Description of the problem	Dash board gauges and controls. When driving our 2005 montego all of the dash instruments and gauges will go out, and you loose some power, the rear lights go on. This can happen at any moment when the vehicle is in motion, on the interstate, slow speeds. To replace is quite expensive, but in doing some research i have come across thousands of complaints on the same issue, and it's extremely scary and concerning that a safety recall has not been done. You can turn it off but doesn't always reset and when it does the engine light stays on. This occurs while the car is in motion.
