| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I purchased 10/2/2004 a 2004 gmc yukon which had about 1500 miles left before the factory warranty expired. the mileage on the speedometer read 31144. since i paid for the vehicle cash i did not purchase an extended warranty. sometime after the extended warranty expired and the safety belt recall in 8/2005 my speedometer stopped working properly and my gas gauge began to stick. when i was advised that this was because of a faulty cluster and the price it cost i've managed to make due and not incurring any more speeding tickets and running out of gas. now that gm has taken responsibility for the faulty equipment where i am able to get this fixed at no charge to me, gm is stating that i have exceeded the 7 year or 70,000 mile limitation. i currently have 92,000 miles on the truck, however, i am not responsible for the 31144 that was there when it was purchased. i feel that the gauges on a vehicle are essential to the safety of that vehicle and other drivers. now that gm has taken the responsibility for the faulty equipment, there definitely needs to be a recall on their vehicles that are noted to have the problem. *tr |
