IN THE BEGINNING THE LIGHTS FOR THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BEGAN TO INTERMITTENTLY FLICKER BUT ONLY LASTED A FEW MINUTES. THE PROBLEM HAS PROGRESSED WORSE AND NOW THE SPEEDOMETER NO LONGER SHOWS. EVEN SO MORE THE PROBLEM NOW AFFLICTS THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND NO LIGHTS DISPLAY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I CANNOT SEE OR DISCERN CERTAIN VEHICLE INFORMATIONS, ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS OR AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE INFORMATION IS NO LONGER VISIBLE. THE ISSUE PERSISTS WHETHER THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR MOVING. BUT HAPPENS MORE SO WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING.
