Equinox

  • 6,600 miles
While driving at night, moving slowly in a traffic jam on a freeway, the instrument cluster totally went out. The radio continued to work, but the speedometer was not functioning. I continued to drive about 20 miles with the cluster and speedometer not working. After arriving at my destination and turning off the engine for about 20 minutes, I restarted it and saw that the cluster was very dim and the speedometer was only barely readable. As I drove it, the brightness slowly increased. The next morning, the speedometer and the rest of the cluster seemed to be normal. I took the car to the dealer for repairs, they were unable to find the problem since the car was working normally at that time.
