The check engine and ABS lights are on. When this happens the speedomitor and Tach well all gauges quit working. This was a rare occurance but now happening all the time. Any suggestions would be very helpful.

Other than she is tired and old trade her in. We love our Van.

The dodge Chrysler website says this is from a faulty clockspring located underneath the airbag. It is on recall.
