1996 Chevrolet Impala caught fire while in motion.

Odometer display goes out intermittently-dealer service department has indicated the only way to correct this problem is to replace the dash. Sounds excessive for a vehicle with less than 42,000 miles. The water pump leaking creates more of a safety hazard. It leaks onto the power steering belt, causing the belt to slip, causing the power steering to go out intermittently. There is no warning when this happens. Again, this part failing with less than 42,000 miles on a car seems out of line.
