Bob,
Our last unwanted tripodometer reset was back on 11/9, the morning we left on a 2600 mile round trip from Philly, Pa to Omaha, NE. The tripodometer has behaved itself since that time. We have only driven the PT about 250 miles since we returned from the Omaha trip and therefore have not given the tripodometer many opportunities to reset on its own. I reported the reset to my service manager when we got back. He checked the S.T.A.R. system for updates and it indicated that Chryslers Engineers were aware of the problem and working on a solution and also noted that replacing the Instrument Cluster does NOT correct the problem. I can attest to the fact about the cluster, ours was replaced back in April and we have had numerous resets since then.
Also, we have cloth seats and using a ground strap that drags the ground did NOT help eliminate the static shocks when exiting the PT during the cold, dry months.
