The agency reports say "the "3.5" instrument panel cluster ("IPC") contains software that may cause the cluster to be inoperative at start up and/or while driving".  So basically, you are driving blind for navigating the roadway.

The safety division stated that "Failure to display certain information, such as the BRAKE, ESC, and TPMS system warning lights and gear selection indicator, may cause a driver to operate a vehicle in a compromised condition, which can increase the risk of a crash without prior warning. if the cluster were to fail."
