Chevy Tahoe Dashboard


Consumer Complaints & Reviews

The dashboard cracked for no apparent reason on my 2007 Tahoe (garage kept). I have read numerous posts that Chevrolet is not replacing them. This is obviously a manufacturer defect and should be recalled or a warranty should be extended for all owners.

About 1 - 2 months ago, I received a recall notice about my 2003 Chevy Tahoe LT's speedometer. I did not have a problem with my speedometer, so I did not pay any attention to it. As of last week, my speedometer has stopped working. Now, when I am at a stop, my speedometer starts at 120 mph and decreases as I go faster. Considering I can not tell how fast I am going, I am a little worried about my safety. I had called Champion Chevrolet's service dept in regards to the recall. They told me the recall is between 70 and 75. Bring it in so we can scan it. We will have to order the part. I did not understand what he meant by 70-75, but I figured a recall is a recall and they will fix the problem.

Today I took my Tahoe in and the service man told me that I have 76,800 miles on my Tahoe and the service order or special order only covered up to 70,000 miles. He kept telling me that it wasn't a recall. He kept calling it something else , like a service order or a special order. I told him that my SUV cost over $40,000 and is only 5 years old. I also told him that I would be calling GM on Monday and sending them any speeding tickets I might get. Considering, that GM knows there is a problem with the speedometer, I can't believe that mileage becomes a factor. I do not believe that a 5 year old car should have a speedometer that does not work. This is not the first issue I have had with the car. The last issue I had was last summer when my air conditioner went out. I have not had the $2,000 to fix it, so I just deal with the heat and keep the windows down.

I have a 2007 Tahoe. Since I got the truck it has been in and out of the shop. My gas gage floats. The dealership has changed multiple parts and can not seem to fix it. The blower in the air conditioner went out that had to be replaced as well. My service light came on and another part had to be replaced. I would have to say that my truck has been in the shop at least 30 days. The dealership was so quick to sell me the truck, not that quick to help me.

I own a 2004 Chevy Avalanche Z66. It currently has 46,000 miles on it. It is out of original manufacturer warranty, but I carry an extended service warranty. My problem first occurred when the vehicle still had the original warranty from factory, it actually went back to them 2 times under original warr.

The problem is that the dashboard lights and a/c lights do not go on at all. My wife drives the vehicle and has my son with her, and she uses glasses and is a small fraction away from being legally blind. The problem up to this date still persists. It has gone back and forth to the GM dealer (Leo hoffman Chevrolet) 6 times and going in for the 7th time this week.

They keep fixing the problem, but I think that they are just guessing what the problem is and fix it just so I can get my vehicle back. I have contacted GM HQ and all they offered me was a free oil change for the inconvenience. I needed this problem fixed permanently and they knew that. Also, when we got the vehicle back from them the alignment was bad, the vehicle pulls to the side. I love my truck and so does my wife, but we can't be having this problem any more. Is there anything that you can do to help me out?

My wife was driving back home from picking up our son and was stranded on the freeway without any gas in the tank. This would have not happened if the lights were on indicating that the gas tank was going on empty. Thank God that she was almost home and I went in my trusty Ford and gave her some gas to make it to the nearest exit.
