Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON A TRIP TO FLORIDA WHEN AT 65 MPH MY SPEEDOMETER KEPT INCREASING AND PEGGED OUT AT THE 120 MPH MARK. I PULLED OVER TO TRY AND RESOLVE THE ISSUE BUT TO NO AVAIL IT STAYED STUCK AT THE 120 MPH MARK. WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE ALL MY CLUSTER GAUGES WERE PEGGED OUT: OIL, BATTERY, TEMP, AND EVEN GAS GAUGE. I ALSO STARTED GETTING INFO THAT MY AIRBAG SYSTEM NEEDED ATTENTION. FOUR WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT CAME ON JUST A DIFFERENT ARRAY OF MALFUNCTIONS CAME FLYING ACROSS MY DISPLAY. TO THIS DATE MY BATTERY GAUGE IS STILL PEGGED OUT MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, SERVICE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT STILL FLASHES INADVERTENTLY AND NOW MY DRIVERS SIDE HEATER AND CONTROLS ARE NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. BROUGHT IN TO REPAIR SHOP & THEY SAID NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED SO MY COST WOULD RUN WELL OVER $1500.00. RIDICULOUS. OWN UP CHEVY FIX THIS. *TR
