Description of the problem | At 43,000 miles my speedometer got stuck and will not work. At park it reads 80 or 20. I bought my tahoe new with only 10 miles and now it is 3 years old. I called a dealer and he said that should not have happen to a new vehicle. When i am driving down the highway i look and it says that i am going 60 then a second later it reads that i am going 120 and it is stuck. This is not safe for anyone and i have heard other people complain that there tahoe did the same thing. *jb |
