2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500

SPEEDOMETER FAULTY INCORRECT AT TIMES TO FAST AND TO SLOW OTHER TIMES, ONE TIME IT SHOWED 120+ WHILE CARS WERE PASSING ME ON THE FREEWAY 0 OR SLOWER AT 65 (STAYING WITH TRAFFIC?) NEVER KNEW THE SPEED I WAS GOING HAD HAVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL REPLACED AT A COST OVER $600.00 AT 43000 MILES ON TRUCK 05 CHEVY SILVERADO 2500 HD DURAMAX. *TR

WE HAVE A 2005 CHEVY SILVERADO AND THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING 3 MONTHS AGO, MILEAGE APPROX. 60,000 MILES. WE CONTACTED DEALER AND WAS TOLD WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED SINCE THERE WAS NO RECALL. NOW I GET ON LINE AND READ LOTS OF COMPLAINTS. NEEDLESS TO SAY THE WAY THE ECONOMY IS WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY OURSELVES TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR, SO NOW WE DRIVE IT AND HOPE WE ARE GOING SPEED LIMIT OR UNDER. I THINK THAT GM SHOULD REPAIR THIS PROBLEM SINCE THERE ARE ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHAT KIND OF COMPANY WILL ASK US TO HELP THEM WITH BAILOUTS BUT WON'T FIX THE PROBLEMS THEIR VEHICLES HAVE? *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2005 CHEVY 2500HD 4X4 GAVE OUT AT ABOUT 27000 MILES TWO MONTHS AGO. WE WERE PULLING A TRAILER ON MOUNTAIN ROADS AT THE TIME. KNOWING YOUR SPEED IN THE MOUNTAINS IS IMPORTANT AND THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A DEADLY PROBLEM. GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND I UNDERSTAND DID A "SPECIAL POLICY" ON 2003 AND 2004 VEHICLES. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AND THE DEFECTIVE PARTS FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED. PLEASE HELP US OUT AND DO NOT LET THIS FAULTY EQUIPMENT GAME CONTINUE JUST TO MAKE OR SAVE GM MONEY AT BUYERS EXPENSE AND SAFETY. *TR

BOUGHT 2005- 2500 4X4 CHEVY. SILVERADO 4 DOOR TRUCK NEW FROM HERNDONS CHEVY. IN ORANGE,VA. SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT IT I STARTED HEARING A KNOCK WHEN I STOP OR TAKE OFF OR ACCELERATE AFTER SLOWING DOWN. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS SOMEWHERE IN THE TRANSMISSION AREA. IT DID NOT DO IT ALL THE TIME AND THE KNOCK WAS NOT REAL LOUD. HERNDONS HAS CHECKED IT SEVERAL TIMES AND SAYS IT IS A SLIPPAGE AND IS NORMAL. IT NOW HAS GOTTEN MUCH LOUDER. IT IS NON STOP NOW. EVERYTIME YOU ACCELERATE FROM A SLOWED DOWN OR STOPPED POSITION AND IT CAN BE HEARD FROM PEOPLE STANDING OUT AWAY FROM THE TRUCK. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED. I AM GOING TO TAKE IT BACK TO HERNDONS NEXT WEEK BUT I BOUGHT THEY WILL SAY IT IS ANYTHING WRONG AS BEFORE. I HAVE NEVER HEARD A VEHICLE SOUND LIKE THIS. IT IS EMBARRASSING TO DRIVE. IT HAS APPROX. 34000 MILES ON IT NOW,BUT THE PROBLEM BEGAN A FEW YEARS BACK. HERNDON SHOULD HAVE IT DOCUMENTED. VIN# IS . ALSO RIGHT AFTER I GOT THE TRUCK I STARTED IT UP AND BACKED IT TO MY SHOP CUT IT OFF. STARTED IT BACK UP PUT IT IN DRIVE AND IT WENT BACKWARDS. CUT IT OFF-RESTARTED IT PUT IT IN DRIVE WOULD NOT MOVE-PUT IT IN REVERSE-WOULD NOT MOVE. CUT IT OFF-CALLED HERNDONS THEY CAME OUT -I STARTED IT BACK UP AND IT MOVED LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSE TOO. IT DID IT ONCE AFTER THAT WAS A GOOD WHILE LONGER. BUT INSTEAD OF NOT MOVING IT HESITATED FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE IT MOVED. HERNDONS CHECKED IT BUT COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. SO FAR IT HASN'T HAPPENED AGAIN. I KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS TRUCK. THE LOUD KNOCK IS NOT NORMAL FOR ANY VEHICLE. I AM AFRAID THAT SOMETHING IS GOING TO BREAK LOOSE AND I AM GOING TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM AND SEE IF THERE HAS BEEN ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS LIKE MINE. *TR

SPEEDOMETER WORKED INTERMITTENTLY FOR PAST YEAR AND NOW HAS QUIT COMPLETELY. IT REGISTERS 120+. GM IS REPLACING SPEEDOMETERS WITH THIS PROBLEM UP TO 70-80K MILES I HAVE 92,000 AND HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS NOT COVERED, AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AND MULTIPLE INCIDENTS OF 2003-2005 GM VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR
