Have taken the car to Chevrolet dealership multiple times and everytime the problem is "fixed" it happens again a few days or sometimes weeks later. First, the instrument panel cluster fuse kept blowing. Seemed to happen when fuel gauge read 1/2 full. Eventually, after many trips to dealership to fix it, it worked for three weeks and the fuse started blowing again. Then, rpm gauge started moving erratically for about a week and then stopped working altogether. Fortunately, this fixed the problem with the fuse blowing, but overtime, my temperature gauge did the same thing, and now my fuel gauge is starting to go. If I drive over 55 mph, sometimes the rpm and fuel gauge will move, but not accurately. When I did think that the problem was fixed for those three weeks, I had taken the car in for another problem. Speedometer/instrument panel lights not working interior lights not working tail lights or brake lights not working all of this happened suddenly when I was driving at night. I checked online and found that the wiring design inside the splicer in the hood compartment fuse box was prone to failure (a lot of people have had this problem). I mentioned this at the dealership and sure enough that is where the problem was. They also said that my other electrical problems had to do with this as well. They fixed the problem, but then three weeks later, the initial problem with the instrument panel cluster fuse was back. I cannot afford to keep taking the car in for the same repair. I have researched online and found that many people have this problem with this car. It is incredibly dangerous to have a car that isn't electrically reliable.
