I had left the store the other day, and my dashboard indicator lights were flashing on and off. Also, my gauges were moving around, and my indicator screen would keep saying "TRAC OFF" and "PWR STR" and then show my mileage, but then shut off. It almost seems like it keeps restarting. Although, my fuel gauge stays at empty and never seems to move. I just put gas in two days ago so I know I'm safe. My headlights do not flash and I don't notice any problems with the performance of the car. It just seems to be the dash lights and gauges.

The first thing to do would be to get the trouble codes pulled. Any Advance Auto or Auto Zone will do this for free.
