2005 Chevrolet SILVERADO 1500 Engine And Engine Cooling Exhaust System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	675349
Internal NHTSA #	10227931
Manufacurer	GENERAL MOTORS CORP.
Brand	CHEVROLET
Model	SILVERADO 1500
Model Year	2005
File date	15/01/08
Component	ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Speedometer is erratic. Started at approximately 65,000 miles. Speedometer maxes out, does not work or reads improperly. Dealer informed me that the 03 and 04 models have a recall on the stepper motor but the 05 model does not have a recall. The speedometer does not function properly 90% of the time. Do not know exactly how fast the vehicle is going. Vehicle has approximately 72,000 miles now and the problem still exists. Dealer said that a replacement would cost approximately $500 to fix. Who can afford this after paying for a $35,000 vehicle. Especially after having the steering shaft replaced numerous times, new intake gaskets, catalytic converters, blower motor wires smoked and melted. Just a junky truck for the high price.
