Qualified Chevys

In order to qualify for the special coverage adjustment (Special Policy Adjustment 07187a) awarded in the class action settlement, your 03, 04, or 05 Chevrolet must meet all of the following criteria:

  • Less than 7 years old
  • Less than 80,000 miles (130,000 km)
  • Built within the VIN breakpoints (see below)

Vehicles Involved

Most newer vehicles (1972 and later) have their VIN located on the left hand (driver’s side) dashboard. It should be visible from the lower corner of the windshield. The VIN is 17 digits long, but you will only need to check the last 8 digits against the table below.

My vehicle qualifies for the settlement, now what?

Contact the nearest Chevrolet dealership to schedule an appointment. You will need to provide the VIN and vehicle mileage so the instrument cluster can be ordered in advance of the appointment. This will eliminate the need to keep the vehicle overnight.

My vehicle DOES NOT qualify for the settlement. What’s my best option?

Southern Electronics can repair your speedometer cluster the same day we receive it. We use the new OEM factory redesigned motors (X25.168), not old surplus or motors stripped from junkyard units that will fail again. Repairs include our 12 month hassle free warranty on the entire unit not just parts changed. We rebuild the entire unit, replacing all of the gauge stepper motors and illumination lamps, and send it back better than new.

Sending us your cluster couldn’t be easier. Just follow these simple instructions:

  1. Remove the instrument cluster from the vehicle (video instructions)
  2. Print out a free UPS Ground shipping label
  3. Print and complete our Instrument Cluster Return Form (PDF)
  4. Pack the cluster and return form together in a box (video instructions)
  5. Affix the free shipping label and send it to us!
