My trip odometer continues to malfunction despite being replaced with a brand new instrument cluster. I will park the vehicle, reset the trip odometer to 0. 0, and when I return the next day or several hours later the trip odometer will increase in mileage by itself! for example, the trip odometer will now read 0. 1, 0. 4, 0. 6, 0. 7, or 0. 9. Apparently this is a design flaw within the instrument cluster for this vehicle that I am responsible for discovering, which explains the warranty providing me with a brand new instrument cluster. The Ford dealership claims that the trip odometer is rounding off to the tenth based upon the current tenth that the main odometer is on. I questioned the dealership on the fact of whether or not my main odometer was being compromised? while the main odometer is causing the trip odometer to move without being driven, can the trip odometer cause the main odometer to move without being driven as well? the dealership told me no, but it is possible that this situation could be a two way street, and if it is then Ford is guilty of odometer fraud!!!!!.
