| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On october 27th, the speedometer on my 2004 chevy tahoe began to stop working. my vehicle has 49k miles on it. the speedometer gets stuck at various points and will peg out at over 120. on many occasions, it will not come off of zero. if you turn the car off and restart it, it will drop the needle about 5 mph, but will never zero itself back out. i called the dealership (bill heard chevrolet, collierville, tn) the day that it occurred. i was advised that this was a common occurrence and was a problem with the instrument panel cluster. i was also advised that it would cost around $600-$700 to repair. after doing some research, i have discovered that this seems to be a defect in gm trucks and suv's. it is extremely dangerous! i asked the dealership if there was a recall and was advised that there was not. this is not just happening to me. i truly believe that gm should issue a recall to have this instrument panel repaired. people expect reliability when they invest this type of money into a vehicle and they are not getting it from gm or it's parts. *nm |
