Complaint Summary
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Owner Narrative
WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AND MY SPEEDOMETER WAS SHOWING THAT I WAS SLOWING DOWN. MY SPEEDOMETER WILL WORK FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME THEN IT WILL START TO SHOW THAT THE VEHICLE IS SLOWING DOWN. AND SOON SHOWS THAT YOU ARE GOING 0 MPH. AFTER SITTING FOR A FEW HOURS IN PARK AND NOT RUNNING, IT MIGHT WORK. SOMETIMES IT NEVER WORKS AGAIN FOR A DAY. TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE HAD MANY OTHERS LIKE THIS AND THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHY IT IS HAPPENING BUT CHEVROLET HAS NOT RECALLED IT YET. THEY TOLD ME IT RANGES FROM 2003- 2005. THEY HAVE WORKED ON EVERY ONE OF THESE YEARS. THE DEALER TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME EXCEPT REPLACE MY SPEEDOMETER CLUSTER, FOR ABOUT 1000 DOLLARS. WITHOUT A SPEEDOMETER IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND I KNOW THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE. *NM
