Nar 1/15/2003. The instrument cluster failed at a low mileage. The first sign of a problem was the air bag light which had come on and did so sporadically. The problem progressed to the tachometer and speedometer which began moving erratically, to the point the vehicle began stall. The instrument cluster failed again and the mechanic thought the problem was with the ignition. The problem continued and after performing a diagnostic there was a reading that there was a problem with the starter. As of now the problem has not been resolved.
