The instrumentation panel loses it's luminosity when the brake is pressed. This causes vital instrumentation such as the odometer, tachometer, engine temperature and fuel guages to become almost impossible to read. I contacted the Ford corporation and they stated that this defect was normal, and that the problem is inherent within all Cougar.
