2004 Chevrolet Tahoe

MY 2004 CHEVROLET TAHOE HAS A SPEEDOMETER THAT IS NON-WORKING. I CONTACTED A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP ABOUT REPAIR AND IT WILL COST $500.00. I CHECKED THE INTERNET AND FOUND MULTIPLE PARTIES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM REQUESTING THAT NHTSA REQUIRE CHEVROLET TO PLACE A RECALL ON THIS REPAIR WITH SO MANY REQUESTS OUT THERE. AS STATED BY OTHERS, THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE AUTOMOBILE AND WITH MANY OTHERS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM IT SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY CHEVROLET. *TR

DRIVING VEHICLE, LOOKED TO CHECK MY SPEED AND SHOWED I WAS DRIVING AROUND 30 MPH I KNOW I WAS DRIVING FASTER THAN THAT BECAUSE MY RPM'S SHOWED 2000. THEN SPEEDOMETER CHANGED TO 110, THEN CONTINUED TO FLUCTUATE BACK AND FORTH. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON 6-8 MONTHS NOW, TO NO AVAIL DEALERSHIP STATED IN THE PAST NO RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. MILEAGE OF ORIGINAL INCIDENT 60,000-65,000 MILES. *JB

BOUGHT A USED 2004 CHEVY TAHOE WITH 73,000 MILES ON JULY 5TH 2007, WENT ON VACATION 2 WEEKS LATER AND THE SPEEDOMETER GOT STUCK AT 60 MILES PER HOUR AND KNOW IS VERY ERRATIC AND GETS STUCK AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS ALL THE TIME. ALSO FUEL GAGE DOES NOT WORK AT ALL IS BACKWARDS ON THE GAGE SO NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH GAS IS ACTUALLY IN THE VEHICLE. *JB

ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SPEED ODOMETER JUMPS TO 90 AND WE WERE ALMOST STOPPED. THEN IT STAYED ON 0 FOR A WHILE WE WERE DRIVING, THEN JUST JUMPS AROUND. IT IS NEVER ACCURATE. CHECKED WITH DEALER AND THEY REPORTED TO US THAT THIS HAS BEEN A REAL PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL OF VEHICLE. THEY SAID IT WAS THE GAGE CLUSTER GOING OUT AND THERE HAVE BEEN LOTS OF THEM RECENTLY COMING IN WITH THIS PROBLEM. AND THE REPAIR COST IS BETWEEN $450.00 - 500.00 . I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURING MALFUNCTION AND THEY SHOULD REPAIR THESE VEHICLES FREE OF CHARGE TO VEHICLE OWNERS BECAUSE THIS IS UNSAFE AND IT SHOULD NOT BE MALFUNCTIONING LIKE THIS. ITS NOT JUST A FEW VEHICLES WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM ITS ALOT!! *TR

2004 TAHOE WITH WOBBLE IN THE STEERING MECHANISM. CUSTOMER STATES THE STEERING MECHANISM WOBBLED WHILE ON THE WAY TO FLORIDA. CUSTOMER HAD ANOTHER INCIDENT WITH THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL AND CARRIER BEARINGS. *KB THE CONSUMER EXPERIENCED A WOBBLING IN THE STEERING MECHANISM AND THE CHEVROLET DEALER CORRECTED THE DEFECT IN JANUARY 07. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT HE HAD AN INSPECTION PERFORMED IN MAY 2007 AT THIELEN MOTORS WHICH ENTAILED A FRONT DIFFERENTIAL PINION, CARRIER BEARINGS, A RELATED DRIVE TRAIN ELEMENTS AND METAL SHAVINGS IN THE DIFFERENTIAL UNIT WHICH MEANS POSSIBLE DEFECT. THE CONSUMER STATED WOULD LIKE THE DEFECTS INVESTIGATED AND REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE REPAIRS PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE. *TR

AT ABOUT 60,000 MILES THE SPEEDOMETER BEGAN ACTING ERRATICALLY SO YOU COULDN'T TELL HOW FAST YOU WERE GOING. IT CONSIDER THIS DANGEROUS. THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOW USUALLY READING SIMPLY ABOUT 120 MPH AT ALL TIMES. STILL NO RECALL ON THIS ITEM THAT I KNOW OF. AFTER CHECKING A LITTLE BIT ON THE INTERNET, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS IS AN OVERWHELMINGLY LARGE ISSUE FOR GM OWNERS. *JB
