    My instrument cluster has been acting erratic since may 2012. Now the speedometer no longer works. The dealer found the instrument cluster and vent solenoid bad in june 2014. Costing me nearly $800, which i do not have. The vehicle only has 53,000 miles on it when i took it to the dealer. I believe my vehicle should be covered under the gm speedometer recall.

    Speedometer on my 2005 chevy silverado is suddenly not registering correctly. Can register as much as 20 mph to fast or too slow. Does not always occur. First discovered when i was stopped by police going 95 mph, when i thought the vehicle cruise was set at 75 mph (legal speed). I immediately bought a gps and since have noticed the changes are gradual and can easily go unnoticed. *tr

    Tail light housing leaks water into tail light area which causes tail and brake light bulb bases to corrode , lose contact and fail to operate. I replace tail lamps every 3 to 6 months. Instrument panel failed at 65000 miles and despite extended warranty gm would not repair. I was never contacted about gm settlement concerning this factory defect. *tr

    2005 chevy silverado 1500 4wd. When coming to a stop, abs engages every time. This causes the vehicle to stop erratically and sometimes increases the stopping distance. Abs system only engages when almost to a stop, less then 5 mph. I will be replacing both wheel hubs/abs sensors to try to fix the problem.

    I bought the 2005 chevrolet silverado in june 2005 brand new. Within two months of having the truck i noticed that it would not shift properly through the gears, when it would, it lurched. It happened twice in one day. This happened more and more frequently and still does it, however, the dealership that i bought the vehicle from could not find anything wrong. Also, i had other people drive the truck, and they have…
