Description of the problem	I am now going on my 3rd incident with this problem! I lose all lights and gauges on my dashboard. Heat turns off and most importantly, my ignition turned off on me and made a grinding sound and i had to pull over. Each time i had cars behind me and thankfully neither i nor the car behind me were injured. All the lights flicker and gauges go all the way down to where i can not tell how fast i am going. My most recent incident was on february 28th, 2015, i was at a stop sign and when it was my turn to go my lights flickered for a second then all gauges went down and the grinding started, it was as if i was trying to drive on neutral, so i then moved to the side because i had a car behind me and the car stopped. I shut it off completely and waited a few minutes before turning it back on. I drive on the expressway 60 miles a day to and from work, i am scared of causing an accident. I took my car previously to auto zone to see why my engine light is on and they checked it and gave me a code of u1411. I looked it up and it has to do with the ignition recall that was sent to me about my car. I have also called a few dealers to see if the part is in and was told no. I have a 5 year old daughter and i'm scared to have her in the car with me because of this! I need for something to be done asap!
