Description of the problem | Last year 2009, while enrouting to town i saw my speedometer needle start crawling up to 100 mph, while i was slowly moving in a 25 mile zone. I could not believe it. Since i had to go to work i did not stop. So now the needle of the speedometer is now stuck in the extreme right of the speedometer beyond the 120 miles per hour level. I talked to some people with avalanche and they told me that they have had the same problem. We need your help. This also affects my safety check requirements when i go to get a safety check up annually. |
