| Description of the problem | The speedometer on my vehicle failed--received notification from gm about a possibility of this type of failure a week earlier- the failure occurred during my commute(60+mi) while using cruise control--although i didn't have a negative experience, i believe this needs to be highlighted as a potential. I can't understand why this isn't an immediate recall versus a "notification". |
