 Vehicle was vandalized resulting in replacement of 2007 model dual climate control cluster from gm. replacement part superseded 2007 model for the 2008 model, as the 2008 model is better design. the 2008 model however has a different color backlight display, resulting in uncontigous lighting on the interior. resulting in further deterioration of vehicle value. gm specifications fail to recognize the difference in lighting color, and are unable to replicate the 2007 climate control cluster. still waiting for solution to this problem after 6 weeks of working with gm corporate, and local dealership. *tr

 Tl*the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet tahoe. the contact stated that the instrument panel lights would not illuminate when the daytime running lights were activated. the only time he was able to see the instrument panel lights was when the sun shined on them directly. the contact took the vehicle to the dealer, but they could not offer any assistance. the manufacturer also stated that they could not assist because the vehicle was designed in that manner; however, the design was changed on the 2008 vehicles. the current mileage was 9,090 and failure mileage was approximately 5.update 09/10/08 *cw updated 09/17/08. *jb
