PCM/tcm replaced twice as well as ignition in conjunction with this problem. Now I am told the instrument cluster panel is in failure as well. PCM reprogrammed several times prior to replacement a second time. Car has been in internal failure off and on, I never know when it would give out on me. Car at dealership now for the 7th time in 3 months.
