Between the years 2003 and 2007 General Motors produced their pick up and SUV models with defective (recalled) parts inside the instrument cluster. Over time the defective parts, will wear out causing erratic movement of the gauges including the speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, water temp gauge, volt gauge and the optional transmission temperature gauge.
Common symptoms of motor failure are: Dead or sticky gauges, Gauges giving obviously wrong readings, Needles "pegging out"or showing maximum readings, Intermittent operation of gauges and Speedometer that read roughly half or even double theactual vehicle speed. Obviously this situation can lead to potential speeding tickets. Even unsafe conditions if the driver is startled at the incorrect reading while driving. Commonly, fuel gauge failure has led to drivers being stranded along the road as they attempt to measure their fuel by miles driven on the odometer.
If you find yourself with a GM vehicle that has any of these problems you have a few options. First, you can consider buying a used cluster assembly from a salvage yard or "junk yard". Be aware however, you must have the mileage programmed from the dealer and all used clusters will have the same defective parts and will also fail in time.
Second, you can take your GM vehicle to the local dealership. They will replace the entire part with a price tag between $400 and $800 with an extended down time of at least 1-2 weeks.
Third, you can have your original instrument cluster repaired by a professional speedometer repair business (www.RepairMyGauge.com). The best for many GM owners as it requires no re-programming fees, little or no down time and the least overall cost of all the options.
