. Unable to determine if engine may truly be overheating.
