The speedometer started slowly decreasing while on the interstate. It finally got to zero and quit working for the duration of the trip. It did this sporadically for about 2 weeks - sometimes it decreases, sometimes it increases. Now the speedometer, when it works, usually shows 70 mph or higher. It registers a speed whether the vehicle is moving or not. All the other gauges seem to be working correctly. We now monitor our speed by the tachometer. We have not gotten an estimate on repair hoping GM will issue a recall.

I own a 2003 GMC Yukon and it seems to have a problem with the instrument panel. Meaning the speedometer along with the battery gauge. The speedometer works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. my battery gauge works properly sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. I went to my local dealer and without even checking into the problem he told me that I have to purchase a new instrument cluster panel. He said he has had to replace many other ones also. This problem started with the speedometer then it moved to my battery gauge. The problem has been getting worse. It has been going on now for about 8,000 miles. I have 47,273 miles on my Yukon. It started just after my warranty expired.

Yukon 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 56,000 miles
It started this fall maybe closer to winter. But all of a sudden the speedo stuck at about 70 miles an hour. At first I thought it was a glitch but when it happened more and more now I know that it is a problem. The safety issue is there are others out there having the same problem and when you think you are going a certian mph and your really not some might get frustrated with others even though they may be in the wrong. I can just see all the road rage happening because they think they are goind 70 and they are really going 80 or more. I have been watching my tachometer but I dont know what others are doing. This needs to be addressed. Because I am being told that it will cost 600+ to fix. How many of those having this problem are going to spend that kind of money to fix a speedometer?

Yukon 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

Speedometer needle is erratic and at times stays on zero while traveling. Often displays a speed far less than the vehicle is actually traveling. Estimate to replace cluster is close to $1,000. I am finding out that this is a very widespread and well know problem. Recall soon?

Yukon 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 45,000 miles
Speedometer unreliable, drops slowly from highway speed to 0 while still on highway going full speed. Fuel gage also erratic. Service 4WD pops up in display and once vehicle is cut off service message is gone, shows up once a month or so. Steering box replaced once at my expense, continues to make noise and now feels erratic.
