“For over six months, I have been unable to see my dashboard during the day. It is stuck on night mode. This causes the driver to be unable to see fuel gauage along with other warning lights that may be displayed. This is extremely dangerous and could cause unexpected vehicle stops on roadways.

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 2 of 65 reports involved a crash and 2 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation.
