1 Instrument Panel problem of the 2003 Chevrolet C/k Pickups

Failure Date: 01/11/2008

My 2003 chevy silverado has a speedometer issue that says I MA going 30 when I am stopped. Gm puts out a recall but will only fix it if the mileage is less than 70k. Mine went out at 72k, how convenient. This in my opinion is a safety issue not knowing how fast you are going. If not knowing how fast you are going then why do we have speed limits?.

2 Instrument Panel problem of the 2003 Chevrolet C/k Pickups

Failure Date: 01/03/2007

When the weather gets cold the instrument panel quits working, or parts of it quit working. When the weather gets above 20 degrees above zero the gauges start working. It is a very dangerous thing to have happen when driving. We have contacted the service department to learn this is a common problem with 2003-2003 gm pickup trucks. This is a factory defect according to our service man at our local vehicle repair center. He said he has had several of these trucks in with the same problem. He believes the problem is, when the weather gets cold, the connections retract and no longer make contact. He said he has had to send the instrument panel back to gm and they fix it and return it at a cost of over $250. 00. We purchased this truck new and do not believe this instrument panel should be failing when the weather gets cold. It is dangerous, and very annoying.

3 Instrument Panel problem of the 1998 Chevrolet C/k Pickups

Failure Date: 08/25/2005

Truck stalls when driving at any speed without warning for no reason. Steering has sudden fast jerk to right then we have to over correct to left, hazard lights wouldn't turn off now they are not functional, driver side window has a mind of its own. Wiper fluid motor doesn't work, gas gauge doesn't work it just vibrates really fast. There are wires in dash that have burn marks and other components are melted. Its amazing that this truck even runs! we have spent 1200 on this pile and still haven't even fixed any of these problems.
