FUEL GAUGE INVERSES. THE FUEL GAUGE METER LIGHTS UPSIDE DOWN USALLY WHEN I WASH MY VEHICLE OR WHEN THERE IS ALOT OF MOISTURE IN THE AIR. I PUSH ON THE CLEAR PLASTIC TO FIX BUT IT GOES RIGHT BACK IN THE WRONG POSSITION AGAIN. IT IS VERY ANOYING.

THIS CAR WAS INVOLVED IN A ONE CAR ACCIDENT SEVERE ENOUGH TO DEPLOY AIRBAGS AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE CAR WITH ONLY A DRIVER ON BOARD WAS TRAVELING 65 MPH ON A HIGHWAY WHEN IT CROSSED THE CENTER LINE AND THEN WAS SWERVED TO MISS AN ONCOMING CAR. CONTROL WAS LOST AND THE CAR HIT THE DITCH AT AN ANGLE AND FLIPPED SIDEWAYS 360* LANDING BACK ON THE WHEELS. THE CAR WAS SERVICED LAST JULY FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL AT BOB HOWARD HONDA IN OKLAHOMA CITY, OK. THERE WAS A POLICE REPORT FILED BY OKLAHOMA HIGHWAY PATROL IN COMANCHE COUNTY. THE HIGHWAY PATROLMAN SAID THAT THERE WAS NO DOUBT THAT THE SIDE CURTAIN AND STEERING WHEEL AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED DURING THIS ACCIDENT. THIS CAR WAS VERY WELL MAINTAINED BY MYSELF AND WAS REGULARLY SERVICED.

THE TPMS LIGHT INDICATOR ON THE DASHBOARD WILL LIGHT UP AT RANDOM TIMES. I RECENTLY CHECKED AND BOUGHT NEW TIRES AND REPLACED OLD TIRE SENSORS BUT SEEMS AS IF THE INDICATOR OR PROGRAMMING FOR THE SENSOR IS FAULTY. USUALLY WILL GO OFF WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. I CONSTANTLY CHECK TIRE PRESSURE AND REPORT S AREN'T FINE.
