ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:INTERIOR/UNDER DASH
THE DASHBOARD GAUGES TOTALLY WENT OUT... FIRST, THE GAUGES WOULD POP ON AND OFF RIGHT AFTER I STARTED THE CAR AND PROCEEDED TO WORK OFF AND ON FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS. IT COMPLETELY STOPPED COMING ON AFTER ABOUT 4 WEEKS. NOW, I CANNOT TELL MY SPEED, HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE IN THE TANK, HOW MANY MILES THE ODOMETER HAS, OR THE TEMP. EVERY GAUGE ON THE DASH DOES NOT WORK AT ALL--- WHICH IS VERY FRUSTRATING. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF $300. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT A NUMBER OF MITSUBISH MIRAGES HAVE BEEN BROUGHT IN FOR THE SAME REASON AS MINE. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON SUCH A FAILURE, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS TRUE OR NOT. ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU.*AK
