On the 26th of August my 17 year daughter was returning home from school when the speedometer quit working. I have to replace the cluster panel and have found out that this is a very common defect with my 2005 Cavalier. I feel a recall needs to be made on this and those who have repaired this issue should be reimbursed their money and time for non-use of their vehicles. This is a very serious issue that could cause an accident, even deaths.
The odometer and speedometer don't reset when deceleration occurs. Has been going occurring on and off for the past few months with only the odometer. Today was the first incident when the speedometer malfunctioned. I was able to reset the meters by turning the ignition key on and off several times. After doing research, I have discovered that this seems to be a common problem with the 2005 chevy Cavaliers.
2005 Chevrolet Cavalier/power windows malfunction . . . . Owned for 4 months, let the window down one day at a drive-thru restaurant as usual and the window just stopped and never started again. . . Still to this day it is still stuck in the down position. . So now everywhere my family and I go we're at risk of our being burgularized because the car's interior is easily accessible. . The window was an issue when I first purchased the used car thru cars and trucks in morrow, GA and they agreed to fix it and never did. . So called Chevrolet and was told that can be repaired for $120. . Which I don't have. . It's just ridiculous. . Riding on the expressway and weather conditions both pose safety problems to my family and I. . This car needs to be recalled, it's just got too many problems that seem to me as a consumer to be safety violations that are just being swept under the rug. .
Just purchased 2005 Chevrolet Cavalier. . . . 2 weeks as an owner. . . I have pictures of my car parked and the speedometer is reading 40-60mph. . How is that possible? general motors should offer to fix this problem or give every owner of this type of vehicle a better car. . I have no inclination as to how fast I am going on the expressway period. . I feel that I am doing 55 but the speedometer is at 100 or better. . This is ridiculous. . . I'm extremely upset because I am paying a note on this vehicle and am at risk, unwillingly and unpredictably for a ticket and accident because I have unsettling comfort driving due to an unreadable speedometer. . . Someone has to make general motors do something about this. . Oh my goodness. . . I am a single mother of special needs kids who has to get around and this is an issue that I did not forsee when I put down for this car!!.
We have a 2005 Chevrolet Cavalier and the speedometer has completely quit working. Nothing has been done to the vehicle that would cause this to happen. Everything is just as it was when my husband purchased it new. We have not had anything don e to correct the problem.
Gauges on dashboard have failed. All lights come on and gauges fail. Speedometer says I'm going 60 mph when the car is stopped. Water temp gauge is not functioning and the indicator gets in the way off the speedometer indicator.
