| Description of the problem | The speedometer works fine sometimes but some other times it starts off at about 35 mph and counts up from there. It is hard to figure out what speed you are going and i am really afraid of getting a speeding ticket or going to slow and causing an accident. I think this needs to be looked into so maybe we can prevent future major problems. Also a number of friends have had the same problems with gauges in their chevrolet vehicles. *jb |
