The instrument cluster is no longer displaying vital information. (speedometer, tachometer, odometer, warning indicator lights, etc. ) it still displays turn indicators and headlight indicators. The remedy is to replace the instrument cluster and have it recalibrated.
I am driving on the highway. No construction. No traffic. Cruising. No problems. I get a dashboard warning "wrong way! turn around safely" it was on for at least 10minutes. Very worrisome. But the lane assist was still working.
When driving down a perfectly straight road, if you take your hands off the steering wheel for a split second, the car drifts to the left over the center line of the road. Taylor did a four-wheel alignment, however, the receipt said I told them it was pulling to the right, I specifically told them it was pulling to the left. I have an appointment with them on 6 September 2022 to try to correct their mistake. I am not sure an alignment will correct the problem. Second item: there was a recall of the airbags on this vehicle. This recall was cleared by rusty wallace GMC kia, 300 king avenue, morristown tennessee 37014 phone 423-586-1441. I am concerned about the drifting to the left when hands are lifted from the steering wheel on a straight road. This could cause an accident. What is the remedy for this problem? thank you mahlemama@yahoo. Com dorothea rice car was acquired on 11/11/ 21.
