2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500hd. Consumer states gauges stopped working and the bolts on the manifold were defective.

The instrument panel(speedometer, fuel gauge, etc. ) is completely inoperable. I've read a ton forums that many owners are having or were(since paid out-of-pocket) having the same problem. Gm/Chevrolet has reported that the cost for repair is $500. Let me also add, this problem isn't in just my particular model and year, but newer models as well. This is huge safety problem being the operator of the vehicle doesn't know the speed of his vehicle.

When I am traveling at very low speed (close to standing still) it displays 10 to 15 mph. At higher speeds it displays speeds that are much greater than the speed that the vehicle is really traveling at.

2004 chevy silverado - the speedometer is not showing the correct speed. My son who just received his permit was driving with me in the passenger seat when we were pulled over by a policeman for doing 20 miles over the speed limit. I was so surprised, I constantly check his speed on a regular basis when he is driving and would never have allowed this to occur. After a nasty ticket. I went home and researched that there is a recall on this vehicle for the dash cluster not working properly. I sent the truck to a neighborhood auto repair shop who ran it on their dynometer and found that the speedometer was grossly off. I contacted Chevrolet and they will not honor the recall because the vehicle has 112,000 miles on it. I purchased the vehicle from enterprise leasing company 1 year ago when it had 101,000 miles on it. So I went to them for recourse and they too will not honor the recall because it has too many miles on it. I am appalled that this was not taken care of before I unsuspectingly bought the vehicle from a reputable company that should have made sure that it was in good working order before they sold it. At the very least no outstanding recalls. Now I'm stuck with a speeding ticket cost and the new dash cluster.

We have a 2004 chevy Silverado 2500hd. We bought the vehicle with 45k miles on it. Not long after, the speedometer started acting up. I turned the truck off, restarted and the speedometer was fine. We now have 100k miles on the truck and the speedometer reads 120mph all the time. This has clearly been a huge problem with chevy, but yet they aren't taking responsibility for the problem. The dealerships continue to make $500-$800 on each incident. We've called multiple dealerships and not one of them will cover it.
