Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: (1) none (2) instrument panel would go hay-wire. any or all the gauges would be pegged for no reason and then either go dead or start working again. (3) it was "so called repaired" twice under warranty. i was waiting for it to go completely out so they could see what was wrong. it went out for good about 6/20/02. i took it to the dealer and he said it had to be removed and sent back to gm for repair. i got my truck back on 6/28. he told me it would be around 500.00 for the repair. i told him, and he had it on record because i had it "repaired" the 2 times under warranty that i didn't feel that i should have to pay anything because i felt it ws never repaired correctly in the first place. he said the best he could do was charge me around 250.00. i had no choice but to pay because he wouldn't release my truck back to me.....i have found out that there are thousands of complaints about this same problem on alot of other trucks, suv's etc in the gm line. i feel that gm should re-imburse me because i had to pay for a problem they did not fix in the warranty period. *tr
