TACHOMETER NEEDLE FELL TO 0 WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. PREVIOUS SERVICE BULLETIN WAS ISSUED WITH A MILEAGE LIMIT ON THE REPAIR. DEALERSHIP WOULD REPLACE PART, HOWEVER, I WOULD BE REQUIRED TO PAY FOR LABOR HOURS. CURRENTLY, THIS PROBLEM STILL EXISTS BECAUSE REPAIR LABOR WOULD HAVE COST IN EXCESS OF $400. ALSO, SHIFT INDICATOR LIGHT IS NOW EXTREMELY DIM AND SOMETIMES DOES NOT LIGHT UP AT ALL. THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR OTHER 2005 TAHOES, HOWEVER, MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED EVEN THOUGH I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. I CALLED AND SPOKE WITH GM TODAY AND THEY SAID THAT BOTH ITEMS WOULD BE THE SAME AREA AND THAT NEITHER COULD BE FIXED UNDER A TSB OR A RECALL. BOTH PROBLEMS ARE KNOWN TO NHTSA AND GM, BUT GM IS NOT WILLING TO FIX THESE KNOWN PROBLEMS DUE TO A MILEAGE ISSUE. *TR

STRUCTURE
DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE CORNER ABOVE THE AIRBAG. DASH HAS NOT BEEN SUBJECTED TO STRESS / PRESSURE. IT APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY INDIVIDUALS ONLINE. I FEAR THAT THIS CRACK WILL EXPAND AND CAN POTENTIALLY AFFECT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG ITSELF. AS THIS VEHICLE IS A '07 MODEL, IT SHOULD NOT CRACK AFTER LESS THAN 5 YEARS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. *TR
