Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“My 2004 Avalanche speedometer and tachometer read completely inaccurate. Example=shows me going 120mph and 3000m RPM with motor off. I bought the vehicle used from a chevy dealer and was told it had warranty remaining. When the problem began last year I was told it was not warranted. I lacked the money for the replacement and have been driving it broken. Now I am finding out through other Avalanche owners that it has been being fixed by dealers at no charge as there have been so many problems. I feel this should be a recall. …”
