| Description of the problem | Main lcd screen that shows the speed of the vehicle goes black at random when i am driving and the only way to get it to come back on is to stop and turn off the vehicle and turn it back on. I was stopped by a police officer for speeding because i could not tell how fast i was going. I told him about the display and he was going to tow the vehicle because i did not have an operational speedometer. I have told chrysler about this and apparently it is a known issue and they are working on it!! These vehicles' should all be taken to the dealers and parked and not driven until the defect has been corrected and customers should be given rental cars. |
