Description of the problem	I am the owner of 2005 chevy silverado 1500 truck. About a month or less ago my speedometer quit working stays on 120 or 0 whether it is parked or while driving it. We called the dealer that we bought this truck new from and the maintenance man said it was under warr up to 70,000 miles which my mileage is 46711. The next day we recv a call saying it is not under warr because of our vin # is not covered. The dealer gave me a # to call gm motors and i have talked with several people there and all are saying the vin# is not good only some vin#'s are under the 7 year or 70,000. I drive my truck to work only,do monthly maint on it through walmart, i feel this is a safety concern for me since i feel it a defect on the truck and either gm or the dealer needs to replace this part@ their cost not mine. They can not give me a reason why only some vin#s are covered. I have checked on the internet and it shows alot of people with the same problem as mine. Hope you can help me with this thank you.
