NHTSA Complaint #10289867 — 2004 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500

2004 CHEVY SILVERADO 2500 HD I HAD SPEEDOMETER ISSUES PRIOR TO THE WARRANTY GOING OUT. AT THE TIME I INITIALLY NOTICED THE ISSUE IT WAS TAKEN IN FOR EVALUATION AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS GOING TO BE OVER 700 DOLLARS TO FIX. IT WASN'T 6 MONTHS LATER I GOT NOTICE THAT IT WAS COVERED UNDER A RECALL. UNFORTUNATELY BY THEN THE MILEAGE WAS WELL OUT (SEEING I TRAVELED FOR WORK), AND I WAS STILL RESPONSIBLE FOR THE BILL. I FEEL ITS A VERY UNFAIR PROCESS IN WHICH I WAS TOLD IT WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY AND THEN HAD THINGS GONE AT A FASTER RATE AT THAT TIME, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED. I STILL HAVE THIS ISSUE AS DO MANY OTHERS.. SHOULDN'T IT STILL BE COVERED NO MATTER THE MILES? IT'S STILL SAFETY AFFILIATED! *TR
