    Hi everyone,

    I have the same problems reported by many others with little to no dashboard lights and sporadic on/off with those lights. It seems like 30% of the time I can see the speedometer, fuel gage, odometer etc. The center display where a navigation and heat/AC has only illuminated twice over the several months while I’ve owned the car.

    I’ve called a few local places here in LA but the estimates for repair have been more than I paid for the car. Does anyone have any referrals in the Los Angeles area for affordable repair places? From my research it seems like a straight forward fix but I’ve been unable to locate anyone for this. Thanks in advance!

    There's a shop in Rosemead CA, which is about 30 minutes from you. They can probably fix it for a very fair price. Call John there and he'll quote you a good price. Tell him your combination meter is out and needs fixing.

    The shop is called Armstrong Auto Service
