| Description of the problem | 2004 chevy tahoe speedometer sticks at various speed levels and intermittently will not return to zero when the vehicle is not in motion. Speedometer can stick at excessive speeds indicated on the cluster, this had intermittently effected the cruise control operation. This was a known issue by gm, no recall was provided. My vehicle is over 80,000 (82,500) miles. Issue started with my vehicle at about 78k, but was not brought in by me to gm because there was not an announced recall. Gm decided to replace the clusters for customers who had the defect occur between 70 and 80k, with a charge for the labor, not the part. Given the fact this is a safety issue (speed indication and intermittent cruise control, gm should provide full replacement, parts and labor. |
