Description of the problem	Speedometer was working fine then started to speed up when i wasn't. It happen everyday. I try to get my cruise set before it starts so not to get a ticket for speeding. Dealer told me to call gm, who in so many words said i would have to pay for the repair, i don't think that a part like this is not like a battery or tires that wear out over a giving amount of time. Gm should fix the problem at no cost to the owner. I have about 46,000 miles on the truck. Just got the prices last week,$400 to $500 to fix. Lets say it's not fixed yet.
