The instrument cluster completely went blank and stopped working while driving, causing loss of critical information such as speed, warning lights, fuel level, and other vital indicators. This failure significantly impaired the safe operation of the vehicle and posed a serious safety risk. The vehicle is no longer under warranty, and I had to pay out-of-pocket for repairs. I understand there is a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) related to this instrument cluster issue (“Instrument cluster version MID black screen”), which indicates this is a known defect. I urge the NHTSA to investigate this matter to ensure other owners of this vehicle model are aware and protected. Thank you for your attention.

The car easily shifts to neutral while driving. It is an automatic car. If the shifter is bumped every so slightly it shifts into neutral. It happens while traveling slowly or very fast. It has happened to me on a highway as well as when traveling very slowly. It is dangerous and certainly a safety. issue, especially if traveling on a highway. I will include one date on this form, but it has happened many times.
