The dash guages and the lights flashed on/off then went out completely. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer and was told that the ignition switch was bad. At 33000K miles the consumer went to have the vehicle checked due to the transmission shifting rough and starting in second gear, and was told that the ignition had gone bad again.
