Cracked Clock LCD

Hello all,

I had a strange problem happen today and I was wondering if this was common. The wife took the car to the store today and all was fine. When she came out of the store and cranked up the car she notices that the LCD looked funny on the clock.

It appears to me that the LCD is cracked. It is a beautiful 78 degrees here so I am not sure what would cause this. I assume to fix this I am going to need a new instrument cluster. If I replace the instrument cluster i guess that will mess up my odometer as well?

I have attached some pictures for reference.


Thanks,
William

Bizarre! The easiest solution would be to replace the cluster. You can have the cluster matched to your existing mileage.
