CarComplaints.com Notes: Widespread instrument panel failure is a common and frustrating reality for many 2004-2005 Chevy Cavalier owners. They're often left in the dark when it comes to knowing how fast they're going, what their engine temperature is, or even how much fuel they have left in the tank.
The likely culprit is a series of bad "stepper motors" which control the gauges and are no longer covered under warranty. Think not being able to see your speed is a safety issue and should be recalled for all owners? We'd agree. Trouble is, apparently the NHTSA does not.

My check engine light is staying on. I know its just a dummy light but my odometer reading is twitching and my car seems to be bogging down quite often, I'm not sure if that light has something to do with these problems or not, I know that the car is totally tuned up because I do a tune up every 3-4 months to ensure that my car is running good, however it runs kinda poorly at this point and time!!!
