Consumer Description

WE NOTICED THE SPEEDOMETER AND THE BATTERY WAS LOSING CHARGE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY MULTIPLE TIMES AND HAD ALTERNATOR AND STARTER CHECKED BUT COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THEM. DID NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A CHEVROLET DEALER CAUSE COULDN'T AFFORD IT THE COMPUTER ANALYZING COST. LOOKED UP ON COMPUTER AND IN 2009 THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE "CLUSTER" OF THE 2003 TAHOE AND WE WERE NEVER NOTIFIED. CHEVROLET NOW SAYS THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED. WE DID NOT CHANGE ADDRESSES AT ALL DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. (I ALSO HAVE A FRIEND WITH A 2003 TAHOE AND SHE DID NOT RECEIVE A NOTICE OF RECALL EITHER AND HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS). WHAT DO I DO ABOUT GETTING THIS PROBLEM FIXED WITHOUT IT COSTING ME A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY. IF THEY KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES THEY SHOULD CORRECT THE PROBLEM ESPECIALLY IF SOMEONE HAS A VEHICLE WITH A PROBLEM AND NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE. *TR
