Instrument Panel problems of the 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe - part 2

I own a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe with 52,400 miles and the speedometer just gave out. The speedometer head is not working. When the engine is off and in park the speedometer still indicates 40-90 mph. When driving the speedometer indicates anywhere between 90-120 mph. I spoke with the dion lloyd who is the service manager at chapman Chevrolet in payson az and he told me that gm would only fix 2003 and 2004 Tahoe's but not the 2005. He said that they had recalled the 2003-204 Tahoes and would fix them but not the 2005. In researching this speedometer failure on the internet it looks like this is a widespread problem that gm should be fixing as soon as possible.

Speedometer needle stuck at 120 mark- so didn't know what my exact speed was. I work in downtown dallas and traffic is pretty bad at most times and not knowing how fast/slow you're going is pretty dangerous. I took it to get fixed at dealership and was charged for this correction because apparently it doesn't fall under any special provision gm is giving and will not recall this issue. Service guy told me that they were only given special provisions on 2003 and 2004 models- and I have a 2005- even though it is the same issue with bad cluster. I tried working with gm to get my $200 refund, but no luck. Service guy recommend to me to keep my receipt in case they do a recall or decide that they will correct this problem- not sure what they are waiting on- more accidents to happen???.

My speedodometer is malfunctioning as well as many other GMC owners. There has been no effort to fix the problem.

The speedometer is broken. After registering wrong speeds for a day (sometimes 0 mph), it finally stuck on 120mph. It no longer works. I contacted the dealer for help with the speedometer and with a problem I was having with inaccurate tire pressure readings and an inoperable second row (middle) seat belt. The dealer said sorry it is out of warranty, but the salesperson said she would check to see if there was anything she could do and call me back. I never heard from her. I can appreciate normal wear and tear repairs. On a two year old vehicle, I expected to replace my tires, not my seat belt and speedometer. At this point, I do not intend to buy another gm product!! I also do not intend to purchase from james wood in denton or decatur, texas.

Was driving on interstate returning from saint louis. Noticed 'speed" kept getting lower and lower. Luckily, I had 2 gps devices in my car, and had to use them to determine my speed, as the speedometer eventually dropped below zero. I pulled off of the highway and restarted the truck, it didn't work. The speed initially showed about 40 mph below my actual speed, and then drifted back down to below zero for the rest of the trip.

I was just driving on the freeway and the speedometer just fell to zero and stopped working. I took it to the dealer by our house and they want $650. 00 to fix it. I have read on the internet that this is happening to tons of chevy Tahoes. I can't afford to fix it now so I am driving a vehicle I have no idea as to what speed I am going. It is very dangerous because you have to guess what your speed is. This should definitely be recalled.

The speedometer is erratic. The needle is jerky when rising, and sometimes the gauge gradually reads slower speeds until it finally hits 0. The problem is usually resolved by turning off the car and restarting, but the jerky needle is always present.

The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that the speedometer was working sporadically and displayed inaccurate readings. He took the vehicle to the dealer and they stated that there was a recall for the 2003-2004 models; however, there was no recall for the 2005 model. The vehicle has not been repaired due to the labor and repair costs. The failure and current mileages were 60,000. Updated 01-29-08.

The speedometer on my 2005 chevy Tahoe no longer works correctly. On 9-21-07, I noticed that the speedometer was resting at 0, as I was traveling down the road. I had approximately 50,000 miles on my Tahoe at that time. Since then, there are days that it works properly, days that it sits at 0, and then there are days that it registers 30 mph while I am doing closer to 70 or it will register 90 mph while I am only doing 60.

My 2005 cherolet Tahoe speedometer is no longer working. It registers much higher than my actual speed even at an idle.

The speedometer is way off, when sitting still it registers 60 mph. , on the highway it bottoms out at 120.

Speedometer is obviously not displaying the correct speed. Going around 70 mph display reads 30 mph, other times going 70 and readout is 110 mph. Internet research shows this is a major problem with class action suits already filed in two states or more.

The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe. Whenever the vehicle is driven at any speed, the speedometer displays the incorrect mileage. The tachometer also fails to display the correct rpm's. The current mileage was 50,000 and failure mileage was 30,000.

Speedometer stopped working at 45,000 miles.
