| Description of the problem | Several months ago i started to notice problems with the speedometer on my 2004 chevy tahoe. It does not register the correct speed sometimes. Seems to be getting worse. There is no specific time or driving condition that this occurs. Last noticed the problem while driving on the turnpike. The speedometer reads 35 when i was actually going over 60. Something really needs to be done about this. I cannot afford to have a new speedometer put in the vehicle at $500. 00. *jb |
