Anyone ever have this problem? Dealer said they see it all the time. I think they are full of chit.

Paul they are trying to screw you...the instrument clusters are another "common failure" issue. GM had a special policy coverage on those also but it was very limited in terms of time and mileage.
When a dealer orders a cluster they come from a supplier which remanufactures them. You can't buy a "new" one. We sell them reman clusters at $295.00 , and up to an hour and a half to install and program them so your total including MA tax would be $463.00.
