| Description of the problem | The speedometer on my 2004 tahoe does not give accurate speed readings. It said i was doing 62 miles an hour on the highway and i started passing every car on the road. I slowed down and then it never got above 15 miles an hour and i was on the highway. After shutting off the tahoe for a few minutes it worked again. This happens regularly if i drive the car for more than about 30 minutes at a time. |
