Consumer Description

MY 2004 AVALANCHE STARTED MAKING KNOCKING SOUNDS WHEN TURNING CORNERS - TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND $700 LATER AND A NEW STEERING YOKE THE KNOCK WAS SQUELCHED (NOT GONE) AND THE SPEEDOMETER COINCIDENTALLY STARTED MOVING LIKE A SECOND-HAND ON A WATCH (JERKY) - TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY WANT $525 FOR A NEW CLUSTER THAT THEY SAY IS NOT COMMON - LOOKING ON THE WEB, I FOUND THIS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH AVALANCHES AND THE WAITING LIST CAN BE IN THE HUNDREDS BEFORE ME - IF THIS IS SO COMMON, WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL AND WHY DOES THE DEALER DENY THE NUMBER OF OCCURRENCES? *NM
