Vehicle experienced failure of the recall component (00V-105) prior to recall notification, consumer requesting reimbursement, repair due to the water damage to the module.
Odometer/ speedometer/ techometer and signal light for the air bag stopped working. All the wirnig connections were checked and tightened by the dealership, which solved the problem for a while. Because this happened intermittently, dealer was not able to fix problem. When the owner hits the dash very hard everything returns to normal.
When driving the cruise control kicked on, and it came on/off. Whenever it wanted to. Also, the air bag sensor light came on, and the light came on and off whenever it wanted. In addition, speedodmeter didn't work, and the consumer had the vehicle in the shop four times for the air bag sensor light. The vehicle is still in the shop and the dealer can't determine the problem. The dash board goes dead while driving because connectors were not seating properly. Fuse panel falls off and will not stay on at all because right kick panel is deformed.
