Description of the problem | Speedometer randomly sticks, or accelerates to maximum. Oil pressure gauges max out as well. Very dangerous to drive with no concept of speed, and also very illegal. When i stop the vehicle, i can turn off the engine. If i continue to turn the key 90% (but not enough to start the engine), and let off, the gauges will drop up to 5%. After 5 minutes of resetting the instruments, the gauges will reset. However, the next time i drive i might be going through a school zone at 40 instead of 25, but my speedometer says 80. Clearly unsafe. |
