G8 8-cyl

  • 460 miles
Automobile instrument panel is unreadable in sunlight due to reflections and low contrast, darkly shaded dials. For a drivers eye view: G8gt.com/T3593/ scroll down to the fifth post for pictures and feel free to read all of the comments. It is difficult to regulate speed, because the speedometer is obscured. Someone will get hurt trying to read the speedometer, when they should be watching the road. This is a very dangerous combination. The complaint has been reported to Pontiac: Service request: 71-625738422 customer relationship specialists: L.C stevens 1-866-790-5700, extension 42721.
