| Description of the problem | The speedometer is not consistent in detecting actual speed driven. Sometimes it will read 40 mph when i am actually driving 60 mph. This is dangerous, as this can cause an accident when driving around curbs. Got a quote from dealer to repair which will be around $500. My daughter owns a 2004 trailblazer and has the same problem.*ak |
