Autometer could have just as easily made the recall, then decide to fvck all the impatient people like you, by saying we are only replacing them with the same model. And everyone would have to wait for them to be manufactured and shipped, which as we have all seen in this industry, could take up to a year.
But NO, they are making it more convenient for the consumer, and are shipping out an upgraded model to replace something they had go wrong. Remember, it a generic gauge and there are probably millions of them out in circulation. Its not just the uptight Mustang crowd from the Corral Modular Forum that they have to make right by.
You are the kind of person that turns these customer service people into the mindless chimps that we hear about. Because all you do is *****, moan, and complain about how YOU got fvcked, and are inconvenienced.
Yeah, not having that GAUGE is going to keep your vehicle from running!
I will wait for the gauge patiently, at least they replacing it for free.
