problem #1

Dec 052012

300 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1,800 miles
The contact owns a 2013 Chrysler 300 (N/a). The contact stated that when the windshield wiper switch was activated, the instrument cluster lights around the dashboard would illuminate, impairing the contact's vision. The contact stated that the failure was most prominent when driving the vehicle at night. The contact stated that once the windshield wipers were disengaged, the instrument cluster lights would become dim. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, who advised the contact that the vehicle was operating as designed and there was nothing they could do to reset the brightness of the lights. The manufacturer was contacted and advised that they would leave the issue with the brightness of the instrument cluster up to the dealer. The failure mileage was 1,800. Updated 03/01/13
