Does the 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD have a recall on the speedometer and gas gauge?

Question by Jerry: Does the 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD have a recall on the speedometer and gas gauge?
My speedometer and gas gauge began to malfunction in Janurary 2010. The speedometer works occassionally. The gas gauge indicator, when the tank is filled, goes all the way straight down towards the floor and when about half of the fuel is used, it occassionally will adjust to the proper setting. The Chevrolet service manager stated concerning the gas gauge that it was not the gauge but was a problem within the tank and would cost a consider amount of money to fix as they would have to remove the tank.

Best answer:

Answer by djaca70
Here is an idea, call the dealer with the VIN and ask them if there any outstanding recalls. The service manager is an idiot, it is the float or the sensor.

there are no recalls for either of those on your truck. The speedo. may have to be reprogrammed and the other is your sending unit inside your truck and is pretty easy to fix yourself, although you will have to buy a new fuel pump. If you need help with that just E-mail me.

It isn’t a full blown recall. GM is extending the warranty coverage. See the post below for details.

G M has a serious problem with inst. clusters. I have changed quite a few of these before .Some dealers will goodwill them under warranty because of a known product fault. 2004 seems the worst year for this but I have seen a few other years. Good luck and hope this helps.

HI!

You have NO Cable to operate your Speedometer. it is all electronic ( and i do not mean digital ! ) The Speed Sensor could not be at fault for this type of Problem either!

I have seen this Many Many times in Chevy , Gmc , Buick , Pontiac Etc vehicles. They even will warranty the cluster thru the dealership!!

The Problem lies in the Speedometer Cluster. These Clusters made after 2000 have Stepper Motors to drive ALL the gauges including the SPEEDOMETER ! The Tachometer and Speedometer are the Most prone to failure as they are used the most!

It is best to have the Instrument Cluster Removed and Repaired or Replaced. A junkyard Replacement is ok but make sure you get a guarantee.

I pull at least one cluster a week and repair them for this same sort of problem!

I would charge $ 160 to repair the cluster plus shipping.

I guarantee my work for 2 years.

I hope this helps Good Luck!
