Eight problems related to instrument panel failure have been reported for the 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Multiple gauges on the instrument panel are malfunctioning. The tachometer is reading 5,000 rpm when the vehicle was in park, and 7,000 rpm when going 15 mph. When I turn the car off the gauge sits at 2,000. The speedometer is clicking up (not a smooth transition to the correct speed). And it showing a lesser speed then I am going. When I turn the car off the speedometer shows it is going 10 miles per hour but will slowly drop down to zero. Both of these malfunctions could are a huge safety concern. I had to pull over on the highway while the instrument panel was showing 7,000 rpm, afraid I was going to break down and ruin my car.
2003 chevy Trailblazer 2wd, ltz - instrument panel is failing. Began with the speedometer, which does not accurately reflect the correct speed 100% of the time.

However, for the same years, the silverado, avalanche were recalled! if it's an issue across chevy trucks, then the Trailblazer should be recalled as well.
