Apparently, GM nor the NHTSA think losing your gauges is considered a safety hazard. I strongly disagree! Try driving without knowing how fast you are going or how much fuel you have to get you there particularly in heavy traffic or in inclement weather! GM has known about this problem for over a decade as it has occurred in nearly every full size pickup they have made since 1988.
The dealer will charge anywhere from $600-1500 to fix this and all they do is send it to a speedometer repair shop where new gauges are soldered back on the circuit board. A friend who worked at a GM dealership put us in touch with the shop they use in Richmond, VA which happens to be about an hour away from us. Taking the cluster out is a cinch, maybe 15 minutes. The repair at the shop only took a couple hours and I was able to pick it up and had it reinstalled in another 15 minutes. Total cost $136 and guaranteed for 1 year.
The dealerships would only warranty the repair for 30 days which was odd since they would have had the same 1 year warranty from the Speedo shop. I don't trust the big auto industry, they have become way to greedy and have total disregard for the safety of the people driving their automobiles.
