My dash started out with a small crack and continued to get worse. Now my whole dash is about to fall in. When it first happened and told chevy they told me there is nothing they could do.

8 Dashboard Failed problem

Failure Date: 09/15/2007

Speedometer and other gauges failure on 2004 Chevrolet silverado. Started approximately fall last year. Now speedometer is inoperable. Causing me to have to guess my approximate speed. G m finally sent notices to owners of affected vehicles but mine is out of warranty. This seems to be a serious problem posing possible danger to the owners and other drivers. A lot of folks will probably not be able to get this repaired soon enough or at all due to high repair costs.

9 Dashboard Failed problem

Failure Date: 01/05/2007

The speedometer stopped working at 40,000 miles. It make a clicking sound and sometimes works but then drops to 0 miles per hour. I looked online and found hundreds of other people complaining about the same problem. The dealer said there was nothing they could do except take the entire instrument cluster out and send it away for a $500. 00 repair. General motors refuses to do anything about the problem even though it is only out of warranty 4,000 miles. It is a safety hazard because it works sometimes but is way off under the real speed.
