Description of the problem	I own a 2005 chevrolet tahoe under 70k miles. My speedometer quit working. I found out that gm issued a specials program to fix the instrument panel on 03, 04 and some 05 tahoes if they are under 70k miles. My vin number was outside the lot of approved vin's. I contacted gm customer service and was led to believe they would provide some coverage for my repairs if the gm mechanic could verify that the problem with my speedometer was the exact problem being recalled. After one week of phone messages from gm that they were working towards a resolve, i was denied any coverage. My complaint is lack of ownership of the problem with my tahoe by gm. The mechanic at our local gm dealer verified to gm that my instrument panel was the exact defect that was being recalled. I was still denied and was told by the customer relations department that the speedometer not working was due to the previous owner? This was such a ludicrous statement by customer service. We are now forced with fixing the speedometer at our expense even though it was proven to be the fault of general motors. I am filing a complain with the better business bureau as well.
