Description of the problem | The speedometer started slowly decreasing while on the interstate. It finally got to zero and quit working for the duration of the trip. It did this sporadically for about 2 weeks - sometimes it decreases, sometimes it increases. Now the speedometer, when it works, usually shows 70 mph or higher. It registers a speed whether the vehicle is moving or not. All the other gauges seem to be working correctly. We now monitor our speed by the tachometer. We have not gotten an estimate on repair hoping gm will issue a recall. *jb |
