THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC OR DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

WHILE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN, ENTIRE DASH CLUSTER ZEROS AND ALARMS GO OFF. ALL INSTRUMENTS THEN COME BACK ON EXCEPT ALARM STAYS ON . CAN ONLY SILENCE ALARM BY UNLATCHING SEAT BELT AND RE-LATCHING IT. THIS IS DANGEROUS ; ACTION MUST BE DONE WHILE VEHICLE IS ROLLING GENERALLY AT SPEED LIMIT. CANNOT HAVE HANDS ON STEERING WHEEL AND DISCONNECT SEAT BELT AND RECONNECT IT. REPORTED PROBLEM TO MANUFACTURER MONTHS AGO THEY SAY THEY ARE WORKING ON IT. ALSO ON SAME VEHICLE, CONSTANT STEERING IS REQUIRED. STEERING IS LOOSE WHILE ROLLING DOWN ROAD. MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDED CERTAIN TIRE PRESSURES AND ALIGNMENT CHECK WHEN VEHICLE IS LOADED. I HAVE DONE THIS AND PROBLEM IS THE SAME. I HAVE CHECKED FORUMS
