Occasionally, when finished driving and the key is turned towards the off position it will not fully turn back in order to pull the key out. It will shut off the engine but generally stops in approx. the accy position. If you restart the engine and drive a little more it has then backed all the way off and been able to remove the key. (It has been ongoing for some time but my father has been just dealing with it.)

While driving my headlights keep randomly shutting off while driving on the highway. When I try to turn the knob to turn them back on nothing happens. I have to turn the car completely off and start it again. And also when I press my lock button the car starts up with no key.

- Dover, DE, USA

The ignition locks up when shutting the vehicle off. It won't let the key turn the whole way off and locks it in place for anywhere from a minute to 5 minutes. Sometimes if you slam the shifter in park it will release but not always.

In the instrument panel the speedometer goes up to 120 mph and gets stuck. I will be driving at 45 miles an hour and the speedometer will go up to say that I am driving 120 miles per hour. It will be stuck there for several days and then will gradually go back down to where it should be. When it goes up to 120 mph you will hear clicking in the instrument panel. If you bring the vehicle to a complete stop the speedometer might say you are driving 120 mph or it might say 60 mph. The RPM meter will also sometimes show it going up. We have changed out the fuses and still have this problem. There is also some problem with the cruise control. This is very dangerous since my teenage daughter was using this to drive back and forth to college and panicked when this happened. I contacted Chevy and they told me that there is no recalls and it was my problem to get the vehicle repaired. After searching online I have found numerous complaints concerning this same problem and have gotten info that it was due to faulty motor in the instrument cluster panel. It will not allow me to attached the picture of the video or photo of the instrument panel below.

- Muskegon, MI, USA

The speedometer to my vehicle is not working. Regardless if the car is on or off, the needle is always stuck on 120 mph. I have also started to have a problem with the back doors in which the locks are not working with the remote. If I try to unlock, the back doors remain locked. When I do use the remote to lock the vehicle, the back doors will unlock. I have also had problems with the headlights. The seals must not be that great because there is a lot of moisture in them to where now I will have to replace them. My back lights constantly go out as well and at least once a year, I have to replace the bulbs.

Passenger side airbag sensor doesn't go on or goes on and then turns off while in car driving or stationary. Moving around on seat makes it switch back and forth. Looks like this is the same issue from the 2007 recall, but not extended to 2008. Haven't taken to dealership yet, but seems to be a common problem. Was sold to me last month from a used car dealer.

Driver door will not lock or unlock when inside the car. This is a safety issue as I would not be able to get to the other side of the car in order to get out. Window must be rolled down in order to reach outside and open the door. Vehicle was parked and I was trying to open the door with the handle and something came loose and door would not open from inside or with the automatic door lock.
