Forester

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
About 3 years into owning this '99 Forester, the illumination for my gear shifting column between the front seats went out. Cost to repair was prohibitive, so I learned to deal with it. About 2 years ago, the led clock above the mirror went out. Cost to repair $180, so I decided to live without a clock. Last Friday, the led that illuminates the gas gauge, speedometer and odometer went out. Now I have to periodically turn on the cabin light to see how fast I'm driving, how much gasoline I have and how many miles I've driven. What's next? this is ridiculous!
