Thumbs down 2004 Intimindater Problems

Has anyone had a problem with the front end or stearing in there 04 Monte SS. Also I filed a complaint with Chev over the instrument panel not working. They said they review each case 1 at a time. Has Chev paid for you repair? I have 39000 miles on the car. Already replaced the fuel pump, and now having these other issues.

i've heard about issues with the instrument cluster needing replaced! nothing about the front end or steering, but i'm sure other intimidator owners will hopefully be able to help! good luck with it, it is a beautiful car by the way!!

Yes. No speedo, Tach,or oil pressure gages work. My biggest concern is the steering. Chevy said something about re packing it or replacing. Not sure what it is.Steering arm??????Also sun roof not working. Not having good luck with this car,but I still love it. Kind of a love hate relationship LOL.

What steering problem are you having? Intermediate steering shaft issue? Read through this:

This is a really common W-body issue- easy to fix.
